Learning outcomes

Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteins. It is an emerging scientific research which can be applied to food (to find allergen for example) and plants research (for example to study plant pathogen response).

Program

PROTEOMICS

Analytical proteomics (LM9+LM7):

1. Introduction.

2. Sample preparation.

3. Gel-based separation.

4. 2D gel Image analysis.

5. Gel-free separation.

6. Pre-fractionation of low abundance proteins.

7. Analysis of proteins/peptides by Mass Spectrometry.

8. Analysis of proteins/peptides by Tandem Mass Spectrometry.

9. Analysis of mass spectra and database search for protein identification.

10. Differential and Quantitative proteomics.

11. Characterization of post-translational modifications.

12. Proteomics in agro-food and biomedical areas.
