The proteomics facility of the Network Biology Collaborative Centre (NBCC) provides mass-spectrometry based identification and quantification of proteins and is open to all users. Directed by Dr. Anne-Claude Gingras, the facility specializes in functional proteomics with a focus on protein proximity and protein interaction mapping.
Our full-service offerings include access to reagents (plasmids), sample preparation, mass spectrometry, and data analysis.
Applications include:
proximity-dependent biotinylation mapping to identify neighboring proteins in cells
protein-protein interaction mapping
differential protein abundance
post-translational modification identification (with a focus on phosphorylation)
chemical proteomics (identifying on- and off-target binding to small molecules or biologics)
