Abstract
Mass Spectrometry (MS) has become the method of fields and applications, including proteomics and proteomic analysis. MS is now routinely used to identify and quantify known and unknown proteins in our labs as a fundamental tool. Its accuracy, flexibility and sensitivity have permissed new approachs in the biological area, characterization of biopharmaceutics and diagnostic criteria. The utility of MS for simple and complex protein and peptide mixtures analyses gave us the ability to develop such accurate results within the last two decades. The development of high-throughput and quantitative MS proteomics workflows has supported to scope of what we know about protein structure, function, modification and global protein dynamics. This overview outlines the role of mass spectrometry in the field of proteomics, MS methodology and instrumentation.
