Without more info, here's my educated guess at an explanation:  that
peptide is not a fully tryptic peptide in the proteins you list as it is
preceded by a methionine residue.  For isoform P06396-2, the preceding
methionine is the first residue of the sequence and I'm assuming you did a
Comet search with the "clip_nterm_methionine
<http://comet-ms.sourceforge.net/parameters/parameters_201801/clip_nterm_methionine.php>"
parameter set to "1".  With that start methionine removed, this allowed
that peptide to be fully tryptic in that particular isoform hence only that
isoform is listed as a matched protein.  The enzyme context does matter
with RefreshParser; it's simply not a peptide string match.
