Hi Nikhil,

I have found a solution for this batch processing problem with
proteome discoverer. I wrote a perl script to run DeconMSn (PNNL)
software to generate dta files from raw files and also run sequest to
search my spectra against the db. The Proteome Discoverer doesn t come
with a sequest.params file to run sequest on DOS, so I got one with
Thermo tech support. Finally I use Unitemare (yates lab) to join
the .out results into a .sqt file to analyse with DTASelect (yates
lab).

Let me know if you want a copy of this script to run with your data.

Regards,

Daniel
