Utrecht University Using GeneBio's Proteomics Tools

NEW YORK (GenomeWeb News) — Geneva Bioinformatics said today that Utrecht University will use its proteomics software in its high-throughput data analysis development program.

Utrecht will use the Phenyx software at its Biomolecular Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics group with the Lys-N workflow, which is a proteomics analysis tool that is focused on post-translational modifications and de novo sequencing.

The Phenyx software is used to identify, quantify, and characterize proteins and peptides from mass spectrometry data.

Financial terms of the agreement were not released.
