Functional Analysis of MS-Based Proteomics Data: From Protein Groups to Networks.

ABSTRACT: Mass spectrometry-based proteomics allows the quantification of thousands of proteins, protein variants, and their modifications, in many biological samples. These are derived from the measurement of peptide relative quantities, and it is not always possible to distinguish proteins with similar sequences due to the absence of protein-specific peptides. In such cases, peptide signals are reported in protein groups that can correspond to several genes. Here, we show that multi-gene protein groups have a limited impact on GO-term enrichment, but selecting only one gene per group affects network analysis. We thus present the Cytoscape app Proteo Visualizer (https://apps.cytoscape.org/apps/ProteoVisualizer) that is designed for retrieving protein interaction networks from STRING using protein g
