http://prospector.ucsf.edu

A package of over twenty mass spectrometry-based tools primarily geared toward proteomic data analysis and database mining. It can be run from the command line, but is primarily used through a web browser, and there is a public website that allows anyone to use the software without local installation. Tandem mass spectrometry analysis tools are used for database searching and identification of peptides, including post-translationally modified peptides and cross-linked peptides. Support for isotope and label-free quantification from this type of data is provided. MS-Viewer software allows sharing and displaying of annotated spectra from many different tandem mass spectrometry data analysis packages. Other tools include software for analyzing peptide mass fingerprinting data (MS-Fit); prediction of theoretical fragmentation of peptides (MS-Product); theoretical chemical or enzymatic digestion of proteins (MS-Digest); and theoretical modeling of the isotope distribution of any chemical, including peptides (MS-Isotope). Searches using amino acid sequence can be used to identify homologous peptides in a database (MS-Pattern); the use of the combination of amino acid sequence and masses can be used for homologous peptide and protein identification using MS-Homology. Tandem mass spectrometry peak list files can be filtered for the presence of certain peaks or neutral losses using MS-Filter. Given a list of proteins, MS-Bridge can report all potential cross-linked peptide combinations of a specified mass. Given a precursor peptide mass and information about known amino acid presence, absence, or modifications, MS-Comp can report all amino acid combinations that could lead to the observed mass.

GIRI is a private, non-profit research institution founded in 1994. Our mission is to understand biological processes which alter the genetic makeup of different organisms, as a basis for potential gene therapy and genome engineering techniques. We pursue and promote original peer-reviewed, public domain research on genetic information (DNA sequence data), as well as dissemination of databases and computer software related to this research. Our research is heavily based on computer power and human skills different from those applied in classical molecular biology and genetics.

The MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB) has long been, and remains, a world-class research laboratory. Our primary goal is to understand biological processes at the molecular level, through the application of methods drawn from physics, chemistry and genetics. This quest extends from structural studies of individual macromolecules, through their interactions and beyond to the functioning of subcellular systems, cells and multicellular systems in whole organisms, with the ultimate aim of using this knowledge to tackle specific problems in human health and disease. The LMB is one of the birthplaces of modern molecular biology. Many techniques were pioneered at the laboratory, most notably methods for determining the three-dimensional structure of proteins and DNA sequencing. Whole genome sequencing was initiated at the LMB. Another landmark discovery was the invention of monoclonal antibodies. Over the years, the work of LMB scientists has attracted 9 Nobel Prizes, shared between 13 LMB scientists, as well as numerous other prizes and scientific awards.
