Protein Identification
A peptide centric (bottom up) approach using nanoLC-MS/MS and multiple modes of fragmentation (CID, HCD, ECD) to identify the amino acid sequences of peptides.

Identify and localize PTMs such as phosphorylation, acetylation and oxidation with and without enrichment strategies.
Relative Qualitative and Quantitative approaches indicating protein levels within the same sample as well as differential levels among samples. A variety of approaches exist within this category -- please read further.
Non-de novo approach, analyzing peptides of a protein of a highly pure source (including basic modifications). Multiple proteases to provide overlapping sequence information as well as alignment are often necessary. Intact analysis of the pure proteoform(s) is also complementary.
Determination of the intact molecular weight of a highly pure protein.
Absolute, targeted quantitative analysis of peptides using SRM approach.
