Proteomics research

Confidence from discovery to translational research and beyond

Overview

In pursuit of nanoscopic discoveries for big world impact

The inherent complexity of proteomes, with their variability and dynamic range, have dictated the need to maximize discovery and quantification capabilities without compromising one over the other.
In life science research, “shotgun” or bottom-up proteomics (tandem LC-MS/MS) is a key method used to comprehensively analyze proteins and their changes - including post-translational modifications (PTMs) - to give a global interpretation of biological systems. In general, there are two main approaches to generate tandem mass spectra, both which are supported by SCIEX solutions including: data dependent acquisition (DDA), also known as information dependent acquisition (IDA), and SWATH data independent acquisition (DIA).

Data/information dependent acquisition (DDA/IDA)

The speed and sensitivity of the ZenoTOF 7600 system, which uses using the Zeno trap at scan speeds in excess of >133 Hz, delivers the highest-quality MS/MS data during data-dependent acquisition (DDA), even on low-abundance proteins.

SWATH data independent acquisition (DIA)

SWATH DIA delivers precise, extensive, label-free quantification that drives biomarker discovery and identification of differentially expressed proteins. The ability to generate MS/MS data on all observable species at speed enables this approach to simultaneously identify and quantify thousands of proteins, even during short run times and with small sample loads.

Discovery proteomics

Confident identification and quantification

Move research from discovery to translational, and beyond, with more confident and significant biomarker signatures to uncover insights in their biology and mechanism of action. Using the latest technologies from SCIEX, a whole new level of proteomic depth can be discovered by uncovering unique fragmentation patterns and low abundant species.

Next-generation proteomics

Protein profiling and characterization

From post-translational modifications (PTMs) to full proteome profiling and characterization, the dynamic nature of proteins make them very challenging to analyze. Researchers require advanced technology to study protein dynamics reliably and reproducibly to determine profile protein structure changes, including PTMs profiling. SCIEX solutions allow researchers to reliably and reproducibly profile protein structure changes using the latest innovations in fragmentation technology to yield rich and informative MS/MS. Benefit from 100% sequence coverage in a single injection with and identify low-level PTMs faster than ever before.

Targeted proteomics

Monitor and quantify proteins of interest with absolute precision

Verification and validation of protein biomarkers require precise, targeted quantification across large numbers of samples to enable translation into clinical research. SCIEX solutions for targeted proteomics are driven by renown MS/MS sensitivity and precision further enhanced by Zeno trap and Zeno SWATH DIA technology.
