摘要

Peak information extraction is an important step for all types of protein NMR experiments, from structure determination to titration experiments. In most cases, extraction of peak information, or peak-picking, is done semi-automatically or manually, relying on the spectroscopist’s expertise to guard against errors in the algorithm. Optimus Peak is designed for fully automatic peak-picking in multi-dimensional protein NMR spectra for both solid-state and solution NMR. The program shows a low false positive rate, due to its more robust evolutionary algorithm-based fitting. The program is also designed to fit together with other programs by being implemented as a terminal based command line program. Optimus Peak was tested using both solid-state and solution NMR experiments, for both 2D and 3D experiments, using 67 spectra from 12 different proteins, consisting of 26 different types of NMR experiments.
