Central Proteomics Facility

Oxford Proteomics Community - This area is under development. This page will provide links to research groups in Oxford successfully using proteomics in their research. It will summarise their interests and highlight the techniques they are using.

Research Groups (Partial List)

• Gull Group: using DIGE and iTRAQ to examine the structure of trypanosome flagellar.


• Acuto Group: using TiO2 enrichment of phosphopeptides, SILAC, FLAG tag and strep tag systems to study the T-cell signalling complex.


• Zitzmann Group(Oxford Antiviral Drug Discovery): - 2D-PAGE and MS to analyse virus-induced cell signalling pathways, virus-host interactions and identification of biomarkers in viral disease.


• Fodor Group: using TAP tagging to examine proteins interacting with Influenza RNA polymerase.


• Malloy Group: using 2D gels, western blotting and MALDI TOF TOF mass spectrometry to identify immunogenic bacterial proteins.


• Norbury Group using TAP tagging in yeast to identify protein interaction partners.


• Sweetlove Group (Plant Sciences) using LC MSMS to develop a novel protein quantitation method.


• Vaux Group using MALDI TOF mass spectrometry to examine protease activity and proteoytic products in Alzheimers.


• Computational Biology Research Group are helping develop software to support proteomics research.


• CPF (Headington) provides proteomics support to the Headington Hospital sites.


• Mathias Dreger runs the proteomics facilty for Oxion in the Department of Physiology, Anatomy and Genetics. Equipped with a Bruker MALDI TOF TOF instrument and Free Flow Electrophoresis.


• Colin Goding's (Marie Curie Research Institute) group are using mass spectrometry to determine acetylation patterns.


• Murphy Group: using tagging strategies and mass spectrometry to identify protein interaction partners.


• Barclay Group: using chemical tags and mass spectrometry to probe cell membranes.
