The aerobic, haloalkaliphilic archaeon Natronomonas pharaonis is able to survive in salt-saturated lakes of pH 11. According to genome analysis, the theoretical proteome consists of 2843 proteins. To reach further conclusions about its cellular physiology, the cytosolic protein inventory of Nmn. pharaonis has been analyzed using MS/MS on an ESI-Q-TOF mass spectrometer coupled on-line with a nanoLC system. The efficiency of this shotgun approach is illustrated by the identification of 929 proteins of which 886 are soluble proteins representing 41% of the cytosolic proteome. Cell lysis under denaturing conditions in water with subsequent separation by SDS-PAGE prior to nanoLC-MS/MS resulted in identification of 700 proteins. The same number (but a different subset) of proteins was identified upon cell lysis under native conditions followed by size fractionation (retaining protein complexes) prior to SDS-PAGE. Additional size fractionation reduced sample complexity and increased identification reliability. The set of identified proteins covers about 60% of the cytosolic proteins involved in metabolism and genetic information processing. Many of the identified proteins illustrate the high genetic variability among the halophilic archaea.  相似文献

In our initial attempt to analyze the human brain proteome, we applied multi-dimensional protein separation and identification techniques using a combination of sample fractionation, 1-D SDS-PAGE, and MS analysis. The complexity of human brain proteome requires multiple fractionation strategies to extend the range and total number of proteins identified. According to the method of Klose (Methods Mol. Biol. 1999, 112, 67), proteins of the temporal lobe of human brain were fractionated into (i) cytoplasmic and nucleoplasmic, (ii) membrane and other structural, and (iii) DNA-binding proteins. Each fraction was then separated by SDS-PAGE, and the resulting gel line was cut into approximately 50 bands. After trypsin digestion, the resulting peptides from each band were analyzed by RP-LC/ESI-MS/MS using an LTQ spectrometer. The SEQUEST search program, which searched against the IPI database, was used for peptide sequence identification, and peptide sequences were validated by reversed sequence database search and filtered by the Protein Hit Score. Ultimately, 1533 proteins could be detected from the human brain. We classified the identified proteins according to their distribution on cellular components. Among these proteins, 24% were membrane proteins. Our results show that the multiple separation strategy is effective for high-throughput characterization of proteins from complex proteomic mixtures.  相似文献

The recent development of powerful proteomic tools has enabled investigators to directly examine the population of proteins present in defined biological systems. We report here the first proteomic analysis of atrial secretory granules. Approximately 100 distinct protein components of the atrial secretory granule proteome were detected using subcellular fractionation and one-dimensional SDS-PAGE in conjunction with peptide mass fingerprinting by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Of this number, 61 proteins were clearly identified by high probability data matches and repeated observation. The majority of the proteome was found to be membrane-associated with the most prominent proteins being peptidylglycine alpha-amidating monooxygenase (PAM) and pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (pro-ANP). This proteomic analysis of the rat atrium secretory granule produced an assembly of proteins with a diverse array of reported functions. The identified proteins fall into seven functional categories: (1) granular transport, docking and fusion; (2) signal transduction; (3) calcium-binding/calcium-dependent; (4) cellular architecture/chaperoning; (5) peptide/protein processing; (6) hormone; (7) proton transport. The novel finding of several protein processing enzymes and signal transduction proteins offer new perspectives on how pro-ANP is stored and processed to ANP during release. Accordingly, defining the proteome of the atrial secretory granule provides a framework for the development of new hypotheses that address key mechanisms governing granule function and ANP secretion.  相似文献

The epimorphic regeneration of zebrafish caudal fin is rapid and complete. We have analyzed the biomechanism of zebrafish caudal fin regeneration at various time points based on differential proteomics approaches. The spectrum of proteome changes caused by regeneration were analyzed among controls (0 h) and 1, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h postamputation involving quantitative differential proteomics analysis based on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization and differential in-gel electrophoresis Orbitrap analysis. A total of 96 proteins were found differentially regulated between the control nonregenerating and regenerating tissues of different time points for having at least 1.5-fold changes. 90 proteins were identified as differentially regulated for regeneration based on differential in-gel electrophoresis analysis between the control and regenerating tissues. 35 proteins were characterized for its expression in all of the five regenerating time points against the control samples. The proteins identified and associated with regeneration were found to be directly allied with various molecular, biological, and cellular functions. Based on network pathway analysis, the identified proteome data set for regeneration was majorly associated in maintaining cellular structure and architecture. Also the proteins were found associated for the cytoskeleton remodeling pathway and cellular immune defense mechanism. The major proteins that were found differentially regulated during zebrafish caudal fin regeneration includes keratin and its 10 isoforms, cofilin 2, annexin a1, skeletal α1 actin, and structural proteins. Annexin A1 was found to be exclusively undergoing phosphorylation during regeneration. The obtained differential proteome and the direct association of the various proteins might lead to a new understanding of the regeneration mechanism.  相似文献

The most imperative organ, kidney has been widely studied in zebrafish for its simplified structures and development. Understanding the proteomic component of kidney might lead to a better insight for understanding the structural and functional complexity of kidney. In this study we have analyzed the proteome profile of the zebrafish kidney based on gel based proteome mapping techniques involving single dimension gel electrophoresis nanoflow liquid chromatography mass spectrophotometer, single dimension gel electrophoresis microflow ESI liquid chromatography mass spectrophotometer and two dimensional gel electrophoresis matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization assay mass spectrophotometer analysis. A total of 385 proteins were identified consensually from the analysis as zebrafish kidney specific protein which includes 313, 55, and 87 proteins identified based on 1-DE FTMS/ITMSMS, 1-DE ESI-LCMS/MS and 2-DE MALDI MS/MS approaches respectively. The identified kidney proteome dataset was found to be representatives of diverse pI, mass, localization, process and functions. The kidney proteome dataset was found to be significantly associated with various metabolic, catabolic, cytoskeleton remodeling and rectal disease pathways. The engendered kidney protein catalog will serve as a template for understanding kidney functions and biomarker identification related to different kidney disorders.  相似文献

The proteome of rumen epithelial tissue was analysed by SDS-PAGE coupled with LC–MS/MS. 813 non-redundant proteins were identified of which 7.4 % featured membrane-spanning domains and 15.4 % harboured a signal peptide. According to the gene ontology annotation, the most abundant proteins exhibited binding activities related to their molecular functions, were proteins of cellular components or belonged to various metabolic processes. A predominant group of canonical pathways in the rumen epithelial tissue was identified using the IPA software. The GeLC–MS/MS approach was used to characterise the entire protein expression repertoire in rumen tissue, providing a more detailed understanding of the important biological processes in the rumen.  相似文献

The kidney glomerulus plays a pivotal role in ultrafiltration of plasma into urine and also is the locus of kidney disease progressing to chronic renal failure. We have focused proteomic analysis on the glomerulus that is most proximal to the disease locus. In the present study, we aimed to provide a confident, in-depth profiling of the glomerulus proteome. The glomeruli were highly purified from the kidney cortex from a male, 68-year-old patient who underwent nephroureterectomy due to ureter carcinoma. The patient was normal in clinical examinations including serum creatinine and urea levels and liver function, and did not receive any chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The cortical tissue was histologically normal, and no significant deposition of immunoglobulins and complement C3 was observed. We employed a novel strategy of protein separation using 1D (SDS-PAGE) and 2D (solution-phase IEF in combination with SDS-PAGE) prefractionation prior to the shotgun analysis with LC-MS/MS. The protein prefractionation produced 90 fractions, and eventually provided a confident set of identified proteins consisting of 6686 unique proteins (3679 proteins with two or more peptide matches and 3007 proteins with one peptide match), representing 2966 distinct genes. All the identified proteins were annotated and classified in terms of molecular function and biological process, compiled into 1D and 2D protein arrays, consisting of 15 and 75 sections, corresponding to the protein fractions which were defined by MW and pI range, and deposited on a Web-based database (http://www.hkupp.org). The most remarkable feature of the glomerulus proteome was a high incidence of identification of cytoskeleton-related proteins, presumably reflecting the well-developed, cytoskeletal organization of glomerular cells related to their physiological functions.  相似文献

Mycobacterial plasma membrane proteins play essential roles in many cellular processes, yet their comprehensive proteomic profiling remains challenging. This is mainly due to obstacles related to their extraction and solubilization. To tackle this problem, we have developed a novel procedure to selectively enrich mycobacterial plasma membrane proteins based on alkaline sodium carbonate washing of crude membranes followed by Triton X-114 phase partitioning. The present study assesses the efficiency of this method by proteome analysis of plasma membrane proteins from Mycobacterium bovis BCG. Extracted proteins were separated in parallel by 1-D SDS-PAGE and 2-DE and then analyzed by LC-MS/MS and MALDI-MS/MS. Our study revealed 125 proteins, of which 54 contained 1-14 predicted transmembrane domains (TMD) including nine novel proteins. The 1-D SDS-PAGE-based proteome analysis identified 81 proteins, of which 49 (60.5%) harbored TMD. This approach also revealed many hydrophobic membrane-associated/periplasmic proteins lacking TMD, but only few soluble proteins. The identified proteins were characterized with regard to biological functions and physicochemical properties providing further evidence for the high efficiency of the prefractionation method described herein.  相似文献

We performed experiments to determine how environmentally relevant ultraviolet radiation (UVR) affects protein expression during early development in the sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus. To model the protein-mediated cell cycle response to UV-irradiation, six batches of embryos were exposed to UVR, monitored for both delays in the first mitotic division and changes in the proteome at two specific developmental time points. Embryos were exposed to or protected from artificial UVR (11.5 W/m2) for 25 or 60 min. These levels of UVR are within the range we have measured in coastal waters between 0.5 and 2 m. Embryos treated with UVR for 60 min cleaved an average of 23.2 min (± 1.92 s.e.m.) after UV-protected embryos. Differential protein spot migration between UV-protected and UV-treated embryos was examined at 30 and 90 min post-fertilization using two-dimensional SDS-PAGE (2D GE). A total of 1306 protein spots were detected in all gels, including differences in 171 protein spots (13% of the detected proteome) in UV-treated embryos at 30 min post-fertilization and 187 spots (14%) at 90 min post-fertilization (2-way ANOVA, P = 0.03, n = 6). The majority of the proteins affected by UVR were subsequently identified using matrix assisted laser desorption ionization tandem time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-TOF MS). Our results indicate UVR affects proteins from multiple cellular pathways and indicate that the mechanisms involved in UV-stress and UV-induced developmental delay in sea urchin embryos are integrated among multiple pathways for cellular stress, protein turnover and translation, signal transduction, cytoskeletal dynamics, and general metabolism.  相似文献

ObjectivesSubcellular fractionation of whole cell lysates offers a means of simplifying protein mixtures, potentially permitting greater depth of proteomic analysis. Here we compare proteins identified from pancreatic duct cells (PaDC) following organelle enrichment to those identified from PaDC whole cell lysates to determine if the additional procedures of subcellular fractionation increase proteome coverage.MethodsWe used differential centrifugation to enrich for nuclear, mitochondrial, membrane, and cytosolic proteins. We then compared – via mass spectrometry-based analysis – the number of proteins identified from these four fractions with four biological replicates of PaDC whole cell lysates.ResultsWe identified similar numbers of proteins among all samples investigated. In total, 1658 non-redundant proteins were identified in the replicate samples, while 2196 were identified in the subcellular fractionation samples, corresponding to a 30% increase. Additionally, we noted that each organelle fraction was in fact enriched with proteins specific to the targeted organelle.ConclusionsSubcellular fractionation of PaDC resulted in greater proteome coverage compared to PaDC whole cell lysate analysis. Although more labor intensive and time consuming, subcellular fractionation provides greater proteome coverage, and enriches for compartmentalized sub-populations of proteins. Application of this subcellular fractionation strategy allows for a greater depth of proteomic analysis and thus a better understanding of the cellular mechanisms of pancreatic disease.  相似文献

We report a global proteomic approach for analyzing brain tissue and for the first time a comprehensive characterization of the whole mouse brain proteome. Preparation of the whole brain sample incorporated a highly efficient cysteinyl-peptide enrichment (CPE) technique to complement a global enzymatic digestion method. Both the global and the cysteinyl-enriched peptide samples were analyzed by SCX fractionation coupled with reversed phase LC-MS/MS analysis. A total of 48,328 different peptides were confidently identified (>98% confidence level), covering 7792 nonredundant proteins ( approximately 34% of the predicted mouse proteome). A total of 1564 and 1859 proteins were identified exclusively from the cysteinyl-peptide and the global peptide samples, respectively, corresponding to 25% and 31% improvements in proteome coverage compared to analysis of only the global peptide or cysteinyl-peptide samples. The identified proteins provide a broad representation of the mouse proteome with little bias evident due to protein pI, molecular weight, and/or cellular localization. Approximately 26% of the identified proteins with gene ontology (GO) annotations were membrane proteins, with 1447 proteins predicted to have transmembrane domains, and many of the membrane proteins were found to be involved in transport and cell signaling. The MS/MS spectrum count information for the identified proteins was used to provide a measure of relative protein abundances. The mouse brain peptide/protein database generated from this study represents the most comprehensive proteome coverage for the mammalian brain to date, and the basis for future quantitative brain proteomic studies using mouse models. The proteomic approach presented here may have broad applications for rapid proteomic analyses of various mouse models of human brain diseases.  相似文献

The surface proteome (surfaceome) of the marine planctomycete Rhodopirellula baltica SH1(T) was studied using a biotinylation and a proteinase K approach combined with SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry. 52 of the proteins identified in both approaches could be assigned to the group of potential surface proteins. Among them are some high molecular weight proteins, potentially involved in cell-cell attachment, that contain domains shown before to be typical for surface proteins like cadherin/dockerin domains, a bacterial adhesion domain or the fasciclin domain. The identification of proteins with enzymatic functions in the R. baltica surfaceome provides further clues for the suggestion that some degradative enzymes may be anchored onto the cell surface. YTV proteins, which have been earlier supposed to be components of the proteinaceous cell wall of R. baltica, were detected in the surface proteome. Additionally, 8 proteins with a novel protein structure combining a conserved type IV pilin/N-methylation domain and a planctomycete-typical DUF1559 domain were identified.  相似文献

Zebrafish is a powerful model to analyze vertebrate embryogenesis and organ development. Although a number of genes have been identified to specify embryonic development processes, only a few large-scale proteomic analyses have been reported in regard to these events to date. Here the total proteins of a single embryo were analyzed by urea-, sodium deoxycholate (SDC)-, and performic acid (PA)-assisted trypsin digestion strategies coupled to capillary liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (CapLC-MS/MS) identification. In total, 509 and 210 proteins were detected from the embryos at 72 and 120 hours postfertilization (hpf), respectively, with a false identification rate of less than 1%. Approximately 95% of those proteins could be observed by combining the urea- and SDC-assisted digestion strategies, suggesting that these two methods are more effective than the PA-assisted method. Compared with 0.5% SDC, 1% SDC was more effective to identify proteins in zebrafish embryos. In addition, removal of the predominant yolk proteins could significantly improve protein identification efficiency. Our study represents the first overview of the protein expression profile of a single zebrafish embryo at 72 or 120 hpf. More important, this single individual proteome methodology could be applied to multiple development stages of wide-type or mutant embryos, providing a simple and powerful way to further our understanding of embryonic development.  相似文献

Growth factors and extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins are involved in wound healing. Human dermal fibroblasts secrete wound-healing mediators in culture medium known as dermal fibroblast conditioned medium (DFCM). However, the composition and concentration of the secreted proteins differ with culture conditions and environmental factors. We cultured human skin fibroblasts in vitro using serum-free keratinocyte-specific media (EpiLife? Medium [KM1] and defined keratinocyte serum-free medium [KM2]) and serum-free fibroblast-specific medium (FM) to obtain DFCM-KM1, DFCM-KM2 and DFCM-FM, respectively. We identified and compared their proteomic profiles using bicinchoninic acid assay (BCA), 1-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (1D SDS-PAGE), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/TOF MS/MS) and liquid chromatography MS (LC-MS/MS). DFCM-KM1 and DFCM-KM2 had higher protein concentrations than DFCM-FM but not statistically significant. MALDI-TOF/TOF MS identified the presence of fibronectin, serotransferrin, serpin and serum albumin. LC-MS/MS and bioinformatics analysis identified 59, 46 and 58 secreted proteins in DFCM-KM1, DFCM-KM2 and DFCM-FM, respectively. The most significant biological processes identified in gene ontology were cellular process, metabolic process, growth and biological regulation. STRING® analysis showed that most secretory proteins in the DFCMs were associated with biological processes (e.g. wound healing and ECM organisation), molecular function (e.g. ECM binding) and cellular component (e.g. extracellular space). ELISA confirmed the presence of fibronectin and collagen in the DFCMs. In conclusion, DFCM secretory proteins are involved in cell adhesion, attachment, proliferation and migration, which were demonstrated to have potential wound-healing effects by in vitro and in vivo studies.  相似文献

In this study, we performed the first high‐throughput proteomic analysis of developing rachis (cob) from maize genotype Mp313E. Using two proteomic approaches, 2‐DE and 2‐D LC, we identified 967 proteins. A 2‐D proteome reference map was established. Functional classification of identified proteins revealed that proteins involved in various cellular metabolisms, response to stimulus and transport, were the most abundant.  相似文献

In the developing embryo, as in many other biological processes, complex signaling pathways are under tight control of reversible phosphorylation, guiding cell proliferation, differentiation, and growth. Therefore the large-scale identification of signaling proteins and their post-translational modifications is crucial to understand the proteome biology of the developing zebrafish embryo. Here, we used an automated, robust, and sensitive online TiO 2-based LC-MS/MS setup to enrich for phosphorylated peptides from 1 day old zebrafish embryos. We identified, with high confidence, 1067 endogenous phosphorylation sites in a sample taken from 60 embryos (approximately 180 microg), 321 from 10 embryos, and 47 phosphorylation sites from a single embryo, illustrating the sensitivity of the method. This data set, representing by far the largest for zebrafish, was further exploited by searching for serine/threonine or tyrosine kinase motifs using Scansite. For one-third of the identified phosphopeptides a potential kinase motif could be predicted, where it appeared that Cdk5 kinase, p38MAPK, PKA, and Casein Kinase 2 substrates were the most predominant motifs present, underpinning the importance of these kinases in signaling pathways in embryonic development. The phosphopeptide data set was further interrogated using alignments with phosphopeptides identified in recent large-scale phosphoproteomics screens in human and mouse samples. These alignments revealed conservation of phosphorylation sites in several proteins suggesting preserved function in embryonic development.  相似文献

Saliva is easily obtainable from a large number of animals in a noninvasive manner and contains a wide diversity of compounds including hormones, metabolites, and proteins that may be a good source of biomarkers of health and disease. Here we have used a combination of multidimensional prefractionation, targeted, and glycocapture methodologies to profile the bovine salivary proteome. The nontargeted approach used four different separation methodologies consisting of SDS-PAGE, Off-gel fractionation, RP-HPLC, and SCX-HPLC. In the targeted approach, we've employed a hypothesis-based methodology by only selecting extracellular proteins from in silico data. Finally, the hydrazide capture methodology not only enabled us to identify formerly N-linked glycoproteins but it also provided a selective enrichment process for the identification of low abundance proteins. Together, the three different approaches identified 402 salivary proteins and 45 N-linked glycoproteins. A large number of these proteins have previously been uncharacterized in bovine saliva. To date, this is the largest global survey of the bovine salivary proteome and expands the potential of the diagnostic utility of this fluid to guide development of experiments seeking biomarkers for health traits (i.e., disease resistance) as well as feed conversion efficiency and productivity traits in dairy and beef cattle.  相似文献

Profiling of cellular and subcellular proteomes by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (MS) after fractionation by SDS-PAGE is referred to as GeLC (gel electrophoresis liquid chromatography)-MS. The GeLC approach decreases complexity within individual MS analyses by size fractionation with SDS-PAGE. SDS-PAGE is considered an excellent fractionation technique for intact proteins because of good resolution for proteins of all sizes, isoelectric points, and hydrophobicities. Additional information derived from the mobility of the intact proteins is available after an SDS-PAGE fractionation, but that information is usually not incorporated into the proteomic analysis. Any chemical or proteolytic modification of a protein that changes the mobility of that protein in the gel can be detected. The ability of SDS-PAGE to resolve proteins with chemical modifications has not been widely utilized within profiling experiments. In this work, we examined the ability of the GeLC-MS approach to help identify proteins that were modified after a small hairpin RNA-dependent knockdown in an experiment using stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture-based quantitation.  相似文献

Interaction Proteomics   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The term proteome is traditionally associated with the identification of a large number of proteins within complex mixtures originating from a given organelle, cell or even organism. Current proteome investigations are basically focused on two major areas, expression proteomics and functional proteomics. Both approaches rely on the fractionation of protein mixtures essentially by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-gel) and the identification of individual protein bands by mass spectrometric techniques (2D-MS). Functional proteomics approaches are basically addressing two main targets, the elucidation of the biological function of unknown proteins and the definition of cellular mechanisms at the molecular level. In the cell many processes are governed not only by the relative abundance of proteins but also by rapid and transient regulation of activity, association and localization of proteins and protein complexes. The association of an unknown protein with partners belonging to a specific protein complex involved in a particular process would then be strongly suggestive of its biological function. The identification of interacting proteins in stable complexes in a cellular system is essentially achieved by affinity-based procedures. Different strategies relying on this simple concept have been developed and a brief overview of the main approaches presently used in functional proteomics studies is described.  相似文献
