I am running into a problem with ASAPRatio in TPP 4.6 that I didn't have
with 4.5.2

Peptides are labeled on the N-terminus or K with either D0 or D6, and then
combined for LC/MS.  Raw file converted to mzXML with msconvert.  I do
separate searches with Tandem specifying static modification on [ and K.
 One search for the light the another search for heavy labeled peptides,
same mzXML file two different tandem.xml files.  I created a directory
structure for the experiment with sub directories called light and heavy.
 I have not renamed the data file and hence, the tandem.xml files because
the light and heavy searches reside in different directories.

When I used ASAPRatio in TPP4.5.2 I would specify static modification
quantification, each run is either all heavy or all light, tell it n and K
were modified and run.  ASAPRatio would correctly quantify the light and
heavy peaks separated by 6 m/z for each modification.

Now in TPP 4.6 if I select static modifications, it throws an error saying
that you can't have variable modified n in static mode.  This did not occur
in 4.5.2.

Without selecting the static modification,no matter how I configure it the
ASAPRatio returns bogus results where it gets the quantitation for one
labeled partner at the correct m/z but chooses a seemingly unrelated m/z to
quantitate for the other labeled partner.

Could it be that I need to rename the data files so they are different and
redo the searches?  Do they also have to be in the same directory?  Or is
ASAPRatio broken in 4.6?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Brian
