Peptigram @ Bioware

Welcome to Peptigram, a user friendly web application for peptidomics data visualization.

Peptigram is freely available for academic use. For other use please contact us.

What kind of visualisation does Peptigram produce?

Peptigram produces two kinds of visualisation for every precursor protein:

  1. peptide profile, peptide coverage visualisation with intensity values for every sample.
  2. peptide alignment map, peptide sequences for every samples are mapped to the precursor protein sequence along with other information about the protein and proteolytic cleavage sites.

Every visualisation is interactive, customizable and can be downloaded.


How to use Peptigram?

  1. create a new job and upload your data
  2. create peptide profiles
  3. select a precursor protein to create a peptide alignment map
  4. modify it as you wish

What kind of data does Peptigram use?

Your data

Peptigram only requires you to submit a CSV file the information relating to the peptides you want to visualize (peptide sequences, UniProt IDs, start, end, intensities). Multiple samples can be compared, you just have to add an intensity column to your CSV file, Peptigram will do the rest. Full specifications and more information are available in the documentation.

External data

Peptigram uses ProViz to retrieve data from public protein data repositories (e.g. UniProt and GeneTree). Peptigram also uses cleavage sites from PeptideCutter (ExPASy) and from Enzyme Predictor.
