Abstract
The present teachings provide methods for the development of a mass spectrometric based assay for a protein in a sample using parent-daughter ion transition monitoring (PDITM). In various aspects, the present teachings provide methods for developing a mass spectrometric based assay for a protein in a sample without the use of a standard for the protein. In various embodiments, the sample comprises proteolytic fragments of a protein which is present in low abundance in the physiological fluid from which it is derived.
