Unipept

The Unipept web application supports biodiversity and functional analysis of large and complex metaproteome samples and the analysis of peptidomes.

The 4.0 release of Unipept brings functional analysis to the tool.

An API and command line tool are available for integration in other programs.

Installation

This application is deployed and fully functional at unipept.ugent.be. If for some reason you wish to run your own instance, you can do so by deploying this rails application and setting up a database. This isn't straightforward and you'll probably want some help, so contact us at [email protected] before you attempt an installation.

Check our Wiki-pages for a variety of different installation guides.
