Detailed Description

Extracts individual channels from MS/MS spectra for isobaric labeling experiments.

In addition to extracting the channel information this class can also filter the extracted channel information according to several parameters, i.e., discard channel information if certain criteria are not met.

  • Precursor activation method (e.g., select only HCD scans).
  • Minimum precursor intensity.
  • Minimum reporter intensity (i.e., remove reporter channels below a certain intensity)
  • Precursor purity (i.e., fraction of TIC in the precursor window that can be assigned to the precursor)

The precursor purity computation uses the interpolation approach described in: Savitski MM, Sweetman G, Askenazi M, et al. (2011). Delayed fragmentation and optimized isolation width settings for improvement of protein identification and accuracy of isobaric mass tag quantification on Orbitrap-type mass spectrometers. Analytical chemistry 83: 8959-67. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22017476

Note
Centroided MS and MS/MS data is required.
