The identification and validation of drug targets are fundamental to the development of effective therapeutics. Traditional target discovery approaches, such as genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics, provide valuable information about potential targets. However, these methods often fail to capture the full complexity of proteolytic regulation, post-translational processing, and functional peptide signaling. Peptidomics, the large-scale study of endogenous peptides, offers a powerful and complementary perspective that reveals biologically active peptides and their associated precursor proteins, protease networks, and disease-related cleavage events.
Peptidomics focuses on low-molecular-weight peptides naturally present in cells, tissues, and biofluids. These peptides serve as functional messengers, enzymatic substrates, or degradation products that reflect the physiological and pathological state of a biological system. By profiling peptide changes in response to drug treatment or disease progression, researchers can uncover novel targets, monitor protease activity, and explore peptide–receptor interactions critical for therapeutic intervention.

MtoZ Biolabs helps clients achieve the following:
💠Identification of Novel Drug Targets
Our peptidomics platform enables the identification of previously unrecognized bioactive peptides and their associated precursor proteins. By profiling the peptidome in disease models, we help pinpoint new drug targets that could be leveraged for therapeutic intervention.
💠Disease Mechanism Research
We assist in unraveling the complex molecular mechanisms underlying diseases by analyzing peptide-level changes in response to drug treatments. This insight aids in understanding how drugs modulate disease pathways at the molecular level, uncovering key regulatory peptides involved in disease progression.
💠Drug Repurposing
By profiling the peptidome of drug-treated cells or tissues, we identify unexpected peptide responses that could suggest new uses for existing drugs. This service helps to uncover alternative therapeutic applications for established compounds.
💠Peptide-Based Therapeutic Development
MtoZ Biolabs supports the development of peptide-based therapeutics by identifying bioactive peptides that can serve as drug candidates. Our service helps in screening and validating peptide candidates that could potentially be developed into targeted therapies for specific diseases.
💠Drug Resistance Research
Through the study of peptide alterations in response to drug treatments, we support research into drug resistance mechanisms. This includes identifying resistance-associated peptides and understanding how bacteria or cancer cells evade drug efficacy, offering new avenues for combatting resistance.
Analysis Workflow
1. Sample Preparation
Biological samples are processed using enzyme-free extraction to enrich endogenous peptides.
2. Peptide Purification
Peptides are desalted and fractionated using SPE or high-pH RPLC to reduce complexity and improve detection.
3. LC-MS/MS Analysis
Peptides are analyzed using high-resolution LC-MS/MS platforms to ensure accurate mass detection and fragmentation for precise peptide identification and characterization.
4. Database Search
MS data are searched against curated protein databases to identify peptide sequences and origins.
5. Bioinformatics-Based Target Discovery
Identified peptides are quantitatively analyzed across experimental groups. Statistical and clustering analyses are used to highlight differentially expressed peptides. Integrated functional annotation, pathway enrichment, and peptide-protein interaction mapping are performed to infer putative drug targets.
6. Validation and Functional Interpretation
Candidate targets are cross-validated using external databases and literature mining. Peptides related to known or novel disease mechanisms are prioritized for follow-up studies or functional assays.
7. Custom Reporting
Comprehensive analysis reports include peptide profiles, quantitative results, target candidates, interaction networks, and mechanistic interpretations tailored to the client's research focus and therapeutic interests.
