Hi Jimmy,
Thank you for your response!
I worked with kind of samples like b1369p080_sample_01_a . There are 14 of
them, each divided to fractions _a and _b. I merged the fractions and did
search on 14 raw files.
I did not take into account that those are high-res MS/MS. Thank you for a
valuable notice and suggested parameters.
The fact that you also identified just a few high-scoring PSMs suggests
that maybe my input parameters were not far from yours.I attach comet.params
file. I will appreciate your comments on it.
