Methods for treating MS/MS data to achieve accurate peptide identification are currently the subject of much research activity. In this study we describe a new method for filtering MS/MS data and refining precursor masses that provides highly accurate analyses of massive sets of proteomics data. This method, coined "postexperiment monoisotopic mass filtering and refinement" (PE-MMR), consists of several data processing steps: 1) generation of lists of all monoisotopic masses observed in a whole LC/MS experiment, 2) clusterization of monoisotopic masses of a peptide into unique mass classes (UMCs) based on their masses and LC elution times, 3) matching the precursor masses of the MS/MS data to a representative mass of a UMC, and 4) filtration of the MS/MS data based on the presence of corresponding monoisotopic masses and refinement of the precursor ion masses by the UMC mass. PE-MMR increases the throughput of proteomics data analysis, by efficiently removing "garbage" MS/MS data prior to database searching, and improves the mass measurement accuracies (i.e. 0.05 +/- 1.49 ppm for yeast data (from 4.46 +/- 2.81 ppm) and 0.03 +/- 3.41 ppm for glycopeptide data (from 4.8 +/- 7.4 ppm)) for an increased number of identified peptides. In proteomics analyses of glycopeptide-enriched samples, PE-MMR processing greatly reduces the degree of false glycopeptide identification by correctly assigning the monoisotopic masses for the precursor ions prior to database searching. By applying this technique to analyses of proteome samples of varying complexities, we demonstrate herein that PE-MMR is an effective and accurate method for treating massive sets of proteomics data.  相似文献

A large number of post‐translational modifications (PTMs) in proteins are buried in the unassigned mass spectrometric (MS) spectra in shot‐gun proteomics datasets. Because the modified peptide fragments are low in abundance relative to the corresponding non‐modified versions, it is critical to develop tools that allow facile evaluation of assignment of PTMs based on the MS/MS spectra. Such tools will preferably have the ability to allow comparison of fragment ion spectra and retention time between the modified and unmodified peptide pairs or group. Herein, MMS2plot, an R package for visualizing peptide‐spectrum matches (PSMs) for multiple peptides, is described. MMS2plot features a batch mode and generates the output images in vector graphics file format that facilitate evaluation and publication of the PSM assignment. MMS2plot is expected to play an important role in PTM discovery from large‐scale proteomics datasets generated by liquid chromatography‐MS/MS. The MMS2plot package is freely available at https://github.com/lileir/MMS2plot under the GPL‐3 license.  相似文献

The identification of peptides and proteins from fragmentation mass spectra is a very common approach in the field of proteomics. Contemporary high-throughput peptide identification pipelines can quickly produce large quantities of MS/MS data that contain valuable knowledge about the actual physicochemical processes involved in the peptide fragmentation process, which can be extracted through extensive data mining studies. As these studies attempt to exploit the intensity information contained in the MS/MS spectra, a critical step required for a meaningful comparison of this information between MS/MS spectra is peak intensity normalization. We here describe a procedure for quantifying the efficiency of different published normalization methods in terms of the quartile coefficient of dispersion (qcod) statistic. The quartile coefficient of dispersion is applied to measure the dispersion of the peak intensities between redundant MS/MS spectra, allowing the quantification of the differences in computed peak intensity reproducibility between the different normalization methods. We demonstrate that our results are independent of the data set used in the evaluation procedure, allowing us to provide generic guidance on the choice of normalization method to apply in a certain MS/MS pipeline application.  相似文献

The identification and characterization of peptides from MS/MS data represents a critical aspect of proteomics. It has been the subject of extensive research in bioinformatics resulting in the generation of a fair number of identification software tools. Most often, only one program with a specific and unvarying set of parameters is selected for identifying proteins. Hence, a significant proportion of the experimental spectra do not match the peptide sequences in the screened database due to inappropriate parameters or scoring schemes. The Swiss protein identification toolbox (swissPIT) project provides the scientific community with an expandable multitool platform for automated in‐depth analysis of MS data also able to handle data from high‐throughput experiments. With swissPIT many problems have been solved: The missing standards for input and output formats (A), creation of analysis workflows (B), unified result visualization (C), and simplicity of the user interface (D). Currently, swissPIT supports four different programs implementing two different search strategies to identify MS/MS spectra. Conceived to handle the calculation‐intensive needs of each of the programs, swissPIT uses the distributed resources of a Swiss‐wide computer Grid (http://www.swing‐grid.ch).  相似文献

In this study, we present a preprocessing method for quadrupole time-of-flight (Q-TOF) tandem mass spectra to increase the accuracy of database searching for peptide (protein) identification. Based on the natural isotopic information inherent in tandem mass spectra, we construct a decision tree after feature selection to classify the noise and ion peaks in tandem spectra. Furthermore, we recognize overlapping peaks to find the monoisotopic masses of ions for the following identification process. The experimental results show that this preprocessing method increases the search speed and the reliability of peptide identification.  相似文献

MHC class I (MHC‐I)‐bound ligands play a pivotal role in CD8 T cell immunity and are hence of major interest in understanding and designing immunotherapies. One of the most commonly utilized approaches for detecting MHC ligands is LC‐MS/MS. Unfortunately, the effectiveness of current algorithms to identify MHC ligands from LC‐MS/MS data is limited because the search algorithms used were originally developed for proteomics approaches detecting tryptic peptides. Consequently, the analysis often results in inflated false discovery rate (FDR) statistics and an overall decrease in the number of peptides that pass FDR filters. Andreatta et al. describe a new scoring tool (MS‐rescue) for peptides from MHC‐I immunopeptidome datasets. MS‐rescue incorporates the existence of MHC‐I peptide motifs to rescore peptides from ligandome data. The tool is demonstrated here using peptides assigned from LC‐MS/MS data with PEAKs software but can be deployed on data from any search algorithm. This new approach increased the number of peptides identified by up to 20–30% and promises to aid the discovery of novel MHC‐I ligands with immunotherapeutic potential.  相似文献

蛋白质组学的基础研究之一是蛋白质鉴定.规模化的蛋白质鉴定通常采用"鸟枪法",即选择一些酶切肽段(母离子)碎裂生成二级谱图,通过二级谱图及其母离子质量鉴定肽段,再推断对应的蛋白质.在鉴定过程中,母离子质量是一个关键参数.母离子是否是肽段的单同位素峰决定了正确肽段是否能进入候选,母离子的质量精度决定了候选肽段的数目.本文从判断单同位素峰和系统误差校准这两个角度研究了母离子的准确检测技术.判断单同位素峰的技术在蛋白质上已有研究,包括电荷判断、单同位素峰判断和重叠同位素峰判断.可以借鉴蛋白质水平的技术研究母离子的单同位素峰判断方法.同时母离子的系统误差校准也有较为成熟的方法.这两个角度的研究有助于提高规模化蛋白质的鉴定率.  相似文献

Isobaric labeling techniques coupled with high-resolution mass spectrometry have been widely employed in proteomic workflows requiring relative quantification. For each high-resolution tandem mass spectrum (MS/MS), isobaric labeling techniques can be used not only to quantify the peptide from different samples by reporter ions, but also to identify the peptide it is derived from. Because the ions related to isobaric labeling may act as noise in database searching, the MS/MS spectrum should be preprocessed before peptide or protein identification. In this article, we demonstrate that there are a lot of high-frequency, high-abundance isobaric related ions in the MS/MS spectrum, and removing isobaric related ions combined with deisotoping and deconvolution in MS/MS preprocessing procedures significantly improves the peptide/protein identification sensitivity. The user-friendly software package TurboRaw2MGF (v2.0) has been implemented for converting raw TIC data files to mascot generic format files and can be downloaded for free from https://github.com/shengqh/RCPA.Tools/releases as part of the software suite ProteomicsTools. The data have been deposited to the ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD000994.Mass spectrometry-based proteomics has been widely applied to investigate protein mixtures derived from tissue, cell lysates, or from body fluids (1, 2). Liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)1 is the most popular strategy for protein/peptide mixtures analysis in shotgun proteomics (3). Large-scale protein/peptide mixtures are separated by liquid chromatography followed by online detection by tandem mass spectrometry. The capabilities of proteomics rely greatly on the performance of the mass spectrometer. With the improvement of MS technology, proteomics has benefited significantly from the high-resolution and excellent mass accuracy (4). In recent years, based on the higher efficiency of higher energy collision dissociation (HCD), a new “high–high” strategy (high-resolution MS as well as MS/MS(tandem MS)) has been applied instead of the “high–low” strategy (high-resolution MS, i.e. in Orbitrap, and low-resolution MS/MS, i.e. in ion trap) to obtain high quality tandem MS/MS data as well as full MS in shotgun proteomics. Both full MS scans and MS/MS scans can be performed, and the whole cycle time of MS detection is very compatible with the chromatographic time scale (5).High-resolution measurement is one of the most important features in mass spectrometric application. In this high–high strategy, high-resolution and accurate spectra will be achieved in tandem MS/MS scans as well as full MS scans, which makes isotopic peaks distinguishable from one another, thus enabling the easy calculation of precise charge states and monoisotopic mass. During an LC-MS/MS experiment, a multiply charged precursor ion (peptide) is usually isolated and fragmented, and then the multiple charge states of the fragment ions are generated and collected. After full extraction of peak lists from original tandem mass spectra, the commonly used search engines (i.e. Mascot (6), Sequest (7)) have no capability to distinguish isotopic peaks and recognize charge states, so all of the product ions are considered as all charge state hypotheses during the database search for protein identification. These multiple charge states of fragment ions and their isotopic cluster peaks can be incorrectly assigned by the search engine, which can cause false peptide identification. To overcome this issue, data preprocessing of the high-resolution MS/MS spectra is required before submitting them for identification. There are usually two major preprocessing steps used for high-resolution MS/MS data: deisotoping and deconvolution (8, 9). Deisotoping of spectra removes all isotopic peaks except monoisotopic peaks from multi-isotopic peaks. Deconvolution of spectra translates multiply charged ions to singly charged ions and also accumulates the intensity of fragment ions by summing up all the intensities from their multiply charged states. After performing these two data-preprocessing steps, the resulting spectra is simpler and cleaner and allows more precise database searching and accurate bioinformatics analysis.With the capacity to analyze multiple samples simultaneously, stable isotope labeling approaches have been widely used in quantitative proteomics. Stable isotope labeling approaches are categorized as metabolic labeling (SILAC, stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture) and chemical labeling (10, 11). The peptides labeled by the SILAC approach are quantified by precursor ions in full MS spectra, whereas peptides that have been isobarically labeled using chemical means are quantified by reporter ions in MS/MS spectra. There are two similar isobaric chemical labeling methods: (1) isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ), and (2) tandem mass tag (TMT) (12, 13). These reagents contain an amino-reactive group that specifically reacts with N-terminal amino groups and epilson-amino groups of lysine residues to label digested peptides in a typical shotgun proteomics experiment. There are four different channels of isobaric tags: TMT two-plex, iTRAQ four-plex, TMT six-plex, and iTRAQ eight-plex (1216). The number before “plex” denotes the number of samples that can be analyzed by the mass spectrum simultaneously. Peptides labeled with different isotopic variants of the tag show identical or similar mass and appear as a single peak in full scans. This single peak may be selected for subsequent MS/MS analysis. In an MS/MS scan, the mass of reporter ions (114 to 117 for iTRAQ four-plex, 113 to 121 for iTRAQ eight-plex, and 126 to 131for TMT six-plex upon CID or HCD activation) are associated with corresponding samples, and the intensities represent the relative abundances of the labeled peptides. Meanwhile, the other ions from the MS/MS spectra can be used for peptide identification. Because of the multiplexing capability, isobaric labeling methods combined with bottom-up proteomics have been widely applied for accurate quantification of proteins on a global scale (14, 1719). Although mostly associated with peptide labeling, these isobaric labeling methods have also been applied at protein level (2023).For the proteomic analysis of isobarically labeled peptides/proteins in “high–high” MS strategy, the common consensus is that accurate reporter ions can contribute to more accurate quantification. However, there is no evidence to show how the ions related to isobaric labeling affect the peptide/protein identification and what preprocessing steps should be taken for high-resolution isobarically labeled MS/MS. To demonstrate the effectiveness and importance of preprocessing, we examined how the combination of preprocessing steps improved peptide/protein sensitivity in database searching. Several combinatorial ways of data-preprocessing were applied for high-throughput data analysis including deisotoping to keep simple monoisotopic mass peaks, deconvolution of ions with multiple charge states, and preservation of top 10 peaks in every 100 Dalton mass range. After systematic analysis of high-resolution isobarically labeled spectra, we further processed the spectra and removed interferential ions that were not related to the peptide. Our results suggested that the preprocessing of isobarically labeled high-resolution tandem mass spectra significantly improved the peptide/protein identification sensitivity.  相似文献

A strategy based on isotope labeling of peptides and liquid chromatography matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (LC-MALDI MS) has been employed to accurately quantify and confidently identify differentially expressed proteins between an E-cadherin-deficient human carcinoma cell line (SCC9) and its transfectants expressing E-cadherin (SCC9-E). Proteins extracted from each cell line were tryptically digested and the resultant peptides were labeled individually with either d(0)- or d(2)-formaldehyde. The labeled peptides were combined and the peptide mixture was separated and fractionated by a strong cation exchange (SCX) column. Peptides from each SCX fraction were further separated by a microbore reversed-phase (RP) LC column. The effluents were then directly spotted onto a MALDI target using a heated droplet LC-MALDI interface. After mixing with a MALDI matrix, individual sample spots were analyzed by MALDI quadrupole time-of-flight MS, using an initial MS scan to quantify the dimethyl labeled peptide pairs. MS/MS analysis was then carried out on the peptide pairs having relative peak intensity changes of greater than 2-fold. The MS/MS spectra were subjected to database searching for protein identification. The search results were further confirmed by comparing the MS/MS spectra of the peptide pairs. Using this strategy, we detected and compared relative peak intensity changes of 5480 peptide pairs. Among them, 320 peptide pairs showed changes of greater than 2-fold. MS/MS analysis of these changing pairs led to the identification of 49 differentially expressed proteins between the parental SCC9 cells and SCC9-E transfectants. These proteins were determined to be involved in different pathways regulating cytoskeletal organization, cell adhesion, epithelial polarity, and cell proliferation. The changes in protein expression were consistent with increased cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion and decreased proliferation in SCC9-E cells, in line with E-cadherin tumor suppressor activity. Finally, the accuracy of the MS quantification and subcellular localization for 6 differentially expressed proteins were validated by immunoblotting and immunofluorescence assays.  相似文献

Determining the monoisotopic peak of a precursor is a first step in interpreting mass spectra, which is basic but non-trivial. The reason is that in the isolation window of a precursor, other peaks interfere with the determination of the monoisotopic peak, leading to wrong mass-to-charge ratio or charge state. Here we propose a method, named pParse, to export the most probable monoisotopic peaks for precursors, including co-eluted precursors. We use the relationship between the position of the highest peak and the mass of the first peak to detect candidate clusters. Then, we extract three features to sort the candidate clusters: (i) the sum of the intensity, (ii) the similarity of the experimental and the theoretical isotopic distribution, and (iii) the similarity of elution profiles. We showed that the recall of pParse, MaxQuant, and BioWorks was 98-98.8%, 0.5-17%, and 1.8-36.5% at the same precision, respectively. About 50% of tandem mass spectra are triggered by multiple precursors which are difficult to identify. Then we design a new scoring function to identify the co-eluted precursors. About 26% of all identified peptides were exclusively from co-eluted peptides. Therefore, accurately determining monoisotopic peaks, including co-eluted precursors, can greatly increase peptide identification rate.  相似文献

The identification of proteins separated on two-dimensional gels is most commonly performed by trypsin digestion and subsequent matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) with time-of-flight (TOF). Recently, atmospheric pressure (AP) MALDI coupled to an ion trap (IT) has emerged as a convenient method to obtain tandem mass spectra (MS/MS) from samples on MALDI target plates. In the present work, we investigated the feasibility of using the two methodologies in line as a standard method for protein identification. In this setup, the high mass accuracy MALDI-TOF spectra are used to calibrate the peptide precursor masses in the lower mass accuracy AP-MALDI-IT MS/MS spectra. Several software tools were developed to automate the analysis process. Two sets of MALDI samples, consisting of 142 and 421 gel spots, respectively, were analyzed in a highly automated manner. In the first set, the protein identification rate increased from 61% for MALDI-TOF only to 85% for MALDI-TOF combined with AP-MALDI-IT. In the second data set the increase in protein identification rate was from 44% to 58%. AP-MALDI-IT MS/MS spectra were in general less effective than the MALDI-TOF spectra for protein identification, but the combination of the two methods clearly enhanced the confidence in protein identification.  相似文献

Although mass spectrometers are capable of providing high mass accuracy data, assignment of true monoisotopic precursor ion mass is complicated during data-dependent ion selection for LC-MS/MS analysis of complex mixtures. The complication arises when chromatographic peak widths for a given analyte exceed the time required to acquire a precursor ion mass spectrum. The result is that many measured monoisotopic masses are misassigned due to calculation from a single mass spectrum with poor ion statistics based on only a fraction of the total available ions for a given analyte. Such data in turn produces errors in automated database searches, where precursor m/z value is one search parameter. We propose here a postacquisition approach to correct misassigned monoisotopic m/z values that involves peak detection over the entire elution profile and correction of the precursor ion monoisotopic mass. As a result of using this approach to reprocess shotgun proteomic data we increased peptide sequence assignments by 10% while reducing the estimated false positive ratio from 1 to 0.2%. We also show that 4% of the salvaged identifications may be accounted for by correction of mixed tandem mass spectra resulting from fragmentation of multiple peptides simultaneously, a situation which we refer to as accidental CID.  相似文献

The dominant ions in MS/MS spectra of peptides, which have been fragmented by low-energy CID, are often b-, y-ions and their derivatives resulting from the cleavage of the peptide bonds. However, MS/MS spectra typically contain many more peaks. These can result not only from isotope variants and multiply charged replicates of the peptide fragmentation products but also from unknown fragmentation pathways, sample-specific or systematic chemical contaminations or from noise generated by the electronic detection system. The presence of this background complicates spectrum interpretation. Besides dramatically prolonged computation time, it can lead to incorrect protein identification, especially in the case of de novo sequencing algorithms. Here, we present an algorithm for detection and transformation of multiply charged peaks into singly charged monoisotopic peaks, removal of heavy isotope replicates, and random noise. A quantitative criterion for the recognition of some noninterpretable spectra has been derived as a byproduct. The approach is based on numerical spectral analysis and signal detection methods. The algorithm has been implemented in a stand-alone computer program called MS Cleaner that can be obtained from the authors upon request.  相似文献

Searching spectral libraries in MS/MS is an important new approach to improving the quality of peptide and protein identification. The idea relies on the observation that ion intensities in an MS/MS spectrum of a given peptide are generally reproducible across experiments, and thus, matching between spectra from an experiment and the spectra of previously identified peptides stored in a spectral library can lead to better peptide identification compared to the traditional database search. However, the use of libraries is greatly limited by their coverage of peptide sequences: even for well‐studied organisms a large fraction of peptides have not been previously identified. To address this issue, we propose to expand spectral libraries by predicting the MS/MS spectra of peptides based on the spectra of peptides with similar sequences. We first demonstrate that the intensity patterns of dominant fragment ions between similar peptides tend to be similar. In accordance with this observation, we develop a neighbor‐based approach that first selects peptides that are likely to have spectra similar to the target peptide and then combines their spectra using a weighted K‐nearest neighbor method to accurately predict fragment ion intensities corresponding to the target peptide. This approach has the potential to predict spectra for every peptide in the proteome. When rigorous quality criteria are applied, we estimate that the method increases the coverage of spectral libraries available from the National Institute of Standards and Technology by 20–60%, although the values vary with peptide length and charge state. We find that the overall best search performance is achieved when spectral libraries are supplemented by the high quality predicted spectra.  相似文献

Many research questions in fields such as personalized medicine, drug screens or systems biology depend on obtaining consistent and quantitatively accurate proteomics data from many samples. SWATH‐MS is a specific variant of data‐independent acquisition (DIA) methods and is emerging as a technology that combines deep proteome coverage capabilities with quantitative consistency and accuracy. In a SWATH‐MS measurement, all ionized peptides of a given sample that fall within a specified mass range are fragmented in a systematic and unbiased fashion using rather large precursor isolation windows. To analyse SWATH‐MS data, a strategy based on peptide‐centric scoring has been established, which typically requires prior knowledge about the chromatographic and mass spectrometric behaviour of peptides of interest in the form of spectral libraries and peptide query parameters. This tutorial provides guidelines on how to set up and plan a SWATH‐MS experiment, how to perform the mass spectrometric measurement and how to analyse SWATH‐MS data using peptide‐centric scoring. Furthermore, concepts on how to improve SWATH‐MS data acquisition, potential trade‐offs of parameter settings and alternative data analysis strategies are discussed.  相似文献

We are developing a rapid, time‐resolved method using laser‐activated cross‐linking to capture protein‐peptide interactions as a means to interrogate the interaction of serum proteins as delivery systems for peptides and other molecules. A model system was established to investigate the interactions between bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 2 peptides, the tridecapeptide budding‐yeast mating pheromone (α‐factor) and the decapeptide human gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GnRH). Cross‐linking of α‐factor, using a biotinylated, photoactivatable p‐benzoyl‐L‐phenylalanine (Bpa)–modified analog, was energy‐dependent and achieved within seconds of laser irradiation. Protein blotting with an avidin probe was used to detect biotinylated species in the BSA‐peptide complex. The cross‐linked complex was trypsinized and then interrogated with nano‐LC–MS/MS to identify the peptide cross‐links. Cross‐linking was greatly facilitated by Bpa in the peptide, but some cross‐linking occurred at higher laser powers and high concentrations of a non‐Bpa–modified α‐factor. This was supported by experiments using GnRH, a peptide with sequence homology to α‐factor, which was likewise found to be cross‐linked to BSA by laser irradiation. Analysis of peptides in the mass spectra showed that the binding site for both α‐factor and GnRH was in the BSA pocket defined previously as the site for fatty acid binding. This model system validates the use of laser‐activation to facilitate cross‐linking of Bpa‐containing molecules to proteins. The rapid cross‐linking procedure and high performance of MS/MS to identify cross‐links provides a method to interrogate protein‐peptide interactions in a living cell in a time‐resolved manner.  相似文献

We describe a new approach for the characterization of a digested protein complex with quantitative aspects. Accurate masses of tryptic peptides in the digested complex were acquired by nano-liquid chromatography Fourier transform-ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (MS). The conditions of the electrospray ion source were alternated to acquire normal and fragment-ion-rich mass spectra concurrently. This, alternating-scan method, which includes no tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), allowed us to retain the integrity of the mass chromatograms and averted missed peptides due to MS and MS/MS switching. Tentative assignments of accurate peptide masses were verified with the concurrently acquired fragment-ion-rich spectra, and the identities of the protein components were established. For each identified protein component, mass chromatograms attributable to the validated accurate peptide masses were extracted, and the peak areas of multiple mass chromatograms were standardized. The standardized peak areas appeared to reasonably reflect the molar ratio of the protein components in standard mixtures. This new approach was successfully applied to the characterization of a cyanobacterial photosystem II complex preparation. A clear difference in the standardized peak areas was observed between the two groups of identified components, namely eight stoichiometric photosystem II proteins and two minor copurified phycobiliproteins.  相似文献

Annotation of the human serum N‐linked glycome is a formidable challenge but is necessary for disease marker discovery. A new theoretical glycan library was constructed and proposed to provide all possible glycan compositions in serum. It was developed based on established glycobiology and retrosynthetic state‐transition networks. We find that at least 331 compositions are possible in the serum N‐linked glycome. By pairing the theoretical glycan mass library with a high mass accuracy and high‐resolution MS, human serum glycans were effectively profiled. Correct isotopic envelope deconvolution to monoisotopic masses and the high mass accuracy instruments drastically reduced the amount of false composition assignments. The high throughput capacity enabled by this library permitted the rapid glycan profiling of large control populations. With the use of the library, a human serum glycan mass profile was developed from 46 healthy individuals. This paper presents a theoretical N‐linked glycan mass library that was used for accurate high‐throughput human serum glycan profiling. Rapid methods for evaluating a patient's glycome are instrumental for studying glycan‐based markers.  相似文献
