MOWSE

MOWSE (for MOlecular Weight SEarch) is a method for identification of proteins from the molecular weight of peptides created by proteolytic digestion and measured with mass spectrometry.[1]

Development

The MOWSE algorithm was developed by Darryl Pappin at the Imperial Cancer Research Fund and Alan Bleasby at the SERC Daresbury Laboratory. The probability-based MOWSE score formed the basis of development of Mascot, a proprietary software for protein identification from mass spectrometry data.

gollark: oh no.
gollark: --exec ```pythonprint("--help")```
gollark: muahahaha the test instance now RESPONDS to BOTS
gollark: <@709333181983096834> ```pythonprint("--remind 1m test")```
gollark: I see.
