GENERAL PROTEOMICS SERVICE

Introduction

The Proteomics Unit of the UPV/EHU, located in the Faculty of Science and Technology of the Bizkaia Campus, is a general research support service whose objective is to offer its services to the research groups of the UPV/EHU and the scientific community in general.

Proteins are essential components of all living organisms and perform many vital functions. Therefore, proteomics, the large-scale study of proteins expressed in a cell, tissue or organism, has become a key technology for addressing fundamental biological questions.

The Proteomics Core Facility was established in 2004 and provides excellent infrastructure for protein analysis using mass spectrometry-based proteomic approaches. This includes a fully equipped wet lab for sample preparation, state-of-the-art mass spectrometers for LC-MS/MS experiments, and specialized bioinformatics tools for data analysis.

Equipment

The Service has a state-of-the-art instrumentation that is continually updated.

Fields of application

Mass spectrometry-based proteomics has become a powerful tool that can be used to address central questions in a wide variety of bioscience fields such as Biochemistry and Biomedicine, Pharmacy, Environment, Food and Agriculture Sciences, and Anthropology. .

Access rules

To access the Proteomics Unit, the requirements established in the SGIker access protocol and use of the available services must be met.

Application

The request for a service is made through the IKERKUDE application, which will help you maintain the traceability of all the work you carry out in the SGIker. When requesting a service, the user knows and accepts the access protocol and the rate that will be applied for the services provided.
