      2.4. Application Of 2DGE In Proteomics
      four major advantages of 2DGE are robustness, reproducibility, visualization, and compatibility with downstream microanalysis
      four major limitations of 2DGE are resolution, sensitivity, representation, and compatibility with automated protein analysis
      resolution of 2DGE can be improved with giant gels, zoom gels, and modified gradients, or by pre-fractionating the sample
      sensitivity of 2DGE depends on the visualization of minor protein spots, which can be masked by abundant proteins
      representation of hydrophobic proteins is an intractable problem reflecting the buffers required for isoelectric focusing
      Downstream mass spectrometry requires spot analysis and picking
      2.5. Principles Of Multidimensional Liquid Chromatography
      Protein and peptide separation by chromatography relies on differing affinity for stationary and mobile phases
      Affinity chromatography exploits the specific binding characteristics of proteins and/or peptides
      Size exclusion chromatography sieves molecules on the basis of their size
      Ion exchange chromatography exploits differences in net charge
      Reversed-phase chromatography and hydrophobic interaction chromatography exploit the affinity between peptides and hydrophobic resins
      2.6. Multidimensional Liquid Chromatography Strategies In Proteomics
      Multidimensional liquid chromatography is more versatile and more easily automated than 2DGE but lacks a visual dimension
      most useful MDLC systems achieve optimal peak capacity by exploiting orthogonal separations that have internally compatible buffers
      MudPIT shows how MDLC has evolved from a laborious technique to virtually hands-free operation
      RP-RPLC and HILIC-RP systems offer advantages for the separation of certain types of peptide mixtures
      Affinity chromatography is combined with MDLC to achieve the simplification of peptide mixtures

      Edman degradation was the first protein identification method to be applied in proteomics, but it is difficult to apply on a large scale
      3.4. Mass Spectrometry-Basic Principles And Instrumentation
      Mass spectrometry is based on the separation of molecules according to their mass/charge ratio
      integration of mass spectrometry into proteomics required the development of soft ionization methods to prevent random fragmentation
      Controlled fragmentation is used to break peptide bonds and generate fragment ions
      Five principal types of mass analyzer are commonly used in proteomics
      3.5. Protein Identification Using Data From Mass Spectra

      Parallel analysis with multiple dyes can also be used to identify particular structural or functional groups of proteins
      4.4. Quantitative Mass Spectrometry
      Label-free quantitation may be based on spectral counting or the comparison of signal intensities across samples in a narrow m/z range
      Label-based quantitation involves the incorporation of labels that allow corresponding peptides in different samples to be identified by a specific change in mass
      ICAT reagents are used for the selective labeling of proteins or peptides
      Proteins and peptides can also be labeled nonselectively
      Isobaric tagging allows protein quantitation by the detection of reporter ions
      Metabolic labeling introduces the label before sample preparation but is limited to simple organisms and cultured cells
