FLAC-Fluorous Labeling Assisted Capture

The enrichment of peptide subsets is an important part of proteomics in order to simplify sample complexity or to target specific posttranslational modifications for study.  A number of ways for enrichment are known mostly based on affinity chromatography with biotin-avidin … Continue reading

Glycoproteomics

In February, the Journal of Proteome Research published a special issue dedicated to glycoproteomics.  Glycosylation is one of the many posttranslational modifications (PTMs) that proteins can undergo after biosynthesis.  Others include ubiquitination, phosphorylation, acylation, deacetylation, glutamylation, etc.  Given all the … Continue reading
