Native mass spectrometry and ion mobility mass spectrometry are powerful tools for characterizing protein complexes and other macromolecular assemblies, yet standardized metadata reporting in these fields remains limited. Unlike bottom-up proteomics, which benefits from mature reporting standards and established data repositories, native and ion mobility MS still lack a shared framework for capturing experiment-specific metadata in a structured, machine-readable way. To address this gap, we together with EBI-PRIDE developed an SDRF template for native and ion mobility MS that extends the existing MS proteomics standard for data deposition in the PRIDE Database.
