Insilicos Announces Proteomics Software Suite Update
|
|
August 7, 2009, Seattle - Insilicos today announced the release of Trans-Proteomic Pipeline (TPP) version 4.3.0. The TPP is an open-source proteomics software tool suite originally developed by the Institute for Systems biology (ISB). For this release, Insilicos managed the software release and distribution process, at ISB's request.
The TPP is a complete proteomics software suite, containing analysis software such as the well-known PeptideProphet and ProteinProphet statistical proteomics tools, and is available for free download. Download information as well as details on the new features can be found in the 4.3.0 release announcement here.
While the TPP was originally developed by the Aebersold lab at ISB's Seattle Proteome Center, it is an "open-source" project with several contributors from outside of the ISB, including Insilicos. As the primary group outside of ISB working on the TPP, Insilicos maintains a close, ongoing working relationship with ISB. For this release, Insilicos built on their experience deploying the TPP on various Linux systems to implement a "continuous integration" build system, which automatically tests each change to the software on Windows and a variety of Linux platforms. As a result, the 4.3.0 release of the TPP has a more robust build system than ever before. Also, Insilicos included scripts with the TPP that should make a build system even easier to set up on those tested platforms.
"We're always trying to improve the TPP experience both for users and for other developers," said Insilicos software engineer Natalie Tasman. "This release has important new capabilities for both those developers modifying the open-source TPP code, and also for anyone using the TPP for high-throughput proteomics processing on a cluster or a 'cloud' deployment such as Amazon's EC2 system."
Users are encouraged to visit the TPP's support and discussion mailing list for information and assistance with installing and using the freely-available software.
The ISB SPC's work on the TPP is funded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute under contract N01-HV-28179. Insilicos' recent work on the TPP is funded by the National Human Genome Research Institute under grant HG004537.Insilicos LLC develops life science software for pharmaceutical development, biological research and clinical diagnostics.
