On the Proteins and Peptide Groups pages of the result file, you can display the species names of the proteins and the peptide groups that they belong to as:

  • Distribution maps. For up to 30 species names, the application can assign a unique color for each and display them in a distribution map in the Species Map column.
  • Text strings separated by semicolons. For more than 30 names, the application displays the additional names as text strings separated by semicolons in the Species column.

The application extracts these names from the FASTA title lines of all proteins found in the sequence database search and removes duplicates.

Species names as distribution maps and as text columns

Special Processing Workflow Nodes and Node Settings

No special nodes or settings required.

Special Consensus Workflow Nodes and Node Settings

Use the Protein Marker node’s As Species Map and As Species Names parameters to display species names in the result file.

You can start with a consensus workflow template that contains the Protein Maker node, for example, CWF_Comprehensive_Enhanced Annotation or add it to a consensus workflow.

The Protein Maker node connects to the Peptide and Protein Filter node.

Further Information

For a description of the node and its parameters, see the Protein Annotation node in the Proteome Discoverer Help.
