This volume describes protocols for basic state-of-the-art approaches in the field of
peptidomics. Most of these approaches are independent of the instruments used for analysis and
can easily be adapted for equipment that is available in a typical proteomics facility.
Chapters detail many of the basic techniques used to detect and identify peptides methods for
the relative quantitation of peptides between samples using isotopic labels or label-free
approaches and biological species as well as sample types. Written in the highly successful
format of the Methods in Molecular Biology series each chapter includes an introduction to the
topic a list of the necessary materials and reagents reproducible step-by-step laboratory
protocols and tips on troubleshooting common problems and avoiding pitfalls.Authoritative and
practical Peptidomics: Methods and Strategies provides useful guidance for studies in the
rapidly growing field of peptidomics.
