Abstract = {{Database-searching programs generally identify only a fraction of the
   spectra acquired in a standard LC/MS/MS study of digested proteins.
   Subtle variations in database-searching algorithms for assigning
   peptides to MS/MS spectra have been known to provide different
   identification results. To leverage this variation, a probabilistic
   framework is developed for combining the results of multiple search
   engines. The scores for each search engine are first independently
   converted into peptide probabilities. These probabilities can then be
   readily combined across search engines using Bayesian rules and the
   expectation maximization learning algorithm. A significant gain in the
   number of peptides identified with high confidence with each additional
   search engine is demonstrated using several data sets of increasing
   complexity, from a control protein mixture to a human plasma sample,
   searched using SEQUEST, Mascot, and X! Tandem database-searching
   programs. The increased rate of peptide assignments also translates into
   a substantially larger number of protein identifications in LC/MS/MS
   studies compared to a typical analysis using a single database-search
   tool.}},
