  Abstract

Summary: DAnTE (Data Analysis Tool Extension) is a statistical tool designed to address challenges associated with quantitative bottom-up, shotgun proteomics data. This tool has also been demonstrated for microarray data and can easily be extended to other high-throughput data types. DAnTE features selected normalization methods, missing value imputation algorithms, peptide to protein rollup methods, an extensive array of plotting functions, and a comprehensive hypothesis testing scheme that can handle unbalanced data and random effects. The Graphical User Interface (GUI) is designed to be very intuitive and user friendly.

Availability: DAnTE may be downloaded free of charge at http://ncrr.pnl.gov/software/

Contact: rds{at}pnl.gov or proteomics{at}pnl.gov

Supplementary information: An example dataset with instructions on how to perform a series of analysis steps is available at http://ncrr.pnl.gov/software/
