Support for Top - down Proteomics

چکیده
Top-down proteomics is a revolutionary application for the identification and characterization of protein, known to be one of the most complicated and challenging issues in biology. In top-down proteomics, the quality and speed of the data warehouse is very important, as high accuracy results are returned by a database search. ProSight Warehouse fills the critical role as the data warehouse for ProSight PTM, the first publicly available top-down proteomics software suite. MySQL, a free relational database, was the base of this warehouse. Many annotated and predicted protein forms have been successfully incorporated into the organism-specific database and in the integrated database for human strains. To achieve high quality and efficiency, a database schema (Absolute Mass Search), data annotation methods (Shotgun and Extended Shotgun Annotation), data population strategies (on-the-fly population, bulk-loading method), and a database integration methodology for human protein were developed. With the successful implementation of ProSight Warehouse, ProSight PTM achieved its aspiration, highly accurate protein identification and characterization. iii Acknowledgements

Top-Down Proteomics and Farm Animal and Aquatic Sciences
Proteomics is a field of growing importance in animal and aquatic sciences. Similar to other proteomic approaches, top-down proteomics is slowly making its way within the vast array of proteomic approaches that researchers have access to. This opinion and mini-review article is dedicated to top-down proteomics and how its use can be of importance to animal and aquatic sciences. Herein, we inclu...
متن کاملIntegrated Bottom-Up and Top-Down Proteomics of Patient-Derived Breast Tumor Xenografts.
Bottom-up proteomics relies on the use of proteases and is the method of choice for identifying thousands of protein groups in complex samples. Top-down proteomics has been shown to be robust for direct analysis of small proteins and offers a solution to the "peptide-to-protein" inference problem inherent with bottom-up approaches. Here, we describe the first large-scale integration of genomic,...
متن کاملThe Effect of Bottom-up/Top- down Techniques on Lower vs. Upper -Intermediate EFL Learners’ Listening Comprehension
Listening is regarded as an interactive process involving decoding of information. This study was launched to find out the impact of bottom-up (BU) and top-down (TD) techniques on Iranian lower and upper intermediate learners’ listening comprehension. We selected a total of 120 participants in six intact classes, three lower intermediate and three upper intermediate. The proficiency level of th...
متن کاملEffective Protein Separation by Coupling Hydrophobic Interaction and Reverse Phase Chromatography for Top-down Proteomics
One of the challenges in proteomics is the proteome's complexity, which necessitates the fractionation of proteins prior to the mass spectrometry (MS) analysis. Despite recent advances in top-down proteomics, separation of intact proteins remains challenging. Hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) appears to be a promising method that provides high-resolution separation of intact proteins...
متن کاملTop-down protein sequencing and MS3 on a hybrid linear quadrupole ion trap-orbitrap mass spectrometer.
Top-down proteomics, the analysis of intact proteins (instead of first digesting them to peptides), has the potential to become a powerful tool for mass spectrometric protein characterization. Requirements for extremely high mass resolution, accuracy, and ability to efficiently fragment large ions have often limited top-down analyses to custom built FT-ICR mass analyzers. Here we explore the hy...
