Description
No parsimony used means no parsimony approach has been applied generating the protein list. Strict parsimony used should be indicated if parsimony is the only consideration used to report proteins. Parsimony with additional considerations used should be indicated if additional information such as quantitation information is used to influence which proteins are reported, or if some additional proteins are reported for other reasons, such as a desire to report one protein from each gene to which any matched peptide maps.
In workflows where proteins are not separated to any degree, or in which protein separation information is not used in the protein inference, this will have a value of No intact protein separation for protein inference”, as will be the case in strictly bottom up proteomics. At the other limit, Nearly complete isolation should be indicated when separation of intact proteins is conducted and relied upon for protein inference, as is common in multi dimensional gel-based work. The Partial isolation for protein inference value should be specified for cases where some level of protein isolation is used – for example, if a sizing column is used to separate intact proteins into fractions or in the common GeLC-MS workflow where 1D gel separation is followed by bottom up analysis of the gel slices.
In the context of a parsimony approach, an inference tool can either attempt to report multiple protein forms by determining if there is adequate evidence to support the detection of more than one isoform in a cluster (most common), or alternately the tool could prevent this differentiation process and maximally group instead.
Used for reporting whether ambiguity is reported i.e. if true PAGs may contain one or more PDHs, if false, each PAG must contain only one PDH (no attempt to report ambiguity).

ProteinDetection Protocol Threshold applied to Peptides ProteinDetection Protocol Multiple matches per spectrum are considered “true”, “false” “true”, “false” ProteinDetection Protocol “Spectrum-centric parsimony Minimization”, “Sequence-centric parsimony minimization”, “Sequence-centric parsimony minimization with additional rules”, “No parsimony minimization”
Parent term: Parsimony Minimization Method
SHOULD SHOULD SHOULD Set to true if thresholds are applied to PSMs or peptide level prior to protein inference. If thresholds have been applied, these should be reported under ProteinDetectionProtocol->Threshold using appropriate CV terms.
This should be set to false for protein inference approaches that limit to a single top ranking peptide per spectrum for consideration during protein inference; true should be set for approaches that preserve multiple answers per spectrum and provide all of these to the protein inference algorithm.
Sequence-centric parsimony minimization means that the inference method has sought to find the minimal set of proteins that explain all the peptide sequences observed, while Spectrum-centric parsimony minimization means the inference approach has sought to find the minimal set of proteins that explains the collection of observed spectra. Sequence-centric parsimony with additional rules would apply if a sequence-centric approach is used but additional rules are used – for example, if allowances are made to compensate for limitations of this approach such as I/L and deamidation ambiguities. No parsimony minimization should be indicated only if the Parsimony usage field is set to No parsimony. ProteinDetection Protocol “Exhaustive list ambiguity modeling”, “Limited list ambiguity modeling”,
Parent term: Ambiguity Modeling Approach
SHOULD In modelling a PAG, in one approach an algorithm can list all known intersection relationships, including accessions that have very limited overlap with the representative protein in the group. Alternately approaches to limit the scope of accessions that are included using various approaches. For example, one could list only accessions that have at least some minimal level of intersection with the representative protein in the group. This CV term simply captures whether the group modelling is limited in some way or is exhaustive in listing accessions.
ProteinDetection Protocol ->Threshold Protein Quality Threshold: MinimumNumSequencesRe quired Integer SHOULD An integer value representing the number of identified peptide sequences required for creating a PDH.
ProteinDetection Protocol TaxonomyBasedPreference “true”, “false” SHOULD In some workflows, one might map identified peptides to a multi-species protein sequence database, but prefer matches to sequences from a particular species.

Description
The value reported should equal the number of PAGs containing a PDH flagged as Representative Protein and passThreshold=“true” A common identifier reported allows multiple PAGs to be linked, for example indicating some peptides are shared between different PAGs.
SHOULD The number of distinct protein sequences among the PDHs in the group. For example, if there are two PDH with different identifiers that have identical full length sequences, the NumberDistinctProteinSequences would be one.
MUST (be present on one PDH per PAG that is counted) The Representative protein will generally have likelihood greater than or equal to other proteins in the ProteinAmbiguityGroup, but this is not required Exactly one PDH within a PAG must be assigned with this label to serve as the representative for the putatively detected protein. A PDH labelled as the Representative protein can have passThreshold=“true|false” i.e. it need not have passed the threshold reported in the ProteinDetectionProtocol.

This provides an alternative means of reporting a parsimonious protein list when ParsimonyUsage=“Parsimony with additional considerations”.

Unresolved issues
•
Are the protocol terms necessary / sensible / overkill?
•
Is there general consensus on the idea that the number of identified proteins MUST be reported
–
and must equal count of PAGs with PDH passThreshold=“true”
•
Is it sensible to have SHOULD rules on all subset/same-sets?
•
Extra terms for relationships between protein sequences
–
Probably these will be removed
•
Mechanism for updating the mzIdentML specifications and validation software
–
