sdrf-pipelines

The SDRF pipelines provide a set of tools to validate and convert SDRF files to different workflow configuration files such as MSstats,OpenMS and MaxQuant.

Installation

pip install sdrf-pipelines

Validate the SDRF

How to use it:

Then, you can use the tool by executing the following command:

parse_sdrf validate-sdrf --sdrf_file {here_the_path_to_sdrf_file}

Convert to OpenMS: Usage

parse_sdrf convert-openms -s sdrf.tsv

Description:

• experiment settings (search engine settings etc.)
• experimental design

The experimental settings file contains one row for every raw file. Columns contain relevevant parameters like precursor mass tolerance, modifications etc. These settings can usually be derived from the sdrf file.

The experimental design file contains information how to unambiguously map a single quantitative value. Most entries can be derived from the sdrf file. However, definition of conditions might need manual changes.

• Fraction_Group identifier that indicates which fractions belong together. In the case of label-free data, the fraction group identifier has the same cardinality as the sample identifier.
• The Fraction identifier indicates which fraction was measured in this file. In the case of unfractionated data the fraction identifier is 1 for all samples.
• The Label identifier. 1 for label-free, 1 and 2 for SILAC light/heavy, e.g. 1-10 for TMT10Plex
• The Spectra_Filepath (e.g., path = "/data/SILAC_file.mzML")
• MSstats_Condition the condition identifier as used by MSstats
• MSstats_BioReplicate an identifier to indicate replication. (MSstats requires that there are no duplicate entries. E.g., if MSstats_Condition, Fraction_Group group and Fraction number are the same - as in the case of biological or technical replication, one uses the MSstats_BioReplicate to make entries non-unique)

Fraction_Group	Fraction	Spectra_Filepath	Label	MSstats_Condition	MSstats_BioReplicate

Convert to MaxQuant: Usage

parse_sdrf convert-maxquant -s sdrf.tsv -f {here_the_path_to_protein_database_file} -m {True or False} -pef {default 0.01} -prf {default 0.01} -t {temporary folder} -r {raw_data_folder} -n {number of threads:default 1} -o1 {parameters(.xml) output file path} -o2 {maxquant experimental design(.txt) output file path}

eg.

parse_sdrf convert-maxquant -s /root/ChengXin/Desktop/sdrf.tsv -f /root/ChengXin/MyProgram/search_spectra/AT/TAIR10_pep_20101214.fasta -r /root/ChengXin/MyProgram/virtuabox/share/raw_data/ -o1 /root/ChengXin/test.xml -o2 /root/ChengXin/test_exp.xml -t /root/ChengXin/MyProgram/virtuabox/share/raw_data/ -pef 0.01 -prf 0.01 -n 4

• -s : SDRF file
• -f : fasta file
• -r : spectra raw file folder
• -mcf : MaxQuant default configure path (if given, Can add new modifications)
• -m : via matching between runs to boosts number of identifications
• -pef : posterior error probability calculation based on target-decoy search
• -prf : protein score = product of peptide PEPs (one for each sequence)
• -t : place on SSD (if possible) for faster search，It is recommended not to be the same as the raw file directory
• -n : each thread needs at least 2 GB of RAM,number of threads should be ≤ number of logical cores available(otherwise, MaxQuant can crash)

Description

• maxquant parameters file (mqpar.xml)
• maxquant experimental design file (.txt)

The maxquant parameters file mqpar.xml contains the parameters required for maxquant operation.some settings can usually be derived from the sdrf file such as enzyme, fixed modification, variable modification, instrument, fraction and label etc.Set other parameters as default.The current version of maxquant supported by the script is 1.6.10.43

The maxquant experimental design file contains name,Fraction,Experiement and PTM column.Most entries can be derived from the sdrf file.

• Name raw data file name.
• Fraction In the Fraction column you must assign if the corresponding files shown in the left column belong to a fraction of a gel fraction. If your data is not obtained through gel-based pre-fractionation you must assign the same number(default 1) for all files in the column Fraction.
• Experiment In the column named as Experiment if you want to combine all experimental replicates as a single dataset to be analyzed by MaxQuant, you must enter the same identifier for the files which should be concatenated . However, if you want each individual file to be treated as a different experiment which you want to compare further you should assign different identifiers to each of the files as shown below.

Name	Fraction	Experiment	PTM
130402_08.raw	1	sample 1_Tr_1
130412_08.raw	1	sample 2_Tr_1
