Increasing throughput of proteomics @parallelsq.bsky.social‬

A bit dense, but the important message is dead simple:

We got to cite the E = mc² paper!

Kidding :)

The important part is that combinations of isotopes unlock 100-1000x gains in protein measurement speed.

How to design 1000-plex mass tags using the differential mass defect
Multiplexing samples in mass spectrometry-based proteomics has long been accomplished by isotopologues of small molecules. These chemically-identical "mass tags" conjugate to peptides to encode sample...

Members of PTI have developed mass tags which improve spectral quality and enable 9-plexDIA in a project lead by @harrisons.bsky.social
🧪 Transforming biomedical discovery needs proteomics that is specific and accurate, but also faster and cheaper

@parallelsq.bsky.social is proud to introduce 9-plex PSMtags: a new mass tag that improves sequencing and increases throughput in sensitive proteomics 👇

We are excited to introduce ‘time’ as a new domain for proteomics multiplexing!

It enables:
-Label-free multiplexing
-Combinatorial multiplexing with plexDIA

Using combined 9-plexDIA and 3-timePlex we demonstrate 27-plex DIA 🚀
