37 results about "2 Dimensional Gel Electrophoresis" patented technology

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, abbreviated as 2-DE or 2-D electrophoresis, is a form of gel electrophoresis commonly used to analyze proteins. Mixtures of proteins are separated by two properties in two dimensions on 2D gels. 2-DE was first independently introduced by O'Farrell and Klose in 1975.

Protein mixture analysis by mass spectrometry

The invention relates to the analysis of complex protein mixtures such as entire proteomes, and in particular the rapid detection of previously unknown or unusually expressed proteins by common enzymatic digestion, subsequent chromatographic separation and analysis of the digestion peptides by mass spectrometry. The invention consists in subjecting fractions of the digestion peptides separated by liquid chromatography to analysis by mass spectrometry, at a time other than that of the chromatography, in a tandem time-of-flight mass spectrometer with ionization by matrix assisted laser desorption (MALDI). This method finds many times more proteins than are found through the procedures predominantly used until now of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis with subsequent time-of-flight mass spectrometry. It also removes the time pressure that dominates the real-time analysis of coupled LC-MS processes, and it allows measurements to be reduced to the interesting proteins by intermediate analysis.

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis apparatus and method

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis apparatus includes an electrophoresis zone having four edges defined by a plurality of electrodes. A pair of opposed edges are defined by groups of discrete electrodes. Discrete electrodes within each group are electrically isolated from each other while the other pair of opposed edges are used to generate an electrical field. As a result, the electrical field is less distorted than would be the case if each edge was defined by a single elongate electrode. The apparatus can be provided as a cassette with electrodes configured to guide gas generated during electrolysis out of the cassette through apertures, to reduce the build up of combustible gases.

Method and means for 2d-gel-image segmentation

The present invention relates to the segmentation of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis images (2D images). The method according to the invention associates an initial protein seed candidate with an interface circumscribing said seed and thereafter brings said interface to evolve in accordance with a defined speed function F(x, y). The evolution of the interface is halted by a stopping criterion, C. According to the invention, the speed function can depend on a wide variety of parameters such as the pixel intensity, the curvature of the pixel intensity, the distance to the initial seed, the curvature and / or shape and / or normal direction and / or position of the evolving interface. The stopping criterion depends e.g. on the speed function F and / or the time of arrival T(x, y) and / or the departure time Td for said interface. The invention provides criteria for a specific treatment of saturated spots and to mike sure that interfaces never overlap.

Protein markers for the diagnosis and prognosis of ovarian and breast cancer

Plasma samples of ovarian and breast cancer patients were used to search for markers of cancer, using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and MALDI TOF mass spectrometry. Truncated forms of cytosolic serine hydroxymethyl transferase (cSHMT), T-box transcription factor 3 (Tbx3) and utrophin were aberrantly expressed in samples from cancer patients, as compared to samples from noncancer cases. Aberrant expression of proteins was validated by immunoblotting of plasma samples with specific antibodies to cSHMT, Tbx3 and utrophin. A cohort of 79 breast and 39 ovarian cancer patients, and 31 individuals who were either healthy or had noncancerous conditions was studied. We observed increased expression of truncated cSHMT, Tbx3 and utrophin in plasma samples obtained from patients at early stages of disease. The results indicate that cSHMT, Tbx3, utrophin and truncated forms thereof can be used as components of multiparameter monitoring of ovarian and breast cancer.

Biochemical marker for diagnosing a leukodystrophy

A biochemical marker for the diagnosis of a central nervous system leukodystrophic genetic disorder, e.g., Childhood Onset Ataxia and Central Nervous System Hypomyelination (CACH) / Vanishing White Matter Disease (VWM) has been discovered herein. Such a marker has been found in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of such patients. A two dimensional gel electrophoresis / mass spectrometry or image analysis of stained transferrin isoforms approach revealed that patients with CACH / VWM have a pronounced deficiency of the basic asialo form of the transferrin compared to the amounts of asialotransferrin normally present in CSF from healthy controls or other CNS disorders. The acidic sialotransferrin isoform is not reduced in these disorders. The transferrin isoform abnormality described in the CSF of patients with CACH / VWM is unique and may be used as a clinical diagnostic biomarker. The rapid (48 hr) and efficient diagnosis of this disorder described herein will have great clinical utility.
