Deep Protein Sequencing, Structure and Quantification Facility

该项目旨在建立最先进的互补质谱仪，以帮助研究复杂生物样品中的分子结构和相互作用、翻译后修饰、化合物稳定性和可用性。该设施的互补质谱仪结合了高特异性、高灵敏度和超快速扫描，有望快速发现、识别和表征生物分子，包括肽、蛋白质和小分子。未知化合物的发现预计将增进对分子结构和功能的基本了解，为卫生和环境领域的新生物产业提供机会，并通过衍生公司、专利和许可产生商业机会。

This project aims to establish state-of-the-art complementary mass spectrometers to help research into molecular structure and interactions, post-translational modifications, compound stability and availability within complex biological samples. The facility’s complementary mass spectrometers combine high specificity with high sensitivity and ultrafast scanning, and are expected to rapidly discover, identify and characterise biomolecules including peptides, proteins and small molecules. The discovery of unknown compounds is expected to improve fundamental understanding of molecular structure and function, provide opportunities for new bio-industries in health and the environment, and generate commercial opportunities through spin-off companies, patents and licensing.
