ProHap enables proteomic database generation accounting for population diversity

Abstract

AbstractAmid the advances in genomics, the availability of large reference panels of human haplotypes is key to account for human diversity within and across populations. However, mass spectrometry-based proteomics does not benefit from this information. To address this gap, we introduce ProHap, a python-based tool that constructs protein sequence databases from phased genotypes of reference panels. ProHap empowers researchers to account for haplotypic diversity in proteomic searches.
