A Dynamic Programming Approach to De Novo Peptide Sequencing via Tandem Mass Spectrometry

Chen, Ting, Kao, Ming-Yang, Tepel, Matthew, Rush, John, Church, George M.·2001·Journal of Computational Biology

Abstract

Tandem mass spectrometry fragments a large number of molecules of the same peptide sequence into charged molecules of prefix and suffix peptide subsequences and then measures mass/charge ratios of these ions. The de novo peptide sequencing problem is to reconstruct the peptide sequence from a given tandem mass spectral data of k ions. By implicitly transforming the spectral data into an NC-spectrum graph G (V, E) where /V/ = 2k + 2, we can solve this problem in O(/V//E/) time and O(/V/2) space using dynamic programming. For an ideal noise-free spectrum with only b- and y-ions, we improve the algorithm to O(/V/ + /E/) time and O(/V/) space. Our approach can be further used to discover a modified amino acid in O(/V//E/) time. The algorithms have been implemented and tested on experimental data.

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.
