Abstract:

As an introduction to this special session on Statistical and Computational Methods for Proteomics we survey some of the issues related to quantification in liquid-chromoatography mass-spectrometry (LC-MS) experiments. These data share some of the same issues as gene expression array data (e.g., high dimensionality and normalization), but they arise from a more complicated data-generation process and so a variety of aspects need to be understood prior to statistical analysis. We describe various types of output from LC-MS/MS experiments and provide some empirical observations about statistical models/methods used for quantifying and analyzing these data.
