Clinical Metaproteomics 2: Discovery

Abstract

This tutorial can be followed with any user-defined database but would work best if the clinical metaproteomics database generation module was used (see Database Generation tutorial). The MetaNovo tool generates a more manageable database that contains identified proteins. The MetaNovo-generated database merged with Human SwissProt (reviewed only) and contaminants (cRAP) databases to generate a compact database (~21.2k protein sequences) that will be used for peptide identification.
