Single-Cell Proteomics Analysis with Tecan Uno and SCREEN Workflow.

With advances in sample preparation, small-volume liquid dispensing technologies, high-resolution MS/MS instrumentation, and data acquisition methodologies, it has become increasingly possible to confidently investigate the heterogeneous proteome found within individual cells. In this chapter, we present an automated high-throughput sample preparation workflow based on the Tecan Uno instrument for quantitative single-cell mass spectrometry-based proteomics. Cells are analyzed by the Single-Cell Proteome Analysis platform (SCREEN), which was introduced earlier and provides deeper proteome coverage across single cells.
