Software

Continued improvements in mass spectrometry technology and throughput have empowered our lab to tackle increasingly larger and more complex biological problems. As the MS datasets we generate expand in size, we have started to explore improved mediums for analyzing and disseminating data with collaborators and biochemical researchers worldwide.

Metandem

A free data analysis platform for mass spectrometry-based isobaric labeling metabolomics. It allows users to upload and process MS or hyphenated MS data files for isobaric-labeling-based quantitative and qualitative metabolomics analyses, including feature extraction, metabolite quantification, metabolite identification, batch processing of multiple data files, parameter optimization, median normalization, and statistical analysis. Results can be downloaded or visualized online.

Compass

A free and open-source software pipeline for high-throughput analysis of proteomics data, designed around the Open Mass Spectrometry Search Algorithm. COMPASS supports all functions required for searching proteomics data including: FASTA database creation, peptide-spectral matching, calculation of false discovery rates, and protein grouping.

Morpheus

A custom search algorithm developed by the Coon Research lab designed from the ground up for high-resolution tandem mass spectra. We have discovered that for high-resolution MS/MS, simple spectrum preprocessing and scoring performs superior to more complex algorithms originally developed for low-resolution MS/MS, such as Sequest, Mascot, and OMSSA.

High-Resolution Filtering

An algorithm designed to exploit the high-resolution measurements afforded by the Thermo Fisher Q-Exactive GC mass spectrometer platform to improve identification of profiled metabolites and other small molecules.

Web-based data sharing

We have built custom online data exploration tools in support of numerous projects and are actively developing new tools to enable MS researchers worldwide to share and explore data directly from a web browser.
