Identification of human myocard proteins separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis

N-Terminal sequencing, internal sequencing and amino acid analysis were used to identify twelve proteins of the human myocard two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) pattern. Amino acid analysis was shown to be a powerful tool in addition to sequencing. The identification of a disease-associated N-terminally blocked protein by internal sequencing was not successful. The twelve identified proteins are the basis of a human myocard 2-DE database.
