News

SuperHirn v0.3 is now officially available since end of this january. The software is still maintained by the group of Prof. Ruedi Aebersold at the Institute of Molecular Systems Biology (ETHZ, Switzerland). We would like to acknowledge all people who helped to test the new version, provided use with ideas and inputs to improve SuperHirn and reported back bugs. Below is a list of new features which are now available in version 0.3:

  • LC-MS similarity analysis: Binary similarity analysis of LC-MS runs (intensity reproducibility, feature overlap)
  • Feature intensity normalization: global MS1 feature intensity normalization across LC-MS runs
  • Unsupervised feature profiling: Kmeans cluster analysis of MS1 features
  • Targeted peptide/protein profiling: Correlate peptide/protein profile vs. a given target profile
  • MS1 feature annotation: Annotation of MS1 features in the MasterMap (inclusion list etc.)


Description

SuperHirn is a novel tool to quantitatively analyze multi dimensional LC-MS data in a label-free approach and was developed by the group of Prof. Ruedi Aebersold at the Institute of Molecular Systems Biology (ETHZ, Switzerland). The software is programmed in C++ and is compatible with Unix platforms (tested on Linux and OSX). LC-MS data are preprocessed by a MS1 feature extraction routine and the different LC-MS runs are then combined by a multi dimensional LC-MS alignment into a general repository called MasterMap. SuperHirn then offers several modules for post data analysis of the MasterMap:

  • LC-MS similarity analysis: Binary similarity analysis of LC-MS runs (intensity reproducibility, feature overlap)
  • Feature intensity normalization: global MS1 feature intensity normalization across LC-MS runs
  • Unsupervised feature profiling: Kmeans cluster analysis of MS1 features
  • Targeted peptide/protein profiling: Correlate peptide/protein profile vs. a given target profile
  • MS1 feature annotation: Annotation of MS1 features in the MasterMap (inclusion list etc.)

About SuperHirn Parameters

Description about the most important SuperHirn parameters:

The following table describes the most important SuperHirn processing parameters. These are stored in the Root-Parameter file and mostly optimized for FT profile data. To modify a parameter, do as following:

1.) copy the parameter in this format to your param.def file:

MS1 retention time tolerance=1.0

2.) adjust the parameters as you wish:

MS1 retention time tolerance=2.0

3.) run SuperHirn

4.) if you do not need the parameter anymore, just delete it or comment it out by //MS1 retention time tolerance ...
