Hi David

Thanks for the reply. When I exported the PeptideProphet results and
compared 'Phenyx zscore' to fvalue, the transformation did not appear
to be linear. For around 20% of peptides, the (fvalue = zcore - 4) but
for the others there was a large amount of scatter and the
relationship appeared much more complex. Of course, this has a major
effect on the calculated probabilities vs. if zscore was used. Any
further advice would be much appreciated!

Many thanks
Matt
