Decoy-Target Database Strategy And False Discovery Rate Analysis For Glycan Identification, Xiaoou Li
Decoy-Target Database Strategy And False Discovery Rate Analysis For Glycan Identification, Xiaoou Li
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
In recent years, the technology of glycopeptide sequencing through MS/MS mass spectrometry data has achieved remarkable progress. Various software tools have been developed and widely used for protein identification. Estimation of false discovery rate (FDR) has become an essential method for evaluating the performance of glycopeptide scoring algorithms. The target-decoy strategy, which involves constructing decoy databases, is currently the most popular utilized method for FDR calculation. In this study, we applied various decoy construction algorithms to generate decoy glycan databases and proposed a novel approach to calculate the FDR by using the EM algorithm and mixture model.

Summary
This paper suggests a novel positive false discovery rate (pFDR) controlling method for testing gene-specific hypotheses using a gene-specific covariate variable, such as gene length. We suppose the null probability depends on the covariate variable. In this context, we propose a rejection rule that accounts for heterogeneity among tests by employing two distinct types of null probabilities. We establish a pFDR estimator for a given rejection rule by following Storey's q-value framework. A condition on a type 1 error posterior probability is provided that equivalently characterizes our rejection rule. We also present a suitable procedure for selecting a tuning …
