p53-induced apoptosis plays a pivotal role in the suppression of tumorigenesis, and mutations in p53 have been found in more than 50% of human tumors. By comparing the proteome of a human colorectal cancer cell transfected with inducible p53 (DLD-1.p53) with that of the control DLD-1 cell line using amino acid-coded mass tagging (AACT)-assisted mass spectrometry, we have broadly identified proteins that are upregulated at the execution stage of the p53-mediated apoptosis. In cell culturing, the deuterium-labeled (heavy) amino acids were incorporated into the proteome of the induced DLD-1.p53 cells, whereas the DLD-1.vector cells were grown in the unlabeled medium. In high-throughput LC-ESI-MS/MS analyses, the AACT-containing peptides were paired with their unlabeled counterparts, and their relative spectral intensities, reflecting the differential protein expression, were quantified. In addition, our novel AACT-MS method utilized a number of different heavy amino acids as internal markers that significantly increased the peptide sequence coverage for both quantitation and identification purposes. As a result, we were able to identify differentially regulated protein isozymes that would be difficult to distinguish by ICAT-MS methods and to obtain a large dataset of the proteins with altered expression in the late stage of p53-induced apoptosis. The regulated proteins we identified are associated with several distinct functional categories: cell cycle arrest and p53 binding, protein chaperoning, plasma membrane dynamics, stress response, antioxidant enzymes, and anaerobic glycolysis. This result suggests that the p53-induced apoptosis involves the systematic activation of multiple pathways that are glycolysis-relevant, energy-dependent, oxidative stress-mediated, and possibly mediated through interorganelle crosstalks. 相似文献

Cadmium (Cd(2+)) is one of well-known toxic heavy metal ions. To gain a global understanding how Cd(2+) affects cells at the molecular level, we systematically studied the cellular response of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe to Cd(2+) using our integrated proteomic strategy of amino acid-coded mass tagging (AACT) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Our proteome-wide investigation unequivocally identified 1133 S. pombe proteins. Of which, the AACT-based quantitative analysis revealed 106 up-regulated and 55 down-regulated proteins on the Cd(2+) exposure. The most prevalent functional class in the up-regulated proteins, approximately 28% of our profile, was the proteins involved in protein biosynthesis, showing a time-dependent biphasic expression pattern characteristic with rapid initial induction and later repression. Most significantly, 27 proteins functionally classified as cell rescue and defense were up-regulated for oxygen and radical detoxification, heat shock response, and other stress response. Furthermore, the large precursor sequence coverage of our AACT approach allowed us to unequivocally identify and quantitate different isozymes for glutathione S-transferase, which have close similarity in their amino acid sequence. Our quantitative dataset also showed that 80% of the up-regulated proteins found in the S. pombe response were different from those in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae response. The function of some of the key identifications was validated through biochemical assays. It is very interesting that the induction of cysteine synthase expression was not observed in our study, although it has been proven as a critical enzyme to supply free cysteines for the enhancing synthesis of Cd(2+)-sequestering molecules such as glutathione and phytochelatins in plants and some yeasts. Our quantitative proteomic result instead suggested that, as an alternative mechanism for the detoxification of Cd(2+), S. pombe produced significantly higher level of inorganic sulfide to immobilize cellular Cd(2+) as a form of CdS nanocrystallites capped with glutathione and/or phytochelatins. 相似文献

Laser capture microdissection (LCM) is a powerful tool that enables the isolation of specific cell types from tissue sections, overcoming the problem of tissue heterogeneity and contamination. This study combined the LCM with isotope-coded affinity tag (ICAT) technology and two-dimensional liquid chromatography to investigate the qualitative and quantitative proteomes of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The effects of three different histochemical stains on tissue sections have been compared, and toluidine blue stain was proved as the most suitable stain for LCM followed by proteomic analysis. The solubilized proteins from microdissected HCC and non-HCC hepatocytes were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed with two-dimensional liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (2D-LC-MS/MS) alone or coupled with cleavable ICAT labeling technology. A total of 644 proteins were qualitative identified, and 261 proteins were unambiguously quantitated. These results show that the clinical proteomic method using LCM coupled with ICAT and 2D-LC-MS/MS can carry out not only large-scale but also accurate qualitative and quantitative analysis. 相似文献

Because of the intrinsic physical properties of single- or double-charged ions, MALDI-based CID on these peptide precursor ions tends to be incomplete, resulting in a large number of MS/MS spectra unassigned or ambiguously identified. Consequently, the TOF/TOF high throughput capability may not be fully explored and utilized. Here, we describe a novel method for de novo sequence assignment of those MALDI TOF/TOF MS/MS spectra with incomplete or weak fragment ion series. In this approach, the deuterium-labeled lysine and leucine precursors were used in parallel to mass-tag the proteome of a metastatic human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell line during in vivo cell culturing. These stable isotope precursor markers not only position at terminal but at internal MS/MS fragment ions with the characteristic isotope pattern induced by multiple mass tagging in parallel. This enhanced signal specificity evidently resolved ambiguities in those sparse poor-quality TOF/TOF spectra by providing critical sequential links among MS/MS fragment ions. Our data-dependent approach was able to reduce many false-positives in current genome sequence-based peptide sequencing. With developing new algorithms accordingly, our approach is amenable for automation that will lead to more comprehensive and reliable identification for proteomes. 相似文献

As research, development, and manufacturing of biosimilar protein therapeutics proliferates, there is great interest in the continued development of a portfolio of complementary analytical methods that can be used to efficiently and effectively characterize biosimilar candidate materials relative to the respective reference (i.e., originator) molecule. Liquid phase separation techniques such as liquid chromatography and capillary electrophoresis are powerful tools that can provide both qualitative and quantitative information about similarities and differences between reference and biosimilar materials, especially when coupled with mass spectrometry. However, the inherent complexity of these protein materials challenges even the most modern one-dimensional (1D) separation methods. Two-dimensional (2D) separations present a number of potential advantages over 1D methods, including increased peak capacity, 2D peak patterns that can facilitate unknown identification, and improvement in the compatibility of some separation methods with mass spectrometry. In this study, we demonstrate the use of comprehensive 2D-LC separations involving cation-exchange (CEX) and reversed-phase (RP) separations in the first and second dimensions to compare 3 reference/biosimilar pairs of monoclonal antibodies (cetuximab, trastuzumab and infliximab) that cover a range of similarity/disimilarity in a middle-up approach. The second dimension RP separations are coupled to time-of-flight mass spectrometry, which enables direct identification of features in the chromatograms obtained from mAbs digested with the IdeS enzyme, or digestion with IdeS followed by reduction with dithiothreitol. As many as 23 chemically unique mAb fragments were detected in a single sample. Our results demonstrate that these rich datasets enable facile assesment of the degree of similarity between reference and biosimilar materials. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of the cryopreservation process on the protein profile of ram sperm using two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) coupled with mass spectroscopy. Semen was collected from five rams and cryopreserved in a Tris-based extender supplemented with glycerol and egg yolk as the main cryoprotectants. The fresh and post-thaw sperm total proteins were extracted and purified, followed by the 2-DE. The differential proteins in the stained gel were determined by mass spectrometry. The results indicated that there were 39 differential proteins between fresh sperm and frozen-thawed sperm. Among these proteins, the abundance of 28 proteins in fresh sperm was higher than those in post-thaw sperm (P < 0.05). However, 11 proteins in post-thaw sperm were up-regulated instead. The gene ontology (GO) analysis showed that most of differential proteins were implicated in cellular process, metabolism and regulation of the biological process. The networks of protein-protein interaction indicated a strong interaction among these differential proteins, which may be involved in sperm metabolism, acrosomal function, sperm motility, and reducing ROS level. In conclusion, the cryopreservation process modifies the proteome of ram sperm, which may be directly associated with ram sperm cryodamage, consequently influencing their fertility. Additionally, these differential proteins can be used as biomarkers for evaluation of frozen ram semen quality. 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

Strategies employing non-gel based methods for quantitative proteomic profiling such as isotope coded affinity tags coupled with mass spectrometry (ICAT-MS) are gaining attention as alternatives to two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). We have conducted a large-scale investigation to determine the degree of reproducibility and depth of proteome coverage of a typical ICAT-MS experiment by measuring protein changes in Escherichia coli treated with triclosan, an inhibitor of fatty acid biosynthesis. The entire ICAT-MS experiment was conducted on four independent occasions where more than 24 000 peptides were quantitated using an ion-trap mass spectrometer. Our results demonstrated that quantitatively, the technique provided good reproducibility (median coefficient of variation of ratios was 18.6%), and on average identified more than 450 unique proteins per experiment. However, the method was strongly biased to detect acidic proteins (pI < 7), under-represented small proteins (<10 kDa) and failed to show clear superiority over 2-DE methods in monitoring hydrophobic proteins from cell lysates. 相似文献

A two-dimensional liquid-phase separation scheme coupled with mass spectrometry (MS) is presented for proteomic analysis of cell lysates from normal and malignant breast epithelial cell lines. Liquid-phase separations consist of isoelectric focusing as the first dimension and nonporous silica reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (NPS-RP-HPLC) as the second dimension. Protein quantitation and mass measurement are performed using electrospray ionization-time of flight MS (ESI-TOF MS). Proteins are identified by peptide mass fingerprinting using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight MS (MALDI-TOF MS) and MALDI-quadrupole time of flight (QTOF)-tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). Two pH regions with 50-60 unique proteins in each pH range were chosen for analysis. Mass maps were created that allowed visualization of protein quantitation differences between normal and malignant breast epithelial cells. Of the approximately 110 unique proteins observed from mass mapping experiments over the limited pH range, 40 (36%) were positively identified by peptide mass fingerprinting and assigned to bands in the mass maps. Of these 40 proteins, 22 were more highly expressed in one or more of the malignant cell lines. These proteins represent potential breast cancer biomarkers that could aid in diagnosis, therapy, or drug development. 相似文献

Direct LC-MS/MS was used to examine the proteins extracted from exponential or stationary phase Desulfovibrio vulgaris cells that had been grown on a minimal medium containing either lactate or formate as the primary carbon source. Across all four growth conditions, 976 gene products were identified with high confidence, which is equal to approximately 28% of all predicted proteins in the D. vulgaris genome. Bioinformatic analysis showed that the proteins identified were distributed among almost all functional classes, with the energy metabolism category containing the greatest number of identified proteins. At least 154 ORFs originally annotated as hypothetical proteins were found to encode the expressed proteins, which provided verification for the authenticity of these hypothetical proteins. Proteomic analysis showed that proteins potentially involved in ATP biosynthesis using the proton gradient across membrane, such as ATPase, alcohol dehydrogenases, heterodisulfide reductases, and [NiFe] hydrogenase (HynAB-1) of the hydrogen cycling were highly expressed in all four growth conditions, suggesting they may be the primary pathways for ATP synthesis in D. vulgaris. Most of the enzymes involved in substrate-level phosphorylation were also detected in all tested conditions. However, no enzyme involved in CO cycling or formate cycling was detected, suggesting that they are not the primary ATP-biosynthesis pathways under the tested conditions. This study provides the first proteomic overview of the cellular metabolism of D. vulgaris.The complete list of proteins identified in this study and their abundances (peptide hits) is provided in Supplementary Table 1. 相似文献

Stable isotope standards and capture by antipeptide antibodies (SISCAPA) couples affinity enrichment of peptides with stable isotope dilution and detection by multiple reaction monitoring mass spectrometry to provide quantitative measurement of peptides as surrogates for their respective proteins. In this report, we describe a feasibility study to determine the success rate for production of suitable antibodies for SISCAPA assays in order to inform strategies for large-scale assay development. A workflow was designed that included a multiplex immunization strategy in which up to five proteotypic peptides from a single protein target were used to immunize individual rabbits. A total of 403 proteotypic tryptic peptides representing 89 protein targets were used as immunogens. Antipeptide antibody titers were measured by ELISA and 220 antipeptide antibodies representing 89 proteins were chosen for affinity purification. These antibodies were characterized with respect to their performance in SISCAPA-multiple reaction monitoring assays using trypsin-digested human plasma matrix. More than half of the assays generated were capable of detecting the target peptide at concentrations of less than 0.5 fmol/μl in human plasma, corresponding to protein concentrations of less than 100 ng/ml. The strategy of multiplexing five peptide immunogens was successful in generating a working assay for 100% of the targeted proteins in this evaluation study. These results indicate it is feasible for a single laboratory to develop hundreds of assays per year and allow planning for cost-effective generation of SISCAPA assays. 相似文献

A method is described for on-line high-speed extraction of microsomal samples and analysis by capillary liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) for the determination of metabolic stability in connection with the development of positron emission tomography (PET) tracers. The method allowed direct injections of large sample volumes at a fast extraction rate, providing a gain in both sensitivity and sample preparation time. The calibration curve of the test compound flumazenil (Ro 15-1788) was linear in the concentration range of 1-150 nM, with a correlation coefficient exceeding 0.999. The accuracy of the method ranged from 98 to 101%. A high precision was obtained, with mean intra-assay and inter-assay relative standard deviations of at most 1.4 and 1.5%, respectively, for quality control (QC) samples. The extraction efficiency was determined to be 99.4%, the total recovery 96% and the carryover to 相似文献

An increasing number of proteomic strategies rely on liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to detect and identify constituent peptides of enzymatically digested proteins obtained from various organisms and cell types. However, sample preparation methods for isolating membrane proteins typically involve the use of detergents and chaotropes that often interfere with chromatographic separation and/or electrospray ionization. To address this problem, a sample preparation method combining carbonate extraction, surfactant-free organic solvent-assisted solubilization, and proteolysis was developed and demonstrated to target the membrane subproteome of Deinococcus radiodurans. Out of 503 proteins identified, 135 were recognized as hydrophobic on the basis of their calculated hydropathy values (GRAVY index), corresponding to coverage of 15% of the predicted hydrophobic proteome. Using the PSORT algorithm, 53 of the proteins identified were classified as integral outer membrane proteins and 215 were classified as integral cytoplasmic membrane proteins. All identified integral cytoplasmic membrane proteins had from 1 to 16 mapped transmembrane domains (TMDs), and 65% of those containing four or more mapped TMDs were identified by at least one hydrophobic membrane spanning peptide. The extensive coverage of the membrane subproteome (24%) by identification of highly hydrophobic proteins containing multiple TMDs validates the efficacy of the described sample preparation technique to isolate and solubilize hydrophobic integral membrane proteins from complex protein mixtures. 相似文献

High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with electrospray mass spectrometry (ES-MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS-MS) was used to identify the products formed upon reaction of lysine-containing peptides with the neurotoxicant 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD). In addition, secondary autoxidative reaction products of the resultant alkylpyrroles with the biological thiol, glutathione, were characterized. ES mass spectra of the HPLC-separated conjugates showed intense [M+H]+ ions as well as several ions formed by amide and C-S bond cleavage. The glutathione conjugates of pyrrolylated amino acids and peptides were analyzed by ES ionization and MS-MS, and product-ion spectra showed fragmentation pathways typical of glutathione conjugates. ES-MS-MS analysis of a synthetic nonapeptide modeling a sequence found in neurofilament proteins showed pyrrole formation after incubation with 2,5-HD, and sequence ions were used to assign the position of the pyrrole adduct. Subsequent reaction of the pyrrolylated peptide with reduced glutathione was evidenced by a shift in m/z of the sequence ions of the reaction products with or without prior methylation. The results demonstrate the utility of ES-MS and ES-MS-MS in the characterization of xenobiotic-modified peptides and confirm that stable pyrrole-thiol conjugates are formed by the reaction of biological thils with pyrrolylated peptides. 相似文献

The membrane protein components of photosystem I (PSI) and II (PSII) from different species were prefractionated by liquid extraction and sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation and subsequently analyzed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (RP-HPLC-ESI-MS) using poly-(styrene-divinylbenzene)-based monolithic capillary columns. The analytical method was shown to be very flexible and enabled the identification of antenna proteins as well as most of the proteins of the reaction center from PSI and PSII in various plant species with few RP-HPLC-ESI-MS analyses necessitating only minor adaptations in the gradients of acetonitrile in 0.05% aqueous trifluoroacetic acid. The membrane proteins, ranging in molecular mass (Mr) from 4196 (I protein) to more than 80,000 (PSI A/B) as well as isoforms were identified on the basis of their intact Mr and comparison with Mr deduced from known DNA or protein sequences. High quality mass spectra enabled the identification and quantitation of the nonphosphorylated and phosphorylated reaction center subunits D1, D2, and CP43 of PSII, containing five to seven membrane-spanning alpha-helices. Because of its high flexibility and suitability for proteins having a very wide range of Mr and hydrophobicities, the method is generally applicable to the analysis of complex mixtures of membrane proteins. 相似文献

Untargeted large-scale plant metabolomics using liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Untargeted metabolomics aims to gather information on as many metabolites as possible in biological systems by taking into account all information present in the data sets. Here we describe a detailed protocol for large-scale untargeted metabolomics of plant tissues, based on reversed phase liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-QTOF MS) of aqueous methanol extracts. Dedicated software, MetAlign, is used for automated baseline correction and alignment of all extracted mass peaks across all samples, producing detailed information on the relative abundance of thousands of mass signals representing hundreds of metabolites. Subsequent statistics and bioinformatics tools can be used to provide a detailed view on the differences and similarities between (groups of) samples or to link metabolomics data to other systems biology information, genetic markers and/or specific quality parameters. The complete procedure from metabolite extraction to assembly of a data matrix with aligned mass signal intensities takes about 6 days for 50 samples. 相似文献

Statistical and computational methods for comparative proteomic profiling using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The combined method of LC-MS/MS is increasingly being used to explore differences in the proteomic composition of complex biological systems. The reliability and utility of such comparative protein expression profiling studies is critically dependent on an accurate and rigorous assessment of quantitative changes in the relative abundance of the myriad of proteins typically present in a biological sample such as blood or tissue. In this review, we provide an overview of key statistical and computational issues relevant to bottom-up shotgun global proteomic analysis, with an emphasis on methods that can be applied to improve the dependability of biological inferences drawn from large proteomic datasets. Focusing on a start-to-finish approach, we address the following topics: 1) low-level data processing steps, such as formation of a data matrix, filtering, and baseline subtraction to minimize noise, 2) mid-level processing steps, such as data normalization, alignment in time, peak detection, peak quantification, peak matching, and error models, to facilitate profile comparisons; and, 3) high-level processing steps such as sample classification and biomarker discovery, and related topics such as significance testing, multiple testing, and choice of feature space. We report on approaches that have recently been developed for these steps, discussing their merits and limitations, and propose areas deserving of further research. 相似文献

This study describes the application of a single tube sample preparation technique coupled with multidimensional fractionation for the analysis of a complex membrane protein sample from murine natural killer (NK) cells. A solution-based method that facilitates the solubilization and tryptic digestion of integral membrane proteins is conjoined with strong cation exchange (SCX) liquid chromatography (LC) fractionation followed by microcapillary reversed-phase (microRP) LC tandem mass spectrometric analysis of each SCXLC fraction in second dimension. Sonication in buffered methanol solution was employed to solubilize, and tryptically digest murine NK cell microsomal proteins, allowing for the large-scale identification of integral membrane proteins, including the mapping of the membrane-spanning peptides. Bioinformatic analysis of the acquired tandem mass spectra versus the murine genome database resulted in 11,967 matching tryptic peptide sequences, corresponding to 5782 unique peptide identifications. These peptides resulted in identification of 2563 proteins of which 876 (34%) are classified as membrane proteins. 相似文献

Human saliva contains a large number of proteins and peptides (salivary proteome) that help maintain homeostasis in the oral cavity. Global analysis of human salivary proteome is important for understanding oral health and disease pathogenesis. In this study, large-scale identification of salivary proteins was demonstrated by using shotgun proteomics and two-dimensinal gel electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (2-DE-MS). For the shotgun approach, whole saliva proteins were prefractionated according to molecular weight. The smallest fraction, presumably containing salivary peptides, was directly separated by capillary liquid chromatography (LC). However, the large protein fractions were digested into peptides for subsequent LC separation. Separated peptides were analyzed by on-line electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) using a quadrupole-time of flight mass spectrometer, and the obtained spectra were automatically processed to search human protein sequence database for protein identification. Additionally, 2-DE was used to map out the proteins in whole saliva. Protein spots 105 in number were excised and in-gel digested; and the resulting peptide fragments were measured by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometry and sequenced by LC-MS/MS for protein identification. In total, we cataloged 309 proteins from human whole saliva by using these two proteomic approaches. 相似文献

A metabolomics-based systems toxicology approach was used to profile the urinary metabolites for the toxicity related processes
and pathogenesis induced by doxorubicin (DOX) to rats. Endogenous metabolite profiles were obtained with ultra performance
liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) for rats receiving different single dosages of DOX (5, 10 or 20 mg/kg) prior
and at three time points after dosage. Principal components analysis (PCA) allowed detection of two major systemic metabolic
changes with the time due to the induced toxicity. Furthermore, Analysis of variance (ANOVA) Simultaneous Component Analysis
(ASCA) was applied to reveal the variation caused by time and dose, and their interaction in a multivariate way. Finally,
various metabolites involved in the toxic processes could be identified using their accurate mass and MSn experiments, and possible mechanisms of the toxicity of DOX were postulated. In conclusion, metabolomics as a systems toxicology
approach was able to provide comprehensive information on the dynamic process of drug induced toxicity. In addition, detection
of the systemic toxic effects could be obtained with metabolomics at an earlier stage compared to the clinical chemistry and
histopathological assessment. 相似文献
