MS-Tag Instructions

A database searching tool from the that can be used to fit the fragment-ion tag data contained in a user's tandem mass spectrum to a peptide sequence in an existing database. All fragment-ions in the tag need not be of the same ion series, and amino-acid composition from immonium ions can be added. Homology mode enables matching to database sequences which contain a single mutation, cross-species substitution, or modified amino acid.
