Exosome protein, RNA and lipid database

Exosomes are 30-150 nm membrane vesicles of endocytic origin secreted by most cell types in vitro. ExoCarta, an exosome database, provides with the contents that were identified in exosomes in multiple organisms.


Perform bioinformatics analysis of your extracellular vesicle data set using FunRich, a open access standalone tool. NEW UPDATED VERSION OF FunRich available for download (12/09/2016) from here

Want to contribute to ExoCarta?

We will keep ExoCarta updated with new exosome studies. We would love to have scientific community participation in any of the following ways.

 Send unpublished exosome proteome/RNA/lipid datasets (it can be made private until published)
 Point out an exosome publication that we missed

Contact us either to upload your exosome data or point to us if we have not added any published exosome study.
