Genomic mapping of mouse peptide LLEAQIATGGIIDPK using UCSC Blast program

Mouse splice variant M13C2563_1_s386_e8960_1_rf2_c1_n0 was identified with 13 distinct peptides. Twelve peptides matched a predicted mouse protein similar to desmoplakin using a homolog search against the NCBI NR database. However, all 13 peptides were homologous to the human desmoplakin sequence. Of note, mouse peptide LLEAQIATGGIIDPK aligns to the coding sequence of human desmoplakin, but not to the annotated mouse desmoplakin gene.<p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "A mouse plasma peptide atlas as a resource for disease proteomics"</p><p>http://genomebiology.com/2008/9/6/R93</p><p>Genome Biology 2008;9(6):R93-R93.</p><p>Published online 3 Jun 2008</p><p>PMCID:PMC2481425.</p><p></p

Eventually the pattern is expected to show saturation, as most observable peptides will have been cataloged. However, at present there is no evidence of saturation and around 100 new peptides are still cataloged per 1,000 identified spectra added
