Protein Length Distributions Across Species with Supplementary Analysis Notebooks

Supplementary data and Jupyter Notebooks from a March 2023 study on protein length consistency across life. The dataset, authored by Yannis Nevers from the University of Lausanne, supports analyses of proteome distributions and Gene Ontology enrichment for long proteins. It includes graphical representations of protein length distribution for individual proteomes.

Use Cases

• Analyzing protein length distribution patterns across different species based on the provided proteome data.
• Conducting Gene Ontology enrichment analysis for long proteins in genomes with atypical length distributions.
• Reproducing or extending the study's computational analyses using the provided Jupyter Notebooks.
• Visualizing protein length distributions for individual proteomes using the included graphical files.

Strengths

• Includes curated and annotated Jupyter Notebooks for reproducible data analysis.
• Provides pre-computed pickle files to skip expensive computational steps.
• Contains graphical representations (PNG files) of protein length distributions for each proteome.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and dataset scale are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified beyond the March 2023 note.
