# Output Structure

DRAGEN Protein Quantification produces the following key output files in BaseSpace Sequence Hub:

* DRAGEN\_Protein\_Quantification\_\<SW Version>
  * \<project> (if no projects are provided, there shall be one folder titled with the RunName)
    * adat
      * \<output file prefix>\_Step3\_SampleNorm.adat: This file contains the final normalized counts for the samples in this project.
      * csv\_format: This folder contains the CSV version of the ADAT described above.
      * other\_normalization\_steps: This folder contains all raw count and intermediate normalized ADATs with their respective counts.
      * control\_only: This folder contains control-only ADATs that include counts from calibrator, QC, and blank samples only.
    * quality metrics
      * \<output file prefix>\_run\_qc\_stats.csv: This file provides a summary of per sample run qc statistics.
    * DRAGEN Report
* DRAGEN Report: Folder containing all projects DRAGEN report file/s
* Extra Files
* ICA Logs: Folder containing information on ICA logs

## Example of Output Structure in BSSH

The example below contains an analysis configured with two Projects, "Project1" and "Project2". Analysis and outputs are processed for each project individually (check [Multi-Analysis section](/dragen-protein-quantification/run-setup/lane-splitting-and-project-splitting.md) for details).

The final normalized counts file (with suffix "_Step3_SampleNorm.adat") is available for each project and can be used in exploratory analysis.</p></figcaption></figure>
