Mol Cell Proteomics 2023; 22:100497. [PMID: 36642223 PMCID: PMC9971285 DOI: 10.1016/j.mcpro.2023.100497] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 12/17/2022] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
New protein synthesis is regulated both at the level of mRNA transcription and translation. RNA-Seq is effective at measuring levels of mRNA expression, but techniques to monitor mRNA translation are much more limited. Previously, we reported results from O-propargyl-puromycin (OPP) labeling of proteins undergoing active translation in a 2-h time frame, followed by biotinylation using click chemistry, affinity purification, and on-bead digestion to identify nascent proteins by mass spectrometry (OPP-ID). As with any on-bead digestion protocol, the problem of nonspecific binders complicated the rigorous categorization of nascent proteins by OPP-ID. Here, we incorporate a chemically cleavable linker, Dde biotin-azide, into the protocol (OPP-IDCL) to provide specific release of modified proteins from the streptavidin beads. Following capture, the Dde moiety is readily cleaved with 2% hydrazine, releasing nascent polypeptides bearing OPP plus a residual C3H8N4 tag. When results are compared side by side with the original OPP-ID method, change to a cleavable linker led to a dramatic reduction in the number of background proteins detected in controls and a concomitant increase in the number of proteins that could be characterized as newly synthesized. We evaluated the method's ability to detect nascent proteins at various submilligram protein input levels and showed that, when starting with only 100 μg of protein, ∼1500 nascent proteins could be identified with low background. Upon treatment of K562 cells with MLN128, a potent inhibitor of the mammalian target of rapamycin, prior to OPP treatment, we identified 1915 nascent proteins, the majority of which were downregulated upon inhibitor treatment. Repressed proteins with log2 FC <-1 revealed a complex network of functionally interacting proteins, with the largest cluster associated with translational initiation. Overall, incorporation of the Dde biotin-azide cleavable linker into our protocol has increased the depth and accuracy of profiling of nascent protein networks.

Enhanced protein-protein interaction network construction promoted by in vivo cross-linking with acid-cleavable click-chemistry enrichment. Front Chem 2022; 10:994572.

Abstract
Chemical cross-linking coupled with mass spectrometry has emerged as a powerful strategy which enables global profiling of protein interactome with direct interaction interfaces in complex biological systems. The alkyne-tagged enrichable cross-linkers are preferred to improve the coverage of low-abundance cross-linked peptides, combined with click chemistry for biotin conjugation to allow the cross-linked peptide enrichment. However, a systematic evaluation on the efficiency of click approaches (protein-based or peptide-based) and diverse cleavable click-chemistry ligands (acid, reduction, and photo) for cross-linked peptide enrichment and release is lacking. Herein, together with in vivo chemical cross-linking by alkyne-tagged cross-linkers, we explored the click-chemistry-based enrichment approaches on protein and peptide levels with three cleavable click-chemistry ligands, respectively. By comparison, the approach of protein-based click-chemistry conjugation with acid-cleavable tags was demonstrated to permit the most cross-linked peptide identification. The advancement of this strategy enhanced the proteome-wide cross-linking analysis, constructing a 5,518-protein-protein-interaction network among 1,871 proteins with widely abundant distribution in cells. Therefore, all these results demonstrated the guideline value of our work for efficient cross-linked peptide enrichment, thus facilitating the in-depth profiling of protein interactome for functional analysis.

Abstract
Chemical crosslinking coupled with mass spectrometry (CXMS) has emerged as a powerful technique to obtain the dynamic conformations and interaction interfaces of protein complexes. Limited by the poor cell membrane permeability, chemical reactivity, and biocompatibility of crosslinkers, in vivo crosslinking to capture the dynamics of protein complexes with finer temporal resolution and higher coverage is attractive but challenging. In this work, a trifunctional crosslinker bis(succinimidyl) with propargyl tag (BSP), involving compact size, proper amphipathy, and enrichment capacity, was developed to enable better cell membrane permeability and efficient crosslinking in 5 min without obvious cellular interference. Followed by a two-step enrichment method based on click chemistry at the peptide level, 13,098 crosslinked peptides (5068 inter-crosslinked peptides and 8030 intra-crosslinked peptides) were identified under the data threshold of peptide-spectrum matches (PSMs) ≥2 on the basic of the FDR control of 1%, which was the most comprehensive dataset for homo species cells by a non-cleavable crosslinker. Besides, the interactome network comprising 1519 proteins connected by 2913 interaction edges in various intracellular compartments, as well as 80S ribosome structural dynamics, were characterized, showing the great potential of our in vivo crosslinking approach in minutes. All these results demonstrated that our developed BSP could provide a valuable toolkit for the in-depth in vivo analysis of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) and protein architectures with finer temporal resolution.

Abstract
Drug delivery systems are technologies designed for the targeted delivery and controlled release of medicinal agents. Among the materials employed as drug delivery systems, dendrimers have gained increasing interest in recent years because of their properties and structural characteristics. The use of dendrimer-nanocarrier formulations enhances the safety and bioavailability, increases the solubility in water, improves stability and pharmacokinetic profile, and enables efficient delivery of the target drug to a specific site. However, the synthesis of dendritic architectures through convergent or divergent methods has drawbacks and limitations that disrupt aspects related to design and construction and consequently slow down the transfer from academia to industry. In that sense, the implementation of click chemistry has been received increasing attention in the last years, because offers new efficient approaches to obtain dendritic species in good yields and higher monodispersity. This review focuses on recent strategies for building dendrimer drug delivery systems using click reactions from 2015 to early 2021. The dendritic structures showed in this review are based on β-cyclodextrins (β-CD), poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM), dendritic poly (lysine) (PLLD), dimethylolpropionic acid (bis-MPA), phosphoramidate (PAD), and poly(propargyl alcohol-4-mercaptobutyric (PPMA).

A highly sensitive and dual-readout immunoassay for norfloxacin in milk based on QDs-FM@ALP-SA and click chemistry. Talanta 2021; 234:122703. [PMID: 34364497 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2021.122703] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2021] [Revised: 07/01/2021] [Accepted: 07/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
A dual-readout immunoassay based on QDs-FM@ALP-SA and click chemistry was developed for quick and sensitive detection of norfloxacin (NOR), which is an important fluoroquinolone antibiotic. In the system, the NOR-biotin conjugate (NOR-Biotin) was synthesized by click chemistry for signal transformation, and alkaline phosphatase-labeled streptavidin (ALP-SA) was attached to quantum dot fluorescence microspheres (QDs-FM) by an activated ester method to form QDs-FM@ALP-SA for signal amplification. Here, QDs-FM was a dual-functional carrier: it was used not only as a chemiluminescence signal amplification carrier but also as a fluorescent signal due to its fluorescence character. The NOR antibody was coated on a 96-well chemiluminescence microtiter plate, and NOR-Biotin was bound to the antibody specifically. Then, QDs-FM@ALP-SA was combined with NOR-Biotin to develop a direct competition chemiluminescence/fluorescence immunoassay (dc-CLIA/FIA). The IC50 values were 0.345 and 1.206 ng/mL for dc-CLIA/FIA, respectively. The linear range was 0.013-12.48 ng/mL and 0.042-39.86 ng/mL, respectively. The recovery from the standard fortified blank milk samples was in the range of 86.44%-101.3%. Therefore, this method could be a useful tool for routine screening of NOR residues in milk.
