Service Details
Polypeptides are chemical compounds composed of a series of amino acids. They are similar in structure to proteins, and play an important role in physiological processes such as blood pressure regulation, analgesia, and glucose metabolism. Peptide identification refers to detecting the sequence information of the polypeptide, so as to obtain the sequence or post-translational modification information of the polypeptide. Peptide identification is commonly performed by tandem mass spectrometry, and MS-based peptide identification typically involves fragmentation of tryptic peptides (tandem MS or MS 2) and their identification by searching protein sequence databases.

Creative Proteomics is a world-leading provider of protein sequencing services. We have a powerful mass spectrometry platform combined with bioinformatics to provide you with high-quality services. Here, our expert team provides you with comprehensive mass spectrometry-based peptide identification services.
In order to accurately identify the peptides of interest, first the peptides of interest are separated by liquid chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometer. In the mass spectrometer, the masses of the peptides are determined, then their sequences were determined by MS/MS, and then the detection any peptide sequence obtained is matched with the database, so that the peptide can be accurately identified and analyzed. The analysis process of our peptide mass spectrometry identification is as follows:
It is worth noting that the secondary mass spectrometry is similar to the primary mass spectrometry. The primary mass spectrometry detects the mass-to-charge ratio of the ionized intact peptide ion, while the secondary mass spectrometry detects the fragmented peptide ion.
