MSFragger is an ultrafast database search tool for peptide identification in mass spectrometry-based proteomics. It has demonstrated excellent performance across a wide range of datasets and applications. MSFragger is suitable for standard shotgun proteomics analyses as well as large datasets (including timsTOF PASEF data), enzyme unconstrained searches (e.g., peptidome), open database searches (e.g., precursor mass tolerance set to hundreds of Daltons) for identification of modified peptides, and glycopeptide identification (N-linked and O-linked).
MSFragger is available freely for academic research and educational purposes only, in accordance with the terms at https://msfragger.arsci.com/upgrader/MSFragger-LICENSE.pdf.

- Additional platforms:
Installation¶
You need a conda-compatible package manager (currently either pixi, conda, or micromamba) and the Bioconda channel already activated (see Usage). Below, we show how to install with either pixi or conda (for micromamba and mamba, commands are essentially the same as with conda).
Pixi¶
With pixi installed and the Bioconda channel set up (see Usage), to install globally, run:
pixi global install msfragger
to add into an existing workspace instead, run:
pixi add msfragger
In the latter case, make sure to first add bioconda and conda-forge to the channels considered by the workspace:
pixi workspace channel add conda-forge
pixi workspace channel add bioconda
Conda¶
With conda installed and the Bioconda channel set up (see Usage), to install into an existing and activated environment, run:
conda install msfragger
Alternatively, to install into a new environment, run:
conda create -n envname msfragger
with envname being the name of the desired environment.
Container¶
Alternatively, every Bioconda package is available as a container image for usage with your preferred container runtime. For e.g. docker, run:
docker pull quay.io/biocontainers/msfragger:<tag>
(see msfragger/tags for valid values for <tag>).
Integrated deployment¶
Finally, note that many scientific workflow management systems directly integrate both conda and container based software deployment. Thus, workflow steps can be often directly annotated to use the package, leading to automatic deployment by the respective workflow management system, thereby improving reproducibility and transparency. Check the documentation of your workflow management system to find out about the integration.
Notes¶
The "msfragger" command runs the MSFragger java program.
