What is the difference between a deposition session id and an EMDB accession id ?
When you initiate an EMDB deposition, you are assigned a session id (reference code). The session id is a “private” identifier known only to the depositor and the deposition site. When you complete your deposition and submit it to EMDB, you are assigned a public accession code by email. The public accession code is the id you should provide to journals when indicating your EMDB submission; it is also the code by which you can access to your entry in the publicly available EMDB search and atlas pages.
