Release Notes

Proline release notes provide information on the features and improvements in each new release.

Version 2.2 (Server, GUI & Tools)

Version 2.2.0

This new release improves the PTMs oriented functionalities. The previous version introduced a clear distinction between modification sites and clusters of modifications .A significant work has been done on the visualisation and exploitation of these two concepts.

The 2.2.0 version also includes several improvements and fixes detailed here after.

Server Features and Bug Fixes
  • Some label free quantitation improvement
    • Ensure repeatability of RT alignment
    • Peakels slicing improved
    • Bug fixes in peakel smoothing and isomeric peptides computation.
  • Identifications merges
    • Merged peptide matches will reference child’s ‘spectrum matches’ in order to display spectrum annotation.
    • Add Fragmentation Rule Set information in merged dataset, if same value in all children
  • Result files Imports
    • Add Peptide Match disambiguated sequence properties (where corresponding AA replaces X/J). Export this property as new column.

    • Integration of Spectlight, a 3D web-viewer of mzDB files to manually check a peptide environment and its XICs over all input files
  • About 150 issues closed…

Version 1.1

  • New global features (on server):
    • Algorithm and other operation
      • Spectral Count algorithm modification: Spectral Count Weigth is based on specific PSM count instead of specific peptide count.
      • ProteinSets filtering (independently of validation)
    • Save, import and export ◦Export to PRIDE format
      • Support import of X!Tandem result file
  • New features in Studio:
    • Algorithm and other operation
      • Enhancement of data mixer: module to easily do calculations/comparisons on data.
      • Integration of a calculator: it lets you write python scripts to manipulate freely viewed data.
      • Add interface for ProteinSets filtering

      • Customizable export of Identification dataset, or Spectral Count or XIC
      • Add interface for Export to PRIDE format
      • Add interface for import of X!Tandem result file
    • Display
      • Display MzDB Files through mzScope module (directly in Studio)
      • Enhancement of the XIC display and Spectral Count display
  • New features in Web:
    • New & improved Interface !

Database Schema

You will found here schema of the different databases used in Proline :

 

  • MSIdb contains all identification and quantitation results for a given project
  • LCMSdb contains maps of MS features for a given project
  • UDSdb contains information on projects, user and identification and/or quantitation experimental plan
