Dear All,

I am a new user of TPP software. I am trying to set up the protocol for 
run.  I want to run my sample with Uniprot database. I've compared the 
results from the same files, the same settings but using two uniprot 
databases generated in diferent way:
1st database is a complete human proteome downloaded from the website_
ftp://ftp.uniprot.org/pub/databases/uniprot/current_release/knowledgebase/proteomes/
2nd database was generated manually and contains only the reviewed proteins 
(no isoforms, onlu canonical sequence data in FASTA format).

In both cases I created the concatenative databases and I used this for run 
in TPP.

After running the protein prophet and filtering the list according to 
Estimated sensitivity/ error rate (in both cases I keept only the protein 
with the particular probability, which corresponds to one incorrect 
proteins is 1). I compared the obtained list (enries) using Venn Diagram. 
And I found that more than 200 proteins in unique when we run the sample 
with Reviewed database. There is a lot of common proteins and among the 
group unique for complete proteome are mostly isoforms, or unreviewed 
protein of course.

Can somebody explain me why we get more unique additional protein if we run 
the sample with the reviewed/ shorter database?

Thank you for your help!
