  2. 1. Global Proteome Survey -Transforming antibody-based affinity proteomics into a global discovery platform

    Author : Niclas Olsson; Institutionen för immunteknologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; affinity proteomics; recombinant antibodies; Proteomics; mass spectrometry; proteome profiling; breast cancer; antibody specificity;

    Abstract : Proteomics is expected to generate new insights into biological processes as well as identify novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets since most biological functions are transmitted through proteins. However, due to the complexity displayed by a proteome and inherent limitations associated with current methodologies, proteomic analyses often result in incomplete coverage and inconsistent measurements.

  4. 2. Validation of antibodies for protein profiling : A study using immunohistochemistry on tissue microarrays

    Author : Linda Paavilainen; Fredrik Pontén; Ola Nilsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; antibody validation; monospecific antibodies; protein profiling; immunohistochemistry; tissue microarrays; western blot; fixatives; Pathology; Patologi; Pathology; patologi;

    Abstract : The field of proteomics has rapidly expanded due to the completion of the human genome sequence. This thesis validates affinity-purified monospecific antibodies of polyclonal origin, for protein profiling in a broad spectrum of normal tissues and cells. READ MORE

  5. 3. Transcriptome and Proteome Analysis using Signature Tags

    Author : Charlotta Agaton; KTH; []
    Keywords : functional genomics; 3´-end signature tags; pyrosequencing; amplification; PrEST; chromosome 21; polyclonal antibodies; dual expression; affinity purification;

    Abstract : With the full sequence of the human genome now available, anexciting era in biomedical research has started. The sequenceprovides information about all our genes and greatly increasesthe scope to compare genetic activities in different cells, toanalyze genetic variation between individuals and betweendifferent species and, most importantly, to investigatesystematically the whole genome in a gene-by-gene manner, andthus increase our understanding of gene function.

  6. 4. Antibody-based subcellular localization of the human proteome

    Author : Marie Skogs; Emma Lundberg; Hans Blom; Cecilia Williams; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Human proteome; Subcellular localization; Organelles; Immunofluorescence; Fixation; Permeabilization; Antibody validation; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the use of antibodies and immunofluorescence for subcellular localization of proteins. The key objective is the creation of an open-source atlas with information on the subcellular location of every human protein. READ MORE

  7. 5. Selection of antigens for antibody-based proteomics

    Author : Lisa Berglund; Mathias Uhlén; Sören Brunak; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; epitope; antigen; antibody; affinity; protein; proteome; proteomics; bioinformatics; prediction; primer design; sequence similarity; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

    Abstract : The human genome is predicted to contain ~20,500 protein-coding genes. The encoded proteins are the key players in the body, but the functions and localizations of most proteins are still unknown. READ MORE
