摘　　要：Diatoms comprise a diverse and ecologically important group of eukaryotic phytoplankton that signifi- cantly contributes to marine primary production and global carbon cycling. Phaeodactylum tricornutum is commonly used as a model organism for studying diatom biology. Although its genome was sequenced in 2008, a high-quality genome annotation is still not available for this diatom. Here we report the develop- ment of an integrated proteogenomic pipeline and its application for improved annotation of P. tricornutum genome using mass spectrometry （MS）-based proteomics data. Our proteogenomic analysis unambigu- ously identified approximately 8300 genes and revealed 606 novel proteins, 506 revised genes, 94 splice variants, 58 single amino acid variants, and a holistic view of post-translational modifications in P. tricor- nutum. We experimentally confirmed a subset of novel events and obtained MS evidence for more than 200 micropeptides in P. tricornutum. These findings expand the genomic landscape of P. tricornutum and provide a rich resource for the study of diatom biology. The proteogenomic pipeline we developed in this study is applicable to any sequenced eukaryote and thus represents a significant contribution to the toolset for eukaryotic proteogenomic analysis.
