Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a highly progressive neuromuscular disorder caused by primary abnormalities in the Dmd gene encoding the membrane cytoskeletal protein dystrophin. Dystrophinopathies are multi-systems disorders that are characterized by severe skeletal muscle wasting, with loss of independent ambulation in the early teenage years, followed by cardio-respiratory complications and premature death. Nonprogressive cognitive impairments are estimated to affect approximately one-third of dystrophic children. To identify the molecular mechanisms behind the impaired brain function in dystrophinopathy, liquid chromatography-based mass spectrometry offers an unbiased and technology-driven approach. In this chapter, we give a detailed description of a label-free mass spectrometric method to investigate proteome-wide changes in the dystrophin-deficient brain from a genetic mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Abstract
The epidemic expansion of diabetes is a major concern of public health. A promising treatment is the transplantation of islets of Langerhans isolated from the whole pancreas but the yields of islets isolation and the rates of successful engraftments still have to be improved to make this therapy effective. The extracellular matrix (ECM) of the pancreatic tissue is partially lost during the isolation process and a comprehensive knowledge of the pancreatic ECM composition and organization could identify targets to improve islets isolation and transplantation or highlight new therapeutics for pancreatic diseases. The organization, composition and three-dimensional architecture of the pancreatic ECM were analysed in mouse and pig by three different techniques. Laminin α-4 and β-2 chains are localized by immunohistochemistry in the exocrine tissue and inside islets of mouse pancreas but not around islets that are surrounded by an ECM made of collagen type IV and type V. Collagen type I, III, and VI were identified by proteomics as specific constituents of the pig pancreatic ECM along with the low-abundance isoforms α3(IV) α4(IV) α5(IV) and α1(V) α2(V) α3(V) of collagen type IV and type V respectively. The three-dimensional ECM architecture is analysed on decellularized mouse pancreas by scanning electron microscopy and is organized in honeycomb structures made of thin ECM fibers assembled in thicker bundles. The combination of immunohistochemistry, proteomics and scanning electron microscopy gives complementary perspective on the pancreatic ECM composition and organization. It represents a valuable toolbox for deeper investigations of ECMs and proposes clues in tissue engineering of the pancreas.

Abstract
Ascorbate is as a potent antioxidant in vivo protecting the organism against oxidative stress. In this process, ascorbate is oxidized in two steps to dehydroascorbate (DHA), which if not efficiently reduced back to ascorbate decomposes irreversibly to a complex mixture of products. We demonstrate that a component of this mixture specifically reacts with the thiol group of cysteine residues at physiological pH to give a protein adduct involving the addition of a 5-carbon fragment of DHA (+112 Da). Incubations of glutaredoxin-1 expressed in Escherichia coli and dehydroascorbate revealed abundant adducts of +112, +224 and +336 Da due to the addition of one, two and three conjugation products of DHA, respectively. ESI-MS of carbamidomethylated glutaredoxin-1 before incubation with DHA, deuterium exchange together with tandem mass spectrometry analysis and LC-ESIMS/MS of modified peptides confirmed structure and sites of modification in the protein. Modification of protein thiols by a DHA-derived product can be involved in oxidative stress-mediated cellular toxicity.

Abstract
We describe a 96-well plate compatible membrane-based proteomic sample processing method, which enables the complete processing of 96 samples (or multiples thereof) within a single workday. This method uses a large-pore hydrophobic PVDF membrane that efficiently adsorbs proteins, resulting in fast liquid transfer through the membrane and significantly reduced sample processing times. Low liquid transfer speeds have prevented the useful 96-well plate implementation of FASP as a widely used membrane-based proteomic sample processing method. We validated our approach on whole-cell lysate and urine and cerebrospinal fluid as clinically relevant body fluids. Without compromising peptide and protein identification, our method uses a vacuum manifold and circumvents the need for digest desalting, making our processing method compatible with standard liquid handling robots. In summary, our new method maintains the strengths of FASP and simultaneously overcomes one of the major limitations of FASP without compromising protein identification and quantification.

Abstract
Hydrogen/deuterium exchange monitored by mass spectrometry is an important non-perturbing tool to study protein structure and protein–protein interactions. However, water in the reversed-phase liquid chromatography mobile phase leads to back-exchange of D for H during chromatographic separation of proteolytic peptides following H/D exchange, resulting in incorrect identification of fast-exchanging hydrogens as unexchanged hydrogens. Previously, fast high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and supercritical fluid chromatography have been shown to decrease back-exchange. Here, we show that replacement of up to 40% of the water in the LC mobile phase by the modifiers, dimethylformamide (DMF) and N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) (i.e., polar organic modifiers that lack rapid exchanging hydrogens), significantly reduces back-exchange. On-line LC micro-ESI FT-ICR MS resolves overlapped proteolytic peptide isotopic distributions, allowing for quantitative determination of the extent of back-exchange. The DMF modified solvent composition also improves chromatographic separation while reducing back-exchange relative to conventional solvent.

Abstract
Investigation of the transcription factor (TF) proteome presents challenges including the large number of low abundance and post-translationally modified proteins involved. Specialized purification and analysis methods have been developed over the last decades which facilitate the study of the TF proteome and these are reviewed here. Generally applicable proteomics methods that have been successfully applied are also discussed. TFs are selectively purified by affinity techniques using the DNA response element (RE) as the basis for highly specific binding, and several agents have been discovered that either enhance binding or diminish non-specific binding. One such affinity method called "trapping" enables purification of TFs bound to nM concentrations and recovery of TF complexes in a highly purified state. The electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) is the most important assay of TFs because it provides both measures of the affinity and amount of the TF present. Southwestern (SW) blotting and DNA-protein crosslinking (DPC) allow in vitro estimates of DNA-binding-protein mass, while chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) allows confirmation of promoter binding in vivo. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis methods (2-DE), and 3-DE methods which combines EMSA with 2-DE, allow further resolution of TFs. The synergy of highly selective purification and analytical strategies has led to an explosion of knowledge about the TF proteome and the proteomes of other DNA- and RNA-binding proteins.

Abstract
Two-dimensional Southwestern blotting (2D-SW) described here combines several steps. Proteins are separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and transferred to nitrocellulose (NC) or polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane. The blotted proteins are then partially renatured and probed with a specific radiolabeled oligonucleotide for Southwestern blotting (SW) analysis. The detected proteins are then processed by on-blot digestion and identified by LC-MS/MS analysis. A transcription factor, bound by a specific radiolabeled element, is thus characterized without aligning with protein spots on a gel. In this study, we systematically optimize conditions for 2D-SW and on-blot digestion. By quantifying the SW signal using a scintillation counter, the optimal conditions for SW were determined to be PVDF membrane, 0.5% PVP40 for membrane blocking, serial dilution of guanidine HCl for denaturing and renaturing proteins on the blot, and an SDS stripping buffer to remove radiation from the blot. By the quantification of the peptide yields using nano-ESI-MS analysis, the optimized conditions for on-blot digestions were found to be 0.5% Zwittergent 3-16 and 30% acetonitrile in trypsin digestion buffer. With the use of the optimized 2D-SW technique and on-blot digestion combined with HPLC-nano-ESI-MS/MS, a GFP-C/EBP model protein was successfully characterized from a bacterial extract, and native C/EBP beta was identified from 100 microg of HEK293 nuclear extract without any previous purification.

Abstract
A panorama of sample preparation methods has been composed from 481 references, with a highlight of some promising methods fast developed during recent years and a somewhat brief introduction on most of the well-developed methods. All the samples were commonly referred to molecular composition, being extendable to particles including cells but not to organs, tissues and larger bodies. Some criteria to evaluate or validate a sample preparation method were proposed for reference. Strategy for integration of several methods to prepare complicated protein samples for proteomic studies was illustrated and discussed.

We describe a new approach for the identification and characterization by mass spectrometry of proteins that have been electroblotted onto nitrocellulose. Using this method (Blotting and Removal of Nitrocellulose (BARN)), proteins can be analyzed either as intact proteins for molecular weight determination or as peptides generated by on-membrane proteolysis. Acetone is used to dissolve the nitrocellulose and to precipitate the adsorbed proteins/peptides, thus removing the nitrocellulose which can interfere with MS analysis. This method offers improved protein coverage, especially for membrane proteins, such as uroplakins, because the extraction step after in-gel digestion is avoided. Moreover, removal of nitrocellulose from the sample solution allows sample analysis by both MALDI- and (LC) ESI-based mass spectrometers. Finally, we demonstrate the utility of BARN for the direct identification of soluble and membrane proteins after Western blotting, obtaining comparable or better results than with in-gel digestion.

Abstract
Sample preparation is a fundamental step in the proteomics workflow. However, it is not easy to find compiled information updating this subject. In this paper, the strategies and protocols for protein extraction and identification, following either classical or second generation proteomics methodologies, are reviewed. Procedures for: tissue disruption, cell lysis, sample pre-fractionation, protein separation by 2-DE, protein digestion, mass spectrometry analysis, multidimensional peptide separations and quantification of protein expression level are described.

Abstract
We have identified tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins on membrane from A-431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells by using detection with anti-phosphotyrosine antibody followed by PMF analysis. In there, on-membrane digestion for these protein spots was carried out on microscale region using chemical inkjet technology and the resulting tryptic digests were directly analyzed by MALDI-TOF MS. Proteins identified by a database search included phosphoproteins that are known to be markedly phosphorylated on tyrosine sites after the cells are treated with epidermal growth factor (EGF). This procedure is a rapid and easily handled approach that enables both detection and identification of phosphoproteins on a single blot membrane.
