Visualizing Results

The Visualize tab will show some basic plots for your CSMs and/or XLs and/or aggregated XLs.

Note

Please note that the visualizations are heavily influenced by your pre-processing and filtering steps! E.g. filtering for target matches will obviously mean that Target and Decoy plots will only show target-target matches!

  • The Target and Decoy Distribution plot will show the number of “Target-Target”, “Target-Decoy” and “Decoy-Decoy” matches in your results.
  • The Target and Decoy Score Distribution plot will show the score distribution of “Target-Target”, “Target-Decoy” and “Decoy-Decoy” matches in your results.

  • The Crosslink Type Distribution plot will show the number of intra- and inter-links in your results.
  • The Protein Distribution plot will show the top n proteins with the most crosslink evidence in terms of number of CSMs/XLs. It additionally shows the number of intra- and inter-links per protein. The n parameter is controlled via the Visualization Parameters section at the top of the page.

  • The Peptide Pair Distribution plot is only available for CSMs and show the most frequently observed peptide pairs in your CSMs.
