| 摘要 |
A method for identifying one or more proteins or other macromolecules comprises contacting the proteins or other macromolecules or a material that contains them with soluble fluorescent labels and/or Raman labels that bind to at least two different functional groups, side chains or moieties that may be present on or in proteins or other macromolecules, determining the ratio of the two or more functional groups, side chains or moieties, and comparing that ratio with ratios of the said functional groups, side chains or moieties in known proteins or other macromolecules. Kits for carrying out such a process contain fluorescent and/or Raman labels that bind to two or more of said functional groups, side chains or moieties, a database or other medium containing information respecting the ratio of said functional groups, side chains or other moieties in known proteins or other macromolecules, and software for comparing the measured ratio of labels to the predicted ratio of labels to identify the proteins or other macromolecules.
