Parasites Peptidomics Analysis Service
Parasites peptidomics analysis utilizes advanced technologies such as mass spectrometry to comprehensively identify, quantify, and functionally annotate endogenous peptides derived from parasitic organisms. This approach has been widely applied in the investigation of parasite life cycle regulation, virulence factor identification, and the discovery of anti-infective therapeutic targets, offering new perspectives for the prevention and treatment of parasitic diseases.
As a CRO specializing in proteomics and multi-omics, MtoZ Biolabs offers a one-stop Parasites Peptidomics Analysis Service that covers sample preparation, mass spectrometry-based peptide profiling, data processing, and bioinformatic interpretation. Leveraging high-resolution mass spectrometry systems such as Orbitrap Fusion Lumos and Q Exactive HF-X, alongside optimized peptide enrichment strategies, we support researchers in profiling parasite-specific peptide expression patterns and advancing parasitology research.
Services at MtoZ Biolabs
MtoZ Biolabs' Parasites Peptidomics Analysis Service is based on high-resolution liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), combined with customized sample preparation and professional bioinformatics workflows. Our comprehensive and sensitive peptidomics solutions include, but are not limited to:
1. Peptide Identification: Detect endogenous peptides expressed under different physiological states of the parasite and determine their amino acid sequences.
2. Quantitative Analysis: Utilize strategies such as label-free quantification or TMT-based multiplexing to compare peptide expression levels across various experimental conditions.
3. Modified Peptide Detection: Identify post-translationally modified peptides, including phosphorylation and acetylation, to uncover parasite-specific signaling mechanisms.
4. Virulence-Associated Peptides: Discover functional peptides potentially linked to parasitic infectivity and pathogenicity.
5. Host-Parasite Interaction Peptides: Profile key peptides involved in the molecular interactions between the parasite and its host.
By integrating multi-dimensional peptide data, MtoZ Biolabs delivers reliable and comprehensive parasitic peptidomic profiles to support functional validation and downstream target discovery.
Analysis Workflow
1. Protein Extraction
Parasite tissues, culture supernatants, or secretions are lysed and pretreated to extract total protein based on the study design.
2. Enzymatic Digestion
Proteins are digested using enzymes such as trypsin, followed by peptide enrichment and desalting using StageTip or SP2 magnetic bead methods.
3. LC-MS/MS Analysis
Peptides are analyzed on high-resolution Orbitrap-based instruments to obtain accurate mass spectrometric data.
4. Data Analysis
Peptides are identified and quantified by searching against parasite-specific databases, including identification of modified peptides.
5. Bioinformatic Analysis
Includes functional annotation, pathway enrichment, site-specific analysis, and biological insight generation.
6. Report Generation
A standardized technical report and visual outputs are generated, including comprehensive data tables and graphics for interpretation and publication.
