SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROTEOME ANALYSIS AND DATA MANAGEMENT

摘要

A system and method for storing, searching for, and analyzing proteome related information obtained through 2-dimensional electrophoresis, which is a common biological research technique, are provided. The system provides a proteme search and analysis function in a client/server environment using an experimental database storing experimental proteome data and the results of identifying unknown experimental proteins and a reference proteome database storing a large amount of validated reference proteome data. The system can search for desired data using keywords, 2-dimensional gel images, protein expression profiles, isoelectric point, molecular weight, peptide mass fingerprinting (PMF) data, protein sequence information, etc., and characterizes an unknown protein based on the searched data.
