Bioinformatics Committee Exploration of the sPRG2006 Study Data Sets ABRF2007, Tampa, FL
Bioinformatics Committee (BIC) General Goals • Examine sPRG2006 datasets • Act as the foundation for an ABRF "iPRG" – Proteome Informatics Research Group Members • Jeffrey A. Kowalak - National Institutes of Health • William S. Lane - Harvard University • Alexey Nesvizhskii - University of Michigan • Brian C. Searle - Proteome Software • Sean L. Seymour - Applied Biosystems (chair) • David L. Tabb - Vanderbilt University
Specific Questions of Interest • What is the best answer set of proteins for the sample? • Which 'bonus proteins' reported by respondents last year are correct? • Careful protein inference assumed to be key in answering this. • A 'best answer' for the sample would allow these data sets to be used for future informatics tools development, testing, etc. • Can experts in informatics get consistent results using different analysis tools? • How similar are existing protein inference tools? • Can we dissect acquisition and informatics sources of variation in the quality of answers from last year’s sPRG study?
Analyzed Data: sPRG2006 Study • 78 labs responded to last year's sPRG Study • 24 labs provided raw data (used Tranche repository) • Converted data to mzData, mzXML, .dta, and .mgf • 19 sets were ultimately examined • These sets included: • Data from all major vendors' instruments • ESI and MALDI, 1D-LC, 2D-LC, and gel workflows. • Only MS/MS data were considered.
Method to Finding Consensus • Stage 1: Free exploration of data sets • Stage 2: From inclusive to focused: BIC Candidates FASTA database • Included all accessions that anyone suggested might be correct: • Original respondents’ protein lists. • BIC from UniProt, IPI, NCBI, Sigma recombinant proteins, and a contaminant database. • Searched concatenated decoy database. • Stage 3: Final searches on BIC FASTA DB • Upon seeing rough results, we removed unnecessary non-human proteins. All Swiss-Prot human proteins 15,637 Strong IPI, NCBI candidates 4 Strong non-human candidates 39 Strong Sigma sequence candidates 1 Total 15,681 (31,362 including reversed)
BIC Consensus Protein Annotation • Not everyone searched all 19 files – total of 84 searches • Of 247 total proteins that had any evidence: • 133 were vouched for by at least one person • Reduced to 104 by requiring a majority in same lab
BIC Consensus Protein Annotation • Total proteins detected in any lab’s data 104 Expected: Intended 49 proteins 49 Expected: Additional human proteins 20 Expected: E.coli 3 Total desirable protein detections (originally in sample) 72 Expected: Digestion enzyme 2 Variable: Human keratins 12 Variable: Sheep proteins (from wool) 5 Variable: Trypanosome proteins 9 Variable: E.coli proteins 4 Total other detections (avoidable artifacts) 30

BIC Assessment of Data Set Quality and Consistency of Analysis • Not everyone counts peptides the same way. • However, trends were clearly consistent. • To assess consistency of our analyses and the fundamental quality of the acquired data sets, peptide measures were normalized.
Normalization of Peptide Metrics across BIC Member Analyses • Considered 4 data sets. • Sum each protein per BIC. • Compute the mean value for each protein across BIC. • Determine a normalization factor for each BIC member. Expected Proteins 1-49
Consistency of BIC on Individual Data Sets • For cross-validation, consider data sets not used to determined the normalization factors. Expected Proteins 1-49
Consistency of BIC on Individual Data Sets With error bars indicating variance across BIC • Averaging all BIC measures for any single data set yields a consensus on the information content or quality of the data set. Expected Proteins 1-49 …or for simplicity, just the trend line. Expected Proteins 1-49 Expected Proteins 1-49
BIC Consensus: Qualities of Acquired Data Expected Proteins 1-49
BIC Consensus: Qualities of Acquired Data Proteins 50-80
BIC Consensus: Qualities of Acquired Data E.coli Proteins 100-145
Re-grading of sPRG2006 Results • Using the annotation, the picture changes slightly.
Conclusions • A master protein list has been produced for the sPRG2006 study sample. • Despite using very different tools, experts were able to get surprisingly consistent results. • A key to recognizing this consistency was careful alignment of reported proteins preserving ambiguity among accession numbers where possible. • By doing our own informatics analyses, we were able to order the participants’ data sets by our assessment of the quality of the acquired data. • We reconfirm the conclusion of last year’s sPRG study that the expertise of the user seems to be the dominant factor in the quality of the acquired data. • There are both good and bad sets from high res and low res instruments, as well as newer and older instruments. • Re-grading submitted protein lists with our master protein list allowed confirmation of additional correct proteins reported by last year’s respondents. • To what extent is expertise a factor in consistency of informatics analyses? • www.abrf.org/sprg

Normalization of Peptide Metrics across BIC Member Analyses • Comparison of the individual means to the group mean allows the derivation of a correction factor from a simple fit to y=mx.
