Abstract
AbstractCrosslinking mass spectrometry (XL-MS) is a valuable technique for the generation of point-to-point distance measurements in protein space. Applications involvingin situchemical crosslinking have created the possibility of mapping whole protein interactomes with high spatial resolution. However, an XL-MS experiment carried out directly on cells requires highly efficient software that can detect crosslinked peptides with sensitivity and controlled error rates. Many algorithmic approaches invoke a filtering strategy designed to reduce the size of the database prior to mounting a search for crosslinks, but concern has been expressed over the possibility of reduced sensitivity with such strategies. Here we present a full upgrade to CRIMP, the crosslinking app in the Mass Spec Studio, which implements a new strategy for the detection of both component peptides in the MS2spectrum. Using several published datasets, we demonstrate that this pre-searching method is sensitive and fast, permitting whole proteome searches on a conventional desktop computer for both cleavable and noncleavable crosslinkers. We introduce a new strategy for scoring crosslinks, adapted from computer vision algorithms, that properly resolves conflicting XL hits from other crosslinking reaction products, and we present a method for enhancing the detection of protein-protein interactions that relies upon compositional data.
