Abstract
A method of constructing a microbial identification database, the method comprising: (ST02) acquiring genome data for microorganisms from a genome database; (ST06) determining whether a criterion is satisfied by the genome data thus acquired; (ST16) for respective sets of the genome data that were determined that they satisfied the criterion, predicting proteins to be expressed; and (ST20A, 20C) constructing a mass-to-charge ratio database including mass-to-charge ratio lists, the mass-to-charge ratio lists being predicted for the respective sets of the genome data based on the proteins thus predicted.

A method of constructing a microbial identification database, the method comprising:
- acquiring genome data for microorganisms from a genome database;
- determining whether a criterion is satisfied by the genome data thus acquired;
- for respective sets of the genome data that were determined that they satisfied the criterion, predicting proteins to be expressed;
- and
- constructing a mass-to-charge ratio database including mass-to-charge ratio lists, the mass-to-charge ratio lists being predicted for the respective sets of the genome data based on the proteins thus predicted.
An apparatus configured to construct a microbial identification database by using genome data for microorganisms acquired from a genome database, the apparatus comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a storage unit, wherein
- the processor is configured to
- determine whether a criterion is satisfied by the genome data thus acquired,
- for respective sets of the genome data that were determined that they satisfied the criterion, predict proteins to be expressed,
- construct a mass-to-charge ratio database including mass-to-charge ratio lists, the mass-to-charge ratio lists being predicted for the respective sets of the genome data based on the proteins thus predicted, and
- store the mass-to-charge ratio database in the storage unit.
