Practical Proteomics

 
  September 23, 2004  
     
 


University of York, York, UK
17-22 April 2005


An intensive, hands-on, five-day training course in the theory and practice of modern proteomics techniques. The course will cover sample preparation, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, in-gel tryptic digestion, mass spectrometry, and database searching. Participants are encouraged to bring their own samples for analysis.

Hands-on laboratory activities will include:

* 2D gel electrophoresis
* Gel analysis using the latest software, including Nonlinear Dynamics Phoretix 2D
* In-gel digestion and MALDI sample preparation
* MALDI-MS and MS/MS using an Applied Biosystems 4700 Proteomics Analyzer
* ES-LC-MS/MS using an Applied Biosystems QSTAR®
* Submission of mass spectral data to Mascot database searching
* Interpretation of database search results

Classroom sessions will cover the following topics:

* Experimental design for proteomics studies
* Protein and peptide sample-handling for proteomics
* 2D Gel electrophoresis
* Mass spectrometry in proteomics
* Interpretation of CID tandem mass spectra of peptides
* Database searching with MS and MS/MS spectral data
* Analysis of post-translational modifications
* Troubleshooting proteomics experiments
