Hi Ash,

Could you please be more specific about the review article?.  I think Mzmine 
does not have such feature.

In rode to do spectral counting in proteomic experiments, first you need to get 
the identification of the spectrum (peptide sequence - Protein ID) and  Mzmine 
does not have that feature. That is performed using a software like Mascot or 
Sequest. And using this id's, you can perform semi-absolute quantification 
outside of Mzmine, just using excel.

Previously Mzmine  had an option to create a mgf (Mascot Generic Format) file 
from a peak list. Then you can send this file to a Mascot server. After 
retrieving the identification from Mascot, Mzmine assigns the id to the 
corresponding peak. But this is not for quantification, it's more like 
confirmation of the true identity of the peaks on your data.

However, due the last improvements in Mzmine data model and modules management, 
this option is currently unavailable. We have plans to implement this feature 
again in the short future.

I hope this can help you,

Alex Villar

Hi,
I read in a review article "Mass Spectrometry-Based Label-Free Quantitative 
Proteomics" that Mzmine is able to do label-free quantification or "spectral 
counting". Is this true? If so, can someone tell me how to do it?

Thank you,
Ash
