Facility Details

The Protein Chemistry Laboratory performs a wide array of protein analyses including protein/peptide separations and characterization and proteomics analysis. Our major techniques are Amino Acid Analysis, Automated Edman Protein Sequencing, Electrophoresis and Chromatography-based protein/peptide separations and mass spectrometry. In addition, we have expertise and instrumentation for 2D Differential Gel Electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) analysis for high throughput protein expression profiling. We possess Shimadzu/Kratos Axima CFR MALDI-TOF and a Thermo Finnigan LCQ DecaXP Ion Trap mass spectrometers for protein/peptide mass measurement and protein ID from 1D and 2D gels. Our services are available to the entire Texas A&M System as well as outside academic and commercial clients.
