DeNovoGUI: An Open Source Graphical User Interface for de Novo Sequencing of Tandem Mass Spectra
نویسندگان
چکیده
De novo sequencing is a popular technique in proteomics for identifying peptides from tandem mass spectra without having to rely on a protein sequence database. Despite the strong potential of de novo sequencing algorithms, their adoption threshold remains quite high. We here present a user-friendly and lightweight graphical user interface called DeNovoGUI for running parallelized versions of the freely available de novo sequencing software PepNovo+, greatly simplifying the use of de novo sequencing in proteomics. Our platform-independent software is freely available under the permissible Apache2 open source license. Source code, binaries, and additional documentation are available at http://denovogui.googlecode.com .

MODi : a powerful and convenient web server for identifying multiple post-translational peptide modifications from tandem mass spectra
MOD(i) (http://modi.uos.ac.kr/modi/) is a powerful and convenient web service that facilitates the interpretation of tandem mass spectra for identifying post-translational modifications (PTMs) in a peptide. It is powerful in that it can interpret a tandem mass spectrum even when hundreds of modification types are considered and the number of potential PTMs in a peptide is large, in contrast to ...
متن کاملA New Hybrid De Novo Sequencing Method For Protein Identification
Tandem mass spectrometry is a powerful tool for studying proteins. However, an open problem for proteomics research is how to accurately identify proteins from the experimental mass spectra. De novo sequencing based protein identification is the only feasible approach for finding new proteins and studying protein post-translational modifications. In this paper, we describe our novel hybrid de n...
متن کاملFast De novo Peptide Sequencing and Spectral Alignment via Tree Decomposition
De novo sequencing and spectral alignment are computationally important for the prediction of new protein peptides via tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). Both approaches are established upon the problem of finding the longest antisymmetric path on formulated graphs. The problem is of high computational complexity and the prediction accuracy is compromised when given spectra involve noisy data, m...

Summary R platform provides some packages that are useful to process mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) data; however, none of them provide an easy to use graphical user interface (GUI). Here, we introduce rMSI, an R package for MSI data analysis focused on providing an efficient way to manage MSI data together with a GUI integrated in R environment. MS data is loaded in rMSI custom format optimiz...
متن کاملShotgun Protein Sequencing: Assembly of Tandem Mass Spectra from Mixtures of Modified Proteins
Despite significant advances in the identification of known proteins, the analysis of unknown proteins by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) still remains a challenging open problem. Although Klaus Biemann recognized the potential of tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) for sequencing of unknown proteins in the 1980s, low-throughput Edman degradation followed by cloning still remains the main method ...
