Abstract
BackgroundLiquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based quantitative phosphoproteomics has been widely used to detect thousands of protein phosphorylation modifications simultaneously from the biological specimens. However, the complicated procedures for analyzing phosphoproteomics data has become a bottleneck to widening its application. MethodsHere, we develop PhosMap, a versatile and scalable tool to accomplish phosphoproteomics data analysis. A standardized phosphorylation data format was created for data analyses, from data preprocessing to downstream bioinformatic analyses such as dimension reduction, differential phosphorylation analysis, kinase activity, survival analysis, and so on. For better usability, we distribute PhosMap as a Docker image for easy local deployment upon any of Windows, Linux, and Mac system. ResultsThe source code is deposited at https://github.com/BADD-XMU/PhosMap. A free PhosMap webserver (https://huggingface.co/spaces/Bio-Add/PhosMap), with easy-to-follow fashion of dashboards, is curated for interactive data analysis. ConclusionsPhosMap fills the technical gap of large-scale phosphorylation research by empowering researchers to process their own phosphoproteomics data expediently and efficiently, and facilitates better data interpretation.
