High-Density Peptide MicroArrays and high-throughput, label-free detection of peptides, modifications and interactions (HIPAD)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Apr 30, 2016,

Proteins are extremely malleable building blocks of life involved in all aspects of biology. Many diseases are caused by proteins aberrations, and proteins are frequent targets of intervention. Mapping all proteins and their functions are expected to yield pervasive medical and biotechnological benefits. However, even the most comprehensive and high-throughput proteins discovery technologies are s ...
