Proteome Factory offers protein identification by most modern mass spectrometric techniques. To ensure highest sensitivity and reliablilty Proteome Factory uses mostly nanoLC-ESI-MSMS which allows unequivocal identification of one and more proteins within a sample. This is very suitable for analysis of protein bands from SDS-PAGE, protein complexes and other low or medium complex protein samples.
Protein identification results will be provided electronically in one report including protein name, amino acid sequence and molecular weight.
We provide
The protein identification service is applied to protein samples delivered as protein gel spot, protein gel band, lyophilzed, in solution or bound to blotting membrane. Proteins are either analyzed by MALDI-TOFTOF-MS or nanoLC-ESI-MSMS. The latter also identification of several protein within a sample due to peptide separation by nanoLC.
You receive
A result report of protein identification will be send by email or provided via SSL-server as a PDF file containing the results of protein database search.
How to order
Please, contact us and ship the sample together with our protein identification form signed by you. Below information are provided about sample requirements and shipping.
Recommendations for sample shipping
- Fill protein identification order form with information about the samples (e.g. sample name, sample type, MW, estimated protein amount, staining method) and the requested type of MS analysis, sign the form.
- Inform us by email or phone that your sample will be shipped.
- Transfer your protein spot or band in a 0.5 ml reaction tube without addition of any liquid.
- Seal your sample in a reaction tube by plastic wrap.
- Liquid samples should be shipped in a frozen state. Protein bands and protein spots can be shipped at room temperature.
- Ship the samples in a padded envelope or box together with the protein identification order form.
