Using synthetic peptides to benchmark peptide identification software and search parameters for MS/MS data analysis

Tandem mass spectrometry and sequence database searching are widely used in proteomics to identify peptides in complex mixtures. Here we present a benchmark study in which a pool of 20,103 synthetic peptides was measured and the resulting data set was analyzed using around 1800 different software an...
