The identification of peptides from tandem mass spectra is an important part of many high-throughput proteomics pipelines. In the high-throughput setting, the spectra are typically identified using software that matches tandem mass spectra with putative peptides from amino-acid sequence databases. The e#ectiveness of these search engines depends heavily on the completeness of the amino-acid sequence database used, but suitably complete amino-acid sequence databases are large, and the sequence database search engines typically have search times that are proportional to the size of the sequence database.
