Cross-Correlation Algorithm for Calculation of Peptide Molecular Weight from Tandem Mass Spectra
We have developed an approach to identify the molecular weight of a peptide ion directly from its corresponding tandem mass spectrum using a cross-correlation function. We have shown that the monoisotopic molecular weight can be calculated for ∼90% of tandem mass spectra identified from tryptic dige...

Zusammenfassung: | We have developed an approach to identify the molecular weight of a peptide ion directly from its corresponding tandem mass spectrum using a cross-correlation function. We have shown that the monoisotopic molecular weight can be calculated for ∼90% of tandem mass spectra identified from tryptic digests of complex protein mixtures. The accuracy of the calculated monoisotopic masses was dependent on the resolution and mass accuracy of the spectra analyzed, but was typically |
