Actions:


M00126

Could not find description / accession number in [line from fasta database] using rule: [rule in mascot.dat]

Further help:

Actions:


M00130

Warning - accession [[accession]] is too long. Maximal allowed accession length if [number] characters

Further help:

Possibly, you have a malformed fasta file or wrong accession parse rules. Be careful when selecting a parse rule or creating a new one for your fasta database. If you are configuring your custom in-house database try to avoid too long identifiers for the sequences as mascot search engine cannot process them.

Actions:


M00131

In mascot.dat, the database [name] has no [accession / description] rule

Further help:

In the databases section of mascot.dat, a rule number is specified for extracting the description and accession number. There must be a corresponding rule in the PARSE section of mascot.dat, but in this case, that rule is missing

Actions:

M00133

Peptide mass of [entered mass] is too small. The minimum mass allowed is [mass in daltons] . (Or incorrect data format)

Further help:

Only enter masses larger than minimum allowed mass. It is also possible that the data format is wrong - for example you could be entering ms-ms data as PMF, and the ions would then be interpreted as peptides. If the data is in .dta or .pkl format, then there may be unintentional extra blank lines causing each ions value to be recognised as a peptide mass.

Actions:


M00134

Peptide mass of [entered mass] is too big. The maximum mass allowed is [mass in daltons] . (Or incorrect data format)

Further help:

Only enter masses smaller than maximum allowed mass. It is also possible that the data format is wrong - for example you could be entering ms-ms data as PMF, and the ions would then be interpreted as peptides. If the data is in .dta or .pkl format, then there may be unintentional extra blank lines causing each ions value to be recognised as a peptide mass.

M00138

Too many variable modifications specified. Limit is [number]

Further help:

For a peptide mass fingerprint, it is rarely sensible to have more than 2 or 3 variable modifications. For MS/MS searches, a very large number of variable modifications can make search times very long. Reduce the number of variable modifications specified

M00239

[number] sequences with more than [number] residues ignored. Longest approx. pnumber]

Further help:

The default maximum length for sequences is 50000, and this means that Mascot will not search against longer sequences. However, this maximum can be changed by adding/changing the MaxSequenceLen xxxxx line in the Options section of mascot.dat. The value needs to be one greater than the value reported in the message. When you have done that, you will need to re-build the compressed files for that database. The easiest way is to stop the mascot service, delete one or more of the compressed files (e.g. db_name.i00), and then re-start the service.

Warning: [accession] in database [fasta file name] has a taxonomy id ([taxonomy id]) with a missing link up to 'all species'. Check error M00385 below

Further help:

The file nodes.dmp in the taxonomy directory contains a link to the 'parent' of each species. For example, All Species->Eukaryota->Metazoa-> ...Mammalia->...Homo Sapiens When Mascot creates the compressed files, it checks the taxonomy tree for all sequences. All taxonomy IDs should link to the top of the tree. This one failed, because one of the taxonomy IDs in nodes.dmp is missing. It is fairly common for about 100 entries in the database to have missing taxonomy IDs. If there are more than this, then check that nodes.dmp is up to date. Only five of these errors will be displayed for any fasta file. Error message 385, and also the .stats file will show the total number of sequences with a fault

For example, All Species->Eukaryota->Metazoa-> ...Mammalia->...Homo Sapiens When Mascot creates the compressed files, it checks the taxonomy tree for all sequences. All taxonomy IDs should link to the top of the tree. Multiple entries failed, because one of the taxonomy IDs in nodes.dmp are missing. It is fairly common for about 1 percent of entries in the database to have missing taxonomy IDs. If there are more than this, then check that nodes.dmp is up to date. Only five of these errors will be displayed for any fasta file.

Warning - accession [[accession]] is longer than [number] characters

Further help:

This may not be a problem. However, it might indicate sometime a malformed fasta file or wrong accession parse rules. Be careful when selecting a parse rule or creating a new one for your fasta database. If you are configuring your custom in-house database try to avoid very long identifiers for the sequences as they might increase size of comnpressed files and search result files significantly.

Actions:


M00422

Accession [[accession]] is a duplicate - there is at least one other protein with this accession number

Further help:

If two or more proteins have the same accession string, then Mascot results would be ambiguous. For example, if you were to try view a protein report this protein, Mascot would not know which one to display. This is a fatal error - if you wish to ignore this error, add the database name to the IgnoreDupeAccessions value in the options section of mascot.dat
