A prototypical proteomics pipe-line useful for clinical research. Depending on the application, different samples processed and fed into the proteomics pipeline yield different results. The pipeline's several steps are listed in the different panels: (1) proteolytic digest, (2) the separation and ionization of peptides, (3) their analysis by MS, (4) fragmentation of selected peptides and analysis of the resulting MS/MS spectra and, (5) (6) data-computer analysis, which includes identification and quantification of proteins from several detected peptides.
