Mascot is a powerful search engine which uses mass spectrometry data to identify proteins from primary sequence databases. Mascot integrates all of the proven methods of searching: Peptide Mass Fingerprint (the only experimental data are peptide mass values), Sequence Query (peptide mass data are combined with amino acid sequence and composition information), MS/MS Ion Search using uninterpreted MS/MS data from one or more peptides.

The Open Mass Spectrometry Search Algorithm (OMSSA) is an efficient search engine for identifying MS/MS peptide spectra by searching libraries of known protein sequences. OMSSA scores significant hits with a probability score developed using classical hypothesis testing, the same statistical method used in BLAST.

QuickMod is a spectral library search based MSMS data analysis tool, designed to identify modified peptides. The QuickMod algorithm assumes that the precursor mass difference between a query spectrum and a candidate library spectrum can be explained by a modification. Based on this assumption the two spectra are aligned and the fit of the spectral alignment is assigned a similarity score. In a second step the most likely attachment position of the modification is determined.
