Course Theory
The course is divided in two main modules, Module I - Theory and Module II - lab work
Module I - Theory
- Fundamentals of proteomics
- Protein fractionation: 1D-GE, 2D-GE, off-gel IEF
- Sample preparation - In-gel trypsin digestion and 18o-isotopic labelling
- Protein identification by Mass Spectrometry
- Protein quantification by Mass Spectrometry
- Experimental Design
- Practical aspects of sample collection storage and preservation for the proteome analysis
- Principles of LC-MALDI
- μHPLC Reverse phase peptide separation
- Automated spotting
Module II - Hands-on
- Pre-analytical considerations
- Experimental design
- Sample collection storage and preservation
- Sample clean-up
- Protein quantification
- Protein separation - 2D gel electrophoresis
- IPG-IEF
- SDS-PAGE
- In-gel trypsin digestion - accelerated method
- 18O-stable isotope labelling
- Principles of LC-MALDI
- μHPLC Reverse phase peptide separation
- Automated spotting
- MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS data acquisition
- Data analysis
- Protein identification
- Protein quantification
Attention: The course will be given in English and Spanish on language demand, thus, both will be used without any given restriction in this course .
