2D gel electrophoresis enables resolution of intact proteins in complex mixtures and is thus useful for comparative proteomic analysis, particularly of posttranslationally modified proteoforms that might not be distinguished by shotgun proteomic analysis of peptides. 2D gel electrophoresis is a multistep procedure that can require sample-specific optimization. We present a comprehensive protocol that is effective for 2D electrophoretic analysis of proteins from Leishmania promastigotes and may also be employed for Leishmania amastigotes and for trypanosomes.
