  1. Key Features:

    1.1. Rapid loading of Peaks files: mzML, mgf, pkl, ms2, dta, apl, mzData, mzXML

    1.2. Rapid loading of identification and quantitation files: PRIDE XML, mzIdentML, mzTab

    1.3. Search, access and download PRIDE Archive ‘complete’ public experiments through web-services, with search capabilities for modifications, species, disease, tissue, etc

    1.4. Distinct views on mass spectra, chromatograms, proteins, peptide-spectrum-matches, peptides, protein-groups, quantification and experiment details:

    • Visualize all spectra and chromatograms with their fragment annotations

      • Automatic annotation of Fragment Ion information
    • Automatic annotation for spectra using MS/MS fragment ions (if ion assignments are not included) Support for various ion types, including co-eluting and immonium ions and amino acid annotation for different fragment ion series within a spectrum

      • Filtering based on types of fragment ions and amino acid annotations
      • Ability to show/hide mass differences for amino acid annotations
      • Configurable fragment ion mass error tolerance for performing the amino acid annotations
      • Visualization of Mass Table to see the differences between assigned ions and spectrum peaks
      • Visualization of the delta mass at Fragment Ion level
      • Save a spectrum or chromatogram as an image. Supported formats include SVG, PNG, JPEG, GIF and PDF file.
      • Highlight peaks with m/z and intensity values in a spectrum.
      • Export spectra data to mgf
      • Show mass differences for selected peaks and annotated fragment ions, showing the sequence of the assigned peptide
      • Automatic suggestion on possible amino acids and charges based on mass differences of the selected peaks
      • Highlight peak with its m/z and intensity value
      • Show categorized metadata for each spectrum or chromatogram and annotated precursor ions

      • Show all protein identifications, together with the peptide-spectrum-matches and the spectra used for identification.
      • Show general details about protein identifications (such as search engine, search database, search parameters, number of PSMs, number of unique peptides) from original data
      • Automatic correction of poorly formatted protein accessions by using web services to retrieve protein names, protein status and protein sequences from different protein databases (for UniProt, UniParc, Ensembl)
      • Show Protein sequence information for those files that contains sequences such as mzIdentML and mzTab
      • Calculate the theoretical pI for both protein and peptide identifications
      • Show the protein group for those files that contains Protein Group information
      • Calculate delta m/z for each peptide (difference between the theoretical and the experimental m/z). Highlighting is also done according to the chosen threshold (4 Da)
      • Show for each peptide the list of PSM with the corresponding information of protein modifications, scores, etc
      • Hyperlink all valid protein accessions and protein modifications accessions.
      • Possibility to filter by PSM ranks
