Abstract
En 中文
Top-down proteomics (TDP) is a powerful approach for characterizing intact protein molecules and their diverse proteoforms. Despite recent advances, current TDP software tools often suffer from fragmented workflows, steep learning curves for non-experts, or limited interactive visualization capabilities. To address these challenges, we introduce TDEase, an integrated analytical framework designed to streamline and enhance TDP data interpretation, with a current focus on integration with the TopPIC suite package for targeted proteoform characterization. TDEase features a modular architecture comprising TDPipe, a multi-process data processing engine, and TDVis, an interactive web-based visualization module. TDPipe automates the execution of mainstream TDP analysis algorithms through a user-configurable pipeline, ensuring seamless and reproducible data processing. The TDVis module then transforms these results into dynamic, interactive dashboards, enabling multidimensional data exploration, including feature maps and PTM analysis. An alternative version, TDVisWeb, is also available for visualizing the results on an internet server or intranet workstation at institutional core facilities. We demonstrated the software capabilities in proteoform identification and comparative analysis using published histone datasets. TDEase is built with Python and open-source, allowing future improvements and incorporation of more data types as the TDP community develops new software. Source code is available at https://github.com/Computational-TDMS/TDEase.
