Analysis of Protein Complexes by Mass Spectrometry John Yates The Scripps Research Institute LaJolla, CA
Protein Complex Discovery • Who: identity of proteins in complex? • What: biological process involved? • Where: is the complex localized? • When: are proteins involved in the complex? • How much: stoichiometry of proteins in complex, quantity- relative vs absolute • Regulation: modifications (kinase,etc) proteolysis (protease)
