Updated publication reference for PubMed record(s): 29489744. Picky is an online method designer for targeted proteomics. To assess the performance of PRM methods designed by Picky we carried out a benchmark experiment. As reference samples we used different amounts of human proteins spiked into 1.4 µg yeast lysate. These sample where analyzed in PRM and DDA mode. All methods inlcuded a shotgun method (top10 for DDA and top3 for PRM) and can therefore all be analyzed by MaxQuant.
