In Table , we provide an overview of tools that have been specifically developed for metaproteomics or have been applied in metaproteomics, either in their original publication or elsewhere. While this table excludes reviews, we would like to highlight the works of Muth and Renard (2018) , O'Bryon et al. (2020) and for comprehensive overviews of traditional de novo sequencing tools, as well as Bittremieux et al. (2024) for an in-depth review of deep learning de novo sequencing tools. corresponding limitations .
