Research Abstract |
A novel methodology to profile various non-enzymatic post-translational modifications on serum albumin has been examined. This method is based on mass spectrometry combined with the group-specific immunoaffinity extraction, digestion by proteases with distinct specificity, and complementary data analyses in both positive and negative mode. This strategy can be used for profiling analyses of modifications on albumin in human serum.
