Hi there,

I'm looking to search orbitrap data against a strain specific protein 
database to annotate the peptides and build a SpectraST library. I would 
like to widen the search for possible PTMs as we currently have no data 
regarding the use of PTMs for regulation. 

I'm a little confused as to the format of the tandem.params.xml file for 
including possible phosphorylation modifications to peptides. 

I get that the modification mass element will look something like this for 
M oxidation and STY phosphorylation

<note type="input" label="residue, potential modification 
mass">15.994915@M,79.66633@S,79.66633@T,79.66633@Y</note>

But I'm not sure whether I should be setting the value of 

<note type="input" label="residue, potential modification motif"></note>

as well. Should I be using this to set the -80 and -98 values for neutral 
loss?

Does anyone have a good example of what a tandem.params.xml file looks like 
when including common modifications in the search?

Many thanks,

Ben
