The invention belongs to the technical field of
glycomics, and discloses an N-
sugar chain structure identification Denovo method and
system based on
mass spectrometric data, and the method comprises the following steps: extracting structure and composition information of
sugar chain fragment ions in the
mass spectrometric data, and carrying out N-
sugar chain identification based on a basic peak, a cross peak and a generalized
monosaccharide dictionary, and reducing the search space of the identification result candidate structure by using a
pruning strategy to obtain an N-sugar
chain structure corresponding to the
mass spectrum. On the basis of
mass spectrum data of the N-sugar chain and the idea of Denovo, the structure and composition information of sugar chain fragment ions in the
mass spectrum data is extracted, and the N-sugar
chain structure corresponding to the
mass spectrum is identified. In the identification process, basic peaks and cross peaks are introduced, and N-
carbohydrate chain identification is carried out based on the basic peaks and the cross peaks; a generalized
monosaccharide dictionary is introduced, the
spectrogram quality is improved, and the robustness of the identification method to
noise in mass spectrum data is improved; and reducing the search space of the identification result candidate structure by using a
pruning strategy. According to the invention, the mass spectrum identification quality is improved.
