Abstract

If there are indications for the involvement of a molecule or protein in the process of calcium signalling (e.g., from patch-clamp recordings as stated above), there are many techniques that can be used to identify an unknown player. This biochemical and molecular biology-based methodology is reviewed in other sources. Examples include high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), 2D-gel electrophoresis, mass spectrometry, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation in combination with time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MALDI-TOF) and expression analysis with DNA chips or next-generation sequencing.
