STEPP: SVM Technique for Evaluating Proteotypic Peptides Description

STEPP is an advanced utility designed to compute a score representing how "proteotypic" a peptide is by LC-MS. The program can read a protein file, perform an in-silico digestion, and compute the observability score for each tryptic or partially tryptic peptide. Note that larger (positive) scores mean a peptide is predicted to be more proteotypic while lower (negative) scores mean the peptide is not predicted to be proteotypic. The SVM model used by STEPP is a simple descriptor space based on 35 properties of amino acid content, charge, hydrophilicity, and polarity for the quantitative prediction of proteotypic peptides. The model was trained and validated with three independently derived AMT databases (Shewanella oneidensis, Salmonella typhimurium, Yersinia pestis). The SVM resulted in an average accuracy measure of ~0.8 with a standard deviation of less than 0.025.
