Identifying detectable peptides, known as flyers, is key in mass spectrometry-based proteomics. Peptide detectability is strongly related to peptide sequences and their resulting physicochemical properties. Moreover, the high variability in MS data c...
The diagnosis and prognosis of Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma (PCNSL) present significant challenges. In this study, the potential use of machine learning algorithms in diagnosing and predicting the prognosis for PCNSL based on cerebrospinal...
With the advantage of extensive coverage, predicted spectral libraries are becoming an attractive alternative in proteomic data analysis. As a popular false discovery rate estimation method, target decoy search has been adopted in library search work...
Sodium transporters maintain cellular homeostasis by transporting ions, minerals, and nutrients across the membrane, and Na+/K+ ATPases facilitate the cotransport of solutes in neurons, muscle cells, and epithelial cells. Sodium transporters are impo...
Mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics relies heavily on MS/MS (MS2) data, which do not fully exploit the available MS1 information. Traditional peptide identity propagation (PIP) methods, such as match-between-runs (MBR), are limited to similar run...
Meningioma, the most prevalent brain tumor, poses significant challenges due to its unclear transition from low-grade to aggressive forms, with limited knowledge about grade-specific markers. We have utilized vibrational spectroscopic techniques such...
The first step in bottom-up proteomics is the assignment of measured fragmentation mass spectra to peptide sequences, also known as peptide spectrum matches. In recent years novel algorithms have pushed the assignment to new heights; unfortunately, d...
Immunoprecipitation coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (IP-MS/MS) methods are often used to identify protein-protein interactions (PPIs). While these approaches are prone to false positive identifications through contamination and antibody nonspecif...
Postpartum depression (PPD) poses significant risks to maternal and infant health, yet proteomic analyses of PPD-risk women remain limited. This study analyzed plasma samples from 30 healthy postpartum women and 30 PPD-risk women using mass spectrome...
peptide sequencing is a valuable technique in mass-spectrometry-based proteomics, as it deduces peptide sequences directly from tandem mass spectra without relying on sequence databases. This database-independent method, however, relies solely on im...
