- Abstract
- Proteome Discoverer is one of many tools used for protein database search and peptide to spectrum assignment in mass spectrometry-based proteomics. However, the inadequacy of conversion tools makes it challenging to compare and integrate its results to those of other analytical tools. Herewith, M2Lite, an open-source, light-weight, easily pluggable and fast conversion tool is presented. M2Lite converts proteome discoverer derived .MSF files to the proteomics community defined standard – the mzIdentML file format. M2Lite’s source code is available as open-source at https://bitbucket.org/paiyetan/m2lite/src and its compiled binaries and documentation can be freely downloaded at https://bitbucket.org/paiyetan/m2lite/downloads.
