MASS SPEC SERVICES: PROTEIN-IDENTIFICATION

We reliably and sensitively identify proteins from low-complex (e.g. single gel spots, purified protein etc.) as well as complex samples by our laboratory standardized identification workflow. In this, proteins are first proteolitically digested to peptides (gel-based or gel-free) and then analysed by LC-MS/MS using our highly sensitive Orbitrap-MS systems. Afterwards, these peptides/proteins are identified by using suitable data analysis pipelines (MS/MS Ion Search) and high confidence results are provided to the clients.

QUANTITATIVE PROTEOMICS

WE OFFER SEVERAL QUANTIFICATION STRATEGIES:  

Unbiased proteomic studies can be performed using our high resolution Orbitrap mass spectrometers to provide accurate quantification data. We provide Label-free methods for both relative and absolute quantification, which are rapid and a low-cost alternative to other quantitative proteomic approaches.

Label-free:

approaches to quantitative proteomics have gained prominence in recent years since no additional chemistry or sample preparation steps are required

SILAC:

stable isotope labeling of amino acids in cell culture,a global method whereby all translated proteins have isotope labels metabolically incorporated at selected amino acid residues;

DIA analysis

Building DDA spectral libraries, DIA aquisitions & Data analysis

PRM and SRM analysis for absolute quantification

Orbitrap based PRM analysis and Triple Quad technology based SRM/MRM analysis
