Samples were taken during R/V Atlantic Explorer cruise AE1913 in Subtropical North Atlantic, beginning at the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Station (BATS) of the Sargasso Sea and ending in coastal Northeast US shelf waters in June of 2019.
Related data table and dataset descriptions:
Total spectral counts refer to the total number of spectra with peptide to spectrum matches (PSMs) that matches to each entry within the FASTA sequence database. This approach allows each peptide to map to multiple closely related sequences. In contrast, with exclusive spectral counts each peptide is only allowed to map to one sequence within the FASTA database, and when a peptide is found in multiple database sequences the one with the most peptides mapping (parsimony) to it is selected. There are pros and cons to each approach, where total spectral counts will double count peptides when two similar proteins are compared, and exclusive spectral counts will underrepresent less abundant proteins with shared peptides, favoring the most homolog with the most shared peptides. Considering protein groups with shared peptides or focusing on peptide-level analyses are alternative approaches that could be constructed from these results.
