High-throughput metaproteomics data analysis with Unipept: A tutorial.

In recent years, shotgun metaproteomics has established itself as an important tool to study the composition of complex ecosystems and microbial communities. Two key steps in metaproteomics data analysis are the inference of proteins from the identified peptides, and the determination of the taxonomic origin and function of these proteins. This tutorial therefore introduces the Unipept command line interface (http://unipept.

Unipept web services for metaproteomics analysis.

Unlabelled: Unipept is an open source web application that is designed for metaproteomics analysis with a focus on interactive datavisualization. It is underpinned by a fast index built from UniProtKB and the NCBI taxonomy that enables quick retrieval of all UniProt entries in which a given tryptic peptide occurs. Unipept version 2.
