Abstract
A Rabbit myosin standard, like that used to create the empirical statistical model, was randomly and independently sampled by liquid chromatography micro electrospray ionization and tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS) with a linear quadrupole ion trap. The rabbit myosin protein standard appeared pure by SDS-PAGE and CBBR staining but showed many other proteins by silver staining. The LC-MS intensity from myosin and IgG samples were above the 99% safe limit of detection and quantification computed from 36 blank LC-ESI-MS/MS runs. The myosin contained ≤406 Gene Symbols, open reading frames or loci where 79 protein types showed ≥3 peptides from X!TANDEM. Myosins, actin, troponin, other proteins showed 95%–100% homology between the rabbit versus the human decoy library. The myosin protein complex from STRING was true positive compared to random or noise spectra MS/MS with a low type I error (p-value) and low FDR (q-value) computed in R. SDS-PAGE, Western blot, comparison to random and noise MS/MS spectra, X!TANDEM p-values, FDR corrected q-values, and STRING all agreed that the error rate of LC-ESI-MS/MS with a quadrupole ion trap is far below that assumed a priori by the design of the empirical statistical model for decoy library searching.
