Proteome profiling is a type of quantitative analysis that reveals level of protein expression in the sample. Proteome profiling by using selected reaction monitoring is an approach for the Chromosome-centric Human Proteome Project (C-HPP). Here we describe dataset generated in the course of the pilot phase of Russian part of C-HPP, which was focused on human Chr 18 proteins. Proteome profiling...

Herein we describe three applications of label-free kinase profiling using a novel type of phosphate affinity polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The phosphate affinity site is a polyacrylamide-bound dinuclear Mn2+ complex that enables the mobility shift detection of phosphorylated proteins from their nonphosphorylated counterpart. The first application is in vitro kinase activity profiling for...

p53 triggers cell cycle arrest and apoptosis through transcriptional regulation of specific target genes. We have investigated the effect of p53 activation on the proteome using 2D gel electrophoresis analysis of mitomycin C-treated HCT116 colon carcinoma cells carrying wild-type p53. Approximately 5,800 protein spots were separated in overlapping narrow-pH-range gel strips, and 115 protein spo...

The success of microarrays for analyzing nucleic acid and, more recently, protein-protein interactions illustrates the advantages of bioassay miniaturization. However, the current level of miniaturization of useful bioanalytical tools still creates limits in terms of breadth of application. For example, analyses of picoliter sample volumes containing protein analytes that cannot be amplified or...

Prion diseases or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) are fatal neurodegenerative pathologies characterized by the formation in the central nervous system of the amyloid protein PrPSc, which derives from a cellular precursor called PrPc. Epidemiological and laboratory studies have shown that in species where the PrPc gene is polymorphic, the genotype composition is an important fac...
