Abstract:
Provided herein are methods and systems for proteome analysis that are at least partially automated and/or performed robotically. In some aspects, the methods and systems described herein can rapidly and efficiently provide protein identification of each of the proteins from a proteome, or a complement of proteins, obtained from extremely small amounts of biological samples. The identified proteins can be imaged quantitatively over a spatial region. Automation and robotics facilitates the throughput of the methods and systems, which enables protein imaging and/or rapid proteome analysis.

Claim (Index 17):
A proteome analysis system comprising:\n A receiver for a NanoPOTS platform plate, the plate comprising a plurality of reactor vessels having a non-zero footprint area less than 25 mm 2 ; A receiver for a microwell plate comprising a plurality of microwells; A sample transfer sub-system comprising a transfer syringe; A motorized translation stage configured to position the transfer syringe and each of the reactor vessels in alignment to facilitate sample extraction from the reactor vessel and further configured to position the transfer syringe and each of the microwells in alignment to facilitate sample dispensing into the microwells; An autosampler comprising an autosampler syringe having a notched syringe tip, wherein the autosampler is configured to position the notched syringe tip in contact with a bottom surface of the microwell; and An MS-based analytical instrument receiving sample injections from the autosampler syringe.
