Research abstract
DESCRIPTION: (Applicant's description) Development and testing of a protein
differential display assay system, for proteomes of higher eukaryotes, using
isotope-coded affinity tags (ICAT) and microcapillary liquid chromatography
tandem mass spectrometry (uLC-MS/MS), is proposed. This system includes
specific immunoaffinity capture of proteins during CAT analysis. Initial Phase
I studies are proposed for development and optimization of phosphotyrosine
specific protein differential display assay using a well characterized
phosphotyrosine specific antibody and human carcinoma cells in culture. In
Phase II, assays for other cell types and tissues will be developed. In
addition, subtraction of high abundant and enrichment of low abundant proteins,
in crude protein extracts, will be incorporated. Phase II studies also include
use of novel CATs for comprehensive analysis of post-translational
modifications.ln full development, this assay system provides for comprehensive
analysis of the complex proteomes such as that of human.
