I am new to mass spectrometry. I work on a non-model animal (genome not sequenced) and de novo sequencing appears to be promising in helping me better identify my separated proteins.
However, I can only access to use the ABI 4800 MALDI TOF/TOF
, is it possible for this ms to perform de novo sequencing?
The raw data MS files i receive is CAL or T2D format. Is it possible that this machine could generate wiff files (sorry for this stupid question coz i have no idea)? or is there any methods or softwares to convert into wiff files?
Please kidnly give me an idea. Thanks in advance.
