Hi
We are using Pepstat for molecular weight calculations and subsequent 
comparison with mass spectrometric determined masses.
I am looking for the mass table used for the molecular weight calculations of 
the proteins in order to determine the accuracy. And how it could be possible 
to change it.

The other question is implementation of a molecular weight assuming that the 
cysteins form disulfide bridges.
                             This question is related to my first line. Since 
we compare the intact molecular weight of the proteins we want to be as precise 
as possible and thus measure the difference between reduced and oxidized 
cystein residues. Most proteins with cystein residues form disulfide bridges.
                             Would it be possible to include a molecular weight 
calculation which takes disulfide bridges into account? So that an even nr of 
cysteins are calculated with the mass of oxidized  cysteins (S-S) and if there 
should be an single cystein left then it is calculated with a sulfhydryl group 
(SH)?
