This course
introduces to the basic biology of proteins and the new advanced science called
as proteomics which aims to look into the protein properties from a global
perspective, i.e., not undertaking one protein at a time, but an entire set of
proteins in the milieu. The course will cover in detail the two major aspects
of proteomics i.e., Gel-based proteomics and Mass spectrometry-based
proteomics. The gel-based module will cover different techniques like SDS-PAGE,
2-DE, 2D-DIGE etc. These techniques had a major contribution in transition from
protein chemistry to proteomics. Mass spectrometry, on the other hand, is an
advanced analytical technique for accurate mass measurement. In this module, we
will discuss the basics of mass spectrometry, sample preparations, liquid
chromatography, hybrid mass spectrometers and quantitative proteomics
techniques such as iTRAQ, SILAC and TMT using mass spectrometry. The course
will also provide the basic knowledge about sample preparation, mass
spectrometry workflow, different chromatography technologies and quantitative
proteomics.

About the Instructor :
Dr. Sanjeeva Srivastava is the Group Leader for the
Proteomics Laboratory at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay India
(IITB). He obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Alberta and post-doc from
the Harvard Medical School in the area of proteomics, stress physiology and has
specialized expertise in applications of data enabled sciences in global
health, developing country and resource limited settings.
Dr. Srivastava has considerable experience for teaching proteomics courses and conducting hands-on crash-courses on proteomics at IIT Bombay and many other institutes including proteomics workshop at Reliance Life Sciences, Mumbai, and Continuing Education Programme (CEP) on proteomics at IIT Bombay, and three proteomics courses in Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL), New York. Apart from the regular research work, Dr. Srivastava has been actively involved in the development of various proteomics e-Learning & Open-Learning curriculums and Virtual Lab initiatives at IIT Bombay generated with an intention to disseminate high-quality educational materials on proteomics at a global scale [Ray et al., PLoS Biol. 2012; Ray et al., J Proteomics. 2012; Srivastava et al., Nature 2013]. These Virtual Lab initiatives have been included as a part (Tutorial- IPTP 14) of the International Proteomics Tutorial Programme (supported by Human Proteome Organization (HUPO) and European Proteomics Association (EuPA)).
At IIT Bombay Dr. Srivastava has established an excellent infrastructure for quantitative and targeted proteomics and metabolomics at IIT Bombay, which includes different instrumentations and software for gel-based proteomics [Two Dimensional gel Electrophoresis (2-DE) and 2D- Differential Gel Electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) [Ettan IPGphore 3 isoelectric focusing unit (GE Healthcare), Ettan DALT six electrophoresis unit (GE Healthcare), LabScan software version 6.0 (GE Healthcare), Image Master,2D Platinum 7.0 software (GE Healthcare), ImageQuant software version 5.0 (GE Healthcare), Typhoon 9400 variable mode imager (GE Healthcare) and DeCyder 2D software, version 7.0 (GE Healthcare)], and MS-based proteomics and metabolomics platforms [MALDI TOF/TOF MS (4800 MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometer (AB Sciex, Framingham, MA), Autoflex Speed (Bruker Daltonics)), 3100 OFFGEL fractionator (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA), Agilent 6550 iFunnel Q-TOF LC MS/MS instrument (Agilent Technologies, USA), Accu TOF GCv (JMS-T100GCv) system from Jeol Asia equipped with Agilent 7690 GC, Spectrum Mill Protein Identification software (Agilent Technologies, USA), MASCOT version 2.1 (http://www.martixscience.com), Mass Profiler Professional (MPP) software package (version 2.2, Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA) and Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR): Biacore T200 system (GE Healthcare), Gene Pix Pro Microarray Scanner; Microarrayer printer]. Consequently, we have both expertise and infrastructure for conducting such bilateral training program at IIT Bombay.
