The Indian scientists working in Bangalore, along with their American counterparts, have mapped more than 17,000 proteins in 30 organs of the human body. Just like the human genome was sequenced around the turn of the millennium, this is an equivalent mapping of the human proteome.

The researcher estimated there are around 20,500 proteins in the human body. These scientists have profiled around 17,294, which account for around 84% of the total proteins. Apart from this, the team also traced around 2,500 of 3,000 proteins that had been categorised as "missing proteins".

The work, done by group of Indian scientists, and Johns Hopkins University, published in the renowned journal Nature ( http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v509/n7502/full/nature13302.html ). Of the 72 people who worked on the project, 46 are Indians.

Common uses of the tool include:

• Displaying the sequence and/or genes in a GenBank flat file.
• Highlighting differences and/or similarities in gene content between related organisms.
• Comparing SNPs and indels between closely-related strains or serovars.
• Comparing gene expression values across multiple samples or timepoints.
• Visualizing coverage plots of RNA-Seq read alignments.

Key Features

Circleator...

• Builds on BioPerl and the input file formats that it supports, including:
  • GenBank flat files, GFF, FASTA
• Accepts a number of other commonly-used datatypes and file formats:
  • BSR and TRF output, SAM/BAM files, VCF-encoded SNPs, tab-delimited files
• Outputs publication-ready figures in the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format.
• Requires only a single configuration file whose layout mirrors that of the figure itself.
  • Predefined configuration files and "track" types are supplied for common datasets.
  • Advanced features allow limited analyses to be performed as a figure is drawn.
• Includes an extensive set of regression tests.
• Offers a prototype web-based GUI (under the "Ringmaster" project.)
