FragHub: A Mass Spectral Library Data Integration Workflow
Résumé
Open mass spectral libraries (OMSLs) are critical for metabolite annotation and machine learning, especially given the rising volume of untargeted metabolomic studies and the development of annotation pipelines. Despite their importance, the practical application of OMSLs is hampered by the lack of standardized file formats, metadata fields, and supporting ontology. Current libraries, often restricted to specific topics or matrices, such as natural products, lipids, or the human metabolome, may limit the discovery potential of untargeted studies. The goal of FragHub is to provide users with the capability to integrate various OMSLs into a single unified format, thereby enhancing the annotation accuracy and reliability. FragHub addresses these challenges by integrating multiple OMSLs into a single comprehensive database, supporting various data formats, and harmonizing metadata. It also proposes some generic filters for the mass spectrum using a graphical user interface. Additionally, a workflow to generate in-house libraries compatible with FragHub is proposed. FragHub dynamically segregates libraries based on ionization modes and chromatography techniques, thereby enhancing data utility in metabolomic research. The FragHub Python code is publicly available under a MIT license, at the following repository: https://github.com/eMetaboHUB/FragHub. Generated data can be accessed at 10.5281/zenodo.11057687.
