About KINAXO’s technology platform
KINAXO employs a combination of state-of-the-art quantitative mass spectrometry and proprietary software applications to comprehensively analyze proteome-wide posttranslational modification patterns in vivo. With this approach, changes in protein modifications such as protein phosphorylation, ubiquitination, or actetylation can be monitored in response to drug treatment with highest accuracy in living cells, animal models and patient samples. KINAXO’s services thus provide a global and unbiased picture of a drug’s mode of action and facilitate identification of pharmacodynamic and drug response biomarkers. KINAXO uses Thermo Fisher LTQ Orbitrap Velos mass spectrometry instruments and MaxQuant software developed by its collaborators at the Max-Planck-Institute for Biochemistry in Martinsried.
