The last few years have seen an unprecedented drive toward the
application of proteomics to resolving challenging biomedical and
biochemical tasks. Separation techniques combined with modern mass
spectrometry are playing a central role in this drive. This book
discusses the increasingly important role of mass spectrometry in
proteomic research, and emphasizes recent advances in the existing
technology and describes the advantages and pitfalls as well.
* Provides a scientifically valid method for analyzing the
approximatey 500, 000 proteins that are encoded in the human
genome
* Explains the hows and whys of using mass spectrometry in
proteomic analysis
* Brings together the latest approaches combining separation
techniques and mass spectrometry and their application in proteome
analysis
* Comments on future challenges and how they may be addressed
* Includes sections on troubleshooting
