Proteomics
Head: Doc. RNDr. Zbyněk Zdráhal, Dr.
Main Activity
Mass spectrometry – based proteomics. Activities of the Core Facility cover all steps of proteomic analysis – protein isolation, separation of protein mixtures, protein characterisation by mass spectrometry and bioinformatic data processing.
Unique Features
The Core Facility provides academic community and other subjects with access to advanced proteomic technologies based on shared resources and highly trained staff. The concentration of expensive instrumentation and know-how results in fast responses to the demands of the research community and the effective utilization of resources.
Key Equipment (Core Facility fully operational from 2014)
- High-resolution mass spectrometer (FTMS)
- Hybrid mass spectrometer (e.g. Q-LIT)
- MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometer
