Mascot vs FragPipe: Uncovering endogenous proteolytic processing
Studying endogenous proteolytic processing, or N-terminomics, typically involves selective enrichment of protein N-termini. An alternative is to use the standard shotgun LC-MS/MS approach with the unenriched sample, which requires the database search to identify semi-specific peptides. Mascot Server 3.0 includes MS2PIP machine learning models for fragment intensity prediction, which can give a big boost to semi-specific identifications. Recent versions of [...]
Best MS2PIP model for Thermo Orbitrap
Mascot Server 3.0 greatly improves protein and peptide identification rates with Thermo Orbitrap instruments. The new version ships with MS2PIP, which provides fragment intensity predictions. When the database search results are correlated with predicted spectra, it boosts the number of statistically significant matches even with straightforward tryptic digests. CID and HCD models For qualitative work and label-free quantitation, Mascot Server [...]
Tutorial: Selecting the best MS2PIP model
Mascot Server 3.0 can refine database search results using predicted fragment intensities. The predictions are provided by MS2PIP, and Mascot ships with suitable models for common instrument types. This tutorial shows how to select the best model for your instrument and experiment. What is MS2PIP? MS2PIP is a tool for predicting the MS/MS fragmentation spectrum from a peptide sequence, charge [...]
Predicted RT and fragment intensity in Mascot Server 3.0
A release candidate of the next version of Mascot Server is running on this website. One of the headline features in the preliminary release notes is refining results with machine learning, which includes integration with MS2Rescore. Below is a preview for you to enjoy while we are beta testing the new release. What is MS2Rescore? Mascot Server has shipped with [...]
