Protein identification results were compared for the Mascot commercial search engine, the SearchGUI noncommercial package, and their analog IdentiProt based on the open-source IdentiPy algorithm (http://hg.theorchromo.ru/identipy). A feature of IdentiPy is an automatic optimization of MS/MS search parameters. A set of protein identifications obtained with IdentiPy was consequently greater by one third than the sets with the other search engines. For the first time, an IdentiPy/IdentiProt search was conducted within the Progenesis LC-MS framework, which allows spectrum alignment, and the proteome profile obtained with alignment was compared with that obtained using the ProteoWizard converter. A total of 16 human chromosome 18 proteins were identified, including the myelin basic protein, which is not characteristic of testicular tissue. biopsy, testicular tissue, proteomics, tandem mass spectroscopy, Mascot, SearchGUI, IdentiProt, chromosome 18 |
