Language(s) of instruction :
French language
Organisation and examination :
Teaching in the second semester
Units courses prerequisite and corequisite :
Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Course contents :
A course on modern proteomics covering the following parts:
- Comparative protemic analysis
- Clinical proteomics
- Mass spectrometry
Learning outcomes of the course :
  • Proteomics, partim comparative proteomic analysis (Pierre Leprince):
- Genomics and proteomics, promises and reality - Protein chemistry facts useful for proteomic research - Classical electrophoretic analysis techniques - 2D-DIGE: principles and methods - Samples preparation and processing - Electrophoretic separation and gel analysis - Tools for gel image analysis : Decyder DIA, BVA - Spot picking and tryptic digestion - Results validation - Technical bias and limitations -Examples of comparative proteomic analysis of physiological and pathological responses
A 2h practical demonstration is taking place in the proteomics laboratory at the CNCM (B36)
 
 




  • Clinical proteomic (Marianne Fillet)
- Introduction - Novel technologies used for clinical proteomic - Sample preparation for body fluid samples - Statistical and bioinformatics tools - Identification and validation of new diseases biomarkers; - Prediction responses to therapy and diseases follow-up
A 2h practical demonstration is taking place in the proteomics platform at GIGA+2 (B24)
 

 



  • Proteomics: Partim Mass Spectrometry (Gabriel Mazzucchelli):
- The basics of mass spectropmetry :Ion sources ESI, MALDI - Mass analyzers : TOF, quadripole, IT, Orbitrap, FT-ICR - Mass spectrometers according to the needs - Separation methods and coupling with ion sources (ESI, MALDI) - Multidimensional mass spectrometry - Proteins identification (bottom up, top down) - de novo sequencing - Structural methods on intact proteins: ECD, EDD, IRMPD, H/D exchange, ion mobility - Relative and absolute quantification using isotopic labelling, label free quantitation - Non-covalent complexes
A two hours practical demonstration will be held in the Mass Spectrometry Laboratory (building B6c).
