DebiChem Polymer editors and mass spectrometry packages

The libpwiz library from the ProteoWizard project provides a modular and extensible set of open-source, cross-platform tools and libraries. The tools perform proteomics data analyses; the libraries enable rapid tool creation by providing a robust, pluggable development framework that simplifies and unifies data file access, and performs standard chemistry and LCMS dataset computations.

The primary goal of ProteoWizard is to eliminate the existing barriers to proteomic software development so that researchers can focus on the development of new analytic approaches, rather than having to dedicate significant resources to mundane (if important) tasks, like reading data files.

This package ships command line tools that include idconvert (conversion of MS identifications) and msconvert (conversion of MS raw data files from/to any supported format).

Lutefisk performs a de novo interpreation of collision-induced decay (CID) spectra, providing the user with a file containing all the possible sequence candidates corresponding to the CID data.

massXpert je program pro simulaci a analýzu hmotnostně spetrometrických dat získaných na lineárních (bio-)polymerech. Je to nástupce programu GNU polyxmass.

Čtyři moduly umožňují:

• vytváření zcela nových definic chemií polymerů;
• použití definic k provádění jednoduchých výpočtů ve stylu kalkulačky;
• provádění propracovaných úprav a simulací sekvencí polymerů;
• porovnávání seznamů m/z;

Chemické simulace zahrnují štěpení (chemické nebo enzymatické), fragmentaci v plynné fázi, chemické modifikace jakýchkoli monomerů v sekvenci polymeru, spojování (cross-linking) monomerů v sekvenci, přesné hledání hmot, výpočty isotopových obálek...

mMass is a free mass spectrum viewer/analyzer in which the following proteomics-related tasks can be performed:

• Open raw text, mzXML and mzData mass spectra;
• Define peak lists;
• Powerful mass spectrum viewer (zoom, cursor...);
• Data recalibration;
• Protein-only simulations;
• Online Mascot searches.

The software can be easily extended by additional Python modules. This package contains the platform-independent parts of the software.

OpenMS is a package for LC/MS data management and analysis. OpenMS offers an infrastructure for the development of mass spectrometry-related software and powerful 2D and 3D visualization solutions.

TOPP (the OpenMS proteomic pipeline) is a pipeline for the analysis of HPLC/MS data. It consists of a set of numerous small applications that can be chained together to create analysis pipelines tailored for a specific problem.

This package is a metapackage that depends on both the libopenms library package (libOpenMS and libOpenMS_GUI) and the OpenMS Proteomic Pipeline (topp) package.

python-mzml is an extension to Python that offers:

• easy access to mass spectrometry (MS) data that allows the rapid development of tools;
• a very fast parser for mzML data, the standard in mass spectrometry data format;
• a set of functions to compare or handle spectra.

MALDIquant provides a complete analysis pipeline for MALDI-TOF and other mass spectrometry data. Distinctive features include baseline subtraction using the SNIP algorithm, peak alignment using warping functions, handling of replicated measurements as well as allowing spectra with different resolutions.

The MALDIquantForeign package reads (tab, csv, Bruker fid, Ciphergen XML, mzXML, mzML, imzML, Analyze 7.5) and writes (tab, csv, msd, mzML) different file formats of mass spectrometry data into/from MALDIquant objects.

The GNU R mixtools package is a collection of R functions for analyzing finite mixture models. This package is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. SES-0518772.

The readBrukerFlexData package reads data files acquired by MALDI-TOF MS on Bruker Daltonics machines of the *flex series.

The readMzXmlData package contains functions for reading mass spectrometry data in mzXML format.

This GNU R package provides fficient calculation of accurate masses and abundances of isotopic peaks. It is a precondition for R NITPICK which does peak identification for mass spectrometry data.

This is a GNU R package for the Analytical Chemistry publication entitled 'Estimating the Confidence of Peptide Identifications without Decoy Databases'. The function curveFDR(scores) fits a gaussian mixture model to a score distribution of peptide identifications and thereby allows the estimation of confidence levels based on the false discvory proportion.

This GNU R package provides efficient procedures for fitting an entire lasso sequence with the cost of a single least squares fit. Least angle regression and infinitessimal forward stagewise regression are related to the lasso described in http://www-stat.stanford.edu/~hastie/Papers/#LARS.

This is a modified version of the original lars package by Hastie and Efron, providing a LARS modification for non-negative lasso.

This R package allows reliable extraction of features from mass spectra and helps in the automated analysis of proteomic mass spectrometry (MS) experiments.

This is the NITPICK implementation for peak picking in MS spectra.

X! Tandem can match tandem mass spectra with peptide sequences, in a process that is commonly used to perform protein identification.

This software has a very simple, unsophisticated application programming interface (API): it simply takes an XML file of instructions on its command line, and outputs the results into an XML file, which has been specified in the input XML file. The output file format is described at \fI`http://www.thegpm.org/docs/X_series_output_form.pdf'\fR.

Unlike some earlier generation search engines, all of the X! Series search engines calculate statistical confidence (expectation values) for all of the individual spectrum-to-sequence assignments. They also reassemble all of the peptide assignments in a data set onto the known protein sequences and assign the statistical confidence that this assembly and alignment is non-random. The formula for which can be found here. Therefore, separate assembly and statistical analysis software, e.g. PeptideProphet and ProteinProphet, do not need to be used.

This package ships the library development files.

BICEPS is tool for the error-tolerant identification of peptides based on a statistical regularization scheme. It balances possible improvements in peptide-spectrum-matches by allowing substitutions against the increased risk of false positives. BICEPS can identify peptides containing two or more substitutions as occuring e.g. in cross-species searches.
