MSFragger: ultrafast and comprehensive peptide identification in shotgun proteomics
Nature Methods, 2017 There is a need to better understand and handle the 'dark matter' of proteomics—the vast diversity of post-translational and chemical modifications that are unaccounted in a typical mass spectrometry–based analysis and thus remain unidentified.
