Program: PeptideSearch.
Search a non-redundant protein database with a sequence tag, AA
sequence, and peptide mass data. The standalone program and database can
be downloaded from EMBL Protein and Peptide group. You will need to obtain a
password for use from Matthias Mann, but since Matthias left for the University
of Southern Denmark you might try the current group leader Matthias Wilm first
wilm@embl-heidelberg.de. The last update on the EMBL ftp server was Sept.
1997. This program and Matthias helped me out when I arrived at a company with
limited resources and no ms searchable database. Update: Peptide search is now a
module called
PepSea available as part of a software package offered for sale at
Protana. A current database can still be obtained at EMBL.
