What type of signal processing can I perform?

You can perform smoothing with Gaussian filters, centroiding of profile data, normalization, and various spectral filtering techniques.

Does it integrate with data analysis libraries like Pandas?

Yes, PyOpenMS objects like FeatureMaps can be easily exported to Pandas DataFrames for further statistical analysis and visualization.

Which search engines are supported for identification?

PyOpenMS integrates with several identification engines including Comet, Mascot, MSGFPlus, XTandem, OMSSA, and Myrimatch.

Can I use this for metabolomics data?

Yes, it includes specific capabilities for untargeted metabolomics, including preprocessing, feature detection, retention time alignment, and compound annotation.

What file formats does the PyOpenMS skill support?

It supports a wide range of mass spectrometry formats including mzML, mzXML, TraML, mzTab, FASTA, pepXML, protXML, mzIdentML, and more.
