Documents in Progress

mzIdentML version 1.3.0 in public review (until April 8th 2024)

The PSI Proteomics Informatics Working Group has submitted a new recommendation for consideration and review as a PSI standard. The mzIdentML document, draft of version 1.3.0, defines an XML schema that can be used to describe the outputs of proteomics search engines or similar software for peptide/protein identification from mass spectrometry  (MS) data with an extension document for the identification of crosslinked peptides.

After having been reviewed by the PSI steering group and revised as requested by an internal reviewer, the proposed documents, mzIdentML draft of version 1.3.0 and the crosslinking extension document, now go through the 45-day public and external review until April 8th, 2024.

The mzIdentML document (draft of version 1.3.0), a word document tracking changes from version 1.2.0, the crosslinking extension document, and the example files are available on GitHub as detailed below.

The specification has been resubmitted to the PSI Document Process and is undergoing community review. Ratification to formally become a PSI standard is anticipated in 2024.
