PEAKS Studio
The complete software solution for proteomics.
Overview
PEAKS Studio by Bioinformatics Solutions Inc. is a comprehensive software package for proteomics mass spectrometry analysis. It is particularly known for its de novo sequencing algorithm, which can determine peptide sequences directly from MS/MS spectra without a database. This is combined with database search (PEAKS DB), PTM analysis, and quantification tools to provide a complete proteomics workflow.
✨ Key Features
- De novo sequencing
- Database search (PEAKS DB)
- PTM profiling (PEAKS PTM)
- Label-free and label-based quantification (PEAKS Q)
- SPIDER algorithm for homology search with de novo tags
- Support for DIA and DDA data
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Industry-leading de novo sequencing algorithm.
- Integrated workflow combining de novo sequencing with database search for deeper proteome coverage.
- Strong capabilities in antibody sequencing.
Unique Value: Maximizes protein identifications from MS data by combining traditional database searching with high-accuracy de novo sequencing, enabling the discovery of novel peptides and modifications.
🎯 Use Cases (5)
✅ Best For
- Widely used for antibody sequencing due to its strong de novo sequencing capabilities.
- Cited in numerous publications for comprehensive protein identification.
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Genomic data analysis
