A
Protein microarrays
B
ChIP
C
Tandem Mass Spectrometry
D
Reverse genetics
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the goal: The problem asks for the best method to identify an amino acid sequence of a protein.
Review the options: Protein microarrays, ChIP, Tandem Mass Spectrometry, and Reverse genetics.
Protein microarrays: These are used to study protein interactions and functions, not directly for sequencing.
ChIP (Chromatin Immunoprecipitation): This technique is used to study protein-DNA interactions, not for sequencing proteins.
Tandem Mass Spectrometry: This method is specifically designed to determine the amino acid sequence of proteins by analyzing the mass-to-charge ratio of peptide fragments.
