MDC Proteome m/z mass spectrometry • “genome“ refers to all genes in a given organism • the term “proteome“ was coined by Marc Wilkins 1994 to describe the protein complement of the genome • refers to all proteins present is a sample (organism, cell, body fluid etc.) • but how can we identify all proteins? • classical approach: two-dimensional gel electrophoresis MDC 2D-gel based proteomics m/z mass spectrometry Is this a complete proteome? MDC Gel based proteomics m/z mass spectrometry Coomassie and silver staining can only detect the most abundant proteins: not sensitive enough for complete proteome analysis!
