David,

I was wondering if you could assist us with some information on the best
way to merge files. I was of the understanding that InterProphet is for
use when merging the outputs of different search algorithms, and that
peptideProphet should be used to merge files searched by the same
algorithm, e.g.

If you had M files, each searched using N algorithms, peptideProphet
should be used to merge the M outputs of each search algorithm, and then
N files merged together with InterProphet.

I can't see IPROPHET in the option list of the Petunia interface for
ProteinProphet (although it is listed in the command line). We have :

TPP v4.4 JETSTREAM (unstable development prerelease) rev 0, Build
201007011135 (linux) 

Is there a newer version we should be using?

Regards

Hi Rachel,
 
It is limited only by the amout of memory you have on your system.
The memory req scales linearly with number of spectra being combined.
Obviously the more spectra that are analysed together the better the
statistics are going to be, but this too has a practical limit. Once
you have the individual iProphet pepxmls you should not run iProphet
on them again since you'll run into the same memory issue. Instead
this is a perfect time to run ProteinProphet on the iProphet files and
specify the IPROPHET option to make sure it uses iProphet
probabilities.
