Capture Compounds for the functional isolation of nucleotide interacting proteins

Abstract

The innovative Capture Compound mass spectrometry (CCMS) technology allows the functional reduction of biological sample complexity. Small synthetic molecules (Capture Compounds) are used to interrogate native and even transmembrane proteins. Using nucleotide derivates as bait molecules allows discovery, isolation and profiling of interacting proteins from complex biological samples. Nucleotide-derived Capture Compounds are available as ready-to-use caproKits for proteomic research.
