ABOUT THE WORKFLOW This workflow was used to analyze the data in a manuscript by Mostovenko et al. (2012, submitted), comparing proteins in the precipitate with those left in solution after organic solvent precipitation. However, the workflow is generally applicable in comparisons of any binary fractionation method in proteomics, where the fractions are analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The workflow identifies proteins by SpectraST spectral library search and X!Tandem database search, validates the results using PeptideProphet and combines them with InterProphet. The proteins are quantified by spectral counting and the fractions compared with respect to protein molecular weight, isoelectric point and GRAVY hydrophobicity score. In the end, an Rshell script produces the figures as presented in the manuscript. Executing the workflow requires Rserve running and the Trans-Proteomic Pipeline (http://tools.proteomecenter.org/wiki/index.php?title=Software:TPP) installed with default settings and in the default location. The Rshell script contains the location where the figures will be generated. All other output files are stored in the input data folders by default. The version of X!Tandem called from this workflow is separate from the one installed with the Trans-Proteomic Pipeline (the location specified in the Tandem components).

    This is a rather large workflow, but it is a first attempt to encode in a single workflow all data analysis steps, from raw mass spectrometry data to figures as they appear in the paper. The database and spectral library searches are done in parallel in three identical embedded workflows rather than serially in one embedded workflow. This allows modification of or comparison between peptide identification strategies as well.

    The Rshell script requires a package for the Venn diagram generation and the workflow assumes the Trans-Proteomic Pipeline is already installed, in its default location.
