    De Novo Markup Language, a Standard To Represent De Novo Sequencing Results From Ms/Ms Data
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2012) Takan, Savaş; Allmer, Jens
    Proteomics is the study of the proteins that can be derived from a genome. For the identification and sequencing of proteins, mass spectrometry has become the tool of choice. Within mass spectrometry-based proteomics, proteins can be identified or sequenced by either database search or de novo sequencing. Both methods have certain advantages and drawbacks but in the long run we envision de novo sequencing to become the predominant tool. Currently, de novo sequencing results are stored in arbitrary file formats, depending on the developers of the algorithms. We identified this as a large and unnecessary obstacle while integrating results from multiple de novo sequencing algorithms. Therefore, we designed a standard file format for the representation of de novo sequencing results. We further developed an application programming interface since we identified the lack of proper APIs as another obstacle, introducing a needlessly high learning curve for developers. © 2012 IEEE.

    Relative Protein Quantitation With Post Translational Modifications in Mass Spectrometry Based Proteomics
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2010) Allmer, Jens
    Mass spectrometry has become the tool of choice for most investigations in proteomics. Identification of proteins from complex mixtures has long been achieved and is now routinely used in countless high throughput studies. Quantitation by mass spectrometry is comparably newer and many different strategies have been proposed. One such strategy quantitates the difference in protein expression level among samples via extracted ion chromatograms, or spectral counts or a combination thereof. Another strategy involves mass modifications of the analytes in one or more of the samples under investigation. MSMAG has been developed as an extension to 2DB and it has been shown that it can aid in quantitation of data from experiments employing label-free quantitation. Recently, it has been extended to allow for analysis of data based on labelling strategies. This also makes it possible to quickly visualize and investigate inherent mass differences as presented by post translational modifications. ©2009 IEEE.
