Differential protein expression patterns related to disease states

The present invention is a method for determining protein expression profiles in disease or an altered biological state. The method is based on the use of two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis where the gel images are assigned two different colors. The gels are then compared by an overlay procedu...

Zusammenfassung:The present invention is a method for determining protein expression profiles in disease or an altered biological state. The method is based on the use of two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis where the gel images are assigned two different colors. The gels are then compared by an overlay procedure that allows for identification and quantification of unique proteins by determining which colors are detected in the superimposed images and the density of those colors.
