Here we present a new software-tool for visualizing fragment ions and sequence coverage of intact proteins in top-down mass spectrometry. TDFragMapper combines the data arising from multiple and diverse tandem mass spectrometry experiments of intact proteins. Our tool maps fragment ions onto the protein backbone sequence and allows for a rapid comparison of the results obtained when varying experimental parameters in tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) experiments of intact proteins: fragmentation method, selected precursor charge state, activation level, technical replicate. In summary, TDFragMapper is a unique software-tool that allows an easy selection of the best experimental conditions leading to the highest confidence in intact protein sequence identification.
