YPED: a proteomics database for protein expression analysis

AMIA Annu Symp Proc. 2005:2005:1111.

Abstract

We have developed the Yale Protein Expression Database (YPED) to address the storage, retrieval, and integrated analysis of proteomics data generated by Yale's Keck Protein Chemistry and Mass Spectrometry Facility. YPED is Web-accessible and currently handles sample requisition, result reporting and sample comparison for ICAT, DIGE and MUDPIT samples. Sample descriptions are compatible with the evolving MIAPE standards. Peptides and proteins identified using Sequest or Mascot are validated with the Trans-Proteomic Pipeline developed at the Institute of Systems Biology and data from the resulting XML file are stored in the database. Researchers can view, subset and download their data through a secure Web interface.
