Mass Spectrometry Technology for Protein Biomarker Discovery

Journal Title: Imaging Journal of Clinical and Medical Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 1

Abstract

Human tissues and organs could be affected depending on pathological condition of diseases. Proteins are basic functioning molecules of cells accordingly to modification intensities. Protein modification can be different in cellular interaction, localization, activity, protein concentration, and co-/posttranslational. Protein biomarker discovery has covered some subtitles or points such as differentially expressed proteins disease specific protein isomers and abnormal protein activity [1,2].
