CF Proteomics
The facility provides a complete platform for the identification and quantification of proteins using mass spectrometry. We are equipped with state-of-the-art chromatography systems and mass spectrometers that enable multiple MS and LC-MS/MS experiments:
- Orbitrap Fusion Lumos Tribrid mass spectrometer (high resolution ESI mass spectrometer) coupled to nanoAcquity UPLC
- LTQ Orbitrap XL ETD (high resolution ESI mass spectrometer) coupled to 2D nanoHPLC
- LTQ (low resolution ESI mass spectrometer) coupled to GE MDLC
- UltraflexII tof/tof (MALDI mass spectrometer)
- Procise 494 (Edman sequencer)
- 1260 Infinity (HPLC)
- Easy nanoLC coupled to fraction collector/MALDI spotter (nanoscale preparations)
- Sample preparation robot (in-gel digestion of large sample sets)
In addition, the facility provides a wide-range of software and bioinformatics tools for data analysis and interpretation:
- Mascot Server
- Proteome Discoverer
- MaxQuant
- Scaffold
- Multiple in house written procedures based on R\Bioconductor
- Identification and quantification of proteins using mass spectrometry
- Preparation of peptides from different sample types (cells, tissues, etc…)
- Peptide labeling for protein quantification (dimethyl labeling, TMT)
- Off-line peptide fraction by high-pH reverse phase
- De-novo sequencing of proteins
