Previous studies suggest that the number of proteins containing covalently bound biotin is larger than previously thought. Here, we report the identity of some of these proteins. Using mass spectrometry, we discovered 108 novel biotinylation sites in the human embryonic kidney HEK293 cell proteome; members of the heat shock protein (HSP) superfamily were overrepresented among the novel biotinylated proteins. About half of the biotinylated proteins also displayed various degrees of methionine oxidation, which is known to play an important role in the defense against reactive oxygen species; for biotinylated HSPs, the percent of methionine sulfoxidation approached 100%. Protein structure analysis suggests that methionine sulfoxides localize in close physical proximity to the biotinylated lysines on the protein surface. Mass spectrometric analysis revealed that between one and five of the methionine residues in the C-terminal KEEKDPGMGAMGGMGGGMGGGMF motif are oxidized in HSP60. The likelihood of methionine sulfoxidation is higher if one of the adjacent lysine residues is biotinylated. Knockdown of HSP60 caused a 60% increase in the level of reactive oxygen species in fibroblasts cultured in biotin-sufficient medium. When HEK293 cells were transferred from biotin-sufficient medium to biotin-free medium, the level of reactive oxygen species increased by >9 times compared with baseline controls and a time-response relationship was evident. High levels of methionine sulfoxidation coincided with cell cycle arrest in the G0/G1 and S phases in biotin-depleted cells. We conclude that biotinylation of lysines synergizes with sulfoxidation of methionines in heat shock proteins such as HSP60 in the defense against reactive oxygen species.  相似文献

Even though glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins lack direct structural contact with the intracellular space, these ubiquitously expressed surface receptors activate signaling cascades and endocytosis when crosslinked by extracellular ligands. Such properties may be due to their association with membrane microdomains composed of glycosphingolipids, cholesterol and some signaling proteins. In this study, we hypothesize that GPI proteins may be required for crosslinking-mediated endocytosis of extracellular bioconjugates. To test this hypothesis, we first biotinylated the surface membranes of native K562 erythroleukemia cells versus K562 cells incapable of surface GPI protein expression. We then compared the entry of fluorescently labeled avidin or DNA condensed on polyethylenimine-avidin bioconjugates into the two biotinylated cell populations. Using fluorescence microscopy, nearly 100% efficiency of fluorescent avidin endocytosis was demonstrated in both cell types over a 24 h period. Surprisingly, plasmid DNA transfer was slightly more efficient among the biotinylated GPI-negative cells as measured by the expression of green fluorescence protein. Our findings that GPI proteins are not required for the endocytosis of avidin bioconjugates into biotinylated cells suggest that endocytosis associated with general membrane crosslinking may be due to overall reorganization of the membrane domains rather than GPI protein-specific interactions.  相似文献

Biotinylated proteins and peptides have been used as popular ligands for characterization of cell surface receptors by a variety of methods including flow cytometry. The number and the location of biotin moieties incorporated could alter the structural and physicochemical properties of ligands, although biotin is thought to be such a small molecule (244Da) that it is capable of being conjugated to most proteins without affecting their activity. Here, we demonstrate that the biotinylated HSP70 molecule via primary amines bound to epithelium-like HEK 293 cells in a saturable manner whereas the unlabeled counterparts of HSP70 other than mouse Hsp72 do not. This binding was not competed by either HSP70 or the biotin entity itself. Interestingly, the biotinylated HSP70 also elicited the production of CC-chemokine RANTES independent of CD40 signaling. This response occurred regardless of sequence diversity of HSP70 derived from different species, and neither the biotinylated ovalbumin nor the unlabeled HSP70 cross-linked with a biotinylated protein stimulated a significant level of RANTES production which was induced by biotinylated HSP70 itself. Our findings suggest that modification of HSP70 such as biotinylation may function as a biological alarm signal in the innate immune system.  相似文献

The in depth-mining of the proteome necessitates the comprehensive analysis of proteins in individual subcellular compartments to uncover interesting patterns of protein expression that include assessment of protein location, trafficking and of post-translational modifications that are location specific. One of the compartments of substantial interest from a diagnostic and therapeutic point of view is the plasma membrane which contains intrinsic membrane proteins and other proteins expressed on the cell surface. Technologies are currently available for the comprehensive profiling of the cell surface proteome that rely on protein tagging of intact cells. Studies are emerging that point to unexpected patterns of expression of specific proteins on the cell surface, with a common occurrence of proteins previously considered to occur predominantly in other compartments, notably the endoplasmic reticulum. The profiling of the cell surface and plasma membrane proteomes will likely provide novel insights and uncover disease related alterations.  相似文献

Monomeric forms of avidin and streptavidin [(strept)avidin] have many potential applications. However, generation of monomeric (strept)avidin in sufficient quantity is a major limiting factor. We report the successful intracellular production of an improved version of monomeric streptavidin (M4) in a soluble and functional state at a level of approximately 70 mg/L of an Escherichia coli shake flask culture. It could be affinity purified in one step using biotin agarose with 70% recovery. BIAcore biosensor analysis using biotinylated bovine serum albumin confirmed its desirable kinetic properties. Two biotinylated proteins with different degrees of biotinylation (5.5 and 1 biotin per protein) pre-mixed with cellular extracts from Bacillus subtilis were used to examine the use of M4-agarose in affinity purification of protein. Both biotinylated proteins could be purified in high purity with 75-80% recovery. With the mild elution and matrix regeneration conditions, the M4-agarose had been reused four times without any detectable loss of binding capability. The relatively high-level overproduction and easy purification of M4, excellent kinetic properties with biotinylated proteins and mild procedure for protein purification make vital advancements in cost-effective preparation of monomeric streptavidin affinity matrix with desirable properties for purification of biotinylated molecules.  相似文献

To expand the application of the streptavidin-biotin technology for reversible affinity purification of biotinylated proteins, a novel form of monomeric streptavidin was engineered and produced using Bacillus subtilis as the expression host. By changing as little as two amino acid residues (T90 and D128) to alanine, the resulting mutant streptavidin designated DM3 was produced 100% in the monomeric form as a soluble functional protein via secretion. It remained in the monomeric state in the presence or absence of biotin. Interaction of purified monomeric streptavidin with biotin was studied by surface plasmon resonance-based BIAcore biosensor. Its on-rate is comparable to that of monomeric avidin while its off-rate is seven times lower. The dissociation constant was determined to be 1.3 x 10(-8)M. These properties make it an attractive agent for affinity purification of biotinylated proteins. An affinity matrix with immobilized DM3 mutein was prepared and applied to purify biotinylated cytochrome c from a crude extract. Biotinylated cytochrome c could be purified to homogeneity in one step and was shown to retain full biological activity. Advantages of using DM3 mutein over other traditional methods in the purification of biotinylated proteins are discussed.  相似文献

Cultivated vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) were surface-labeled with CyDyes followed by biotinylation. After enrichment on avidin columns, proteins were separated on large format gradient gels by SDS-PAGE. A comparison between CyDye-tagged and non-tagged gel bands revealed a substantial increase of protein identifications from membrane, membrane-associated, and extracellular matrix proteins with a corresponding reduction in co-purified intracellular proteins. Notably the majority of identified proteins were involved in cellular adhesion processes. To demonstrate the quantitative potential of this platform, we performed a comparison between mature and embryonic stem cell-derived smooth muscle cells (esSMCs) and identified the membrane proteins E-cadherin, integrin alpha6, and CD98 (4F2) to be significantly up-regulated in esSMCs suggesting that SMCs derived from embryonic stem cells maintain characteristics of their embryonic stem cell origin. This was subsequently confirmed by RT-PCR: despite expressing a panel of smooth muscle markers (calponin, Sm22, and aortic smooth muscle actin), esSMCs remained positive for markers of stem cell pluripotency (Oct4, Nanog, and Rex1). In summary, we describe a novel strategy for the profiling of cell membrane proteins. The procedure combines DIGE technology with biotin/avidin labeling to discriminate membrane and membrane-associated proteins from intracellular contaminants by fluorescence tagging and permits semiquantitative differential expression analysis of membrane proteins.  相似文献

We present a novel column chromatography technique for recovery and purification of lipid vesicles, which can be extended to other macromolecular assemblies. This technique is based on reversible binding of biotinylated lipids to monomeric avidin. Unlike the very strong binding of biotin and biotin-functionalized molecules to streptavidin, the interaction between biotin-functionalized molecules and monomeric avidin can be disrupted effectively by ligand competition from free biotin. In this work, biotin-functionalized lipids (biotin-PEG-PE) were incorporated into synthetic lipid vesicles (DOPC), resulting in unilamellar biotinylated lipid vesicles. The vesicles were bound to immobilized monomeric avidin, washed extensively with buffer, and eluted with a buffer supplemented with free biotin. Increasing the biotinyl lipid molar ratio beyond 0.53% of all lipids did not increase the efficiency of vesicle recovery. A simple adsorption model suggests 1.1 x 10(13) active binding sites/mL of resin with an equilibrium binding constant of K = 1.0 x 10(8) M(-1). We also show that this method is very robust and reproducible and can accommodate vesicles of varying sizes with diverse contents. This method can be scaled up to larger columns and/or high throughput analysis, such as a 96-well plate format.  相似文献

Generating proteomic maps of membrane proteins, common targets for therapeutic interventions and disease diagnostics, has turned out to be a major challenge. Antibody-based microarrays are among the novel rapidly evolving proteomic technologies that may enable global proteome analysis to be performed. Here, we have designed the first generation of a scaleable human recombinant scFv antibody microarray technology platform for cell surface membrane proteomics as well as glycomics targeting intact cells. The results showed that rapid and multiplexed profiling of the cell surface proteome (and glycome) could be performed in a highly specific and sensitive manner and that differential expression patterns due to external stimuli could be monitored.  相似文献

Glucose-regulated protein (GRP78)/BiP, a major chaperone in the endoplasmic reticulum, is recently discovered to be preferably expressed on the surface of stressed cancer cells, where it regulates critical oncogenic signaling pathways and is emerging as a target for anti-cancer therapy while sparing normal organs. However, because GRP78 does not contain classical transmembrane domains, its mechanism of transport and its anchoring at the cell surface are poorly understood. Using a combination of biochemical, mutational, FACS, and single molecule super-resolution imaging approaches, we discovered that GRP78 majorly exists as a peripheral protein on plasma membrane via interaction with other cell surface proteins including glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins. Moreover, cell surface GRP78 expression requires its substrate binding activity but is independent of ATP binding or a membrane insertion motif conserved with HSP70. Unexpectedly, different cancer cell lines rely on different mechanisms for GRP78 cell surface translocation, implying that the process is cell context-dependent.  相似文献

It was reported that avidin and streptavidin induce lysis of prebiotinylated red blood cells via the alternative pathway of both homologous and heterologous complement. Both of these proteins have four biotin-binding sites, providing a polyvalent interaction with biotinylated components of the erythrocyte membrane. We have compared the effects of mono- and multipoint avidin attachment on the sensitivity of biotinylated erythrocytes to lysis by the complement system. In the presence of anti-avidin antibody, avidin-bearing biotinylated erythrocytes were rapidly lysed by heterologous serum. This lysis was independent from the mode of avidin attachment, implying that complement activation by the classical pathway triggered by interaction between C1 and avidin-bound antibody on the erythrocyte surface is independent from the avidin's ability of polyvalent (multipoint) binding with biotinylated membrane components. In the absence of anti-avidin antibody, biotinylated erythrocytes bearing polyvalently attached avidin were lysed by homologous complement better than cells bearing avidin, which possesses reduced ability for multipoint binding with biotinylated erythrocyte. Two independent approaches to reduce avidin's ability of multipoint binding were used: decrease in surface density of biotin on the erythrocyte membrane and blockage of biotin-binding sites of avidin. Both methods result in reduced lysis of avidin-bearing erythrocytes as compared with erythrocytes bearing an equal amount of polyvalent-bound avidin. Thus the activation of homologous complement via the alternative pathway depends on avidin's ability to 'cross-link' to the biotinylated components of the erythrocyte membrane.  相似文献

The development of a biotinylated bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) for use as a receptor probe is reported. The lysine13 of a GRP-27 was substituted by arginine and lysine was added to the amino terminus. Biotinylation of the N-terminal lysine was performed. The biotinylated peptide was purified by HPLC and characterized by mass spectral analysis. Binding studies with murine Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts, cells known to express bombesin/GRP receptors, yielded a dissociation curve for the biotinylated GRP-27 analogue (biotin-Lysyl[Asp12,Arg13]GRP-27) which was nearly identical to that of native GRP. Using studies of gastrin release from isolated canine G cells, equipotent functional activity of the biotinylated probe and unmodified GRP was demonstrated. Measurements of retained 125I-avidin confirmed that the biotin/avidin interaction could occur once the biotin-peptide complex was bound. Applicability of the probe was demonstrated with fluorescent microscopy using avidin-FITC on Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts. In conclusion, a novel biotinylated bombesin/GRP analogue has been developed which retains the functional characteristics of the native peptide and is a useful probe for receptor studies.  相似文献

Optimized conditions are needed to refold recombinant proteins from bacterial inclusion bodies into their biologically active conformations. In this study, we found two crucial requirements for efficient refolding of cationic tetrameric chicken avidin. The first step is to eliminate nucleic acid contaminants from the bacterial inclusion body. The electrostatic interactions between the remaining nucleic acids and proteins strongly enhanced protein aggregation during the refolding process. The cysteine specific reversible S-cationization procedure was successfully employed for large-scale preparation of nucleic acid free denatured protein without purification tag system. The second step is the intramolecular disulfide formation prior to refolding in dialysis removing denaturant. Disulfide intact monomeric avidin showed efficient formation of biologically active tetrameric conformation during the refolding process. Using this optimized refolding procedure, highly cationic avidin derivative designed as an intracellular delivery carrier of biotinylated protein was successfully prepared.  相似文献

This study reports on the analysis of the lipolytic proteome of cultured human fat cells. We used specific affinity tags to detect and identify the lipolytic and esterolytic enzymes in human subcutaneous (Sc) and visceral (Visc) adipocytes. For this purpose, differentiated fat cells were incubated with a fluorescent suicide inhibitor followed by protein separation using one- or two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. After detection by fluorescence laser scanning, the labeled proteins were tryptically digested and peptides were identified by mass spectrometry. In addition, a biotinylated probe was used for specific enzyme labeling with subsequent avidin affinity isolation of the tagged proteins. Finally, we determined the quantitative differences in protein expression levels between subcutaneous and visceral adipocytes using differential activity-based gel electrophoresis (DABGE). We found that the lipase/esterase patterns of both cell types are very similar, except for some proteins that were only found in Sc cells. Two novel enzyme candidates identified in this study were overexpressed and characterized using biologically relevant glycerolipid substrates in vitro. Both of them showed pronounced hydrolytic activities on hydrophobic acylglycerols and therefore may be considered lipases. The physiological functions of the novel lipolytic proteins in vivo are currently subject to investigation.  相似文献

We performed here MS-based cell surface proteome profiling of HCT-116 cells by two distinct methods based on biotin labeling and glycoprotein capturing. In total, 742 biotinylated and 219 glycosylated proteins were identified by the biotin labeling and glycoprotein capturing, of which 224 and 138 proteins known to be located on plasma membrane were included, respectively, according to ingenuity pathway analysis. Although 104 plasma membrane proteins were identified by both methods, the rest of 154 were identified only by one. Almost all the identified plasma membrane proteins possessed consensus N-glycosylation sites, and proteins having various numbers of glycosylation sites were identified by both methods. Thus, the discrepancies of the identified proteins obtained from those two methods might not be only due to the number of glycosylation sites, but also to the expression and/or glycosylation level of the cell surface proteins. We also identified 312 N-glycosylated proteins from xenograft samples by glycoprotein capturing of which 135 were known as plasma membrane proteins. Although a number of highly-expressed plasma membrane proteins were common between culture and xenograft cells, some proteins showed culture- or xenograft-specific expression, suggesting that those proteins might contribute to grow in different environment.  相似文献

In a previous study of sodium 4-phenylbutyrate (4-PBA)-responsive proteins in cystic fibrosis (CF) IB3-1 bronchial epithelial cells, we identified 85 differentially expressed high abundance proteins from whole cellular lysate (Singh, O. V., Vij, N., Mogayzel, P. J., Jr., Jozwik, C., Pollard, H. B., and Zeitlin, P. L. (2006) Pharmacoproteomics of 4-phenylbutyrate-treated IB3-1 cystic fibrosis bronchial epithelial cells. J. Proteome Res. 5, 562-571). In the present work we hypothesize that a subset of heat shock proteins that interact with cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in common during chemical rescue and genetic repair will identify therapeutic networks for targeted intervention. Immunocomplexes were generated from total cellular lysates, and three subcellular fractions (endoplasmic reticulum (ER), cytosol, and plasma membrane) with anti-CFTR polyclonal antibody from CF (IB3-1), chemically rescued CF (4-PBA-treated IB3-1), and genetically repaired CF (IB3-1/S9 daughter cells repaired by gene transfer with adeno-associated virus-(wild type) CFTR). CFTR-interacting proteins were analyzed on two-dimensional gels and identified by mass spectrometry. A set of 16 proteins known to act in ER-associated degradation were regulated in common and functionally connected to the protein processing, protein folding, and inflammatory response. Some of these proteins were modulated exclusively in ER, cytosol, or plasma membrane. A subset of 4-PBA-modulated ER-associated degradation chaperones (GRP94, HSP84, GRP78, GRP75, and GRP58) was observed to associate with the immature B form of CFTR in ER. HSP70 and HSC70 interacted with the C band (mature form) of CFTR at the cell surface. We conclude that chemically rescued CFTR associates with a specific set of HSP70 family proteins that mark therapeutic interactions and can be useful to correct both ion transport and inflammatory phenotypes in CF subjects.  相似文献

A proteomics approach was used to identify the proteins potentially implicated in the cellular response concomitant with elevated production levels of human growth hormone in a recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line following exposure to 0.5 mM butyrate and 80 microM zinc sulphate in the production media. This involved incorporation of two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis and protein identification by a combination of N-terminal sequencing, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation-time of flight mass spectrometry, amino acid analysis and cross species database matching. From these identifications a CHO 2-D reference map and annotated database have been established. Metabolic labelling and subsequent autoradiography showed the induction of a number of cellular proteins in response to the media additives butyrate and zinc sulphate. These were identified as GRP75, enolase and thioredoxin. The chaperone proteins GRP78, HSP90, GRP94 and HSP70 were not up-regulated under these conditions.  相似文献

The ultimate goal of proteomics is to understand complex biological systems. The first step toward this end is the discovery of protein differences by profiling a given proteome. One approach to proteome profiling is to fractionate it into intact proteins, with subsequent identification and quantitation. In this work, lysates of bovine skeletal muscle were prepared. Reproducible proteome profiles were generated by an automatic two-dimensional protein fractionation system. Proteins were separated by isoelectric point and then by hydrophobicity. The data collected from both separations were used to generate proteome profiles. A high protein content fraction with pl above 8.5 was digested with trypsin, and its main protein component was identified as lysozyme C by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry.  相似文献
