Unipept is an open source research tool developed at Ghent University. Its main feature is the biodiversity analysis of metaproteomics samples, but it also contains a tool to select peptides to use as biomarker and a tool to compare the genome of organisms based on their protein content.[2][3]

Unipept consists of a web application and a stand-alone command line tool. The web application uses interactive data visualizations to explore datasets. The command line tool contains the same functionality, but is designed for use in automated data processing pipelines.[4]
