Getting the software
This software is included in the current TPP distribution.
In a nutshell
PeptideProphet is a tool for generating statistical validation of MS/MS search engines' spectra-to-peptide sequence assignments. This tool was orginally develped at the SPC, part of the ISB. PeptideProphet is now a core part of the Trans-Proteomic Pipeline software distrubtion.
