MS²PIP: MS2 Peak Intensity Prediction - Fast and accurate peptide fragmentation spectrum prediction for multiple fragmentation methods, instruments and labeling techniques.
About
MS²PIP is a tool to predict MS2 peak intensities from peptide sequences. The result is a predicted peptide fragmentation spectrum that accurately resembles its observed equivalent. These predictions can be used to validate peptide identifications, generate proteome-wide spectral libraries, or to select discriminative transitions for targeted proteomics. MS²PIP employs the XGBoost machine learning algorithm and is written in Python and C.

:::
You can install MS²PIP on your machine by following the installation instructions. For a more user-friendly experience, go to the MS²PIP web server. There, you can easily upload a list of peptide sequences, after which the corresponding predicted MS2 spectra can be downloaded in multiple file formats. The web server can also be contacted through the RESTful API.
The MS³PIP Python application can perform the following tasks:
predict-single: Predict fragmentation spectrum for a single peptide and optionally visualize the spectrum.predict-batch: Predict fragmentation spectra for a batch of peptides.predict-library: Predict a spectral library from protein FASTA file.correlate: Compare predicted and observed intensities and optionally compute correlations.get-training-data: Extract feature vectors and target intensities from observed spectra for training.annotate-spectra: Annotate peaks in observed spectra.
MS²PIP supports a wide range of PSM input formats and spectrum output formats, and includes pre-trained models for multiple fragmentation methods, instruments and labeling techniques. See Usage for more information.
