This Sequence Data (DNA) has very few Methionin-starts. How is that possible?
If anyone stumbles across this question, I found out what the problem was in the end:
contrarily to my assumption that the DNA sequences where all in proper 5'3'-direction, it turned out that we found the exact ORF on the complementary strand in the other direction and who knows where else. Luckily, the MMETSP-Data also featured a /pep directory, in which the needed sequences where found in a clean version. 
Thanks for reading and good Luck.
