Theoretical PRM and TPRM Parser

Theoretical PRM is a script for performing theoretical calculations of how specific a selected ion monitoring or reaction monitoring experiment is for a given target peptide based on a confounding "peptidome" and various user-selected isolation and mass analysis parameters. TPRM Parser is a script which organizes and recasts the Theoretical PRM output files in a more usable format. See the ReadMe file for more information.

FluorAid

FluorAid is an application written in C#, designed to seamlessly combine data sets generated from a tandem mass spectrometer and intrinsic fluorescence excitation and detection device. The program requires three input files: an intrinsic fluorescence data file (LABVIEW), a database search output file filtered to a 1% false discovery rate (OMSSA), and a mass spectrometer output file (Thermo Scientific). Intrinsic fluorescence data files are read by the program and are graphically displayed as fluorescence signal versus time. OMSSA-searched output files are used to populate a list box with every tryptophan-containing peptide identified at a 1% false discovery rate. When the user selects a peptide a table displays information about the selected peptide generated from the uploaded OMSSA output including its amino acid sequence, observed mass, charge state, E-Value, spectrum number, and retention time. Simultaneously, an extracted ion chromatogram for the selected peptide precursor m/z generated from the corresponding mass spectrometer RAW file is overlaid on the same graph used to display the fluorescence chromatogram. Graphs are normalized and fit into a 10-minute retention time window centered on the retention time of the selected peptide. The user can visually compare fluorescence peaks with peaks from extracted ion chromatograms to help determine which fluorescence peaks, if any, correspond to the selected peptide. To assist the user with the comparison, a user-defined retention time offset can be used for data alignment. Peak integration and background correction tools have been built into the program to allow user integration of fluorescence peaks for use in quantitative comparisons.

System Requirements:

Morpheus

(updated March 25, 2013)

Morpheus is a database search algorithm designed from the ground up for high-resolution tandem mass spectra. We have discovered that for high-resolution MS/MS, simple spectrum preprocessing and scoring performs superior to more complex algorithms originally developed for low-resolution MS/MS, such as Sequest, Mascot, and OMSSA. Morpheus is also very fast—up to nearly 5 times faster than OMSSA for large human datasets. It is written in C# and is available open source under the permissive MIT License.

System Requirements:


Download Morpheus for mzML

Download Morpheus for Agilent .d directories

Download Morpheus for Thermo .raw files (requires Thermo MSFileReader)

Download Morpheus source code (Microsoft Visual Studio 2010)
