摘要:
The present invention relates to kits and methods for the isotopic/isobaric labeling and the subsequent affinity selection and analysis of proteinaceous molecules. In particular, the invention relates to a kit-of-parts comprising a combinatorial plurality of labeling reagent for the labeling of proteinaceous molecules, each labeling reagent comprising an isobaric label component, an isotopic label component, and a reactive group capable of reacting with a proteinaceous molecule, wherein the isotopic label component concomitantly is an affinity tag. The invention is also directed to a corresponding method for the analysis of proteinaceous molecules, comprising labeling at least one subset of the proteinaceous molecules present by employing a kit-of-parts as defined herein and subsequently separating the labeled molecules by affinity purification via the affinity tag comprised in the label. Finally, the invention relates to the uses of such methods for protein expression profiling or proteomic analyses.
