Competing Interests

The authors have read the journal's policy and have the following conflicts: the authors Dorrit Baunsgaard and Johan Faber are currently employed by the company Novo Nordisk A/S, Copenhagen. This does not alter the authors' adherence to all the PLoS ONE policies on sharing data and materials. Johan Faber and Daniel Malmodin received their salary from the European Union project MolPAGE whilst carrying out the work described in this manuscript.
