Proteomics session 5: Proteome Discoverer

Increased Confidence for Proteomics Data Analysis Using Thermo Scientific Proteome Discoverer Software 2.5

New features include INFERYS re-scoring, a deep learning-based MS/MS prediction for improved confidence in peptide identifications, and improvements in TMT quantification, PTM analysis, biological annotation, cross-linked peptide ID using XlinkX, and top down quantitative proteomics using ProSightPD. After a survey of the new features, the presentation will focus on the use of INFERYS re-scoring to significantly improve analysis of immunopeptidomic data.
