Experimental Design and Data Acquisition in Food Proteomics Using Protein Prospector
摘要
The use of mass spectrometry in proteomics can generate very large amounts of data. This data needs to be processed by high-throughput software capable of both identifying and quantitating proteins either directly or by inferring them from peptides. Many of these programs, although powerful, are not always intuitive for a neophyte user. This chapter aims at investigating the key functionalities of Protein Prospector, one of the most widely used in-silico tools for protein identification and quantification.
