The mass spectrometry-compatible yeast and human protein extracts are designed specifically for mass spectrometry applications.

The extracts are predigested and cleaned up by solid-phase extraction for immediate use in liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) analysis. Both the yeast and human extracts also are available in an intact undigested form to provide a test material for optimizing mass spec protein sample preparation. The yeast extracts are beneficial for users who prefer working with a relatively compact and well studied proteome, whereas the human extract provides opportunity for working with a complex proteome having a large dynamic range. Consistent extract protein composition is ensured by tight control over cell culture conditions and manufacturing process.

Lot-to-lot consistency of extracts is monitored by various protein and peptide qualitative and quantitation methods, including LC/MS and amino acid analysis (Table 1). Our manufacturing process assures compatibility with reverse phase liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry by monitoring nonspecific protein fragmentation, nonbiological post-translational modifications and, for digested extracts, minimal undigested peptides.


Features & Benefits:

  • Compatible with LC/MS instrumentation platforms.
  • Minimal nonbiological post-translational modifications.
  • Peptide quantity measured by AAA.
  • Model systems for method development/instrument monitoring.
  • Multiple formats (digest/intact).
Application NoteSeparations

Reference Yeast and Human Whole Cell Protein Extracts for Mass Spectrometry Instrument Performance Monitoring and Method Development

This application note, two protein extraction formats are described: pre-digested extracts, for monitoring instrument performance, and intact protein extracts, for optimization of sample preparation. To be compatible with mass spectrometry applications, extracts need to meet certain requirements, like freedom from detergents, high protein integrity and high reproducibility. Here, whole cell protein extracts from yeast and human cells that meet those criteria are described.

Quantus™ Fluorometer

Promega Corp.

  The Quantus™ Fluorometer is an easy-to-use and affordable single-tube fluorometer.   The highly sensitive instrument is preprogrammed with QuantiFluor® Dye protocols for single-stranded DNA, double-stranded DNA and RNA quantitation but is also compatible with other fluorescent assays. Quantus™ Fluorometer does the math for you and displays your concentration after each measurement automatically. No computer is required. The Quantus™ Fluorometer will save and display the 20 most recent measurements. However, the fluorometer can be connected to a computer to transfer data in real time. Quantus™ Fluorometer Features: High Performance - Integrated with QuantiFluor® Dyes for high sensitivity, broad dynamic range and target specificity. Great for low-level sample quantitation such as FFPE or viral samples. Increased Sensitivity - Significantly increased sensitivity over absorbance at 260nm (NanoDrop®) for those samples that are low in concentration. Ten times more sensitive than Qubit® 2.0. A detection limit of 50pg/ml, compared to 500pg/ml for the Qubit® 2.0. With a customized low standard curve, the detection limit can read as low as 1pg/ml. Easy-to-Use Workflow and Navigation - Flexible with custom protocols and user-defined settings. PC software for data management workflow. Affordable Price - Cost-effective to easily incorporate into your laboratory.

6 × 5 LC-MS/MS Peptide Reference Mix

Promega Corp.

A Complete Solution for Monitoring LC and MS Instrument Quality Control and Performance. In combination with an accompanying software tool, the 6 × 5 LC-MS/MS Peptide Reference Mix provides a convenient way to assess LC column performance and MS instrument parameters, including sensitivity and dynamic range. Consists of 30 peptides; 6 sets of 5 isotopologues of the same peptide sequence, differing only in the number of stable, heavy-labeled amino acids incorporated into the sequence Labels are uniform 13C and 15N atoms. Isotopologues are chromatographically indistinguishable; however, since they differ in mass, they are clearly resolved by mass spectrometry. The isotopologues of each peptide are present in a series of tenfold dilutions. This format allows assessment of instrument dynamic range and sensitivity from a single run. The 6 × 5 LC-MS/MS Peptides are AAA-qualified for accurate monitoring, and are compatible with multiple applications and neat or complex mixtures.
