Abstract
Mass Spectrometry: Reconnaissance at the Frontiers of Biology
Highlights
The 10th International Symposium on Mass Spectrometry in the Health and Life Sciences: Molecular and Cellular Proteomics was held in San Francisco in August 2011
The articles contained in this special issue of Molecular & Cellular Proteomics are a representative sampling of the presentations and illustrate both the technical advances and the practical applications of mass spectrometry to proteomic analyses in the past 2 years
Three articles describe improved developments with existing methodology, as it relates to quantification of both proteins and post-translational modifications: Deeb et al, 77– 89 [Mann] used super-SILAC for the classification of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma subtypes, Stokes et al, 187–201 [Silva] describe the identification and quantification of peptides from critical signaling proteins by immunoaffinity enrichment coupled with LC-MS/MS (PTMScan Direct), and Peach et al, 128 –137 [Jaffe] illustrate the use of chromatin immunoprecipitation-grade antibodies in the quantitative assessment of histone modifications
