Generating high-quality libraries for DIA-MS with empirically-corrected peptide predictions
Data-independent acquisition approaches typically rely on sample-specific spectrum libraries requiring offline fractionation and tens to hundreds of injections. We demonstrate a new library generation workflow that leverages fragmentation and retention time prediction to build libraries containing every peptide in a proteome, and then refines those libraries with empirical data. Our method specifically enables rapid library generation for non-model organisms, which we demonstrate using the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum, and non-canonical databases, which we show by detecting missense variants in HeLa.
