YADA: a tool for taking the most out of high-resolution spectra

Bioinformatics. 2009 Oct 15;25(20):2734-6. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btp489. Epub 2009 Aug 14.

Abstract

YADA can deisotope and decharge high-resolution mass spectra from large peptide molecules, link the precursor monoisotopic peak information to the corresponding tandem mass spectrum, and account for different co-fragmenting ion species (multiplexed spectra). We describe how YADA enables a pipeline consisting of ProLuCID and DTASelect for analyzing large-scale middle-down proteomics data.
