The Proteomics and Protein Chemistry Facility is located in Life Sciences E Wing Tower and staffed with two full-time personnel, Zachery Laughrey and John C. Lopez.
Services provided by the facility include molecular mass determinations by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, protein sequencing by automated Edman degradation, solid phase peptide synthesis using Fmoc chemistry, and amino acid analysis. In addition, the facility maintains equipment for sample purification and analysis via HPLC and perfusion chromatography, a triple-quadrapole electrospray mass spectrometry system that can be interfaced with the HPLC system for LC-MS experiments, a capillary electrophoresis system, and a spectropolarimeter for circular dichroism measurements. Use of facility equipment by graduate students and postdoctoral researchers is encouraged, and training students how to correctly use equipment in the facility is provided free of charge.
An online scheduling tool is available to reserve the equipment.
