High throughput Protein Measurement Techniques Harin Kanani
Proteins: • Biological Macromolecules • Functional Protein - Enzymes • Structural Protein • Antibody for Cell defense • Signalling Proteins
Motivation for Protein measurement: • Basic biological research • Biomarkers : Molecular Classification & Diagnosis of disease • Drug Discovery • For profiling response of biological systems to toxins and pharmaceuticals
Motivation High throughput Measurement: ::Genomic Revolution:: • Rapid (?) measurement of a large number of samples • non-hypothesis approach of research • Final Aim is - “Simultaneous, Complete, quantitative analysis of all Gene Expressions/ Proteins”
High throughput Measurement: Proteomics Genomics • Proteinchip • Protein Array Metabolomics • Genechip • DNA Microarray • GC-LC / MS • NMR
High throughput Measurement: Proteins Proteomics Genomics • Proteinchip • Protein Array Metabolomics • Genechip • DNA Microarray • GC-LC / MS • NMR
ProteinchipTM Protein Capture Chips for Mass Spectrometry Using SELDI – Surface Enhanced Laser Disorption Ionization Or MALDI – Matrix Assisted Laser Disorption Ionization
ProteinchipTM : Procedure Application of Crude Sample: Step:1
ProteinchipTM : Procedure Wash chip to remove non-specifically binded protein/background: Step: 2
Protein Capture-chips – MS: Procedure Add Energy Absorbing Molecules (EAS) or “Matrix”: Step: 3 This step loosens the protein binding
Protein Capture-chips – MS: Procedure Use Laser for desorption and ionization of protein : Step: 4 TOF (Time of Flight Mass Spectrometer): Measure Molecular weight – Get Spectrum
Protein Capture-chips – MS: Results Generating m/z vs Intensity Plots Step: 5

Commercial Protein Measurement Technique: Many Techniques being explored… but very few Commercial products in the market Inspite of high demand Because……
Protein Measurement: Bottlenecks.. • Capture agents: shortage of sufficiently specific antibodies or their ligands • Problem due to different forms of the post translational protein • Protein deactivation on micro array surfaces
Protein Measurement: Bottlenecks.. • High throughput purification techniques which do not affect functional form of proteins • lack of uniform labelling due to different protein properties ..(upto 10 fold difference) • Varying protein concentration (~10^14) ..different concentration requires different conditions
High throughput Protein Measurement Beginning of a long journey ahead….
