  • Patent number: 7069151
    Abstract: The present invention relates to protein separation systems and methods capable of resolving and characterizing large numbers of cellular proteins. In particular, the present invention provides a novel mass mapping system and methods for the differential display of proteins. The present invention further provides novel methods for displaying differential protein expression between two samples. In particular, the present invention provides novel method of mapping differential expression of proteins in non-cancerous, pre-cancerous, and cancerous cells.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 7, 2001
    Date of Patent: June 27, 2006
    Assignee: Regents of the University of Michigan
    Inventors: David M. Lubman, Bathsheba E. Chong, Stephen J. Parus
  • Publication number: 20040033591
    Abstract: The present invention relates to automated methods, systems, and apparatuses for protein separation and analysis. In particular, the present invention provides an automated system for the separation, identification, and characterization of protein samples. The present invention thus provides improved methods for the separation and analysis of samples containing a plurality of proteins (e.g., cells).

  • Publication number: 20040010126
    Abstract: The present invention relates to multiphase protein separation methods capable of resolving large numbers of cellular proteins. The methods of the present invention provide protein profile maps for imaging and comparing protein expression patterns. The present invention provides alternatives to traditional 2-D gel separation methods for the screening of protein profiles.

  • Publication number: 20030064527
    Abstract: The present invention relates to multi-phase protein separation methods capable of resolving and characterizing large numbers of cellular proteins, including methods for efficiently facilitating the transfer of protein samples between separation phases. In particular, the present invention provides systems and methods for the differential display of protein samples from multiple cell types. The present invention thus provides improved methods for the analysis of multiple samples containing large numbers of proteins.
