Title: Mascot: an introduction


1
Mascot an introduction
  • blent_at_gel.ym.edu.tw

2
Basics
  • What is Mascot?
  • It is a search engine which uses mass
    spectrometry (MS) data to identify proteins from
    primary sequence databases
  • What Mascot offers in proteomics study?

tool input output
Peptide Mass Fingerprint peptide mass values Protein hits
Sequence Query peptide mass amino acid seq, etc. Protein hits
MS/MS Ion Search Peak lists of mass-intensity pairs Protein hits
3
Peptide Mass Fingerprint brief
  • Rationale
  • Due to the specificity of peptide mixture
    resulting from the digestion of a protein by
    enzyme, it becomes possible to identify protein
    from MS data of peptides alone
  • Disadvantage
  • However, it only can identify protein with known
    sequence

Peptide Mass Fingerprint Search
5
Peptide Mass Fingerprint Step 1
return the result via e-mail, save ur time!
6
Peptide Mass Fingerprint Step 2
Why there is no selection option EST DB in
peptide mass fingerprint?
7
Peptide Mass Fingerprint Step 3
  • Special taxonomy id
  • unclassified (undefined or unmatched, 1.5k in
    NCBInr)
  • species info. unavailable

8
Peptide Mass Fingerprint Step 4
9
Peptide Mass Fingerprint Step 5
10
Peptide Mass Fingerprint Step 6
11
Peptide Mass Fingerprint Step 7
choice of m/z value
  • In mass calculation, regard molecule is
  • MH (positive charged)
  • Mr (neutral, no charge)
  • M-H- (negative charged)

12
Peptide Mass Fingerprint Step 8
example 1 peptide only mass
Mascot generic file format
example 2 peptide mass and intensity
example 3 with embedded parameters
13
Example Result
14
Exercise
  • give 2 sets of peptide mass values, please use
    peptide mass fingerprint to find the proteins
    possible composed by these peptides
  • hints are included in data file

15
Sequence Query new options
16
Sequence Query file syntax
  • expression
  • m seq() comp() ions() tag() etag()
  • m mass
  • new information to limit the search
  • seq (orientation prefix regular expression)
  • orientation prefix b, y, , n, c
  • allow multiple seq() in one line (query)
  • comp (1aa12aa23aa3)
  • ions (b/y-m1i1,m2i2, m3i3)
  • tag and etag
  • expression (first peak mass, inferred a.a., last
    peak mass)
  • search sequence bidirectionally
  • some modification will change the mass of peptide
    (set it in etag)
  • more other options!

17
Sequence Query example
from experimental paper study
18
MS/MS ion search new options
one can assign mass here (some file formats do
not have mass record
19
Mass spectrometer 3 main parts
  • ionizer (ionize molecule into ions)
  • MALDI (Matrix-assisted laser desorption
    ionization)
  • ESI (ElectroSpray ionization)
  • mass analyzer (measure the ions)
  • F q(EvB) ma, m/q (EvB)/a, noted as m/z
  • sector MS
  • TOF (time of flight) MS
  • Q (quadrupole) MS, QIT (quadrupole ion trap) MS
  • FT (Fourier transform) MS
  • detector
  • m/z (mass-to-charge ratio)
  • record the relative intensities of molecules with
    different m/z
