Bruker ProteoScape™ (BPS) is a GPU-powered platform delivering parallel computing capabilities and real-time database search results for bottom-up proteomics.
TIMScore provides the greatest number of PSM, peptide and protein identifications by enabling the CCS dimension for true 4D-Proteomics.
The PaSER search algorithm is run as normal, combined with comparison of the predicted and measured CCS values and calculating a TIMScore for the top 5 peptide candidates for each spectra. The TIMScore benefit is realized during the peptide-validation and False Discovery Rate (FDR) estimation steps. With TIMScore, and the extra CCS dimension, the peptide-candidates can be vectorized in 3 dimensions allowing a discriminate contoured plane to be applied to achieve the same 1% error.
Real-time results to inform you of current instrument and sample status
Analysis Time
Database searches take time, eliminate this step with uncompromised search results as soon as the acquisition is complete.
Instrument Time
Be sure every minute counts, with PaSER you can be assured that your instrument time is spent in the most meaningful way.
Precious Samples
Save those precious samples! Whether they are single cell, clinical, SILAC or enriched PTMs; PaSER’s smarts will make sure they are not wasted.
Costs
Instrument time, reagents and sample preparation are costly. PaSER and Run & Done will save money because you are assured you are producing meaningful data.

Applications
TIMScore™ – Machine Learning and CCS exploited for better FDR
TIMScore provides the greatest number of PSM, peptide and protein identifications by enabling the CCS dimension for true 4D-Proteomics.
The PaSER search algorithm is run as normal, combined with comparison of the predicted and measured CCS values and calculating a TIMScore for the top 5 peptide candidates for each spectra. The TIMScore benefit is realized during the peptide-validation and False Discovery Rate (FDR) estimation steps.
In a non CCS-enabled algorithm, only two dimensions can be utilized to estimate the FDR rate, and so a discriminate line is fit to a 1% error (Panel A) to distinguish forward and reverse peptide candidates. With TIMScore, and the extra CCS dimension, the peptide-candidates can be vectorized in 3 dimensions (Panel B) allowing a discriminate contoured plane to be applied to achieve the same 1% error. Applying a discriminate plane provides increased accuracy and precision, helping to validate formerly poorly scoring PSMs in the standard two dimensions.
dia-PASEF workflows streamlined on PaSER with TIMS DIA-NN
PaSER 2022 is capable of processing dia-PASEF workflows utilizing a customized version of the popular DIA-NN (DIA by Neural Networks) software from the Lilley, Rasler and Demichev labs. TIMS DIA-NN enables reliable, robust, and quantitatively accurate large-scale experiments. PaSER utilizes the same stream mechanism for dia-PASEF workflows, streaming in real-time MS and DIA frames from the acquisition PC to the PaSER box. These dia-PASEF data are processed and stored on the PaSER box. At the end of the acquisition a spectral library search is triggered, and the results recorded. TIMScore powered DDA search results can be easily utilized to build spectral libraries or spectral libraries can be imported from other popular tools. At the end of the project the users can trigger match-between-runs analysis to view a quantitative profile across projects. This provides users an integrated environment for PASEF and dia-PASEF data analysis.
Y-axis are counts and X-axis is total K562 peptide loaded on column in nanograms. The gradient length was 35 minutes, supporting 30 samples per day with all experiments performed on a timsTOF Pro 2.
Full-fledged database search in less than 5 ms
Blazing search speed with uncompromised search results.
A) Protein ID from replicate DDA runs of a human cell lysate using PaSER for real-time results and benchmarked against MaxQuant
B) Peptide ID from replicate DDA runs of a human cell lysate using PaSER for real-time results and benchmarked against MaxQuant
C) PaSER and MaxQuant identify 97% of the same proteins and nearly 90% of the same peptides.
PaSER provides consistent results obtained from the real-time search, identical to offline search of the same data. Since the database search algorithm is run on the GPU, the search times are negligible compared to CPU based searches.
In addition to real-time search the opportunity to search a larger space for specific applications, including including peptidome studies, becomes reality. PaSER benchmarked against the gold standard in DDA searches performs as good or better.
See what you have always been missing
TIMS Viz provides the powerful ability to view 4-D proteomics data like never seen before. The mobility separation and focusing upstream from the quadrapole and TOF result in the separation of isobaric and near isobaric species. Using other technologies and in the case of PTM enrichments and the analysis of complex samples it is common that co-eluting species that are isobaric or near isobaric in mass co-fragment. The timsTOF Pro/flex obviates this by first separating ions by their collisional cross section. The ability to visualize, search and sort on such events has never been available before. We term isobaric masses with different mobility values mobility offset mass aligned (MOMA), and TIMS Viz can tease such events out within complex runs. TIMS Viz allows you to set tolerances to your discretion while simultaneously overlaying both features and PSMs that were observed post database search. TIMS Viz enables you to view what you never knew was there before.
