Glycoprotein Stable Isotope Quantification Analysis Service

    Glycoproteins are vital biomolecules with structural, regulatory, and signaling functions across biology. Their role in immune defense, enzymatic processes, intercellular communication, and therapeutic drug design makes them indispensable targets of modern biomedical research. Glycoprotein Stable Isotope Quantification Analysis involves measuring the abundance of glycosylated peptides or intact glycoproteins through the use of isotopic tracers such as 13C, 15N, 18O, deuterium, or stable isotope-labeled chemical tags. When combined with liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), this method allows precise quantification of site-specific glycosylation occupancy, glycoform distribution, and structural heterogeneity under different experimental conditions. Compared to conventional label-free methods, stable isotope-based approaches offer higher accuracy, reproducibility, and sensitivity for glycoprotein studies. Such quantitative insights are critical for biopharmaceutical development, biomarker discovery, systems biology, and comparative clinical studies.

     

    Service at MtoZ Biolabs

    MtoZ Biolabs offers a complete Glycoprotein Stable Isotope Quantification Analysis Service designed to provide precise quantitative insights into glycosylation. Leveraging advanced isotopic labeling strategies, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and powerful bioinformatics pipelines, our service ensures reliable and reproducible results tailored to client needs.

     

    Our service platform covers a wide range of stable isotope quantification strategies:

    💠Metabolic Labeling (e.g., SILAC)

    Stable isotope-labeled amino acids are incorporated into proteins during cell culture, enabling accurate relative quantification across different samples.

     

    💠Chemical Labeling (e.g., iTRAQ, TMT)

    Isobaric tags carrying stable isotopes are covalently attached to peptides or glycopeptides, allowing multiplexed comparison of up to 16 samples in a single LC-MS run.

     

    💠Enzymatic or In-solution Incorporation

    Enzymatic reactions such as trypsin digestion in 18O-labeled water introduce isotopic signatures, providing internal standards for quantification.

     

    💠Spiked Isotopic Standards

    Synthetic glycopeptides or proteins with isotopic labeling are introduced into samples as external or internal standards, enabling absolute quantification.

     

    💠Dimethyl Labeling

    A cost-effective chemical labeling method that offers efficient and accurate relative quantification of glycoproteins in complex mixtures.
