CarNHum Project Neanderthals, Early Anatomically Modern Humans and carnivores. Deciphering their interactions through proteomics, paleogenetics and radiocarbon dating Ghent University
CarNHum project is designed to investigate the interactions of Neanderthals, early anatomically modern humans and carnivores through proteomics, paleogenetics and radiocarbon dating. Firstly, through the identification of bone assemblages with signs of carnivore activity associated with the early Aurignacian, it will be investigated whether humans were a frequent prey for carnivores. This will thus provide new insights into human-carnivore ...
Context-aware identification of kinase-substrate association and protein phosphorylation through large scale proteomics experiment reprocessing. Ghent University
Protein function is highly regulated by the co-ordinated expression and interaction in different tissues and the correct localization within different sub-cellular compartments. A common mechanism for protein regulation are post-translational modifications (PTMs). Protein phosphorylation is the most prevalent and well-studied PTM in eukaryotes, with involvement in diseases such as cancer and Alzheimer’s. This reversible modification is ...

PEA histone modification proteomics Ghent University
Olink's groundbreaking proteomics panels help scientists discover human protein biomarkers. Proximity Extension Assay (PEA) technology measures up to 1463 unique proteins in 88 samples simultaneously, starting from less than 3 microliters from nearly any type of biological sample. Unique application domains are located where mass spectrometry (MS) based proteomics is suboptimal. Samples such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), microdialysis ...
Special Research Fund Professorship in proteomics Ghent University
A professorship granted by the Special Research Fund is a primarily research-oriented position and is made available for excellent researchers with a high-quality research programme.
Automated sample preparation for mass spectrometry-based proteomics using the DigestPro MSi instrument. Ghent University
Mass spectrometers are essential instruments for contemporary proteome analysis. Typically, proteins are digested into peptides prior to analysis. In our labs this crucial step is not automated, implying that variation is inevitably introduced by manual intervention. Here, by installing a robot for fully automated sample preparation we will increase the overall quality of our proteome research.
Using molecular signaling profile in white blood cells measured by highly-sensitive mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics in the differential diagnosis between major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder. University of Antwerp
Proteomics Expertise Center Ugent Ghent University
The Proteomics Expertise center groups expertise in (quantitative analysis) of proteins, their post-translational modifications en their interactions using mass spectrometry technology. It shares it facilities with researchers who need proteomics for functional research on proteins in the broad application field of Life Sciences (biomedical, food, environment)
