Preface The aim of this new edition of Difference Gel Electrophoresis is to provide a comprehensive update of this key method of gel-based proteomics. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis is one of the most frequently used protein separation techniques in modern biochemistry and proteomics. Difference Gel Electrophoresis employs the direct labeling of proteomes with fluorescent dyes prior to large-scale gel electrophoretic separation enabling highthroughput comparative analyses. Labeling of two or more samples with different dyes followed by separation on the same gel system eliminates gel-to-gel variations, making this advanced technique a robust and highly suitable method for proteomic profiling surveys with diverse biological applications
