Analysis of Post-Translational Modifications Using Mass Spectrometry Format: Hardcover

• Covers all major modifications, including phosphorylation, glycosylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, sulfonation and and glycation
• Discussion of the chemistry behind each modification, along with key methods and references
• Contributions from some of the leading researchers in the field
• A valuable reference source for all laboratories undertaking proteomics, mass spectrometry and post-translational modification research

Richard Unwin is a biochemist and mass spectrometrist with over 18 years’ experience in the field of proteomics, in particular the quantification and characterization of proteins by mass spectrometry. Richard was among the first to develop the use of iTRAQ technology for protein quantitation and, with John Griffiths, was also amongst the first researchers to begin to realize the potential of multiple reaction monitoring MS for the discovery and characterization of post-translational modifications. Richard has contributed chapters on proteomics methods for a number of textbooks, aimed at both practicing mass spectrometrists and undergraduates, and has authored over 40 papers in the field.
