Protein Sequencing: Data Analysis
This facility offers a number of tools for automated and manual searches of tandem mass spectrometry results.
PEAKS
PEAKS is a proteomics software program for tandem mass spectrometry designed for peptide sequencing, protein identification and quantification.
ProteinPilot
Is a commercially available software for automated database searches of tandem mass spectrometry data.
MASCOT
MASCOT is another commercially available software for automated database searches of tandem mass spectrometry data.
InsPecT
An online search engine for analysis of tandem mass spectrometry data. This tool has been developed by Center for computational mass spectroscopy at UCSD. In addition to InsPect this center has developed number of other mass spectrometry analysis tools such as PepNovo for automated de novo sequencing of mass spectrometry data in the absence of sequence database.
