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.
