Plate Views graphs

The Plate Views graphs show metrics for the individual samples in the format of 96-well plates.

The default chart type is a plate grid, which you can change to a scatter plot.

Each plate represents one of the following metrics. Hover over a well to view the value. Alternatively, you can consolidate these data into a single scatter plot.

• Protein group counts — The number of protein groups identified per well.

• Peptide counts — The number of peptides identified per well.

• Peptide quant mass — The mass of peptide in the well as calculated by the peptide quantification assay.

• Miscleavage rate — The fraction of peptides identified as having missed cleavages based on the maximum allowable missed cleavages set in the analysis protocol.

• Oxidation ratio — The fraction of peptides identified with methionine oxidation.

• ID rate — The rate at which an MS/MS scan is converted into a database peptide identification.
