Dear MS Amanda developer,
I am writing this letter for some help about the usage of MS Amanda.
I tried to use MS Amanda integrated in searchGUI 3.3.13 with my TMT 10-plex labeled data of 10 different mixed samples for identification of phosphorylation peptides and sites.
I gave an input file in "mgf" format, then set 'TMT 10-plex of K' and 'TMT 10-plex of peptide N-term' as well as 'Phosphorylation of S', 'Phosphorylation of T' and 'Phosphorylation of Y' as variable modifications, then I got the searching result in 'csv' format. but I don't know these phosphorylation sites come from which sample of 10 via the information provided by output file XXX.csv, because there is only information about monoisotopic mass of 229.162932, which is TMT-10plex modification mass, but no each reporter mass of TMT126, TMT127N, TMT127C, TMT128C, TMT128N, TMT129C, TMT129N, TMT130C, TMT130C and TMT131:
So how can I know in which sample of 10 this phosphorylation site was identificated? Would you like to give me some information on how to do this? Is quantification of peptides and proteins necessary?
Looking forward to your reply. Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Carrie Chou
