LiP-MS has emerged as a method that can provide proteome-wide information on protein structure and has been applied to a range of biological and biophysical questions. Although LiP- MS can be carried out with standard laboratory reagents and mass spectrometers, analyzing the data can be slow and poses unique challenges compared to typical quantitative proteomics workflows. To address this, we leverage the fast, sensitive, and accurate search and label-free quantification algorithms in FragPipe and then process its output in FLiPPR. FLiPPR formalizes a specific data imputation heuristic that carefully uses missing data in LiP-MS experiments to report on the most significant structural changes. Moreover, FLiPPR introduces a new data merging scheme (from ions to cut-sites) and a protein-centric multiple hypothesis correction scheme, collectively enabling processed LiP-MS datasets to be more robust and less redundant. These improvements substantially strengthen statistical trends when previously published data are reanalyzed with the FragPipe\/FLiPPR workflow. As a final feature, FLiPPR facilitates the collection of structural metadata to identify correlations between experiments and structural features. We hope that FLiPPR will lower the barrier for more users to adopt LiP-MS, standardize statistical procedures for LiP-MS data analysis, and systematize output to facilitate eventual larger-scale integration of LiP-MS data.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1101\/2023.12.04.569947","type":"posted-content","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,5]],"date-time":"2023-12-05T20:50:21Z","timestamp":1701809421000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["FLiPPR: A Processor for Limited Proteolysis (LiP) Mass Spectrometry Datasets Built on FragPipe"],"prefix":"10.64898","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7284-1237","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Edgar","family":"Manriquez-Sandoval","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2758-351X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Joy","family":"Brewer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-9419-9526","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gabriela","family":"Lule","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-6768-8802","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Samanta","family":"Lopez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2494-2193","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Stephen D.","family":"Fried","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"54368","reference":[{"key":"2023120712451244000_2023.12.04.569947v1.1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1547","DOI":"10.1002\/pmic.201100520","article-title":"Integrating mass spectrometry of intact protein complexes into structural proteomics","volume":"12","year":"2012","journal-title":"Proteomics"},{"key":"2023120712451244000_2023.12.04.569947v1.2","first-page":"95","article-title":"Investigating the higher order structure of proteins.
