With the successful implementation of the Human Genome Project, the focus of life science research has gradually shifted to the overall study of biological functions. The research on the expression pattern and function pattern of protein, the main embodiment or executor of biological function, has become the development trend of life science.
The concept of proteome was first proposed by Australian scholars in 1995. It is derived from the heterozygosity of protein and genome, which refers to all proteins expressed by a genome, a cell tissue or an organism in a specific time and space. The research on proteomics is mainly to study the composition and activity of proteins in cells at the overall level.
The specific research contents of proteomics include: protein qualitative and quantitative analysis, protein post-translational modifications, protein structure, protein function, small molecule-protein and protein-protein interaction, etc. Quantitative methods contain label free and label(SILAC, iTRAQ, TMT, etc.).
When the latest developments in chemistry and biology merged, a new interdisciplinary research field was created, namely chemical proteomics or chemoproteomics. Chemical proteomics is a new field which is still expanding and has not been definitively defined in the academic circles. As a new technology in the post-genome era, it is the bridge and link between proteome and drug target research, as well as drug discovery. Based on the current development direction and research results of chemical proteomics, it can be considered that the research method of chemical proteomics is to use chemical small molecules that can specifically interact with target proteins to interfere with and detect the proteome, to systematically reveal the function of specific proteins and their interaction with chemical small molecules at the molecular level, so as to accurately find the binding site of small chemical molecules (including drugs), that is, the targets.
The techniques of chemical proteomics include: activity-based protein profiling (ABPP), affinity-based protein profiling (AfBPP), thermal protein profiling (TPP) , drug affinity responsive target stability (DARTS), limited proteolysis-small molecule mapping(Lip-SMAP), stability of proteins from rates of oxidation (SPROX), etc.
Leadart has established a complete chemical proteomics platform based on ABPP and AfBPP, providing target identification and validation services for active compounds, filling the gap in the field of domestic proteomics services. In addition, Leadart also undertakes regular proteomics services.
Peptidomics

Peptide group refers to all endogenous polypeptides in biological tissues or body fluids, including signal molecules (such as cytokines, growth factors, and hormones), antibacterial peptides, and immune peptides. These small peptides have been confirmed by more and more studies to have important biological significance. Peptidomics is a discipline that studies the structure, function, change rules and related relationships of peptide groups. Peptidomics is a supplement to proteomics. Peptomics can search for peptide markers with biological significance and screen potential therapeutic drugs with biological activity.

Conventional Proteomics

The concept of proteome was first proposed by Australian scholars in 1995. It is derived from the hybridization of the two words protein and genome, which refers to a specific time and space. Genome, all the proteins expressed by a cell tissue or an organism. The study of proteomics is called proteomics, which is mainly to study the composition and activity of proteins in cells at the overall level. The specific research content of proteomics includes: protein qualitative and quantitative analysis, protein post-translational modification research, protein structure research, protein function research, small molecule-protein and protein-protein interaction research, etc. Quantitative analysis is divided into non-labeled quantification (label free) and labeled quantification (SILAC, iTraq, TMT, etc.).

Case Study

Baicalin is an active ingredient in a class of natural products. It has been found to reduce the accumulation of lipids in cells. In order to study its corresponding protein targets and biological activity mechanisms, the researchers designed probe molecules corresponding to its active ingredients and carried out chemistry. The identification of proteomics found that the protein target corresponding to baicalin was CPT1A, and through subsequent binding experiments, in vitro activity experiments, and animal phenotyping experiments, the mechanism of its CPT1A target was verified, and it was successful. The anti-obesity and anti-steatosis effects of baicalin depend on its interaction with CPT1A.
