linear polymer mass spectrometry software

massXpert is a program to simulate and analyse mass spectrometric
data obtained on linear (bio-)polymers. It is the successor of GNU
polyxmass.

Four modules allow:
- making brand new polymer chemistry definitions;
- using the definitions to perform easy calculations in a desktop
calculator-like manner;
- performing sophisticated polymer sequence editing and simulations;
- perform m/z list comparisons;

Chemical simulations encompass cleavage (either chemical or
enzymatic), gas-phase fragmentations, chemical modification of any
monomer in the polymer sequence, cross-linking of monomers in the
sequence, arbitrary mass searches, calculation of the isotopic
pattern...
