DatabaseSuitability

Computes a suitability score for a database which was used for a peptide identification search. Also reports the quality of LC-MS spectra.

Options

version
Version of the tool that generated this parameters file.
novo_threshold
Minimum score a de novo sequence has to have to be defined as 'correct'. The default of 60 is proven to be a good estimate for sequences generated by Novor.
log
Name of log file (created only when specified)
debug
Sets the debug level
threads
Sets the number of threads allowed to be used by the TOPP tool
no_progress
Disables progress logging to command line
force
Overrides tool-specific checks
test
Enables the test mode (needed for internal use only)
no_rerank
Use this flag if you want to disable re-ranking. Cases, where a de novo peptide scores just higher than the database peptide, are overlooked and counted as a de novo hit. This might underestimate the database quality.
reranking_cutoff_percentile
Swap a top-scoring deNovo hit with a lower scoring DB hit if their xcorr score difference is in the given percentile of all score differences between the first two decoy hits of a PSM. The lower the value the lower the decoy cut-off will be. Therefore it will be harder for a lower scoring DB hit to be re-ranked to the top.
FDR
Filter peptide hits based on this q-value. (e.g., 0.05 = 5 % FDR)
number_of_subsampled_runs
Controls how many runs should be done for calculating corrected suitability. (0 : number of runs will be estimated automaticly) ATTENTION: For each run a seperate ID-search is performed. This can result in some serious run time.
keep_search_files
Set this flag if you wish to keep the files used by and produced by the internal ID search.
disable_correction
Set this flag to disable the calculation of the corrected suitability.
force
Set this flag to enforce re-ranking when no cross correlation score is present. For re-ranking the default score found at each peptide hit is used. Use with care!

Input Ports

Icon
Input idXML file containing de novo peptides (unfiltered) [idXML]
Icon
Input FASTA file of the database in question [FASTA]
Icon
Input deNovo sequences derived from MzML given in 'in_spec' concatenated to one FASTA entry [FASTA]

Output Ports
