| 摘要 |
Methods for enhancing separation and analysis of biological molecules, particularly proteins, and for characterizing tissue, cell, and subcellular (e.g., organelle) expressed protein profiles (proteomes or protein fingerprints) are disclosed. Multi-dimensional diagrams that illustrate the characteristics of the proteins in a sample, based at least in part on interactions between proteins in the system can be produced. In certain embodiments, the diagrams are three-dimensional and incorporate information on protein-protein interactions, protein charge, and protein size for substantially all of the protein species in the sample. Also described are methods of using the provided multi-dimensional diagrams to detect changes in biological systems that are for instance due to disease, drug treatment, environmental condition, and so forth. Methods are provided for correlating changes in three-dimensional proteomic diagrams to disease diagnosis and prognosis, toxicology, therapeutic compound (e.g., drug or hormone) efficacy and mode of action, and drug design.
