The described protocol provides an optimized quantitative proteomics analysis of tissue samples using two approaches: label-based and label free quantitation. Label-based approaches have the advantage of more accurate quantitation of proteins, while a label-free approach is more cost-effective and used to analyze hundreds of samples of a cohort.
The protocol aims to introduce the use of a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer for Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM) of proteins from clinical samples. We have provided a systematic workflow starting from sample preparation to data analysis for clinical samples with all the necessary precautions to be taken.
In this work, a robust method for the quantification of mating efficiency in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is described. This method is particularly useful for the quantification of pre-zygotic barriers in speciation studies.
Here, we describe a proteomics workflow for characterization of the cell surface proteome of various cell types. This workflow includes cell surface protein enrichment, subsequent sample preparation, analysis using an LC-MS/MS platform, and data processing with specialized software.
