Analysis of plasma proteins using 2D gels and novel fluorescent probes: in search of blood based biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease. Proteome Sci 2022; 20:2. [PMID: 35081972 PMCID: PMC8790928 DOI: 10.1186/s12953-021-00185-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2021] [Accepted: 12/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Australian Imaging and Biomarker Lifestyle (AIBL) study of aging is designed to aid the discovery of biomarkers. The current study aimed to discover differentially expressed plasma proteins that could yield a blood-based screening tool for Alzheimer's disease. METHODS The concentration of proteins in plasma covers a vast range of 12 orders of magnitude. Therefore, to search for medium to low abundant biomarkers and elucidate mechanisms of AD, we immuno-depleted the most abundant plasma proteins and pre-fractionated the remaining proteins by HPLC, prior to two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The relative levels of approximately 3400 protein species resolved on the 2D gels were compared using in-gel differential analysis with spectrally resolved fluorescent protein detection dyes (Zdyes™). Here we report on analysis of pooled plasma samples from an initial screen of a sex-matched cohort of 72 probable AD patients and 72 healthy controls from the baseline time point of AIBL. RESULTS We report significant changes in variants of apolipoprotein E, haptoglobin, α1 anti-trypsin, inter-α trypsin inhibitor, histidine-rich glycoprotein, and a protein of unknown identity. α1 anti-trypsin and α1 anti-chymotrypsin demonstrated plasma concentrations that were dependent on APOE ε4 allele dose. Our analysis also identified an association with the level of Vitamin D binding protein fragments and complement factor I with sex. We then conducted a preliminary validation study, on unique individual samples compared to the discovery cohort, using a targeted LC-MS/MS assay on a subset of discovered biomarkers. We found that targets that displayed a high degree of isoform specific changes in the 2D gels were not changed in the targeted MS assay which reports on the total level of the biomarker. CONCLUSIONS This demonstrates that further development of mass spectrometry assays is needed to capture the isoform complexity that exists in theses biological samples. However, this study indicates that a peripheral protein signature has potential to aid in the characterization of AD.

Abstract
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis was instrumental in the birth of proteomics in the late 1980s. However, it is now often considered as an outdated technique for proteomics—a thing of the past. Although this opinion may be true for some biological questions, e.g., when analysis depth is of critical importance, for many others, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis-based proteomics still has a lot to offer. This is because of its robustness, its ability to separate proteoforms, and its easy interface with many powerful biochemistry techniques (including western blotting). This paper reviews where and why two-dimensional gel electrophoresis-based proteomics can still be profitably used. It emerges that, rather than being a thing of the past, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis-based proteomics is still highly valuable for many studies. Thus, its use cannot be dismissed on simple fashion arguments and, as usual, in science, the tree is to be judged by the fruit.

Abstract
Human prolactin (hPRL) plays multiple roles in growth, metabolism, development, reproduction, and immunoregulation, which is an important protein synthesized in a pituitary. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) is an effective method in identity of protein variants for in-depth insight into functions of that protein. 2DE, 2DE-based PRL-immunoblot, mass spectrometry, and bioinformatics were used to analyze hPRL variants in human normal (control; n = 8) pituitaries and in five subtypes of pituitary adenomas [NF- (n = 3)-, FSH+ (n = 3)-, LH+ (n = 3)-, FSH+/LH+ (n = 3)-, and PRL+ (n = 3)-adenomas]. Six hPRL variants were identified with different isoelectric point (pI)-relative molecular mass (Mr ) distribution on a 2DE pattern, including variants V1 (pI 6.1; 26.0 kDa), V2 (pI 6.3; 26.4 kDa), V3 (pI 6.3; 27.9 kDa), V4 (pI 6.5; 26.1 kDa), V5 (pI 6.8; 25.9 kDa), and V6 (pI 6.7; 25.9 kDa). Compared to controls, except for variants V2-V6 in PRL-adenomas, V2 in FSH+-adenomas, and V3 in NF--adenomas, the other PRL variants were significantly downregulated in each subtype of pituitary adenomas. Moreover, the pattern of those six PRL variants was significantly different among five subtypes of pituitary adenomas relative to control pituitaries. Different hPRL variants might be involved in different types of PRL receptor-signaling pathways in a given condition. Those findings clearly revealed the existence of six hPRL variants in human pituitaries, and the pattern changes of six hPRL variants among different subtypes of pituitary adenomas, which provide novel clues to further study the functions, and mechanisms of action, of hPRL in human pituitary and in PRL-related diseases, and the potential clinical value in pituitary adenomas.

Abstract
Gluten proteins are major determinants of the bread making quality of wheat, but also of important wheat-related disorders, including coeliac disease (CD), and allergies. We carried out a proteomic study using the total grain proteins from two low-gliadin wheat lines, obtained by RNAi, and the untransformed wild type as reference. The impact of silencing on both target and on non-target proteins was evaluated. Because of the great protein complexity, we performed separate analyses of four kernel protein fractions: gliadins and glutenin subunits, and metabolic and CM-like proteins, by using a classical 2D electrophoresis gel based approach followed by RP-HPLC/nESI-MS/MS. As a result of the strong down-regulation of gliadins, the HMW-GS, metabolic and chloroform/methanol soluble proteins were over-accumulated in the transgenic lines, especially in the line D793, which showed the highest silencing of gliadins. Basing on these data, and considering that metabolic proteins and chloroform/methanol soluble proteins (CM-like), such as the α-amylase/trypsin inhibitor family, β-amylase and serpins, were related to wheat allergens, further in vivo analysis will be needed, especially those related to clinical trials in controlled patients, to determine if these lines could be used for food preparation for celiac or other gluten intolerant groups. BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE Several enteropathies and allergies are related to wheat proteins. Biotechnological techniques such as genetic transformation and RNA interference have allowed the silencing of gliadin genes, providing lines with very low gliadin content in the grains. We report a proteomic-based approach to characterize two low-gliadin transgenic wheat lines obtained by RNAi technology. These lines harbor the same silencing fragment, but driven by two different endosperm specific promoters (γ-gliadin and D-hordein). The comprehensive proteome analysis of these transgenic lines, by combining two-dimensional electrophoresis and RP-HPLC/nESI-MS/MS, provided a large number of spots differentially expressed between the control and the transgenic lines. Hence, the results of this study will facilitate further safety evaluation of these transgenic lines.

Abstract
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is a genome-reduced, cell wall-less, bacterial pathogen with a predicted coding capacity of less than 700 proteins and is one of the smallest self-replicating pathogens. The cell surface of M. hyopneumoniae is extensively modified by processing events that target the P97 and P102 adhesin families. Here, we present analyses of the proteome of M. hyopneumoniae-type strain J using protein-centric approaches (one- and two-dimensional GeLC–MS/MS) that enabled us to focus on global processing events in this species. While these approaches only identified 52% of the predicted proteome (347 proteins), our analyses identified 35 surface-associated proteins with widely divergent functions that were targets of unusual endoproteolytic processing events, including cell adhesins, lipoproteins and proteins with canonical functions in the cytosol that moonlight on the cell surface. Affinity chromatography assays that separately used heparin, fibronectin, actin and host epithelial cell surface proteins as bait recovered cleavage products derived from these processed proteins, suggesting these fragments interact directly with the bait proteins and display previously unrecognized adhesive functions. We hypothesize that protein processing is underestimated as a post-translational modification in genome-reduced bacteria and prokaryotes more broadly, and represents an important mechanism for creating cell surface protein diversity.

Abstract
Interleukin-10, an important regulator of both the innate and adaptive immune systems, is a multifunctional major cytokine. Though it is one of the major cytokines, IL-10 from the Indian major carp, Labeo rohita, has not yet been characterized. In the present study, we report large scale production and purification of biologically active recombinant IL-10 of L. rohita (rLrIL-10) using a heterologous expression system and its biophysical and functional characterization. High yield (~70 mg/L) of soluble rLrIL-10 was obtained at shake flask level. The rLrIL-10 was found to exist as a dimer. Far-UV CD spectroscopy showed presence of predominantly alpha helices. The tertiary structure of the purified rLrIL-10 was verified by fluorescence spectroscopy. Two-dimensional gel analysis revealed the presence of six isoforms of the rLrIL-10. The rLrIL-10 was biologically active and its administration significantly reduced serum proinflammatory cytokines, namely, interleukin 1β, TNFα, and IL-8, and augmented the NKEF transcript levels in spleen of L. rohita. Anti-inflammatory role of the rLrIL-10 was further established by inhibition of phagocytosis using NBT reduction assay in vitro. The data indicate that the dimeric alpha helical structure and function of IL-10 of L. rohita as a key regulator of anti-inflammatory response have remained conserved during evolution.

Abstract
Deamidation in ricin, a toxin present in castor beans from the plant Ricinus communis, was investigated using capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and liquid chromatography coupled to high resolution mass spectrometry. Potential sites for deamidation, converting asparagine (Asn) into aspartic or isoaspartic acid (Asp or isoAsp), were identified in silico based on the protein sequence motifs and tertiary structure. In parallel, CZE- and LC-MS-based screening were performed on the digested toxin to detect deamidated peptides. The use of CZE-MS was critical for the separation of small native/deamidated peptide pairs. Selected peptides were subjected to a detailed analysis by tandem mass spectrometry to verify the presence of deamidation and determine its exact position. In the ricin preparation studied, deamidation was confirmed and located to three asparagine residues: Asn54 in the A-chain, and Asn42 and Asn60 in the B-chain. Possible in vitro deamidation occurring during sample preparation was monitored using a synthetic peptide with a known and rapid rate of deamidation. Finally, we showed that the isoelectric diversity previously reported in ricin is related to the level of deamidation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Wheat glutenin polymers are made up of two main subunit types, the high- (HMW-GS) and low- (LMW-GS) molecular weight subunits. These latter are represented by heterogeneous proteins. The most common, based on the first amino acid of the mature sequence, are known as LMW-m and LMW-s types. The mature sequences differ as a consequence of three extra amino acids (MET-) at the N-terminus of LMW-m types. The nucleotide sequences of their encoding genes are, however, nearly identical, so that the relationship between gene and protein sequences is difficult to ascertain.It has been hypothesized that the presence of an asparagine residue in position 23 of the complete coding sequence for the LMW-s type might account for the observed three-residue shortened sequence, as a consequence of cleavage at the asparagine by an asparaginyl endopeptidase. RESULTS We performed site-directed mutagenesis of a LMW-s gene to replace asparagine at position 23 with threonine and thus convert it to a candidate LMW-m type gene. Similarly, a candidate LMW-m type gene was mutated at position 23 to replace threonine with asparagine. Next, we produced transgenic durum wheat (cultivar Svevo) lines by introducing the mutated versions of the LMW-m and LMW-s genes, along with the wild type counterpart of the LMW-m gene.Proteomic comparisons between the transgenic and null segregant plants enabled identification of transgenic proteins by mass spectrometry analyses and Edman N-terminal sequencing. CONCLUSIONS Our results show that the formation of LMW-s type relies on the presence of an asparagine residue close to the N-terminus generated by signal peptide cleavage, and that LMW-GS can be quantitatively processed most likely by vacuolar asparaginyl endoproteases, suggesting that those accumulated in the vacuole are not sequestered into stable aggregates that would hinder the action of proteolytic enzymes. Rather, whatever is the mechanism of glutenin polymer transport to the vacuole, the proteins remain available for proteolytic processing, and can be converted to the mature form by the removal of a short N-terminal sequence.

Abstract
Cardiovascular (CV) disease is the single most significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The emerging global impact of CV disease means that the goals of early diagnosis and a wider range of treatment options are now increasingly pertinent. As such, there is a greater need to understand the molecular mechanisms involved and potential targets for intervention. Mitochondrial function is important for physiological maintenance of the cell, and when this function is altered, the cell can begin to suffer. Given the broad range and significant impacts of the cellular processes regulated by the mitochondria, it becomes important to understand the roles of the proteins associated with this organelle. Proteomic investigations of the mitochondria are hampered by the intrinsic properties of the organelle, including hydrophobic mitochondrial membranes; high proportion of basic proteins (pI greater than 8.0); and the relative dynamic range issues of the mitochondria. For these reasons, many proteomic studies investigate the mitochondria as a discrete subproteome. Once this has been achieved, the alterations that result in functional changes with CV disease can be observed. Those alterations that lead to changes in mitochondrial function, signaling and morphology, which have significant implications for the cardiomyocyte in the development of CV disease, are discussed.

Abstract
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) is a gel-based technique widely used for analyzing the protein composition of biological samples. It is capable of resolving complex mixtures containing more than a thousand protein components into individual protein spots through the coupling of two orthogonal biophysical separation techniques: isoelectric focusing (first dimension) and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (second dimension). 2-DE is ideally suited for analyzing the entire expressed protein complement of a bacterial cell: its proteome. Its relative simplicity and good reproducibility have led to 2-DE being widely used for exploring proteomics within a wide range of environmental and medically-relevant bacteria. Here we give a broad overview of the basic principles and historical development of gel-based proteomics, and how this powerful approach can be applied for studying bacterial biology and physiology. We highlight specific 2-DE applications that can be used to analyze when, where and how much proteins are expressed. The links between proteomics, genomics and mass spectrometry are discussed. We explore how proteomics involving tandem mass spectrometry can be used to analyze (post-translational) protein modifications or to identify proteins of unknown origin by de novo peptide sequencing. The use of proteome fractionation techniques and non-gel-based proteomic approaches are also discussed. We highlight how the analysis of proteins secreted by bacterial cells (secretomes or exoproteomes) can be used to study infection processes or the immune response. This review is aimed at non-specialists who wish to gain a concise, comprehensive and contemporary overview of the nature and applications of bacterial proteomics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Wheat flour is one of the world's major food ingredients, in part because of the unique end-use qualities conferred by the abundant glutamine- and proline-rich gluten proteins. Many wheat flour proteins also present dietary problems for consumers with celiac disease or wheat allergies. Despite the importance of these proteins it has been particularly challenging to use MS/MS to distinguish the many proteins in a flour sample and relate them to gene sequences. RESULTS Grain from the extensively characterized spring wheat cultivar Triticum aestivum 'Butte 86' was milled to white flour from which proteins were extracted, then separated and quantified by 2-DE. Protein spots were identified by separate digestions with three proteases, followed by tandem mass spectrometry analysis of the peptides. The spectra were used to interrogate an improved protein sequence database and results were integrated using the Scaffold program. Inclusion of cultivar specific sequences in the database greatly improved the results, and 233 spots were identified, accounting for 93.1% of normalized spot volume. Identified proteins were assigned to 157 wheat sequences, many for proteins unique to wheat and nearly 40% from Butte 86. Alpha-gliadins accounted for 20.4% of flour protein, low molecular weight glutenin subunits 18.0%, high molecular weight glutenin subunits 17.1%, gamma-gliadins 12.2%, omega-gliadins 10.5%, amylase/protease inhibitors 4.1%, triticins 1.6%, serpins 1.6%, purinins 0.9%, farinins 0.8%, beta-amylase 0.5%, globulins 0.4%, other enzymes and factors 1.9%, and all other 3%. CONCLUSIONS This is the first successful effort to identify the majority of abundant flour proteins for a single wheat cultivar, relate them to individual gene sequences and estimate their relative levels. Many genes for wheat flour proteins are not expressed, so this study represents further progress in describing the expressed wheat genome. Use of cultivar-specific contigs helped to overcome the difficulties of matching peptides to gene sequences for members of highly similar, rapidly evolving storage protein families. Prospects for simplifying this process for routine analyses are discussed. The ability to measure expression levels for individual flour protein genes complements information gained from efforts to sequence the wheat genome and is essential for studies of effects of environment on gene expression.

Abstract
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) subforms (F1-F5) have been described to be altered in prostate cancer (PCa) compared to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). To understand their molecular differences, characterization of these subforms from PCa serum and seminal plasma, namely, at the glycan level, was performed. PSA 2-DE subforms from two serum PCa samples and seminal plasma were analyzed by N-glycan sequencing using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) combined with exoglycosidase array digestions and by mass spectrometry. F1, F2, and F3 subforms showed the same N-glycan pattern, which contained higher levels of sialic acid than the F4 subform, whereas the F5 subform was unglycosylated. When comparing PSA subforms from PCa with seminal plasma, a decrease in sialylation was observed. Furthermore, the analysis of F3, the more abundant PSA subform, showed a higher proportion of alpha 2-3 sialic acid and a decrease in core fucosylated glycans in the PCa sample. These N-glycan changes in PCa PSA subforms highlight the importance of glycosylation as an indicator of PCa disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The accumulation of old and damaged proteins likely contributes to complications of diabetes, but currently no methodology is available to measure the relative age of a specific protein alongside assessment of posttranslational modifications (PTM). To accomplish our goal of studying the impact of insulin deficiency and hyperglycemia in type 1 diabetes upon accumulation of old damaged isoforms of plasma apolipoprotein A-1 (ApoA-1), we sought to develop a novel methodology, which is reported here and can also be applied to other specific proteins. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS To label newly synthesized proteins, [ring-(13)C(6)]phenylalanine was intravenously infused for 8 h in type 1 diabetic participants (n = 7) during both insulin treatment and 8 h of insulin deprivation and in nondiabetic participants (n = 7). ApoA-1 isoforms were purified by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DGE) and assessment of protein identity, PTM, and [ring-(13)C(6)]phenylalanine isotopic enrichment (IE) was performed by tandem mass spectrometry. RESULTS Five isoforms of plasma ApoA-1 were identified by 2DGE including ApoA-1 precursor (pro-ApoA-1) that contained the relatively highest IE, whereas the older forms contained higher degrees of damage (carbonylation, deamidation) and far less IE. In type 1 diabetes, the relative ratio of IE of [ring-(13)C(6)]phenylalanine in an older isoform versus pro-ApoA-1 was higher during insulin deprivation, indicating that de novo synthesized pro-ApoA-1 more rapidly accumulated damage, converting to mature ApoA-1. CONCLUSIONS We developed a mass spectrometry-based methodology to identify the relative age of protein isoforms. The results demonstrated accelerated oxidative damage to plasma ApoA-1, thus offering a potential mechanism underlying the impact of poor glycemic control in type 1 diabetic patients that affects a patient's risk for vascular disease.

Abstract
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis has been instrumental in the birth and developments of proteomics, although it is no longer the exclusive separation tool used in the field of proteomics. In this review, a historical perspective is made, starting from the days where two-dimensional gels were used and the word proteomics did not even exist. The events that have led to the birth of proteomics are also recalled, ending with a description of the now well-known limitations of two-dimensional gels in proteomics. However, the often-underestimated advantages of two-dimensional gels are also underlined, leading to a description of how and when to use two-dimensional gels for the best in a proteomics approach. Taking support of these advantages (robustness, resolution, and ability to separate entire, intact proteins), possible future applications of this technique in proteomics are also mentioned.

Abstract
It is assumed that much more functional importance for protein activity than expected may be granted by methylation that occurs at the side-chain of aspartate or glutamate residue. In vitro methylation mainly comes from the use of methanol in sample preparation prior to MS analysis. In this study, we first performed the methylation site-directed proteomic screening of bovine serum albumin, ovalbumin and 20S proteasome for gel staining using a meaningfully indicative MS-pattern of peak tag (termed as 4P tag) and manual inspection for mass spectral data. As a result, there were 17 proteolytic peptides with 20 modified sites confirmed to be in vitro methylated. Subsequently, the prevalence investigation was performed, focusing on the reaction kinetic behavior of in vitro methylation. This study provided a simple and robust approach for confirmation of in vitro methylation by methanol, as well as the precautious guide for the use of methanol in proteomic study.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of viral proteins regulate various stages of infection. With only 10 proteins, hepatitis C virus (HCV) can orchestrate its complete viral life cycle. HCV non-structural protein 3 (NS3) has many functions. It has protease and helicase activities, interacts with several host-cell proteins and plays a role in translation, replication and virus-particle formation. Organization of all these functions is necessary and could be regulated by PTMs. We therefore searched for modifications of the NS3 protein in the subgenomic HCV replicon. When performing a tag-capture approach coupled with two-dimensional gel electrophoresis analyses, we observed that isolated His6-NS3 yielded multiple spots. Individual protein spots were digested in gel and analysed by mass spectrometry. Differences observed between the individual peptide mass fingerprints suggested the presence of modified peptides and allowed us to identify N-terminal acetylation and an adaptive mutation of NS3 (Q1067R). Further analysis of other NS3 variants revealed phosphorylation of NS3.

Abstract
Deamidation of asparaginyl and isomerization of aspartyl residues in proteins produce a mixture of aspartyl and isoaspartyl residues, the latter being involved in protein aging and inactivation. Electron capture dissociation (ECD) combined with Fourier transform mass spectrometry (FT MS) are known to be able to distinguish the isoaspartyl peptides by unique fragments of cn* + 58.0054 (C2H2O2) and z(l-n)-56.9976 (C2HO2), where n is the position of the aspartyl residue and l is the peptide length. In the present study, we tested the specificity of isoAsp detection using the accurate masses of the specific fragments. For this purpose, we analyzed 32 whole and partial proteomes obtained from human cells as well as tissue samples and identified by ECD 466 isoaspartyl peptide candidates. Detailed inspection revealed that many of these candidates were unreliable. To increase the isoAsp detection specificity, additional criteria had to be used, for example, adjacent c/z fragments, specific losses from the reduced species, and the shape of the chromatographic peak. Most stringent filtering of candidates yielded several cases where the presence of isoAsp was beyond doubt. Among the identified proteins with isoAsp, actin, heat shock cognate 71 kDa protein and pyruvate kinase have previously been identified as substrates for l-isoaspartyl methyltransferase, an important repair enzyme converting isoaspartyl to aspartyl. Quantification of relative isomerization degree was performed by the label-free approach. This is the first attempt to analyze the human isoaspartome in a high-throughput manner. The developed workflow allows for further enhancement of the detection rate of isoaspartyl residues in biological samples.

Abstract
Background Clostridium perfringens is a medically important clostridial pathogen causing diseases in man and animals. To invade, multiply and colonize tissues of the host, a pathogen must be able to evade host immune system, and obtain nutrients essential for growth. The factors involved in these complex processes are largely unknown and of crucial importance to understanding microbial pathogenesis. Many of the virulence determinants and putative vaccine candidates for bacterial pathogens are known to be surface localized. Results Using 2-DE mass spectrometry strategy, we identified major surface (22) and cell envelope (10) proteins from Clostridium perfringens ATCC13124 and those differentially expressed (11) in cells grown on cooked meat medium (CMM) in comparison with cells grown in reference state (tryptose-yeast extract-glucose medium). Riboflavin biosynthesis protein, ornithine carbamoyltransferase, cystathionine beta-lyase, and threonine dehydratase were the predominant proteins that exhibited 2.19 to 8.5 fold increase in the expression level in cells growing on CMM. Conclusion Ornithine carbamoyltransferase and cystathionine beta-lyase were over-expressed in cells grown on cooked meat medium and also identified in the surface protein fraction and the former was immunogenic; making them potential vaccine candidates. Based upon bioinformatic analysis; choloylglycine hydrolase family protein, cell wall-associated serine proteinase, and rhomboid family protein were predicted as surface protein markers for specific detection of C. perfringens from the environment and food. Most of the proteins over-expressed in CMM were shown to have putative function in metabolism, of which seven were involved in amino acid transport and metabolism or lipid metabolism.

Abstract
Campylobacter species are a major cause of disease in mammalian systems. The most common human etiological agent within this genus is Campylobacter jejuni - the leading cause of bacterial gastroenteritis in the developed world. While this organism has been extensively studied at the cellular level, and the genome sequences of several strains have now been elucidated, little is known regarding the role of individual proteins in virulence processes, such as adhesion, colonization and toxicity towards host cells. Proteomics encompasses the global analysis of proteins at the organism level. The technologies included under this term have now started to be utilized for understanding how Campylobacter species respond to changes in the environment, with an emphasis on the human host, as well as to map subcellular locations of proteins, in particular those that are surface-associated. C. jejuni is also of great significance as, unlike most other bacteria, it is able to post-translationally modify its proteins. The analysis of such proteins represents a major challenge in understanding this organism at the proteomic and cellular levels. This review will examine the state-of-the-art in Campylobacter proteomics, as well as provide insights into strategies that need to be undertaken to provide a comprehensive understanding of this organism at the molecular and functional level.

Abstract
Background The hNaa10p (hArd1) protein is the catalytic subunit of the human NatA Nα-terminal acetyltransferase complex. The NatA complex is associated with ribosomes and cotranslationally acetylates human proteins with Ser-, Ala-, Thr-, Val-, and Gly- N-termini after the initial Met- has been removed. In the flexible C-terminal tail of hNaa10p, there are several potential phosphorylation sites that might serve as points of regulation. Findings Using 2D-gel electrophoresis and hNaa10p specific antibodies, we have investigated whether hNaa10p is phosphorylated in HEK293 cells. Several differently charged forms of hNaa10p are present in HEK293 cells and treatment with Calf Intestine Alkaline Phophatase (CIAP) strongly suggests that hNaa10p is phosphorylated at multiple sites under various cell culture conditions. A direct or indirect role of GSK-3 kinase in regulating hNaa10p phosphorylation is supported by the observed effects of Wortmannin and LiCl, a GSK-3 activator and inhibitor, respectively. Conclusion We demonstrate that hNaa10p protein is phosphorylated in cell culture potentially pointing at phosphorylation as a means of regulating the function of one of the major Nα-terminal acetyltransferases in human cells.

Abstract
Extraction of crude membrane fractions with alkaline solutions, such as 100-200 mM Na(2)CO(3) (pH ~11), is often used to solubilize peripheral membrane proteins. Integral membrane proteins are largely retained in membrane pellets. We applied this method to the fractionation of membrane proteins of the plague bacterium Yersinia pestis. Extensive horizontal spot trains were observed in 2-DE gels. The pI values of the most basic spots part of such protein spot trains usually matched the computationally predicted pI values. Regular patterns of decreasing spot pI values and in silico analysis with the software ProMoST suggested ;n-1' deamidations of asparagine (N) and/or glutamine (Q) side chains for ;n' observed spots of a protein in a given spot train. MALDI-MS analysis confirmed the occurrence of deamidations, particularly in N side chains part of NG dipeptide motifs. In more than ten cases, tandem MS data for tryptic peptides provided strong evidence for deamidations, with y- and b-ion series increased by 1 Da following N-to-D substitutions. Horizontal spot trains in 2-DE gels were rare when alkaline extraction was omitted during membrane protein sample preparation. This study strongly supports the notion that exposure to alkaline pH solutions is a dominant cause of extensive N and Q side chain deamidations in proteins during sample preparation of membrane extracts. The modifications are of non-enzymatic nature and not physiologically relevant. Therefore, quantitative spot differences within spot trains in differential protein display experiments following the aforementioned sample preparation steps need to be interpreted cautiously.

Abstract
In vitro chemical modifications in proteins, introduced during sample preparation, can complicate mass spectra and increase the potential for false-positive identifications. While several in vitro protein modifications have been described previously, additional types of such modifications may exist. Here, we report discovery of four types of in vitro protein modifications, identified by HPLC/MS/MS analysis and nonrestrictive protein sequence alignment by PTMap, an algorithm recently developed in our laboratory. These novel in vitro modifications included ethylation of aspartate and glutamate (+28 Da), esterification of aspartate and glutamate by glycerol (+74 Da), loss of 19 Da from lysine, and addition of 108 Da to cysteine. We confirmed that these modifications occurred in vitro and not in vivo in control experiments designed to avoid conditions likely to induce the modifications. We propose a plausible molecular mechanism for the -19 Da modification of lysine. Our study therefore conclusively identifies several novel in vitro protein modifications, suggests ways to avoid these modifications, and highlights the possibility of misidentification of peptides because of in vitro modifications.

Abstract
Toxic oil syndrome (TOS) is a disease that appeared in Spain in 1981 as a consequence of the ingestion of an aniline-adulterated oil illegally marketed as edible. TOS affected more than 20 000 people and produced over 400 deaths in the first 18 months after the outbreak. There is evidence that genetic factors could play a role in the susceptibility of individuals towards the disease. Recently, we suggested that haptoglobin (Hp) polymorphism could also play a role in TOS. To provide a rapid method for high-throughput Hp phenotyping, we developed a two-step MALDI-TOF procedure that allows specific identification of the three common Hp alpha chains. Resolution of the homologous alpha-1s and alpha-1f chains, which have a mass difference of only 0.043 Da, is obtained after guanidination of the protein with O-methylisourea. We applied this procedure to the study of the distribution of the Hp alleles HP(1s), HP(1f), HP(2) in a control versus a TOS-affected population, both originally exposed to the toxic oil. The MALDI-TOF proteotyping method was validated by a parallel analysis of the serum samples by 2-DE. Data obtained from 54 TOS cases and 48 control individuals indicate significant differences in the distribution of Hp phenotypes in the two populations.

Abstract
Degradation of bovine nasal cartilage induced by interleukin-1 (IL-1) was used to study catabolic events in the tissue over 16 days. Culture medium was fractionated by two-dimensional electrophoresis (isoelectric focusing and SDS-PAGE). Identification of components by peptide mass fingerprinting revealed released fragments representing the NC4 domain of the type IX collagen alpha1 chain at days 12 and 16. A novel peptide antibody against a near N-terminal epitope of the NC4 domain confirmed the finding and indicated the presence of one of the fragments already at day 9. Mass spectrometric analysis of the two most abundant fragments revealed that the smallest one contained almost the entire NC4 domain cleaved between arginine 258 and isoleucine 259 in the sequence -ETCNELPAR258-COOH NH2-ITP-. A larger fragment contained the NC4 domain and the major part of the COL3 domain with a cleavage site between glycine 400 and threonine 401 in COL3 (-RGPPGPPGPPGPSG400-COOH NH2-TIG-). The presence of multiple collagen alpha1 (IX) N-terminal sequences demonstrates that the released molecules were cleaved at sites very close to the original N terminus either prior to or due to IL-1 treatment. Matrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMP-13) is active and cleaves fibromodulin in the time interval studied. Cartilage explants treated with MMP-13 were shown to release collagen alpha1 (IX) fragments with the same sizes and with the same cleavage sites as those obtained upon IL-1 treatment. These data describe cleavage by an MMP-13 activity toward non-collagenous and triple helix domains. These potentially important degradation events precede the major loss of type II collagen.

Abstract
While bacterial genome annotations have significantly improved in recent years, techniques for bacterial proteome annotation (including post-translational chemical modifications, signal peptides, proteolytic events, etc.) are still in their infancy. At the same time, the number of sequenced bacterial genomes is rising sharply, far outpacing our ability to validate the predicted genes, let alone annotate bacterial proteomes. In this study, we use tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) to annotate the proteome of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, an important microbe for bioremediation. In particular, we provide the first comprehensive map of post-translational modifications in a bacterial genome, including a large number of chemical modifications, signal peptide cleavages, and cleavages of N-terminal methionine residues. We also detect multiple genes that were missed or assigned incorrect start positions by gene prediction programs, and suggest corrections to improve the gene annotation. This study demonstrates that complementing every genome sequencing project by an MS/MS project would significantly improve both genome and proteome annotations for a reasonable cost.

Abstract
Synapsins are key phosphoproteins in the mammalian brain, and structural research on synapsins is still holding center stage. Proteins were extracted from hippocampal tissue and separated on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE), and the spots were analyzed by MALDI-TOF-TOF and nano-LC-ESI-MS/MS. Synapsins Ia, IIa, and IIb were unambiguously identified and represented by 15 individual spots on 2-DE. Several serine phosphorylation sites were confirmed, and a novel phosphorylation site was observed at Ser-546 in synapsin IIa in all gels analyzed.

Abstract
Protective antigen is essential for the pathology of Bacillus anthracis and is the proposed immunogen for an improved human anthrax vaccine. Known since discovery to comprise differentially charged isoforms, the cause of heterogeneity has eluded specific structural definition until now. Recombinant protective antigen (rPA) contains similar isoforms that appear early in fermentation and are mostly removed through purification. By liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry sequencing of the entire protein and inspection of spectral data for amino acid modifications, pharmaceutical rPA contained measurable deamidation at seven of its 68 asparagine residues. A direct association between isoform complexity and percent deamidation was observed such that each decreased with purity and increased with protein aging. Position N537 consistently showed the highest level of modification, although its predicted rate of deamidation ranked 10th by theoretical calculation, and other asparagines of higher predicted rates were observed to be unmodified. rPA with more isoforms and greater deamidation displayed lower activities for furin cleavage, heptamerization, and holotoxin formation. Lethal factor-mediated macrophage toxicity correlated inversely with deamidation at residues N466 and N408. The described method measures deamidation without employing theoretical isotopic distributions, comparison between differentially treated samples or computational predictions of reactivity rates, and is broadly applicable to the characterization of other deamidated proteins.

Abstract
Protein post-translational modifications are crucial to the function of many proteins. In this study, we have investigated the structural environment of 8378 incidences of 44 types of post-translational modifications with 19 different approaches. We show that modified amino acids likely to be involved in protein-protein interactions, such as ester-linked phosphorylation, methylarginine, acetyllysine, sulfotyrosine, hydroxyproline, and hydroxylysine, are clearly surface associated. Other modifications, including O-GlcNAc, phosphohistidine, 4-aspartylphosphate, methyllysine, and ADP-ribosylarginine, are either not surface associated or are in a protein's core. Artifactual modifications were found to be randomly distributed throughout the protein. We discuss how the surface accessibility of post-translational modifications can be important for protein-protein interactivity.

Abstract
Human complement factor H (factor H) is polymorphic, with five previously reported FH alleles and three previously reported HF alleles (HF*A, HF*B, and HF*Q0). The relationship between the FH and HF alleles is not clear, and the genetic basis of factor H phenotypes has not yet been identified. In this study, nucleotide sequence analysis of complementary DNA (cDNA) from individuals with each HF phenotype identified seven mutated sites in the factor H gene. However, in four cases, the same cDNA sequence was observed in individuals with two different HF phenotypes. Western blotting and 2-DE also showed that a 160 kDa protein corresponding to factor H was expressed in individuals with HF phenotypes. In addition, factor H cross-reacting 45 and 42 kDa polypeptides were detected in individuals with HF A, HF B, or HF AB phenotypes, but not in individuals with the HF Q0 (a null allele) phenotype. Thus, HF phenotype did not correlate well with factor H gene or protein structural variation. Evidence is provided to support the hypothesis that the HF phenotypes do not correspond to polymorphism in factor H, but instead correspond to polymorphism in factor H-related protein 1. A novel PCR-RFLP method was developed and used to detect four polymorphisms (G257A, G1492A, A2089G, and G2881T) in the factor H gene in 54 unrelated Japanese individuals. This method could be useful for studies on genetic disease associated with these mutations.

Abstract
Abstract
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) affects 3–5% of pregnancies and is associated with increased perinatal morbidity and mortality. Currently, there is no reliable biochemical test to differentiate a pathological FGR from a nonpathological one. The objective of this study was to screen whole maternal plasma to identify differentially expressed relatively abundant proteins associated with FGR. We analyzed maternal plasma from FGR (n=28) and healthy (n=22) pregnancies using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D-GE) followed by software image analysis. Three spots with molecular weight (Mr) 18 kDa corresponding to haptoglobin (hp) α2, as identified by LC-MS/MS and immunoblotting, showed differential expression patterns in FGR. The distribution of hp α2 variants in maternal plasma samples showed the hp α2 variant 1 was low in 72% of FGR, medium in 16%, whereas high in 12%. In comparison, hp α2 variant 1 was high in (41%) of controls, medium in 41%, and low in 18% of cases. Based on the software image analysis, the mean spot volume for hp α2 variant 1 was 0.12 (SD=0.18) for FGR compared to 0.26 (SD=0.19) for control (p=0.006). Given that hp turnover is indicative of its maturation process and is traceable in plasma by its dominant/suppressed variants, we propose that hp α2 is an important potential target for evaluation of its clinical and pathophysiological role and as a diagnostic biomarker in FGR.

Abstract
2-D separation of bacterial membrane proteins is still difficult despite using high-resolution IPG-IEF/SDS-PAGE. We were searching for alternative methods to avoid typical problems such as precipitation, low solubility, and aggregation of membrane proteins in the 1-D separation with IPG-IEF. Blue native electrophoresis (BNE) and agarose IEF (A-IEF) were tested for their separation capacity and their capability of replacing IPG-IEF in the first dimension. SDS-PAGE was chosen for the second dimension on account of its outstanding resolution. We could confirm that only A-IEF was a useful replacement for the IPG-IEF in the first dimension resulting in 2-D protein distributions with additional membrane protein spots not being found after IPG-IEF/SDS-PAGE. A second interesting result was that the agarose IEF mediates the possibility of separation of membrane proteins in a partially native state in the first dimension. This native A-IEF resulted in drastically changed spot patterns with an acidic shift of nearly all spots and divergent distribution of proteins compared to non-native A-IEF and IPG-IEF. We found out that native and non-native A-IEF are powerful tools to supplement IPG-IEF/SDS-PAGE.

Abstract
The present review touches on a long-lasting debate on possible artefacts (i.e. generation of spurious spots, not belonging to the biological sample under analysis) induced by the separation technique (in this case, two-dimensional mapping) per se. It is shown here that some of the biggest offenders, always blamed in the past (at least since 1970, i.e. since the inception of gel-base isoelectric focusing protocols), namely deamidation (of Asn and Gln residues) and carbamylation (due to cyanate produced in urea solution), simply do not occur in properly handled samples and have never indeed been demonstrated in real samples, except when forced in purpose. Conversely, two unexpected major artefacts have been recently shown to plague 2D mapping. One is formation of homo- and hetero-oligomers in samples that have been reduced but not alkylated prior to entering the electric field. The phenomenon is highly aggravated in alkaline pH regions and can lead to an impressive number of spurious spots not existing in the original sample. Thus, alkylation (best if performed with acrylamide or vinylpyridines) is a must for avoiding such spurious spots, as well as sample streaking and smearing in the alkaline gel region, and for maintaining sample integrity. In fact, the other unexpected artefact is desulfuration (beta-elimination) by which, upon prolonged electrophoresis, the sample looses an -SH group fro Cys residues. This loss, in the long run, is accompanied by massive protein degradation due to lysis of a C-N bond along the polypeptide chain. Here too, alkylation of -SH groups of Cys almost completely prevents this noxious degradation phenomenon.

Abstract
Glycosylation is a common but variable modification that regulates glycoprotein structure and function. We combined small format 2D-PAGE with HPLC to analyse discrete human haptoglobin isoform N-glycans. Seven major and several minor haptoglobin isoforms were detected by 2D-PAGE. N-Glycans released from Coomassie-stained gel spots using PNGase were labeled at their reducing termini with 2-aminobenzamide. HPLC analysis of selected major isoform N-glycans indicated that sialic acid composition determined their separation by isoelectric focussing. N-Glycans from two doublets of quantitatively minor isoforms were also analysed. Although separation of each pair of doublets was influenced by sialylation, individual spots within each doublet contained identical N-glycans. Thus, heterogeneity in minor haptoglobin isoforms was due to modifications distinct from N-glycan structure. These studies describe a simple method for analysing low abundance protein N-glycans and provide details of discrete haptoglobin isoform N-glycan structures which will be useful in proteomic analysis of human plasma samples.

Abstract
In an accompanying study (in this issue, DOI 10.1002/pmic.200402044), we have characterised the proteome of Sca-1(+) progenitor cells, which may function as precursors of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs). In the present study, we have analysed and mapped protein expression in aortic SMCs of mice, using 2-DE, MALDI-TOF MS and MS/MS. The 2-D system comprised a non-linear immobilised pH 3-10 gradient in the first dimension (separating proteins with pI values of pH 3-10), and 12%T SDS-PAGE in the second dimension (separating proteins in the range 15,000-150,000 Da). Of the 2400 spots visualised, a subset of 267 protein spots was analysed, with 235 protein spots being identified corresponding to 154 unique proteins. The data presented here are the first map of aortic SMCs and the most extensive analysis of SMC proteins published so far. This valuable tool should provide a basis for comparative studies of protein expression in vascular smooth muscle of transgenic mice and is available on our website hhtp://www.vascular-proteomics.com.

Abstract
The sequencing of the human genome has been successfully completed and offers the chance of obtaining a large amount of valuable information for understanding complex cellular events simply and rapidly in a single experiment. Interestingly, in addressing these proteomic studies, the importance of protein-detecting microarray technology is increasing. In the coming few years, microarray technology will become a significantly promising and indispensable research/diagnostic tool from just a speculative technology. It is clear that the protein-detecting microarray is supported by three independent but strongly related technologies (surface chemistry, detection methods, and capture agents). Firstly, a variety of surface-modification methodologies are now widely available and offer site-specific immobilization of capture agents onto surfaces in such a way as to keep the native conformation and activity. Secondly, sensitive and parallel detection apparatuses are being developed to provide highly engineered microarray platforms for simultaneous data acquisition. Lastly, in the development of capture agents, antibodies are now probably the most prominent capture agents for analyzing protein abundances. Alternative scaffolds, such as phage-displayed antibody and protein fragments, which provide the advantage of increasing diversity of proteinic capture agents, however, are under development. An approach involving recombinant proteins fused with affinity tag(s) and coupled with a highly engineered surface chemistry will provide simple production protocols and specific orientations of capture agents on the microarray formats. Peptides and other small molecules can be employed in screening highly potent ligands as well as in measuring enzymatic activities. Protein-detecting microarrays supported by the three key technologies should contribute in accelerating diagnostic/biological research and drug discovery.

Due to their unique capability to attack lignified biopolymers, extracellular enzymes of white-rot fungi enjoy an increasing interest in various fields of white biotechnology. The edible fungus Pleurotus sapidus was selected as a model organism for the analysis of the secretome by means of 2-DE. For enzyme production, the fungus was grown in submerged cultures either on peanut shells or on glass wool as a carrier material. Identification of the secreted enzymes was performed by tryptic digestion, ESI-MS/MS ab initio sequencing, and homology searches against public databases. The spectrum of secreted enzymes comprised various types of hydrolases and lignolytic enzymes of the manganese peroxidase/versatile peroxidase family. While peptidases were secreted mainly by the cultures grown on peanut shells, versatile peroxidase type enzymes dominated in the cultures grown on glass wool.

Abstract
Alpha-amylase is a major and well-characterized component of human saliva. Recent proteomic studies suggested that this protein could be observed in more than twenty spots on 2-D gels of salivary proteins. The aim of this work was to investigate this unexpected redundancy. 2-D gel electrophoresis was combined with systematic MALDI-TOF MS analysis. More than 140 protein spots identifying the alpha-amylase were shown to constitute a stable but very complex pattern. Careful analysis of mass spectra and simultaneous hierarchical clustering of the observed peptides and of the electrophoretic features of spots allowed one to define three major groups. A main class grouping 90 spots was shown to correspond to full length alpha-amylases that can be assumed to include isoforms and post-translationally modified forms, a subset of this class being demonstrated to be N-glycosylated. A second group included short alpha-amylases that are differently truncated in a non-random manner, very likely in the oral cavity. The last class grouped alpha-amylase forms showing both the N- and C-terminal sequences of the enzyme but displaying a molecular weight that was up to 50% lower than that of the native protein. It is speculated that the last group of alpha-amylase spots could correspond to proteins submitted to internal deletions prior to the secretion.

Abstract
In order to elucidate the roles of human growth hormone (hGH) in the normal (control) pituitary and in adenomas, the hGH isoforms in the human pituitary were analyzed with two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, immobilized metal affinity column (Ga(+3)) chromatography, mass spectrometry (MS), and bioinformatics. Twenty-four hGH-containing proteins, with significantly different expression proportions of their isoforms were found. The proportions of isoforms were as follows: isoform 1 (87.5%) > isoform 2 (8.1%) > isoform 3 (3.3%) > isoform 4 (1.1%). Deamidation of asparagine to aspartate was identified with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight MS. Tandem mass spectrometry data demonstrated that hGH is a phosphoprotein (spot 6); phosphorylation was found at Ser-77 in the tryptic peptide (68)YSFLQNPQTSLCFSESIPTPSNR(90), at Ser-176 in the tryptic peptide (172)FDTNSHNDDALLK(184), and at Ser-132 in the peptide (126)SLVYGASDSNVYDLLK(141). The phosphorylation sites at Ser-77 and Ser-176 were consistent with computer-program predictions (NetPhos). These results provide novel clues for further studies of the functions, and mechanisms of action, of hGH in the human pituitary and in growth hormone-related diseases.

Abstract
The ovary plays a central role in oogenesis and gonadal hormone secretion. Proteomic analysis is a valuable approach for gaining an increased understanding of the molecular nature of the ovary. In this work, two-dimensional electrophoresis for protein separation followed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry and database searches, identified 231 protein spots corresponding to 138 individual proteins that were found in gels representing both the follicular and luteal phases. The data were used to construct a database online (http://reprod.njmu.edu.cn/2d). The identified proteins were functionally classified into seven groups: (1) cell signaling/communication, (2) cell division, (3) gene/protein expression, (4) metabolism, (5) cell structure and motility, (6) cell/organism defense, and (7) unclassified. Among the proteins identified, 47% had not been previously reported in the human ovary. In addition, a number of disease-related proteins were identified in this protein map, including some cancer- and polycystic ovarian syndrome-related proteins. Two proteins with phosphorylation were verified by Western blot analysis. Comparison of protein abundance between follicular and luteal stages produced seven protein spots that had been identified in our database. This study provides a preliminary reference map of normal human ovary that will form a basis for comparative studies on normal and pathological conditions of the human ovary and may serve as a potential tool for clinical diagnosis, therapeutics, and prognosis.

Abstract
This paper describes a mathematical approach applied for decoding the complex signal of two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis maps of protein mixtures. The method is helpful in extracting analytical information since separation of all the proteins present in the sample is still far from being achieved and co-migrating proteins are generally present in the same spot. The simplified method described is based on the study of the 2-D autocovariance function (2D-ACVF) computed on an experimental digitized map. The first part of the 2D-ACVF allows for the estimation of the number of proteins present in the sample (2D-ACVF computed at the origin) and of the separation performance (mean spot size). Moreover, the 2D-ACVF plot is a powerful tool in identifying order in the spot position, and singling it out from the complex separation pattern. This method was validated on synthetic maps obtained by computer simulation to describe 2-D PAGE real maps and reference maps retrieved from the SWISS-2DPAGE database. The results obtained are discussed by focusing on specific information relevant in proteomics: sample complexity, separation performance, and identification of spot trains related to post-translational modifications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We review here modern aspects of proteomic analysis, as displayed via orthogonal mass/charge analysis (isoelectric focusing in the first dimension, followed by sodium dodecyl sulphate electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels, SDS-PAGE, at right angles, in the second dimension). METHODS This technique is capable of displaying a few thousand polypeptide chains, characterized by a single pI and M(r) value as coordinates, and recognized via elution, digestion and mass spectrometry analysis. Although, up to the present, this technique has been used mostly for advanced research, with no immediate applications in the clinical chemistry laboratory, there are hints that such applications will soon become a reality. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS In the field of cancer research, it is here shown that stathmin (Op18) becomes heavily phosphorylated in cancerous mantle cell lymphomas and that the progression of the disease can be followed by the progression of phosphorylation of Op18 and by the appearance of additional phosphorylated spots. Also chemoresistance of different tumors has been evaluated via 2D-PAGE through quantitative, differential proteomics: among up- and down-regulated proteins in a human cervix squamous cell carcinoma cell line (A431), rendered resistant to cisplatin, one particular protein was found to appear in large quantities by de novo synthesis: 14-3-3, a protein known to impart resistance to apoptosis to cells. In the field of brain disorders, we could set up an easy test for detecting pathological prions in sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD), by simply searching for those pathological forms in the olfactory mucosa (up to this finding, diagnosis could only be confirmed post-mortem). We are currently working on a test for differentiating sCJD from all the other degenerative dementias. Upon 2D mapping of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and immunoblot analysis, we could identify a major spot (pI 4.8, M(r) 30 kDa) followed by some two-three minor spots (pIs 5.0-6.0, same M(r) value) of the same 14-3-3 anti-apoptotic protein involved in chemoresistance. By this test, sCJD could be differentiated from all the other degenerative dementias, which are 14-3-3 negative (in sCJD, the rapid and massive brain cell damage releases large quantities of 14-3-3 in the cerebrospinal fluid). Another protein that appears very promising as a marker for sCJD is cystatin C, that is strongly up-regulated in this pathology. Human sera should also be mined for discovery of many more markers for disease. Up to the present, no one could be found, but this was due to the presence of several major proteins, obscuring all rare ones. Via several immuno-subtraction steps, followed by ion exchange and size exclusion chromatography, one can now detect proteins and peptides present in sera at levels below 10 ng/mL, highlighting the road to discovery of novel markers of disease. Another technique that could revolutionize biomarker discovery in biological fluids consists in the use of combinatorial beads to reduce the dynamic range. They consist in a library of combinatorial ligands coupled to small beads. Such a library comprises hexameric ligands composed of amino acids, resulting in millions different structures. When these beads are impregnated with complex proteomes (e.g., human sera, CSF, urines) of widely differing protein compositions, they are able to significantly reduce the concentration differences, thus greatly enhancing the possibility of evidencing low-abundance species.
