Transcriptome and Proteome Research in Veterinary Science: What Is Possible and What Questions Can Be Asked?
Table 2
Advantages and limitations of the two major proteomics approaches.
| | 2D-DIGE | Shotgun Proteomics (MudPit) |
| Advantage | Moderate costs for necessary equipment (separation phase) Good protein separation | Industrialized work processes Almost all protein types analyzable |
| Limitation | Gel-based variability Hydrophobic (membrane) proteins difficult to measure | Difficult quantification of low abundance proteins in complex protein mixes High costs for equipment |
