The MS/MS spectrum of a compound can be manually interpreted to understand its
structure. However, given the fact that manual interpretation of fragmentation spectra is time-intensive and often impractical, libraries containing spectra information have been developed to provide reliable source of metabolite identification.
In this work, by applying in silico fragmentation approach, a predicted MS/MS spectrum of a compound was created by compiling a list of fragment ions generated based on chemical bond cleavage of the compound structure. We develop a MS/MS search program which allows a user to search an experimental MS/MS data against our MyCompoundID database which contains 383,000 simulated MS/MS compounds for spectral match. A search program, DnsID, has been developed in MyCompoundID for automated identification of dansyl labeled metabolites. These methods allow user to narrow down the candidate-list which generated from MS search into one or a few unique structures. -
