Summary: | Here we provide all datasets and details applied in the construction of a composite protein database required for the proteogenomic analyses of the article “Putative Antimicrobial Peptides of the Posterior Salivary Glands from the Cephalopod <i>Octopus vulgaris</i> Revealed by Exploring a Composite Protein Database”. All data, subdivided into six datasets, are deposited at the Mendeley Data repository as follows. Dataset_1 provides our composite database “All_Databases_5950827_sequences.fasta” derived from six smaller databases composed of <i>(i)</i> protein sequences retrieved from public databases related to cephalopods’ salivary glands, <i>(ii)</i> proteins identified with Proteome Discoverer software using our original data obtained by shotgun proteomic analyses of posterior salivary glands (PSGs) from three <i>Octopus vulgaris</i> specimens (provided as Dataset_2) and <i>(iii)</i> a non-redundant antimicrobial peptide (AMP) database. Dataset_3 includes the transcripts obtained by <i>de novo</i> assembly of 16 transcriptomes from cephalopods’ PSGs using CLC Genomics Workbench. Dataset_4 provides the proteins predicted by the TransDecoder tool from the <i>de novo</i> assembly of 16 transcriptomes of cephalopods’ PSGs. Further details about database construction, as well as the scripts and command lines used to construct them, are deposited within Dataset_5 and Dataset_6. The data provided in this article will assist in unravelling the role of cephalopods’ PSGs in feeding strategies, toxins and AMP production.
