bioRxiv · Detection of human unannotated microproteins by mass spectrometry-based proteomics: a community assessmentThousands of short open reading frames (sORFs) are translated outside of annotated coding sequences. Recent studies have pioneered searching for sORF-encoded microproteins in mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics and peptidomics datasets. Here, we assessed literature-reported MS-based identifications of unannotated human proteins. We find that studies vary by three orders of magnitude in the number of unannotated proteins they report. Of nearly 10,000 reported sORF-encoded peptides, 96% were unique to a single study, and 12% mapped to annotated proteins or proteoforms. Manual curation of a benchmark dataset of 406 manually evaluated spectra from 204 sORF-encoded proteins revealed large variation in peptide-spectrum match (PSM) quality between studies, with immunopeptidomics studies generally reporting higher quality PSMs than conventional enzymatic digests of whole cell lysates. We estimate that 65% of predicted sORF-encoded protein detections in immunopeptidomics studies were supported by high-quality PSMs versus 7.8% in non-immunopeptidomics datasets. Our work stresses the need for standardized protocols and analysis workflows to guide future advancements in microprotein detection by MS towards uncovering how many human microproteins exist. ### Competing Interest Statement J.R.P. has received research honoraria from Novartis Biosciences and is a paid consultant for ProFound Therapeutics.

Let me explain in the following #thread why the (auto-)citation of Davtian et al. (2018) Organic Geochemistry—my second first-authored #PhD #scientific #publication—by De Jonge et al. (2024) Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems matters to me and my current CEREGE colleagues at CEREGE

I am so glad to be one of the two ICTA-UAB representants—the other is Joan Villanueva—for the interlaboratory #study led by Cindy De Jonge and Francien Peterse!

The startup message of the #MSnbase package for #MassSpectrometry and #Proteomics has been update in version 2.29.2, and now officially asks users to look into the #RforMassSpectrometry initiative packages:

> library(MSnbase)
This is MSnbase version 2.29.2
Visit lgatto.github.io/MSnbase/ to get started.
Consider switching to the 'R for Mass Spectrometry'
packages - see RforMassSpectrometry.org for details.

lgatto.github.ioBase Functions and Classes for Mass Spectrometry and ProteomicsMSnbase provides infrastructure for manipulation, processing and visualisation of mass spectrometry and proteomics data, ranging from raw to quantitative and annotated data.

Life is funny sometimes. In the fall of 2021 I ended up chatting with my neighbor on a flight from Frankfurt to Philly. He asks what I do for work. I said that I wrote software for the analysis of #RNA modifications by #massSpectrometry. He seemed impressed, and asked if I was familiar with the work of Katalin #Karikó. I told him "of course". He very proudly responded "I'm her husband" and pulled out a photo of them together with their daughter and the king of Spain. 1/x

Hi everyone,

I'm Sarah, a #chemistry prof at Hanover College in Indiana. My PhD work was in #membrane #protein #massspectrometry and now I've got a special interest in anything #neuro related! I teach an entire course on the biochemistry of psychoactive drugs and I'm still trying to get into research in that field because its super interesting to me! In the mean time I'm doing some #lcms of #cannabinoids and focusing on teaching.
