iTRAQ4: iTRAQ 4-plex set

Description

This instance of class "ReporterIons" corresponds to the iTRAQ 4-plex set, i.e the 114, 115, 116 and 117 isobaric tags. In the iTRAQ5 data set, an unfragmented tag, i.e reporter and attached isobaric tag, is also included at MZ 145. These objects are used to plot the reporter ions of interest in an MSMS spectra (see "Spectrum2") as well as for quantification (see quantify).

Usage

iTRAQ4
iTRAQ5
iTRAQ8
iTRAQ9
