Capability Map

bijux-proteomics-core owns the scientific transformations that turn proteomics inputs into reviewable analytical evidence. It spans the pipeline because sequence chemistry, ingestion, identification, quantification, and interpretation share scientific contracts that must remain coherent.

Capability families

Capability Representative work
Molecular contracts sequence digestion, amino-acid mass, modifications, isotopes, fragment ions, modified peptides, proteoforms
Input integrity FASTA, mzML, MGF, search-engine output, experimental designs, metadata, tables, raw-signal evidence, source-row lineage
Identification PSM features and rescoring, target-decoy analysis, peptide evidence, protein grouping and parsimony, contaminant audits, FDR trails
Quantification matrix construction, normalization, missingness, roll-up, statistics, batch effects, differential analysis, provenance
Specialized proteomics DIA matrices and transition QC, multiplex interference, SILAC, PTM localization and regulation, targeted assay review
Biological interpretation annotations, enrichment, pathways, complexes, protein sets, regulators, networks, tissue and disease context
Review and validation evidence graphs, claims, explanations, structure reports, benchmark corpora, pressure tests, stable exports
Composition CLI and Python entrypoints, scientific workflows, case studies, and flagship result packages

The package root remains narrow despite this breadth: five lazy exports cover digestion policy, FASTA parsing, experimental-design parsing, normalized-run construction, and FDR audit construction. Specialized APIs remain under the family that owns their semantics.

Boundary

Core can calculate, validate, classify, and explain scientific results. It cannot turn those results into durable evidence authority, portfolio recommendation, laboratory approval, or service state. Knowledge, intelligence, lab, and runtime own those decisions respectively.
