Hi David,

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, this does not help as the
PeptideProphet probability score does not translate to xcorr and
deltacn cutoffs I am using, i.e. (Xcorr +1=1.9, +2=2.2, +3=3.5, and
deltacn scores of > or = to 0.08. That is, probability scores as low
as 0 appear in my post-xcorr and deltacn filtered list. I am concerned
that I will end up with false protein groups assignments in
ProteinProphet if I do not use the actual list of peptides which pass
the above xcorr and deltacn criteria. There must be another way to
this end. Such as,

1) Is there a way to write filtered results from the PeptdieProphet
viewer to a .xml file for input into ProteinProphet?
2) Is there a way to convert the .xls output from PeptidePropher
viewer to an .xml file for input into ProteinProphet?
3) Does ProteinProphet tolerate any other input file format aside from
a PeptideProphet formatted .xml file?
4) Are there any ProteinProhet commands which will direct
ProteinProphet to utilize the xcorr and deltacn cutoffs I desire that
I can use at the command line?

Thanks much for whatever insights you can provide!!!

Nick
