The following table describes the information in the Results table on the Workbook Editor page for a target peptide workbook.

Workbook Editor Results table information

Column

Description

Component level

+/−

Select to show or hide the lower level of charge state information related to the current component row.

Row number (bolded)

The number assigned to each visible workbook row in the table. This sequential numbering does not change when you sort or filter the table.

(Checkbox)

Select this checkbox to export a workbook entry.

To select or clear all of the checkboxes at once, select or clear the checkbox in the column header.

If you filter the table, the following occurs:

  • Clearing all checkboxes affects all of the original rows in the table, before any filtering.
  • Selecting all checkboxes affects only the filtered and currently visible rows.

Level

Indicates that the row is displaying peptide information (top level).

(Various component information columns)

Normalized ID

Displays the same information as in the Identification column except that it is specific to an individual peptide in the sequence, derived from the conversion from protein to peptide form. This identification value always starts at position 1.

Normalized Site

Displays the same information as in the Site column except that it is specific to an individual peptide in the sequence, derived from the conversion from protein to peptide form. This site value is derived from the value in the Normalized ID column, not from the value in the Identification column.

Relative Quantitation Group Number

(Editable) Displays the group number that the application automatically assigns to each group of workbook entries with the same sequence and protein values, when you save the workbook.

This number groups together the peptides used in the abundance percentage calculation in the modification summary of a targeted peptide mapping experiment. You can edit this value to have full control of which peptides and charge states are part of this calculation.

This number starts at 1 for the first group and increases consecutively for each subsequent group.

Charge State Distribution

Displays the range of charge states detected for the component, from the lowest to the highest charge state.

See the Charge State column at the lower charge state level.

RT (min)

(Editable) Displays the peak retention time (RT) for the component from the raw data file with the most abundant MS area.

When you save the workbook from the Theoretical Protein/Peptide Manager page, this cell displays 0.00 because no retention time is not available.

RT Start (min)

(Editable) Displays the start of the retention time (RT) range for the component from the raw data file with the most abundant MS area.

When you save the workbook from the Theoretical Protein/Peptide Manager page, this cell displays 0.00 because no retention time is not available.

RT Stop (min)

(Editable) Displays the end of the retention time (RT) range for the component from the raw data file with the most abundant MS area.

When you save the workbook from the Theoretical Protein/Peptide Manager page, this cell displays 0.00 because no retention time is not available.

Protein Name

(Editable) Displays the identified protein for the component.

Charge state level

+/−

Select to show or hide the lower level of isotope information related to the current component row.

Row number (bolded)

The number assigned to each visible charge state row in the table. This sequential numbering does not change when you sort or filter the table.

Level

Indicates that the row is displaying charge state information (lower level).

M/Z

Displays the mass-to-charge ratio of the calculated monoisotopic mass for each charge state from the raw data file with the most abundant MS area.

Charge State

Displays each charge state for the component from the first raw data file.

Mono Mass

Displays the monoisotopic mass for each charge state from the first raw data file.

Avg. Mass

Displays the average mass for each charge state from the first raw data file.

When you save the workbook from the Theoretical Protein/Peptide Manager page, this cell displays 0.00 because the average mass is not available.

MS Area

Displays the area for each charge state from the raw data file with the most abundant MS area.

When you save the workbook from the Theoretical Protein/Peptide Manager page, this cell displays 0.00 because the MS area is not available.

Number of Isotopes

Displays the number of isotopes for each charge state.

Isotope level

Row number (bolded)

The number assigned to each visible isotope row in the table. This sequential numbering does not change when you sort or filter the table.

Target m/z

Displays the target mass-to-charge ratio of an isotope.

Type

Displays the isotope type.
