Hello, Are there plans to enable users to add custom tracks to the UCSC Proteome Browser? If not, can the team be persuaded? :-) The custom track utility is one of the reasons that the Genome Browser is so successful.
One argument for not extending the proteome browser may have been that annotations are ultimately map-able to the genome browser. However, for scientists doing protein biology, they probably really want to see their annotations in the context of an amino acid sequence. For example, in nutrition science, we are interested in proteolytic cleavage sites of specific digestive enzymes, short peptide sequences with known bioactivity, etc, and would like to display these annotations in a proteome browser.
