Abstract

A notable inefficiency of shotgun proteomics experiments is the repeated rediscovery of the same identifiable peptides by sequence database searching methods, which often are time‐consuming and error‐prone. A more precise and efficient method, in which previously observed and identified peptide MS/MS spectra are catalogued and condensed into searchable spectral libraries to allow new identifications by spectral matching, is seen as a promising alternative. To that end, an open‐source, functionally complete, high‐throughput and readily extensible MS/MS spectral searching tool, SpectraST, was developed. A high‐quality spectral library was constructed by combining the high‐confidence identifications of millions of spectra taken from various data repositories and searched using four sequence search engines. The resulting library consists of over 30 000 spectra for Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Using this library, SpectraST vastly outperforms the sequence search engine SEQUEST in terms of speed and the ability to discriminate good and bad hits. A unique advantage of SpectraST is its full integration into the popular Trans Proteomic Pipeline suite of software, which facilitates user adoption and provides important functionalities such as peptide and protein probability assignment, quantification, and data visualization. This method of spectral library searching is especially suited for targeted proteomics applications, offering superior performance to traditional sequence searching.

  • PeptideAtlas reprocesses publicly uploaded MS/MS data deposited through ProteomeXchange using sequence search engines Comet, X!Tandem and SpectraST, and aggregates data using rigorous criteria including peptide spectral matching with FDR ~0.0009% in the latest build to achieve ≤1% FDR at the protein level.

    “PeptideAtlas (http://www.peptideatlas.org) uses sequence search engines Comet66, X!Tandem67 and SpectraST68 to reprocess publicly uploaded MS/MS data deposited through ProteomeXchange (PX).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
