The paper identifies artifacts in bacterial proteomes by analyzing cluster participation and protein length, finding that short proteins are often errors due to frame-shifts or termination codons.

The paper introduces a method to select Reference Proteomes for UniProt, increasing coverage and reducing redundancy in the knowledgebase.

The paper improves canonical protein selection for reference proteomes by identifying more accurate representatives among orthologous sequences.

The paper reannotates ligand binding sites in UniProtKB using ChEBI identifiers and improves search facilities for these annotations.
