From the As experimental technologies for
characterization of proteomes emerge, bioinformatic analysis of the
data becomes essential. Separation and identification technologies
currently based on two-dimensional gels/mass spectrometry provide the
inherent analytical power required. This strategy involves protein spot
digestion and accurate mass mapping together with computational
interrogation of available data bases for protein functional
identification. When either no exact match is found or when the
possible matches only partially account for molecular weights actually
observed, peptide sequencing by tandem mass spectrometry has emerged as the methodology of choice to provide the basic additional information required. To evaluate the capabilities of bioinformatics methods employed for identifying homologs of a protein of interest, we attempted to identify the major proteins from the 20 S proteasome of
Trypanosoma brucei using sequence information determined
using mass spectrometry. The results suggest that neither the
traditional query engines, BLAST and FASTA, nor specialized software
developed for analysis of sequence information obtained by mass
spectrometry are able to identify even closely related sequences at
statistically significant scores. To address this deficit, new
bioinformatics approaches were developed for concomitant use of the
multiple fragments of short sequence typically available from methods
of tandem mass spectrometry. These approaches rely on the occurrence of
congruence across searches of multiple fragments from a single protein.
This method resulted in sharply better statistical significance values
for correct hits in the data base output relative to that achieved for
independent searches using single sequence fragments.
