Show all proteins that match the same set of peptides
Show any proteins that match a sub-set of peptides
Show peptide matches not
assigned to protein hits
Require proteins to include at least one bold, red match
Cluster matches using the UniGene index for this species
Mass values for elements, residues, termini, and variable modifications
The search results
Hits are numbered consecutively, but there may be no hits
Each hit corresponds to one or more homologous proteins
