Hi,
Simply, for LCMSMS protein identification, it is better to use curated, and
verified protein sequence database (from experiments, assays and
publications).
Uniprot KnowledgeBase is known to be the most curated one (even manually)
It will be possible to convert ans improve uniprotKB (Hs) to
org.Hs.uniprot.db if not yet done.
