Abstract

Quantitative mass spectrometry (MS) is a key technique in many research areas (Yates III et al. 2009), including proteomics, metabolomics, glycomics, and lipidomics. Because all of the corresponding molecules can be described by chemical formulas, universal quantification tools are highly desirable. Here we present pyQms, an open-source software for accurate quantification of all types of molecules measurable by MS. pyQms uses isotope pattern matching which offers accurate quality assessment of the quantification and the ability to directly incorporate mass spectrometer accuracy. pyQms is, due to its universal design, applicable to every research field, labeling strategy, and acquisition technique. This opens ultimate flexibility for researchers to design experiments employing innovative and hitherto unexplored labeling strategies. Importantly, pyQms performs very well to accurately quantify partially labeled proteomes in large-scale and high-throughput, the most challenging task for a quantification algorithm.

pyQms module

At its core, pyQms is a Python module that allows a isotope pattern library to be initialized and any list of (mz, intensity) to be matched against the library, yielding a mScore.

Documentation

http://pyqms.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Implementation

pyQms requires Python3.4+ .

The module is freely available on pyqms.github.io or pypi, published under MIT LGPL and requires no additional modules to be installed. For fast spectra from mzML access we recommend pymzML (Bald et al. 2012). For example scripts it is necessary to install pymzML as well or change the code for alternated spectra access. For some scripts also the openpyxl module is required.

Installation

Install requirements:

user@localhost:~$ cd pyqms
user@localhost:~/pyqms$ pip3.4 install -r requirements.txt

Install pyQms:

user@localhost:~/pyqms$ python3.4 setup.py install

pyQms can be also be installed via pip:

pip install pyqms

(You might need administrator privileges to write in the Python site-package folder. On Linux or OS X, use `sudo python setup.py install` or write into a user folder by using this command `python setup.py install --user`. On Windows, you have to start the command line with administrator privileges.)

pyQms docs recompiling and extending

You will require sphinx and other packages to build the documentation from scratch. We recommend to use a Python virtual environment for easy installation and use.

Tests

Run nosetests in root folder. You might need to install nose for Python3 first. Then just execute:

user@localhost:~/pyqms$ nosetests3

to test the package.
