Institutions

[edit]

Pfam and Rfam databases - Since 2012, Pfam and Rfam have been transcluding Wikipedia pages as the descriptors for protein and RNA families.

RCSB Protein DataBank - In 2014, WikiProject Biophysics persuaded David Goodsell and the Protein DataBank release all Molecule of the Month images under CC BY open licenses.

Journals

[edit]

PLOS Computational Biology and PLOS Genetics - publishing v:PLOS Topic Pages, where articles in those journals are written in a Wikipedia style and copied over after publication in the journal.

Gene - publishing Gene Wiki Reviews, where review articles on gene families in Gene have an accompanying Wikipedia article written by the same authors.

WikiJournal of Science - putting new and existing Wikipedia articles through academic peer review and publication.

WikiProject Molecular Biology is one of the main groups within WikiProject Biology and covers sub-cellular biology. However, it inevitably has plenty of overlap with wither Biology projects as well as several other Science projects.
