Introduction:
With the introduction of accurate deep learning predictors, spectral matching applications might experience a renaissance in tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) driven proteomics. Deep learning models, e.g., Prosit, predict complete MS/MS spectra from peptide sequences and give the unprecedented ability to accurately predict mass spectra that may arise from any given proteome. However, the amount of spectral data is enormous when querying large search spaces, e.g., metaproteomes composed of many different species.
Current spectral library search software, such as SpectraST, is not equipped to meet run time and memory constraints imposed by such large MS/MS databases, covering several millions of peptide spectrum predictions.
Methods:
Inspired by the fragment index data structure that had been introduced with MSFragger, we implement an efficient peak matching algorithm for computing spectral similarity between query and library spectra. Mistle (Metaproteomic index and spectral library search engine) uses index partitioning and SIMD (Single instruction, multiple data) intrinsics, which greatly improves speed and memory efficiency for searching large spectral libraries. Mistle is written in C++20 and highly parallelized.
Results:
We demonstrate the efficiency of Mistle on two predicted spectral libraries for the lab-assembled microbial communities 9MM and SIHUMIx. Compared to the spectral library search engine SpectraST, Mistle shows a >10-fold runtime improvement and is also faster than msSLASH, which uses locality-sensitive hashing. Although Mistle is slower than MSFragger, Mistle‘s memory footprint is an order of magnitude smaller. Furthermore, we find evidence that the spectral matching approach to predicted libraries identifies peptides with higher precision. Mistle detects peptides not found by database search via MSFragger and in turn uncovers unnoticed false discoveries among their matches.
Conclusion:
In this study, we show that predicted spectral libraries can enhance peptide identification for metaproteomics. Mistle provides the means to efficiently search large-scale spectral libraries, highlighted for the microbiota 9MM and SIHUMIx.
Mistle: bringing spectral library predictions to metaproteomics with an efficient search index
(2023)
Motivation: Deep learning has moved to the forefront of tandem mass spectrometry-driven proteomics and authentic prediction for peptide fragmentation is more feasible than ever. Still, at this point spectral prediction is mainly used to validate database search results or for confined search spaces. Fully predicted spectral libraries have not yet been efficiently adapted to large search space problems that often occur in metaproteomics or proteogenomics.
Results: In this study, we showcase a workflow that uses Prosit for spectral library predictions on two common metaproteomes and implement an indexing and search algorithm, Mistle, to efficiently identify experimental mass spectra within the library. Hence, the workflow emulates a classic protein sequence database search with protein digestion but builds a searchable index from spectral predictions as an in-between step.
We compare Mistle to popular search engines, both on a spectral and database search level, and provide evidence that this approach is more accurate than a database search using MSFragger. Mistle outperforms other spectral library search engines in terms of run time and proves to be extremely memory efficient with a 4- to 22-fold decrease in RAM usage. This makes Mistle universally applicable to large search spaces, e.g. covering comprehensive sequence databases of diverse microbiomes.

An alternative method for lithium isotope amount ratio analysis based on a combination of high-resolution atomic absorption spectrometry and spectral data analysis by machine learning (ML) is proposed herein. It is based on the well-known isotope shift of approximately 15 pm for the electronic transition 22P←22S at around the wavelength of 670.8 nm, which can be measured by the state-of-the-art high-resolution continuum source graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry. For isotope amount ratio analysis, a scalable tree boosting ML algorithm (XGBoost) was employed and calibrated using a set of samples with 6Li isotope amount fractions, ranging from 0.06 to 0.99 mol mol–1, previously determined by a multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (MC-ICP-MS). The calibration ML model was validated with two certified reference materials (LSVEC and IRMM-016). The procedure was applied toward the isotope amount ratio determination of a set of stock chemicals (Li2CO3, LiNO3, LiCl, and LiOH) and a BAM candidate reference material NMC111 (LiNi1/3Mn1/3Co1/3O2), a Li-battery cathode material. The results of these determinations were compared with those obtained by MC-ICP-MS and found to be metrologically comparable and compatible. The residual bias was −1.8‰, and the precision obtained ranged from 1.9 to 6.2‰. This precision was sufficient to resolve naturally occurring variations, as demonstrated for samples ranging from approximately −3 to +15‰. To assess its suitability to technical applications, the NMC111 cathode candidate reference material was analyzed using high-resolution continuum source atomic absorption spectrometry with and without matrix purification. The results obtained were metrologically compatible with each other.
