• • Principle of Protein Sequencing by Mass Spectrometry

  Protein mass spectrometry (MS) is a pivotal technique in contemporary biological research, extensively applied in fields such as proteomics, metabolomics, and drug development. This method analyzes the mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) of proteins and their fragments to deduce their amino acid sequences and structural information.

• • Application of Peptide Sequencing by Mass Spectrometry

  Mass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical tool widely utilized in proteomics research. Through MS sequencing, scientists can precisely determine the peptide sequences of proteins, uncovering their structure and function. This technology plays a significant role in biological research and clinical diagnostics, especially in protein identification, studying protein-protein interactions, biomarker discovery, and drug development.

• • Protein Phosphorylation Site Detection

  Protein phosphorylation is a core event in cell signal transduction, playing a crucial role in many biological processes, such as cell cycle, proliferation, differentiation, and metabolism. To deeply understand these processes, it is key to determine which proteins are phosphorylated and the precise phosphorylation sites. In recent years, the scientific community has developed a variety of techniques to address this challenge.

• • Common Post-Translational Modifications of Proteins

  Post-translational modification (PTM) refers to the biochemical processes in which amino acid residues in proteins are chemically modified after translation. These chemical modifications greatly expand the functional diversity of proteins, allowing them to participate in various cellular physiological processes.

• • Extinction Coefficient Measurement Method

  The molar extinction coefficient is a unit of measurement that assesses the absorption intensity of a specific wavelength of light by a chemical substance. The molar extinction coefficient of proteins at 280nm is mostly determined by the number of aromatic residues, particularly tryptophan, and can be predicted based on the amino acid sequence. If the molar extinction coefficient is known, it can be used to determine the concentration of protein in a solution.

• • Amino Acid Sequence Determination Methods

  Amino acid sequence determination, also known as protein sequence determination, refers to the process of determining the exact order of amino acid residues in a protein. This information is vital for understanding the structure and function of proteins, identifying new proteins, studying protein interactions, and disease associations.
