Proteome-wide analyses most often rely on tandem mass spectrometry imposing considerable instrumental time consumption that is one of the main obstacles in a broader acceptance of proteomics in biomedical and clinical research. Recently, we presented a fast proteomic method termed DirectMS1 based on MS1-only mass spectra acquisition and data processing. The method allowed significant squeezing of the proteomewide analysis to a few minute time frame at the depth of quantitative proteome coverage of 1000 proteins at 1% FDR. In this work, to further increase the capabilities of the DirectMS1 method, we explored the opportunities presented by the recent progress in the machine learning area and applied the LightGBM tree-based learning algorithm into the scoring of peptide-feature matches when processing MS1 spectra. Further, we integrated the peptide feature identification algorithm of DirectMS1 with the recently introduced peptide retention time prediction utility, DeepLC.
