Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mass spectrometry is a widely used technique to identify proteins by analyzing their mass and structure. This method is commonly used in proteomics to identify the exact identity of a protein spot eluted from a 2D gel analysis. Sanger sequencing and computer analysis are more applicable for nucleic acid analysis rather than protein analysis and gas chromatography is not typically used for protein identification.
