arrayexpress

is a Data Source.

ArrayExpress is EMBL-EBI's archive of functional genomics experiments, holding raw and processed data and MIAME/MINSEQE-compliant metadata from microarray and high-throughput sequencing studies, including bulk and single-cell RNA-seq. Since 2021 it has been served as a collection within BioStudies, and its accessions keep the E-XXXX-n form. It is the European counterpart of NCBI GEO and supplies the experiments reanalyzed by Expression Atlas.
