Popis: | Glycans are responsible for many biological activities; however, their structures are incredibly diverse and complex often rendering the field of glycomics unsolvable by a single analytical technique. The development of multiple chemical derivatization strategies and bioinformatic software are responsible for some of the greatest analytical gains in the field of glycomics. The INLIGHT(™) strategy is a chemical derivatization technique using hydrazide chemistry to derivatize the reducing end of N-linked glycans and incorporates either a natural (NAT – (12)C(6)) or stable-isotope label (SIL – (13)C(6)) to carry out relative quantification. Here we present GlycoHunter, a user-friendly software created in MATLAB that enables researchers to accurately and efficiently process MS1 glycomics data where a NAT and SIL pair are generated for relative quantification, including but not limited to, INLIGHT(™). GlycoHunter accepts the commonly used data files formats imzML or mzXML, and effectively identifies all peak pairs associated with NAT and SIL labeled N-linked glycans using MS1 data. It also includes the ability to tailor the search parameters and export the results for further analysis using Skyline or Excel. |
