2013 ICORE Teachers "Omics" Workshop
(July
17 -19, 2013 in ICBR Education and Training Lab, Chen Lab and Polfer Lab)
Sponsored by the National Science
Foundation and the UF CPET program
|
|
Introduction of the Proteomics
Lab by Ms. Drew Joseph from ICORE and Dr. Sixue Chen, Associate Professor
from Biology Department
|
|
Dr. Chen introduces proteomics, plant materials and the objectives of
the workshop
|
Sample preparation
|
|
Separation
of proteins extracted from pathogen-infected tomato leaves on SDS
polyacrylamide gels
|
|
|
Visualization
of gel images and excising protein bands for “fingerprinting”
identification
|
|
|
Ms. Drew Joseph works with the teachers
|
|
|
|
Mr. Jon Benskin, a high school teacher from Boca Raton Community High
School presents his proteomics lab protocol.
|
|
|
|
Spotting protein digest on MALDI plate for peptide mass
fingerprinting
|
|
|
Mr. Ning Zhu from the Chen lab shows how to fire the laser on a
MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer
|
|
|
|
A lot of hands-on experiments including peptide mass fingerprint
acquisition and database searching to identify the unknown protein, cool
stuff.

|
Dr. Cecilia Silva-Sanchez explains MALDI-TOF/TOF technology
|
|
|
Dr. Sixue Chen demonstrates the nanoflow
liquid chromatography system
|
|
|
Dr. Chen introduces the high-end LC-MS/MS system and demonstrates MS/MS
spectrum acquisition workflow
|
|
|
Dr. Nick Polfer explains the Orbitrap technology
