Introduction
nfcore/diaproteomics is a bioinformatics analysis pipeline used for quantitative processing of data independant (DIA) proteomics data (preprint available here).
The workflow is based on the OpenSwathWorkflow for SWATH-MS proteomic data. DIA RAW files (mzML) serve as inputs and library search is performed based on a given input spectral library. Optionally, spectral libraries can be generated (EasyPQP) from multiple matched DDA measurments and respective search results. Generated libraries can then further be aligned applying a pairwise RT alignment and concatenated into a single large library. In the same way internal retention time standarts (irts) can be either supplied or generted by the workflow in order to align library and DIA measurements into the same retention time space. FDR rescoring is applied using Pyprophet based on a competitive target-decoy approach on peakgroup or global peptide and protein level. In a last step DIAlignR for chromatogram alignment and quantification is carried out and a csv of peptide quantities, MSstats based protein statistics and several visualisations are exported.

Quick Start
-
Install
nextflow
-
Install any of
Docker
,Singularity
,Podman
,Shifter
orCharliecloud
for full pipeline reproducibility (please only useConda
as a last resort; see docs) -
Download the pipeline and test it on a minimal dataset with a single command:
Please check nf-core/configs to see if a custom config file to run nf-core pipelines already exists for your Institute. If so, you can simply use
-profile <institute>
in your command. This will enable eitherdocker
orsingularity
and set the appropriate execution settings for your local compute environment. -
Start running your own analysis!
OR optionally:
See usage docs for all of the available options when running the pipeline.
Pipeline Summary
By default, the pipeline currently performs the following:
- Optional spectral library generation from DDA input (‘EasyPQP’)
- DIA Targeted Extraction (‘OpenSwathWorkflow’)
- False discovery rate estimation (‘Pyprophet’)
- Chromatogram alignment (‘DIAlignR’)
- Statistical postprocessing (‘MSstats’)
Documentation
The nf-core/diaproteomics pipeline comes with documentation about the pipeline: usage and output.
