[BiO BB] peptide identification tools question

[Mike Marchywka]

Hi,
I was looking into various issues surrounding 5HT. There seems to be  a lot 
confusion on
its role in depression and valvular heart disease among other things. I did 
a blast search on
SERT and then tried to make a frequency table of peptide hits using a simple 
text processing
script. While line breaks and other artifacts are surely messing up the 
details, I did find a couple
of interesting peptides I wanted to investigate. Just out of curiousity, 
what tools would I use
to investigate the longer more frequent peptides? I ran a blast search on 
LGNVWRFPY  and
tried to use the conserved domain search but the blast search didn't return 
anything surprising
and I didn't find anything related in conserved domain results but I wasn't 
sure I knew
how to use the output. Are these peptides well known or just likely 
artifacts and how
would I tell?  Thanks.
