Scaffold Proteomics Data Mining Software Sold with Sage-N Sorcerer(TM) Systems for Low False Positive Protein ID Using Sequest(R) and Mascot(R).SAN JOSE San Jose, city, United States San Jose (sănəzā`, săn hōzā`), city (1990 pop. 782,248), seat of Santa Clara co., W central Calif.; founded 1777, inc. 1850. , Calif. -- Sage-N Research, Inc. (Sage-N) signed an agreement to distribute the Scaffold scaffold Temporary platform used to elevate and support workers and materials during work on a structure or machine. It consists of one or more wooden planks and is supported by either a timber or a tubular steel or aluminum frame; bamboo is used in parts of Asia. proteomics data mining software from Proteome pro·te·ome n. The complete set of proteins that are produced by the genes of an organism. proteome the entire complement of proteins produced by a cell. Software, primarily to use with Sorcerer (tool) SORCERER - A simple tree parser generator by Terence Parr <parrt@s1.arc.umn.edu>. SORCERER is suitable for translation problems lying between those solved by code generator generators and by full source-to-source translator generators. Integrated Data Appliances (IDAs). Under the terms of the agreement, Sage-N Research will sell standalone stand·a·lone adj. Self-contained and usually independently operating: a standalone computer terminal. Scaffold software as well as versions integrated into Sorcerer IDAs within North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere. , Europe, Japan, and Asia-Pacific (except for Taiwan). Biologists increasingly use mass spectrometers to identify protein forms in complex samples, but are hampered by today's software tools due to: (1) poor throughput, (2) difficulty in analyzing more than about 75,000 spectra from a single experiment, (3) inability to compare results from different experiments, (4) inability to compare different search engine results from the same experiment, (5) difficulty in providing false positive estimates, or (6) a closed software environment. In contrast, the latest Sorcerer IDA Ida (ē`dä), city (1990 pop. 91,859), Nagano prefecture, central Honshu, Japan, on the Tenryu River. It is an agricultural market and railway junction. with Scaffold breaks through each of these limitations by providing the first integrated proteomics solution that can handle up to one million spectra or more with built-in automated false positive estimation using reverse sequences. The new Sorcerer solution suite is designed specifically for biologists and does not require specialized expertise in mass spectrometry mass spectrometry or mass spectroscopy Analytic technique by which chemical substances are identified by sorting gaseous ions by mass using electric and magnetic fields. or IT. "The Sorcerer IDAs are already the gold standard for low maintenance, high throughput automated proteomics searching of large mass spectrometry datasets using Sequest," said David Chiang David Chiang Dai Wei (Chinese: 姜大衛) (June 29, 1947) is a Chinese actor. In 2004, David Chiang was inducted in The Avenue of Stars , modeled on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. It is located along the Victoria Harbour waterfront in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong. , C.E.O. of Sage-N Research. "Scaffold complements the Sorcerer automated tools to allow biologists to get deeper insights by interactively comparing different experiments and search engines." Scaffold runs on individual PCs or workstations using Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux. It will be sold by Sage-N Research as standalone software applications to work with existing Sorcerer workgroup IDA products, as well as integrated into future Sorcerer personal IDA products.
