About SRA

The Sequence Read Archive (SRA, previously known as the Short Read Archive) is a bioinformatics database that provides a public repository for DNA sequencing data, especially the "short reads" generated by high-throughput sequencing, which are typically less than 1,000 base pairs in length.

There are four hierarchical levels of SRA entities and their accessions:

  • STUDY: SRP, ERP, DRP
  • SAMPLE: SRS, ERS, DRS
  • EXPERIMENT: SRX, ERX, DRX
  • RUN: SRR, ERR, DRR

Accessions can be found through the SRA search tool
