Hi,

I have a similar question as Andrea- ie, to find the sample information based on iTRAQ labelling in TCGA BC dataset (instead of Andrea's CCLE analysis);

https://proteomic.datacommons.cancer.gov/pdc/study/PDC000111

The novel peptides that I find with PEPQUERY, I wish to map back to sample. I see it is possible using spectrum ID- but struggling to find spectrum information.

Sorry for being naive- I am very new to this field.

How can I find matching spectrum in this? Any help would be really appreciated.

Thank you very much in advance.

Hi Abhijeet,

Below is an example to show you how to find sample information for TCGA BC dataset:

For this peptide "SYELPDGQVITIGNEQFR", we could get a match as shown below:

From the dataset link showing in the dataset table at http://pepquery2.pepquery.org/:

You could find a sample mapping table like below:

Download the Excel file and open it:

Then based on the information from the spectrum ID: TCGA_C8-A12P_BH-A0C1_A2-A0EY_117C_W_BI_20130622_H-PM_f08:31425:2, you can find which iTRAQ experiment (also the sample IDs in the iTRAQ experiment: column 114-Biospecimen,115-Biospecimen,116-Biospecimen) this spectrum comes from:

Please let me know if this works for you.

In short, in your example, SYELPDGQVITIGNEQFR,

Which iTRAQ bioscpecimen (114,115,116) does it come from ?

Based on the reporter ion intensity distribution, it looks like this peptide comes from "116 bio specimen" in which the reporter ion intensity is much higher than others.

Oh I see! Thanks a lot! It means, basically the solution is to map the spectrum title to the 116, 117,118 reporter ion intensities of that particular scan? Am I interpreting it correct?

Yes. But you could also look for evidence in corresponding genomics or RNA-Seq data from TCGA.

Thanks again! Really amazing 👍
