ADprot

A mass spectrometric analysis of proteins provides basic information about the identified proteins of a studied biological organism. Output data on a specific protein are limited to the extent of a protein database record in FASTA format, which is supplemented with selected results of an actual mass spectrometric measurement. The processing and evaluation of the results includes a time consuming manual search for further data on individual proteins in available electronic databases.

A software tool ADprot was developed to automate this process. The tool enables:

  • automated search for selected data in freely available protein databases UNIPROT and NCBI, their integration with experimental results obtained by mass spectrometry and saving the data to a local database
  • loading and updating selected data on proteins downloaded from protein databases UNIPROT and NCBI
  • loading experimental data on proteins identified by mass spectrometry including sequences of peptides used for identification of individual proteins in the measurements
  • generating output reports in various formats
  • data stored either on database server or locally in file system

ADprot was developed in cooperation with the Institute of Virology of the Slovak Academy of Sciences.
