Peptide counts don't match the number of peptides in the peptide sequence alignment view

Peptide counts don't match the number of peptides in the peptide sequence alignment view anette.karle  2012-08-13 03:42

For some new projects I realized the following: when doing the compare peptide functionality for a protein sequence the view for the aligned blue sequences does not match the distinct peptide counts given below the alignment view. The counts are in many cases higher than the ones shown in the "bluemap" on top. If I check the peptide list below, the list matches the bluemap but not the distinct peptide count value.
This is now really cumbersome since we have to count the peptides now manually since the count value is not reliable.

Do you have an idea why this count value is now suddenly wrong? Maybe some wrong properties of the project folder?

Best regards
Anette

Hi Anette,

Have you seen any cases when the count is lower, or does it always seem to be higher?

Are you using the option to specify a protein name that the peptides must match against?

Can you send me a screenshot of a page that is showing the problem? You can email it directly if you'd prefer.

Thanks,
Josh
