Book Quantitative Methods in Proteomics

Download or read book Quantitative Methods in Proteomics written by Katrin Marcus and published by Humana Press. This book was released on 2012-06-08 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protein modifications and changes made to them, as well as the quantities of expressed proteins, can define the various functional stages of the cell. Accordingly, perturbations can lead to various diseases and disorders. As a result, it has become paramount to be able to detect and monitor post-translational modifications and to measure the abundance of proteins within the cell with extreme sensitivity. While protein identification is an almost routine requirement nowadays, reliable techniques for quantifying unmodified proteins (including those that escape detection under standard conditions, such as protein isoforms and membrane proteins) is not routine. Quantitative Methods in Proteomics gives a detailed survey of topics and methods on the principles underlying modern protein analysis, from statistical issues when planning proteomics experiments, to gel-based and mass spectrometry-based applications. The quantification of post-translational modifications is also addressed, followed by the “hot” topics of software and data analysis, as well as various overview chapters which provide a comprehensive overview of existing methods in quantitative proteomics. Written in the successful Methods in Molecular BiologyTM series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible protocols, and notes on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and easily accessible, Quantitative Methods in Proteomics serves as a comprehensive and competent overview of the important and still growing field of quantitative proteomics.

Book Advancement of Photodissociation Mass Spectrometry Methods for the Analysis of Protein Post translational Modifications

Download or read book Advancement of Photodissociation Mass Spectrometry Methods for the Analysis of Protein Post translational Modifications written by Michelle Renee Robinson and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are important for regulating protein structure and function. Despite significant progress for PTM analysis using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), opportunities for new method development remain. The research presented in this dissertation promotes 193 nm ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) as an alternative activation technique for PTM analysis with specific utility for phosphorylated and sulfated peptides. A novel de novo sequencing method with applications for unbiased PTM discovery was developed utilizing Lys-N proteolysis, N-terminal imidazolinylation, and UVPD to direct fragmentation for the formation of N-terminal ions. The N-terminal a, b, and c ions generated by UVPD were differentiated from one another by characteristic mass shifts. Sets of triplet peaks were used to distinguish N-terminal ions from confounding C-terminal ions and improve the accuracy of de novo sequencing. UVPD was evaluated for the analysis of phosphopeptide cations and anions. Negative mode analysis was advantageous for the detection of casein peptides in high phosphorylation states, while positive mode proved more robust for global phosphoproteomic analysis of HeLa and HCC70 cell lysates. Compared to collisional activation, the depth of coverage was lower using UVPD yet more extensive fragmentation and improved phosphate retention on products ions was achieved. Phosphorylation mapping by LC-UVPD-MS was carried out in the C-terminal domain (CTD) of RNA polymerase II as a function of kinase treatment, ERK2 or TFIIH, and organism, yeast or fruit fly. Single phosphorylations on Ser2 or Ser5 in the consensus heptad, YSPTSPS, were observed across all experimental conditions. Analysis of the non-consensus fruit fly CTD revealed the significance of Tyr1 and Pro residues in the +1 position relative to Ser for phosphorylation to occur. For sulfated peptides, negative mode UVPD yielded a and x ions that largely retained the labile sulfate modification, facilitating peptide sequencing and PTM localization. With appropriate MS/MS tools established, the next step towards global sulfoproteomics was the development of enrichment methods. Weak anion exchange (WAX) was applied for this purpose. Following carbamylation to neutralize primary amines which otherwise repel the anion exchanger; improved WAX retention was observed for sulfopeptides relative to a complex mixture of unmodified bovine serum albumin peptides.

Book Characterization and Identification of Protein Posttranslational Modifications Using Protein Enrichment and Mass Spectrometry

Download or read book Characterization and Identification of Protein Posttranslational Modifications Using Protein Enrichment and Mass Spectrometry written by Liwen Wang and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This dissertation describes a proteomic workflow for the analysis of protein post-translational modifications (PTMs). The workflow combines the techniques for protein enrichment, multi-dimensional separations, mass spectrometry (MS) and automatic data analysis. The workflow was developed to improve the application of proteomic analysis in the realms of biomarker discovery and experimental therapeutic research. Chapter 2 presents an immunoaffinity chromatography method that was developed to enrich acetylated histones. A self-packed immunoaffinity capillary column was developed using commercial antibodies that could be recycled and used for on-line and off-line enrichment. The acetylated fractions were collected and identified by Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption (MALDI) MS and electrospray ionization (ESI) liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). In chapter 3 an optimized phosphoproteomic analysis workflow based on phosphopeptide enrichment, data-dependant neutral loss mass spectrometry and a novel hierarchical database searching is described. The combination of these approaches improved the confidence of phosphopeptide identifications. Chapter 4 describes the use of phosphoprotein enrichment and a tandem phosphoprotein and phosphopeptide enrichment to improve the identification of phosphoproteins and localization of the phosphorylation sites. Purification of global phosphoproteins from primary CLL B-cells was conducted by use of PhosTag Zn2 enrichment strategy at neutral pH. SDS-PAGE gel was used to separate the purified phosphoprotein fraction and Pro-Q diamond staining was employed to visualize those phosphoprotein bands. Shot-gun proteomic analysis was then performed to identify all the enriched phosphoproteins in the gel. Phosphopeptide enrichment was used in tandem to map phosphorylation sites of the enriched phosphoproteins. Chapter 5 describes the identification of tyrosine phosphoproteins associated with immunotherapy of malignant cells with the small modular immunopharmaceutical targeted against CD37 (CD37-SMIPTM). This drug induces apoptosis and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) in primary Chronic Lymphocyte Leukemia (CLL) cells. Tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins was investigated as an early activation event for the cytotoxicity. Immunoprecipitation was used to purify the phosphotyrosine proteins from treated cell lysate and untreated cell lysate. Detection of modulation of tyrosine phosphorylation and identification of those tyrosine phosphoproteins after treatment by proteomic approaches revealed proteins associated with the signaling pathway activated by immunotherapy. Chapter 6 describes a direct application of the proteomic platform developed in Chapter 3 combined with LC-MS protein profiling. The modulation of histone phosphorylation isoforms induced by various chemotherapy drugs was detected by LC-MS screening. We detected the dephosphorylation of histones H1 and hyperphosphorylation of H2A.X associated with the different drug treatments.

Book Advancing Quantitative Proteomics and Protein Post translational Modification Analyses by Multi dimensional Mass Spectrometric Approaches

Download or read book Advancing Quantitative Proteomics and Protein Post translational Modification Analyses by Multi dimensional Mass Spectrometric Approaches written by Zihui Li and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proteins are important molecules that are involved in numerous critical biological processes. Consequently, understanding the functional roles and dysregulation of proteins constitutes a vital task in both basic and clinical research. However, it is very challenging to define the full complement of proteins due to their large degree of variations, especially considering that many proteins can undergo numerous post-translational modifications (PTMs) which dramatically affect protein conformations and functions. Recently, mass spectrometry (MS) has evolved as a powerful tool to characterize proteins and their PTMs benefiting from its high speed, sensitivity and the ability to monitor thousands of analytes simultaneously. This dissertation is devoted to the development and application of various MS-based strategies to facilitate the detection of proteins and their PTMs qualitatively and quantitatively. A portion of this dissertation describes the investigation of proteome-wide alterations with the development and maturation of human pancreas using custom-developed isobaric tags. This study focuses on the extracellular matrix proteins and provides information on the localization changes of selected proteins in islet or acinar compartments as well. The normal baseline data across the lifespan of human pancreas will become a valuable resource and benefit future studies into the pancreatic pathologies. Switching gear to protein PTMs, this dissertation documents the design and development of a novel biotin thiol tag to greatly improve the in-depth profiling of two important PTMs, citrullination and homocitrullination, from complex biological samples. The utility of the approach is demonstrated by providing the first tissue-specific citrullination and homocitrullination atlas in mice. The first high-throughput quantitative analysis pipeline of protein citrullination is subsequently developed by the integration with isobaric labeling strategy. We also further improve the protein citrullination detection by using a combination of various digestion and fragmentation techniques. Citrullination alteration during the progression of Alzheimer's disease is further explored using human cerebrospinal fluid to shed light on the disease pathogenesis. This dissertation also highlights the application of a novel sub-atmospheric pressure matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry platform for the in situ imaging of N-glycans. Spatial distribution of N-glycans in ovarian cancer tissue section may indicate potential association of this modification with tumor progression. Collectively, we expect the biological insights and technological advancements presented in this work will lead to improved understanding of microenvironment in both healthy and disease conditions, and the new knowledge gained from these studies will inspire and benefit future research effort in related fields.
