C.7 Using MS Fit/MS Tag Toolbox
Use the MS Fit/MS Tag toolbox when analyzing protein digest,
peptide, or peptide fragment spectra to perform a protein
database search.
Preparing data
before accessing
Before using the MS Fit/MS Tag toolbox:
1. In the Data Explorer software, smooth the data, perform
a baseline correction, then deisotope.
2. If needed, use Advanced Peak Detection parameters to
adjust peak detection ranges and thresholds to screen out
noise in low-mass regions and to detect peaks in
high-mass regions.
3. Set the Set the %Base Peak Intensity or %Max Peak Area
in peak detection until the unwanted noise peaks are
removed from the Spec Peak list.
