PEAKS Studio 4.5 - De Novo Sequencing Software

Waterloo, Canada - July 10, 2007…BSI (Bioinformatics Solutions Inc.) announced today, their much anticipated release of PEAKS 4.5 for peptide mass spectrometry analysis. PEAKS, known for its leadership role in de novo sequencing (sequencing of peptides not present in any database) is once again guiding tandem mass spectrometry researchers into in a new era of data analysis through sequence reconstruction. Accurate sequence reconstruction is performed by the built in SPIDER tool, which has been demonstrated to increase peptide findings by upwards of approximately 20%.

Other cutting-edge enhancements to PEAKS help researchers to identify peptides using predicted retention time. PEAKS provides all of the necessary tools for superior peptide sequence derivation and protein identification from tandem MS/MS spectra - all within an intuitive graphical interface. PEAKS Studio 4.5 provides fast, accurate results for spectra from both sequenced and unsequenced organisms. Instrument Capabilities: Researchers are now fully capable of processing raw data, straight from their instruments (Agilent, Bruker, Shimadzu, Thermo and Waters to name a few).

PEAKS at ASMS 2007

Waterloo, Canada - June 8, 2007…Bioinformatics Solutions Inc. (BSI) has completed another successful ASMS Conference. Two new tools introduced were the new SPIDER, which leads to better understanding of proteins by finding mutated peptides, and inChorus, that lets you directly launch multiple search engines (including Sequest and Mascot) to get better results.

Other improvements allow you to better organize your findings, export results. In short, you can easily integrate de novo sequencing with your other tools — that’s important because you’ll never get better confirmation of peptide hits, and you’ll pick up new peptides that couldn’t be found any other way.

RAPTOR 4.1 - Protein Threading Software

Waterloo, Canada - March 26, 2007…Bioinformatics Solutions Inc. (BSI) has announced the release of RAPTOR 4.1 for Linux and Windows, the latest edition of protein threading software. RAPTOR is an innovative software tool designed to predict protein structure from protein sequence. Armed with unique integer programming algorithm, RAPTOR is capable of discovering remote structural homology for hard sequences and giving high quality prediction.

As a participant in recent CASP’s, RAPTOR has been consistently ranked in the top tier. In addition to the three threading methods proprietary to RAPTOR, the new version integrates PSI-BLAST for rapid identification of easy targets. A built-in pipeline in RAPTOR 4.1 allows users to automatically run more rigorous threading techniques if necessary. RAPTOR 4.1 is your protein structure pipeline, right out of the box.
