Tóm tắt

AbstractIdentification of proteins by MS plays an important role in proteomics. A crucial step concerns the identification of peptides from MS/MS spectra. The X!Tandem Project (http://www.thegpm.org/tandem) supplies an open‐source search engine for this purpose. In this study, we present an open‐source Java library called XTandem Parser that parses X!Tandem XML result files into an easily accessible and fully functional object model (http://xtandem‐parser.googlecode.com). In addition, a graphical user interface is provided that functions as a usage example and an end‐user visualization tool.
