✦ Synopsis
An image based two-dimensional (2-D) reference map of very alkaline yeast cell proteins was established by using immobilized pH gradients (IPG) up to pH 12 (IPG 6-12, IPG 9-12 and IPG 10-12) for 2-D electrophoresis and by using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry peptide mass fingerprinting for spot identification. Up to now 106 proteins with theoretical isoelectric points up to pH 11.15 and molecular mass between 7.5 and 115 kDa were localized and identified. Additionally, due to the improved resolution of steady-state isoelectric focussing with IPGs, even low copy number proteins with codon bias below 0.02 were detected and identified.
