Analysis Of Adp-Ribosylation And Protein Sample Preparation By Capillary Electrophoresis, Ming Huang
Analysis Of Adp-Ribosylation And Protein Sample Preparation By Capillary Electrophoresis, Ming Huang
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
ADP-ribosylation is one of many biologically important protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) that received considerable research interest in the past decade. The first part of this work presents the analysis of ADP-ribosylation, with special focus on the catalytic domain of an enzyme ARTD-10. The application of capillary electrophoresis (CE) is proposed in this work to separate the in vitro enzymatic mono-ADP-ribosylated ARTD-10 catalytic domain and its unmodified form. Another exciting aspect of CE application with growing interest is the sample preparation. The effectiveness and efficiency for in-vial reaction, in-capillary mixed reaction and on-capillary-tip reaction by performing methyl esterification on phophopeptides were …
Miniaturized Fractionation And Purification Of Analytes Of Interest In Complex Mixtures: Protein Enrichment And Purification With Capillary Electrophoresis And Identification Of Pesticide Chemicals In Bio-Oils, Christina J. Booker
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
The ability to isolate and detect an analyte of interest is vital for many different facets of life today, from disease detection to environmental safety. The goal of the method development discussed within this thesis is to isolate and identify unique analytes from complex matrices and to do so in a scaled down approach. Removal of an analyte from a diverse background of molecules is often required for successful detection and determination of analyte properties. As well, many samples are only available at low volumes and at trace levels so miniaturized techniques that only require small sample volumes are designed …
