Many non-human proteomics studies still search against taxon-filtered FASTAs.
❌ Redundant sequences
❌ Inflated search space
✅ Reference proteomes cut redundancy, improve annotation, and make results comparable.
👉 Time to move beyond taxon filters. #proteomics #massspec #uniprot

When you run proteomics on non-human species (mouse, rat, macaque, etc.) — which protein FASTA do you prefer?
Taxonomy-filtered UniProt (all entries)
Reference proteome (SwissProt+TrEMBL)
Ensembl/GENCODE
Something else?
