Proteomic map and database of lymphoblastoid proteins

摘要

Advances in genomics have led to the accumulation of an unprecedented amount of data, giving rise to a new field in biochemistry, proteomics. We used a combination of two dimensional gel electrophoresis, analysis and annotation using third-generation software, and mass spectrometry to establish the proteome maps of lymphoblastoid B-cells, a prerequisite for analysis of drug effects and lymphocyte cell diseases. About 1200 protein spots were detected and characterised in terms of their isoelectric point, molecular mass and expression. The present status of proteomic technologies, as well as a description of the usefulness of human hematopoietic cells proteomic database are discussed.
