Non-synonymous variations in cancer and their effects on the human proteome: Workflow for NGS data biocuration and proteome-wide analysis of TCGA data

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have resulted in petabytes of scattered data, decentralized in archives, databases and sometimes in isolated hard-disks which are inaccessible for browsing and analysis. It is expected that curated secondary databases will help organize some of this Big Data thereby allowing users better navigate, search and compute on it.
