All Columns are separated by tabulations.
BioGRID PTMTAB files are denoted by the extension .ptmtab.txt or .ptmtab.zip
The first line of a BioGRID PTMTAB file is the heading line and starts with a hash (#). This line is purely for informational purposes and gives a brief description of the content contained in each column. If you are scripting the use of this file, you can simply ignore it.
The column contents of BioGRID PTMTAB files should be as follows:
