• • How to Interpret Peptide Graphics?

  Peptide mapping is a representation of protein sequences and is widely used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of peptides and proteins. Through peptide mapping, we can clearly see the amino acid composition in the protein sequence and the relative positions of each amino acid. However, interpreting peptide maps may be challenging for non-specialists.

• • Mass Spectrometry Cannot Identify the Target Protein

  In biological research, mass spectrometry is an important way to identify and analyze proteins. However, researchers may encounter situations where the target protein cannot be identified by mass spectrometry. This article will discuss the possible reasons and targeted solutions.  

• • Mass Spectrometry-Based Glycan Profiling Analysis

  Glycotype is a type of biological marker that plays a vital role in many biological processes, such as cell adhesion, immune recognition, and virus invasion. However, the structure of glycotype is extremely complex, so its accurate structural analysis and identification are of great significance for biomedical research.
