Zusammenfassung	Bayesian proteomics analysis applies probabilistic models to mass spectrometry data to identify peptides, infer protein presence, and quantify differential protein abundance across conditions. By encoding prior knowledge and propagating uncertainty through each step of the pipeline, Bayesian approaches produce calibrated posterior probabilities of identification and quantification rather than simple point estimates, enabling more principled control of false discovery rates and more honest reporting of uncertainty than purely frequentist alternatives.	Pathway enrichment analysis (PEA) is a statistical approach that takes a list of genes or proteins of interest — typically derived from a differential expression or proteomics experiment — and identifies which pre-defined biological pathways or functional gene sets are represented more often than expected by chance. By mapping individual molecular changes onto curated pathway knowledge bases such as KEGG, Gene Ontology, or Reactome, PEA translates long gene lists into interpretable biological processes, making it a central tool in the post-analysis of high-throughput omics experiments.
