Synopsis

Targeted proteomics is a technology for detecting proteins of interest with high sensitivity, quantitative accuracy, and reproducibility. The analysis of a pre-defined group of proteins provides precise, quantitative, and sensitive data to scientists and clinicians and can provide information on a subset of proteins important for their biological function. In this volume, a panel of high-profile contributors provides an overview of targeted proteomics in biomedical science. The book is focused on current state-of-the-art technology and applications, and it will be a valuable source of information for everyone working in this field. The first part of the book provides detailed examples of the application of targeted proteomics in biomarker discovery and pathogenesis. The second part is focused on the various tools used in targeted proteomics, including bioinformatics approaches, while the final section is dedicated to biobanks, a vital aspect of targeted proteomics. The book is highly recommended for anyone interested in proteomics, disease pathogenesis, clinical protein science, and biomarker discovery.
