New OA database of proteins and peptides

ProteinCenter Open Access is a new OA database from Proxeon Biosystems. From the site:
The single protein lookup in ProteinCenter Open Access is a small subset of the full functionality provided by the commercial version of ProteinCenter, which...[enables] comparison of data sets with thousands of proteins in minutes, with advanced clustering and filtering to quickly reach biological conclusions....ProteinCenter Open Access is a free service intended for interactive use - scripting is therefore not allowed.

From today's press release:

Lookup protein accession codes and peptides in a global database with more than 22 million protein accession codes. One single resource for lookup of any protein accession codes and identifiers from: GenBank, Refseq, EMBL, UniProt, Swiss-Prot, Trembl, PIR, IPI, PDB, Ensembl etc, Including many of the outdated accession codes.
