MaxLFQ Intensity Vs Intensity #774

Hi,
I analyzed over 300 raw files (all samples are in triplicates unless some files crashed while running and were removed in order to continue) using Fragpipe with ionquant. I recently updated the versions for Fragpipe and Philospher as it showed new update downloads. With the earlier version, there were Intensity, total and Unique Intensity and corresponding LFQ values. In the recent version there are only Intensity and MaxLFQ Intensity in the output.
I am uncertain which value should I use. the goal is to compare relative intensities of a few proteins in all these samples that were run on a single ORBITRAP instrument. I have noticed that some proteins (with family members/ isoforms) have a high MaxLFQ intensity values while the corresponding Intensity is zero and also vice versa in combined protein file. Looking at the corresponding combined peptides file, I noticed that there are unique peptides for all the family members/ isoforms.
I am not sure why the MaxLFQ values are higher if the Intensity is zero? Can you please explain.
Thank you,
Kind regards,
Shikha

Hi Shikha,

Here (https://fragpipe.nesvilab.org/docs/tutorial_fragpipe_outputs.html#combined_proteintsv) has the explanation of all those intensities. The "Intensity" is from top-N algorithm (https://www.mcponline.org/article/S1535-9476(20)35104-5/fulltext), and the "MaxLFQ Intensity" is from MaxLFQ algorithm (https://www.mcponline.org/article/S1535-9476(21)00050-5/fulltext). Depends on your top-N settings, the "Intensity" could be zero but the "MaxLFQ Intensity" is not.

Best,

Fengchao

I have no idea about the issue in Scaffold, but FragPipe has the visualization module now. You can have a try.

Best,

Fengchao

Hi Shikha,

Thanks for your information. So, what should we do to make is compatible with Scaffold?

As to the changes regarding the intensity, we stop listing razor, unique, and total intensities, which is a little bit overwhelming. We added a new dropdown menu called peptide-protein uniqueness in the Quant (MS1) tab to control what kind of intensity to report.

Best,

Fengchao
