Proteomics Delivers on its Promise:
Using Innovative Mass Spectrometry to Pave the Way
for Multi-protein Biomarker Verification
The primary goal of this presentation is to highlight a workflow for the integration of unbiased biomarker discovery with hypothesis-driven, targeted assay development in a seamless manner. Mass spectrometry has typically been the technology of choice in the search for proteomic biomarkers, but the translation of this information into high-throughput assays that facilitate the verification of putative markers has not been straightforward.
SRM-based assays provide a powerful vehicle for the verification and implementation of putative biomarker information derived from high resolution LC-MS/MS experiments because of their selectivity, sensitivity, robustness and speed.
In this report, we describe the development and application of bioinformatic algorithms, including a novel application of ROC curves allowing efficient mining of LC-MS/MS discovery data with subsequent integration into SRM methods, thus paving the way for future biomarker verification with larger clinical cohorts.
