The basic principle of mass spectrometry proteomics is to analyze the physical and chemical properties of ions of the tested sample, and obtain qualitative and quantitative results according to the mass spectrum of the sample. At present, proteomics mass spectrometry is generally based on the three dimensions of retention time (retention time), mass-to-charge ratio (m/z), and ionic strength (intensity) to identify and quantify peptide proteins, that is, 3D proteomics.
4D proteomics adds a fourth dimension, ion mobility, on top of 3D proteomics, which mainly separates ions based on the shape and cross-section of the ions, and can distinguish peptides with very small m/z, so that low-abundance protein signals can be distinguished and identified. 4D proteomics is based on the timsTOF Pro mass spectrometer, allows repeated measurement of the collision cross-section (CCS) of all detected ions for proteome characterization and quantification with broader coverage, better reproducibility, and faster acquisition speed.
timsTOF Pro mass spectrometer
Based on timsTOF Pro, we have launched 4D proteomics services, including 4D Label-free, 4D-DIA, 4D phosphorylation, and other 4D post-translational modification services to help research in microsample proteomics, large cohort clinical samples, and high-throughput PTMomics (post-translational modification omics).
4D-DIA Quantitative Proteomics Service
Based on timsTOFPro, it has high scanning speed and high sensitivity, while reducing the complexity of the spectrum and improving the ion utilization rate.
4D Label-Free Proteomics Service
The accuracy and the depth of identification, the accuracy of quantification, and the detection cycle have been greatly improved, and the sample size requirements have been greatly reduced.
4D label-free PTMs Proteomics is based on the new generation of timsTOFPro mass spectrometer, which can effectively distinguish modified isomeric peptides and greatly improve the depth of modification identification, with the advantages of less loading volume and faster scanning speed.
