Spectrum Mill Workbench Quick Start Guide

New features in Spectrum Mill workbench version A.03.03 

The following are key changes to the user interface and functionality:

Support for more 

instruments and 

data types

Now supported: 

Agilent Q-TOF 

Electron transfer dissociation (ETD) data from Agilent ion trap 

MALDI-TOF-TOF data (via *.mgf file, requires license for Generic Data 
Extractor)

Thermo Fisher Scientific LTQ, LTQ FT, and LTQ Orbitrap, in various 
dissociation modes (requires a license for Thermo Data Extractor, as well as 
co-resident Thermo Fisher Scientific Xcalibur software that is equivalent to or 
newer than the version you used to acquire the data) 

Data Extractor

Ability to disable similarity merging, to improve coverage and to detect more 
low-level peptides for simple samples (for example, a single protein)

MS/MS Search

Capability to search peptides that have a charge up to +7 

New 

Maximum ambiguous precursor charge

, which allows you to choose the 

maximum charge state that you want MS/MS Search to consider when the Data 
Extractor could not discern the charge state for the peptide 

Capability to use protein pI to filter candidate proteins from the database 

Improved scoring schemes, including 

Dynamic peak thresholding

, which is a 

scoring enhancement that enables identification of more low-abundance and 
short-chain peptides

Explicit “mass gap” search that allows you to search for an unexpected or 
unknown modification 

Ability to automatically create a file of previously validated hits from the MS/MS 
Search page, without using the Tool Belt page

MS/MS Autoval-

idation

Addition of +5 charge state to the autovalidation rules 

Capability to perform autovalidation across data files in multiple subdirectories, 
with all peptides contributing to the protein score 

Addition of peptide pI as a validation criterion for samples where the pI is known 
(for example, from offgel fractionation)
