Abstract
Proteomics is the large scale study of protein structure and function from biological systems through protein identification and quantification. "Shotgun proteomics" or "bottom-up proteomics" is the prevailing strategy, in which proteins are hydrolyzed into peptides that are analyzed by mass spectrometry. Proteomics studies can be applied to diverse studies ranging from simple protein identification to studies of proteoforms, protein-protein interactions, protein structural alterations, absolute and relative protein quantification, post-translational modifications, and protein stability. To enable this range of different experiments, there are diverse strategies for proteome analysis. The nuances of how proteomic workflows differ may be challenging to understand for new practitioners. Here, we provide a comprehensive overview of different proteomics methods. We cover from biochemistry basics and protein extraction to biological interpretation and orthogonal validation. We expect this Review will serve as a handbook for researchers who are new to the field of bottom-up proteomics.

Cerebrospinal fluid proteomic signatures are associated with symptom severity of first-episode psychosis. J Psychiatr Res 2024; 171:306-315. [PMID: 38340697 PMCID: PMC10995989 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpsychires.2024.02.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
Apart from their diagnostic, monitoring, or prognostic utility in clinical settings, molecular biomarkers may be instrumental in understanding the pathophysiology of psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia. Using untargeted metabolomics, we recently identified eight cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) metabolites unique to first-episode psychosis (FEP) subjects compared to healthy controls (HC). In this study, we sought to investigate the CSF proteomic signatures associated with FEP. We employed 16-plex tandem mass tag (TMT) mass spectrometry (MS) to examine the relative protein abundance in CSF samples of 15 individuals diagnosed with FEP and 15 age-and-sex-matched healthy controls (HC). Multiple linear regression model (MLRM) identified 16 differentially abundant CSF proteins between FEP and HC at p < 0.01. Among them, the two most significant CSF proteins were collagen alpha-2 (IV) chain (COL4A2: standard mean difference [SMD] = -1.12, p = 1.64 × 10-4) and neuron-derived neurotrophic factor (NDNF: SMD = -1.03, p = 4.52 × 10-4) both of which were down-regulated in FEP subjects compared to HC. We also identified several potential CSF proteins associated with the pathophysiology and the symptom profile and severity in FEP subjects, including COL4A2, NDNF, hornerin (HRNR), contactin-6 (CNTN6), voltage-dependent calcium channel subunit alpha-2/delta-3 (CACNA2D3), tropomyosin alpha-3 chain (TPM3 and TPM4). Moreover, several protein signatures were associated with cognitive performance. Although the results need replication, our exploratory study suggests that CSF protein signatures can be used to increase the understanding of the pathophysiology of psychosis.

Abstract
The identification of thousands of proteins and their relative levels of expression has furthered understanding of biological processes and disease and stimulated new systems biology hypotheses. Quantitative proteomics workflows that rely on analytical assays such as mass spectrometry have facilitated high-throughput measurements of proteins partially due to multiplexing. Multiplexing allows proteome differences across multiple samples to be measured simultaneously, resulting in more accurate quantitation, increased statistical robustness, reduced analysis times, and lower experimental costs. The number of samples that can be multiplexed has evolved from as few as two to more than 50, with studies involving more than 10 samples being denoted as enhanced multiplexing or hyperplexing. In this review, we give an update on emerging multiplexing proteomics techniques and highlight advantages and limitations for enhanced multiplexing strategies.

Abstract
Maintenance of cellular homeostasis through regulated degradation of proteins and organelles is a defining feature of autophagy. This process itself is tightly regulated in a series of well-defined biochemical reactions governed largely by the highly conserved ATG protein family. Given its crucial role in regulating protein levels under both basal and stress conditions such as starvation and infection, genetic or pharmacological perturbation of autophagy results in massive changes in the cellular proteome and impacts nearly every biological process. Therefore, studying autophagy perturbations at a global scale assumes prime importance. In recent years, quantitative mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics has emerged as a powerful approach to explore biological processes through global proteome quantification analysis. Tandem mass tag (TMT)-based MS proteomics is one such robust quantitative technique that can examine relative protein abundances in multiple samples (parallel multiplexing). Investigating autophagy through TMT-based MS approach can give great insights into autophagy-regulated biological processes, protein-protein interaction networks, spatiotemporal protein dynamics, and identification of new autophagy substrates. This chapter provides a detailed protocol for studying the impact of a dysfunctional autophagy pathway on the cellular proteome and pathways in a healthy vs. disease (virus infection) condition using a 16-plex TMT-based quantitative proteomics approach. We also provide a pipeline on data processing and analysis using available web-based tools.

Abstract
The biological complexity cannot be captured by genes or proteins alone. The protein posttranslational modifications (PTMs) impart functional diversity to the proteome and regulate protein structure, activity, localization and interactions. Their dynamics drive cellular signaling, growth and development while their dysregulation causes many diseases. Mass spectrometry based quantitative profiling of PTMs and bioinformatics analysis tools allow systems level insights into their network architecture. High-resolution profiling of PTM networks will advance disease understanding and precision medicine. It can accelerate the discovery of biomarkers and drug targets. This requires better tools for unbiased, high-throughput and accurate PTM identification, site localization and automated annotation on a systems level.

Abstract
MS-based proteomics is expanding its role as a routine tool for biological discovery. Nevertheless, the task of accurately and precisely quantifying thousands of analytes in a single experiment remains challenging. In this study, the diagnostic accuracy of three popular data-dependent methods for protein relative quantification (label-free [LF], dimethyl labelling [DML] and tandem mass tags [TMT]) has been assessed using a mixed species proteome (three species) and five experimental replicates per condition. Data were produced using a quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometer and analysed using a single platform (the MaxQuant/Perseus software suite). The whole comparative analysis was repeated three times over a period of 6 months, in order to assess the consistency of the reported findings. As expected, label-based methods reproducibly provided a lower false positives rate, whereas TMT and LF performed similarly, and significantly better than DML, in terms of proteome coverage using the same instrument time. Although parameters like proteome coverage and precision were consistent in between replicates, other parameters like sensitivity, intended as the capacity of correctly classifying true positives (regulated proteins), were found to be less reproducible, especially at challenging fold-changes (1.5). Collectively, data suggest that an increased interest in data reproducibility would be desirable in the quantitative proteomics field.
