New approaches towards integrated proteomic databases and depositories

Since the publication of the human genome, two key points have emerged. First, it is still not certain which regions of the genome code for proteins. Second, the number of discrete protein-coding genes is far fewer than the number of different proteins. Proteomics has the potential to address some of these postgenomic issues if the obstacles that we face can be overcome in our efforts to combine proteomic and genomic data. There are many challenges associated with high-throughput and high-output proteomic technologies. Consequently, for proteomics to continue at its current growth rate, new approaches must be developed to ease data management and data mining. Initiatives have been launched to develop standard data formats for exchanging mass spectrometry proteomic data, including the Proteomics Standards Initiative formed by the Human Proteome Organization. Databases such as SwissProt and Uniprot are publicly available repositories for protein sequences annotated for function, subcellular location and known potential post-translational modifications. The availability of bioinformatics solutions is crucial for proteomics technologies to fulfil their promise of adding further definition to the functional output of the human genome. The aim of the Oxford Genome Anatomy Project is to provide a framework for integrating molecular, cellular, phenotypic and clinical information with experimental genetic and proteomics data. This perspective also discusses models to make the Oxford Genome Anatomy Project accessible and beneficial for academic and commercial research and development.

Focus on plant proteomics.

Proteomics covers the systematic analysis of proteins expressed by a genome, from the identification of their primary amino-acid sequence to the determination of their relative amounts, their state of modification and association with other proteins or molecules of different types. Tremendous progress has been made in this field in the past few years, especially in plant biology, mostly due to major developments of mass spectrometry dedicated to protein analyses and advanced information technology. The aim of this special issue of Plant Physiology and Biochemistry devoted to Plant Proteomics is not to present a comprehensive coverage of this rapidly expanding field but to focus on the representation of some key aspects to illustrate the importance of proteomics in plant functional genomics.     

Development and application of proteomics technologies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Proteomics research focuses on the identification and quantification of "all" proteins present in cells, organisms or tissue. Proteomics is technically complicated because it encompasses the characterization and functional analysis of all proteins that are expressed by a genome. Moreover, because the expression levels of proteins strongly depend on complex regulatory systems, the proteome is highly dynamic. This review focuses on the two major proteomics methodologies, one based on 2D gel electrophoresis and the other based on liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. The recent developments of these methodologies and their application to quantitative proteomics are described. The model system Saccharomyces cerevisiae is considered to be the optimal vehicle for proteomics and we review studies investigating yeast adaptation to changes in (nutritional) environment.

Proteogenomic analysis of bacteria and archaea: a 46 organism case study

Experimental evidence is increasingly being used to reassess the quality and accuracy of genome annotation. Proteomics data used for this purpose, called proteogenomics, can alleviate many of the problematic areas of genome annotation, e.g. short protein validation and start site assignment. We performed a proteogenomic analysis of 46 genomes spanning eight bacterial and archaeal phyla across the tree of life. These diverse datasets facilitated the development of a robust approach for proteogenomics that is functional across genomes varying in %GC, gene content, proteomic sampling depth, phylogeny, and genome size. In addition to finding evidence for 682 novel proteins, 1336 new start sites, and numerous dubious genes, we discovered sites of post-translational maturation in the form of proteolytic cleavage of 1175 signal peptides. The number of novel proteins per genome is highly variable (median 7, mean 15, stdev 20). Moreover, comparison of novel genes with the current genes did not reveal any consistent abnormalities. Thus, we conclude that proteogenomics fulfills a yet to be understood deficiency in gene prediction. With the adoption of new sequencing technologies which have higher error rates than Sanger-based methods and the advances in proteomics, proteogenomics may become even more important in the future.

Proteomics for Biological Discovery * Edited by T.D. Veenstra and John R. Yates

An understanding of the roles and interactions of proteins withincells is vital to our understanding of biology. Proteomics hascome a long way, and covers many areas now, since the inventionof 2 dimensional gel electrophoresis in the 1970s, or the coiningof the term proteomics in the 1990s. As more people move intothis important area, there is a need for guides to aid thesemoves. Proteomics for Biological Discovery aims to serve assuch a guide. The format of this multi-author book is well laidout, with fifteen chapters in three main parts: I. Foundationsof Proteomics; II. Functional Proteomics; and III. Novel Approachesin Proteomics. The editors have selected a strong team of respectedexperts in the various proteomics niches to write the fifteenconstituent chapters. The chapters are, for the most part, self-contained,and there is no

Spruce proteome DB: a resource for conifer proteomics research

Proteomics research is hampered in many organisms due to a lack of an appropriate reference genome sequence that can be used in the interpretation of tandem mass spectrometry data for the identification of proteins. Public DNA sequence repositories have grown to considerable size and can, in most cases, serve to provide at least partial interpretation of a large-scale proteomics dataset. However, when species-specific sequences or sequences from a closely related species are available, a boutique sequence database can provide considerable increases in specificity, confidence, and completeness of protein identification. Here, we describe the development of a protein database from a large-scale expressed sequence tag and full-length complementary DNA sequencing project in the economically and ecologically important spruce (Picea) genus.     

Bioinformatics in proteomics

Several genome sequencing projects have recently been completed and the majority of human coding regions have been sequenced. In the next step many of the further studies will concentrate on proteins. Proteomics methods are essential for studying protein expression, activity, regulation and modifications. Bioinformatics is an integral part of proteomics research. The recent developments and applications in proteomics are discussed including mass spectrometry data analysis and interpretation, analysis and storage of the gel images to databases, gel comparison, and advanced methods to study e.g. protein co-expression, protein-protein interactions, as well as metabolic and cellular pathways. The significance of informatics in proteomics will gradually increase because of the advent of high-throughput methods relying on powerful data analysis.

Advances in quantitative proteomics using stable isotope tags

A great deal of current biological and clinical research is directed at the interpretation of the information contained in the human genome sequence in terms of the structure, function and control of biological systems and processes. Proteomics, the systematic analysis of proteins, is becoming a critical component in this endeavor because proteomic measurements are carried out directly on proteins – the catalysts and effectors of essentially all biological functions. To detect changes in protein profiles that might provide important diagnostic or functional insights, proteomic analyses necessarily have to be quantitative. This article summarizes recent technological advances in quantitative proteomics.     

Proteomics Based Identification of Cell Migration Related Proteins in HBV Expressing HepG2 Cells

Proteomics study was performed to investigate the specific protein expression profiles of HepG2 cells transfected with mutant HBV compared with wildtype HBV genome, aiming to identify the specific functions of SH3 binding domain (proline rich region) located in HBx. In addition to the cell movement and kinetics changes due to the expression of HBV genome we have observed previously, here we further targeted to explore the specific changes of cellular proteins and potential intracellular protein interactions, which might provide more information of the potential cellular mechanism of the differentiated cell movements. Specific changes of a number of proteins were shown in global protein profiling in HepG2 cells expressing wildtype HBV, including cell migration related proteins, and interestingly the changes were found recovered by SH3 binding domain mutated HBV. The distinctive expressions of proteins were validated by Western blot analysis.     

A proteomics strategy for the analysis of bacterial biodegradation pathways

Bacterial biodegradation (bioremediation) is the use of microorganisms to break down organic materials into simpler compounds; it plays a pivotal role in the clean-up of hazardous wastes in the environment. Following the completion of genome sequencing in bacteria capable of biodegradation, functional genomic studies have played a major role in obtaining information on bacterial biodegradation pathways. Novel proteomics technologies have recently been developed to make it possible to analyze global protein expression. Proteomics can also provide important information on the life cycle, regulation, and post-translational modification of proteins induced under specific conditions. Proteomics technologies have been applied to the comprehensive study of bacterial biodegradation. In this paper, we introduce the proteomics technologies applicable to bacterial biodegradation studies, review the results of the proteomics analysis of representative biodegrading bacteria, and discuss the potential use of proteomics technologies in future biodegradation studies.
