Proteomics software is prone to filling up the disk with data and temp files, which can cause weird issues. This blog article lists the most common errors in Mascot products and how to free up disk space.

🎁 Season’s Greetings & Gratitude
Thanks for choosing us in 2025.
Wishing you a peaceful holiday season and a successful new year — from our team to yours!

Mascot Newsletter, December 2025:
NCBI nr FASTA replacement.
Immunoregulation during pregnancy.
Mascot Server as system service on Linux.
After a fair bit of frustration, our new excimer laser is installed! We have it coupled to an Element 2, and new laser plus sector magnet (rather than quadupole) mass spectrometry is a steep learning curve for me. Nice to spend the afternoon tinkering in the lab though.
When raw data is processed into peak lists, there is a choice: how should peak intensity be calculated? Mascot Distiller defaults to peak area. The alternative, signal-to-noise (S/N), can be useful with detecting diagnostic ions.

Mascot Newsletter, November 2025:
Top-3 quant with DDA-PASEF.
ZooMS peptide markers for South American Xenarthrans.
Migrating from Windows 10 to Linux could extend the lifetime of your hardware.
The NCBI nr FASTA file of protein sequences is no longer updated. We've summarised instructions for creating it from the BLAST database -- or you may be better off using TrEMBL.

Mascot Newsletter, October 2025:
Spectrum-centric DIA scoring.
Molecular mechanisms of SBK2 kinase on the heart.
Windows update issue with IIS (resolved).
Der Mann hat was neues für #Lupus gefunden - oder wie @kabalak selbst sagen würde:
In conclusion, this study uncovers a new dimension of immune crosstalk: a proteolytic plasma network that generates immunoactive fragments with intrinsic self-regulatory capabilities to modulate #inflammation and tissue injury in complex disease contexts. Deciphering these immunoactivities may pave the way for innovative diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in complement-driven pathologies, potentially benefiting a wide range of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

Mascot Daemon can export protein level quant intensities for replicate LFQ, SILAC and iTRAQ/TMT. The latest version can also export intensity values calculated using the "Top-3" method, illustrated here with DDA-PASEF data.
I just submitted my manuscript for November's meeting of the NVMS!

Probabilistic scoring of DIA matches without spectral deconvolution? Not only is it possible, we're working on implementing it in Mascot DIA.

I'm currently writing a paper in with positron and quarto. Managing to go from raw #massspec #proteomics data to papers in pdf for pre-print and docx for coauthors to easily coment and revise. It's pretty cool.

Mascot Newsletter, August 2025:
Precursor detection for spectrum-centric DIA.
Reconstructing mediaeval monastic diets.
Microsoft has announced the end of Windows 10 support; your Mascot Server may be affected.
Peptide identification in spectrum-centric DIA depends on accurate precursor mass. The upcoming version of Mascot Distiller includes a novel algorithm that deduces precursor masses from MS/MS scans.
