Hi group,
I've converted several (well formatted) MGF files to spectrarecords using
the latest (modified) version of msconvert that's shipped with Tide
(1.0-x86_64-binaries). In the Tide output (sqt and text) all spectra
numbers are reported as "0". Here's an excerpt of the Tide text output:
0 1970.90 3
0.209824 LFSLVIWICLVAMGYLFMCFGGTVSPWDQVSFFLFIIFVVYTMLPFNMR
sp|Q08462|ADCY2_HUMAN 107 R D
0 1971.60 3
0.287774 LNVWVIVMIDLCTHTLGTHNTMLSVESDQFALFSLSEQTLAVHCHLCMYC
tr|DECOY_E7ERY2|E7ERY2_HUMAN 561 R -
Personally, I would expect to find the spectrum's index within the MGF file
as it's normally present when using Crux on MS2 files (when I converted the
MGF files to MS2 and then used Crux to search them the output was as
expected).
Thanks for any help,
Johannes
