Friends, #FragPipe 22 has been released, and it's a big update! diaTracer enables spectrum-centric analysis of diaPASEF data. Skyline integration. Koina server for more deep-learning prediction options. DDA mode for ddaPASEF. DIA glycoproteomics and new chemoproteomics workflows

It was a great pleasure to teach #FragPipe at the Biological Proteomics for Beginners workshop at #UCSD, sponsored by Thermo Fisher Scientific. We had a fantastic group of grad students, postdocs, and professors. Yes, I even got to teach UCSD professors how to do proteomics 😁

Conventional proteomics searches struggle with many modifications and open searches may be difficult to interpret. We introduce a "detailed" mass offset search in #MSFragger boosting interpretability and localization especially in complex cases like FPOP: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

DDA is still great for many applications, and #MSFragger-DDA improves peptide identification rates via full isolation window search. Huge boosts in IDs, including Astral DDA! Fully integrated in #FragPipe, simply annotate your DDA files as DDA and RUN. nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Our #diaTracer manuscript is out! 10 years ago we established the concept of library-free, direct DIA analysis with DIA-Umpire. DiaTracer now makes it possible to analyze any diaPASEF data, including PTM, semi-tryptic, nonspecific, and even open searches! nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Big news in QUANTITATIVE proteomics! Researchers from @UMich & @MonashUni have launched FragPipe-Analyst: a user-friendly, web-based tool to complement the popular FragPipe platform. Upload files, analyze, & visualize data with ease. #Precisionmedicine proteomics.cancer.gov/news_a…

Spent a great day in Barcelona at the EMBO Targeted Proteomics course hosted by @sabidolab, talking about our DIA tools and helping his team with a hands-on tutorial on FragPipe, FragPipe-Analyst, and Skyline integration, from installation and mzML files to pathway-level results.

Ok, my friends led, I followed. A few clicks, and here we go. Loaded the first photo I found on the disk (note to myself to change it later, way too serious). But 0 followers!! Now I know the feel of social isolation! Help me out there. I will not be leaving X entirely, not yet.

Very nice paper in Science, showing that N-glycosylation can also function as a degradation signal, similar to Ubiq: science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…. Glad to see the authors used our #FragPipe/#MSFragger-Glyco “Glyco-N-LFQ” workflow for quantitative glycoproteomics data analysis.

Assessment of Data-Independent Acquisition Mass Spectrometry (DIA-MS) for the Identification of Single Amino Acid Variants mdpi.com/3029520. Glad to see #FragPipe/#MSFragger showing the most conservative and effective performance (lowest false discovery match ratio (FDMR))

If your presentation falls on Halloween, do it in style! Here is Yi (Leo) Hsiao, Bioinformatics Ph.D. student in the lab, presenting his FragPipe-Analyst tool at today's "Tools and Technology" seminar series at the University of Michigan. #FragPipe medschool.umich.edu/events/t…

Another great collaboration with the Keri Backus' lab, where we implemented a two stage search in #FragPipe to identify gain-of-cys mutations and variants proximal to reference cysteines. Two-stage searches can be useful for many applications, and they ensure group-specific FDR.
Excited to share our chemoproteogenomics story now out in its final form in @NatureComms. Congrats to first author Heta Desai @heta_desai17! nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
