2014 Annual Meeting

October 28 - November 2, 2012

Studies of protein expression patterns play a vital role in understanding the complex responses of cells, tissues, and organisms to stimuli or mutations. While recent developments have allowed these patterns to be investigated at an unprecedented level of detail, further advances are needed in order to fully illuminate the interplay among the many factors governing cellular response. Specifically, new technologies are needed that provide quantitative information with high sensitivity and throughput. This session will focus on the development of such proteomic technologies and their applications. Of particular interest are papers describing advances in electrophoretic protein separations, novel means of detecting and quantifying proteins, methods of analyzing specific protein classes, mass spectroscopic methods, and other related technologies. Papers are also sought that present research on the proteomic analysis of post-translational modifications.
