search-all-assess-subset

An implementation of the Search All, Asses Subset strategy for FDR estimation in shotgun proteomics.

The search-all-assess-subset FDR procedure has been published in Sticker et al. Nature Methods 14, 643–644 (2017) doi:10.1038/nmeth.4338

Mass spectrometrists should search for all peptides, but assess only the ones they care about

Please include this reference if you use search-all-assess-subset FDR procedure as part of a publication.

A user-friendly GUI version of saas is hosted here.

More information on the FDR estimation procedure for subsets and the usage of the SAAS package can be found in the vignette
