IDExtractor

Extracts 'n' peptides randomly or best 'n' from idXML files.

Input and output format are 'idXML'. The tools allows you to extract subsets of peptides from idXML files.

Note

Currently mzIdentML (mzid) is not directly supported as an input/output format of this tool. Convert mzid files to/from idXML using IDFileConverter if necessary.
