About 2000 protein spots of human Jurkat T-cells were detected by high resolution two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and were characterized in terms of their isoelectric point and molecular mass. A 2-DE database was constructed and is available at http://www.mpiib-berlin.mpg.de/2D-PAGE/. At present the database contains 67 identified protein spots. These proteins were identified after tryptic digestion by peptide mass fingerprinting with delayed extraction-matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometry (DE-MALDI-MS). Proteins with a sequence coverage of at least 30% were introduced in the database. This sequence coverage could not always be obtained by using only the matrix alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA) for the mass analysis. Therefore, an additional mass spectrum was recorded by using 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB). Usually, additional mass peaks were detected and together with the mass spectrum of CHCA this resulted in the desired sequence coverage.

Karyotyping

Describing the number and physical features of chromosomes can reveal abnormalities that underlie genetic diseases. This description is facilitated by special staining techniques that produce a particular banding pattern on each chromosome. State-of-the-art techniques make this approach even more powerful, enabling the detection of individual genes that cause disease.A Simple Chromosome Staining Technique Provides Valuable Scientific InsightSome genetic diseases can be detected by looking at...

Two-dimensional Gel Electrophoresis

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis is a high-resolution protein separation method first introduced by O' Farrell and Klose in 1975. This method involves protein separation by two dimensions, mass and charge, making it more accurate than one-dimensional gel electrophoresis.
The first dimension separation uses the isoelectric focusing or IEF technique performed on immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strips that separate proteins according to their isoelectric points.
Biological samples, such as  cells...
