Nickerson JL, Gagnon H, Wentzell PD, Doucette AA. Assessing the precision of a detergent-assisted cartridge precipitation workflow for non-targeted quantitative proteomics. Proteomics 2024; 24:e2300339. [PMID: 38299459 DOI: 10.1002/pmic.202300339] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 01/12/2024] [Indexed: 02/02/2024]
Abstract
Detergent-based workflows incorporating sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) necessitate additional steps for detergent removal ahead of mass spectrometry (MS). These steps may lead to variable protein recovery, inconsistent enzyme digestion efficiency, and unreliable MS signals. To validate a detergent-based workflow for quantitative proteomics, we herein evaluate the precision of a bottom-up sample preparation strategy incorporating cartridge-based protein precipitation with organic solvent to deplete SDS. The variance of data-independent acquisition (SWATH-MS) data was isolated from sample preparation error by modelling the variance as a function of peptide signal intensity. Our SDS-assisted cartridge workflow yield a coefficient of variance (CV) of 13%-14%. By comparison, conventional (detergent-free) in-solution digestion increased the CV to 50%; in-gel digestion provided lower CVs between 14% and 20%. By filtering peptides predicting to display lower precision, we further enhance the validity of data in global comparative proteomics. These results demonstrate the detergent-based precipitation workflow is a reliable approach for in depth, label-free quantitative proteome analysis.

He Q, Sze SK, Ng KS, Koh CG. Paxillin interactome identified by SILAC and label-free approaches coupled to TurboID sheds light on the compositions of focal adhesions in mouse embryonic stem cells. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2023; 680:73-85. [PMID: 37725837 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2023.09.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2023] [Revised: 08/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/08/2023] [Indexed: 09/21/2023]
Abstract
Self-renewal and differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) are greatly affected by the extracellular matrix (ECM) environment; the composition and stiffness of which are sensed by the cells via integrin-associated focal adhesions (FAs) which link the cells to the ECM. Although FAs have been studied extensively in differentiated cells, their composition and function in mESCs are not as well elucidated. To gain more detailed knowledge of the molecular compositions of FAs in mESCs, we adopted the proximity-dependent biotinylation (BioID) proteomics approach. Paxillin, a known FA protein (FAP), is fused to the promiscuous biotin ligase TurboID as bait. We employed both SILAC- and label-free (LF)-based quantitative proteomics to strengthen as well as complement individual approach. The mass spectrometry data derived from SILAC and LF identified 38 and 443 proteins, respectively, with 35 overlapping candidates. Fifteen of these shared proteins are known FAPs based on literature-curated adhesome and 7 others are among the reported "meta-adhesome", suggesting the components of FAs are largely conserved between mESCs and differentiated cells. Furthermore, the LF data set contained an additional 18 literature-curated FAPs. Notably, the overlapped proteomics data failed to detect LIM-domain proteins such as zyxin family proteins, which suggests that FAs in mESCs are less mature than differentiated cells. Using the LF approach, we are able to identify PDLIM7, a LIM-domain protein, as a FAP in mESCs. This study illustrates the effectiveness of TurboID in mESCs. Importantly, we found that application of both SILAC and LF methods in combination allowed us to analyze the TurboID proteomics data in an unbiased, stringent and yet comprehensive manner.

Bacterial Pyocyanin Inducible Keratin 6A Accelerates Closure of Epithelial Defect under Conditions of Mitochondrial Dysfunction. J Invest Dermatol 2023; 143:2052-2064.e5.

Abstract
Repair of epithelial defect is complicated by infection and related metabolites. Pyocyanin (PYO) is one such metabolite that is secreted during Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection. Keratinocyte (KC) migration is required for the closure of skin epithelial defects. This work sought to understand PYO-KC interaction and its significance in tissue repair. Stable Isotope Labeling by Amino acids in Cell culture proteomics identified mitochondrial dysfunction as the top pathway responsive to PYO exposure in human KCs. Consistently, functional studies showed mitochondrial stress, depletion of reducing equivalents, and adenosine triphosphate. Strikingly, despite all stated earlier, PYO markedly accelerated KC migration. Investigation of underlying mechanisms revealed, to our knowledge, a previously unreported function of keratin 6A in KCs. Keratin 6A was PYO inducible and accelerated closure of epithelial defect. Acceleration of closure was associated with poor quality healing, including compromised expression of apical junction proteins. This work recognizes keratin 6A for its role in enhancing KC migration under conditions of threat posed by PYO. Qualitatively deficient junctional proteins under conditions of defensive acceleration of KC migration explain why an infected wound close with deficient skin barrier function as previously reported.

Comparison of SPEED, S-Trap, and In-Solution-Based Sample Preparation Methods for Mass Spectrometry in Kidney Tissue and Plasma. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24076290. [PMID: 37047281 PMCID: PMC10094439 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24076290] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2023] [Revised: 03/07/2023] [Accepted: 03/11/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Mass spectrometry is a powerful technique for investigating renal pathologies and identifying biomarkers, and efficient protein extraction from kidney tissue is essential for bottom-up proteomic analyses. Detergent-based strategies aid cell lysis and protein solubilization but are poorly compatible with downstream protein digestion and liquid chromatography-coupled mass spectrometry, requiring additional purification and buffer-exchange steps. This study compares two well-established detergent-based methods for protein extraction (in-solution sodium deoxycholate (SDC); suspension trapping (S-Trap)) with the recently developed sample preparation by easy extraction and digestion (SPEED) method, which uses strong acid for denaturation. We compared the quantitative performance of each method using label-free mass spectrometry in both sheep kidney cortical tissue and plasma. In kidney tissue, SPEED quantified the most unique proteins (SPEED 1250; S-Trap 1202; SDC 1197). In plasma, S-Trap produced the most unique protein quantifications (S-Trap 150; SDC 148; SPEED 137). Protein quantifications were reproducible across biological replicates in both tissue (R2 = 0.85–0.90) and plasma (SPEED R2 = 0.84; SDC R2 = 0.76, S-Trap R2 = 0.65). Our data suggest SPEED as the optimal method for proteomic preparation in kidney tissue and S-Trap or SPEED as the optimal method for plasma, depending on whether a higher number of protein quantifications or greater reproducibility is desired.

Abstract
Proteomics continues to forge significant strides in the discovery of essential biological processes, uncovering valuable information on the identity, global protein abundance, protein modifications, proteoform levels, and signal transduction pathways. Cancer is a complicated and heterogeneous disease, and the onset and progression involve multiple dysregulated proteoforms and their downstream signaling pathways. These are modulated by various factors such as molecular, genetic, tissue, cellular, ethnic/racial, socioeconomic status, environmental, and demographic differences that vary with time. The knowledge of cancer has improved the treatment and clinical management; however, the survival rates have not increased significantly, and cancer remains a major cause of mortality. Oncoproteomics studies help to develop and validate proteomics technologies for routine application in clinical laboratories for (1) diagnostic and prognostic categorization of cancer, (2) real-time monitoring of treatment, (3) assessing drug efficacy and toxicity, (4) therapeutic modulations based on the changes with prognosis and drug resistance, and (5) personalized medication. Investigation of tumor-specific proteomic profiles in conjunction with healthy controls provides crucial information in mechanistic studies on tumorigenesis, metastasis, and drug resistance. This review provides an overview of proteomics technologies that assist the discovery of novel drug targets, biomarkers for early detection, surveillance, prognosis, drug monitoring, and tailoring therapy to the cancer patient. The information gained from such technologies has drastically improved cancer research. We further provide exemplars from recent oncoproteomics applications in the discovery of biomarkers in various cancers, drug discovery, and clinical treatment. Overall, the future of oncoproteomics holds enormous potential for translating technologies from the bench to the bedside.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Asthma is the most common chronic respiratory disease and has been declared a global public health problem by the World Health Organization. Due to the high heterogeneity and complexity, asthma can be classified into different 'phenotypes' and it is still difficult to assess the phenotypes and stages of asthma by traditional methods. In recent years, mass spectrometry-based proteomics studies have made significant progress in sensitivity and accuracy of protein identification and quantitation, and are able to obtain differences in protein expression across samples, which provides new insights into the mechanisms and classification of asthma. AREAS COVERED In this article, we summarize research strategies in quantitative proteomics, including labeled, label-free and targeted quantification, and highlight the advantages and disadvantages of each. In addition, new applications of quantitative proteomics and the current status of research in asthma have also been discussed. In this study, online resources such as PubMed and Google Scholar were used for literature retrieval. EXPERT OPINION The application of quantitative proteomics in asthma has an important role in identifying asthma subphenotypes, revealing potential pathogenesis and therapeutic targets. But the proteomic studies on asthma are not sufficient, as most of them are in the phase of biomarker discovery.

Abstract
The aetiology of congenital hydrocephalus (cHC) has yet to be resolved. cHC manifests late in rodent gestation, and by 18-22 weeks in human fetuses, coinciding with the start of the major phase of cerebral cortex development. Previously we found that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) accumulation is associated with compositional changes, folate metabolic impairment and consequential arrest in cortical development. Here, we report a proteomics study on hydrocephalic and normal rat CSF using LC-MSMS and a metabolic pathway analysis to determine the major changes in metabolic and signalling pathways. Non-targeted analysis revealed a proteome transformation across embryonic days 17-20, with the largest changes between day 19 and 20. This provides evidence for a physiological shift in CSF composition and identifies some of the molecular mechanisms unleashed during the onset of cHC. Top molecular regulators that may control the shift in the CSF metabolic signature are also predicted, with potential key biomarkers proposed for early detection of these changes that might be used to develop targeted early therapies for this condition. This study confirms previous findings of a folate metabolic imbalance as well as providing more in depth metabolic analysis and understanding of cHC CSF.

Abstract
Proteomics has exposed a plethora of posttranslational modifications, but demonstrating functional relevance requires new approaches. Top-down proteomics of intact proteins has the potential to fully characterize protein modifications in terms of amount, site(s), and the order in which they are deposited on the protein; information that so far has been elusive to extract by shotgun proteomics. Data acquisition and analysis of intact multimodified proteins have however been a major challenge, in particular for positional isomers that carry the same number of modifications at different sites. Solutions were previously proposed to extract this information from fragmentation spectra, but these have so far mainly been limited to peptides and have entailed a large degree of manual interpretation. Here, we apply high-resolution Orbitrap fusion top-down analyses in combination with bioinformatics approaches to attempt to characterize multiple modified proteins and quantify positional isomers. Automated covalent fragment ion type definition, detection of mass precision and accuracy, and extensive use of replicate spectra increase sequence coverage and drive down false fragment assignments from 10% to 1.5%. Such improved performance in fragment assignment is key to localize and quantify modifications from fragment spectra. The method is tested by investigating positional isomers of Ubiquitin mixed in known concentrations, which results in quantification of high ratios at very low standard errors of the mean (<5%), as well as with synthetic phosphorylated peptides. Application to multiphosphorylated Bora provides an estimation of the so far unknown stoichiometry of the known set of phosphosites and uncovers new sites from hyperphosphorylated Bora. ETD fragmentation reveals the presence of positional isomers. For proteins up to 40 kDa these positional isomers can accurately be quantified. For in-vitro phosphorylated BoraNT a wide array of positional isomers is revealed. Use of Fragment ion FDR levels improve the quality of extracted stoichiometries.

Abstract
Exposure to excessive sound causes noise-induced hearing loss through complex mechanisms and represents a common and unmet neurological condition. We investigate how noise insults affect the cochlea with proteomics and functional assays. Quantitative proteomics reveals that exposure to loud noise causes proteotoxicity. We identify and confirm hundreds of proteins that accumulate, including cytoskeletal proteins, and several nodes of the proteostasis network. Transcriptomic analysis reveals that a subset of the genes encoding these proteins also increases acutely after noise exposure, including numerous proteasome subunits. Global cochlear protein ubiquitylation levels build up after exposure to excess noise, and we map numerous posttranslationally modified lysines residues. Several collagen proteins decrease in abundance, and Col9a1 specifically localizes to pillar cell heads. After two weeks of recovery, the cochlea selectively elevates the abundance of the protein synthesis machinery. We report that overstimulation of the auditory system drives a robust cochlear proteotoxic stress response.

Abstract
Stable heavy-isotope labeling is commonly used in quantitative proteomics. Several common techniques incorporate deuterium (2 H) as the heavy isotopic label using reductive amination with formaldehyde. Compared with alternatives, dimethyl labeling reagents are inexpensive and the labeling chemistry is simple and rapid. However, the substitution of hydrogen by deuterium can introduce subtle changes in peptides' polarities, leading to a shift in chromatographic retention times between deuterated and nondeuterated peptides that can lead to quantification deviations. Capillary zone electrophoresis has emerged as a complementary separation for ESI-MS-based proteomics, including targeted and quantitative approaches. The extent to which the deuterium isotope effect impacts CZE-based proteomics, which separates peptides based on their S/N ratios, has not been investigated. To address this issue, CZE was used to analyze dimethyl labeled E. coli tryptic digests in 100 min single-shot analyses. The median migration time shift was 0.1 s for light versus heavy labeled peptides, which is 2.5% of the peak width. For comparison, nUHPLC-ESI-MS/MS was used to analyze the same sample. In UPLC, deuterated peptides tended to elute earlier than nondeuterated peptides, with a retention shift of 3 s for light versus heavy labeled peptides, which is roughly half the peak width. This shift in separation time did not have a significant effect on quantitation for either method for equal mixing ratios of the light-intermediate-heavy isotope labeled samples.

Abstract
Exosomes are critical intercellular messengers released upon the fusion of multivesicular bodies with the cellular plasma membrane that deliver their cargo in the form of extracellular vesicles. Containing numerous nonrandomly packed functional proteins, lipids, and RNAs, exosomes are vital intercellular messengers that contribute to the physiologic processes of the healthy organism. During the post-genome era, exosome-oriented proteomics have garnered great interest. Since its establishment, mass spectrometry (MS) has been indispensable for the field of proteomics research and has advanced rapidly to interrogate biological samples at a higher resolution and sensitivity. Driven by new methodologies and more advanced instrumentation, MS-based approaches have revolutionized our understanding of protein biology. As the access to online proteomics database platforms has blossomed, experimental data processing occurs with more speed and accuracy. Here, we review recent advances in the technological progress of MS-based proteomics and several new detection strategies for MS-based proteomics research. We also summarize the use of integrated online databases for proteomics research in the era of big data. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Mass Spec Rev.

Abstract
Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) lead the formation of protein complexes that perform biochemical reactions that maintain the living state of the living cell. Although therapeutic drugs should influence the formation of protein complexes in addition to PPI network, the methodology analyzing such influences remain to be developed. Here, we demonstrate that a new approach combining HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography) for separating protein complexes, and the SILAC (stable isotope labeling using amino acids in cell culture) method for relative protein quantification, enable us to identify the protein complexes influenced by a drug. We applied this approach to the analysis of thalidomide action on HepG2 cells, assessed the identified proteins by clustering data analyses, and assigned 135 novel protein complexes affected by the drug. We propose that this approach is applicable to elucidating the mechanisms of actions of other therapeutic drugs on the PPI network, and the formation of protein complexes.

Abstract
Interferon-induced transmembrane proteins IFITM1 and IFITM3 (IFITM1/3) play a role in both RNA viral restriction and in human cancer progression. Using immunohistochemical staining of FFPE tissue, we identified subgroups of cervical cancer patients where IFITM1/3 protein expression is inversely related to metastasis. Guide RNA-CAS9 methods were used to develop an isogenic IFITM1/IFITM3 double null cervical cancer model in order to define dominant pathways triggered by presence or absence of IFITM1/3 signalling. A pulse SILAC methodology identified IRF1, HLA-B, and ISG15 as the most dominating IFNγ inducible proteins whose synthesis was attenuated in the IFITM1/IFITM3 double-null cells. Conversely, SWATH-IP mass spectrometry of ectopically expressed SBP-tagged IFITM1 identified ISG15 and HLA-B as dominant co-associated proteins. ISG15ylation was attenuated in IFNγ treated IFITM1/IFITM3 double-null cells. Proximity ligation assays indicated that HLA-B can interact with IFITM1/3 proteins in parental SiHa cells. Cell surface expression of HLA-B was attenuated in IFNγ treated IFITM1/IFITM3 double-null cells. SWATH-MS proteomic screens in cells treated with IFITM1-targeted siRNA cells resulted in the attenuation of an interferon regulated protein subpopulation including MHC Class I molecules as well as IFITM3, STAT1, B2M, and ISG15. These data have implications for the function of IFITM1/3 in mediating IFNγ stimulated protein synthesis including ISG15ylation and MHC Class I production in cancer cells. The data together suggest that pro-metastatic growth associated with IFITM1/3 negative cervical cancers relates to attenuated expression of MHC Class I molecules that would support tumor immune escape. IFITM1/3 expression in cervical cancers inversely correlates with metastases. Isogenic IFITM1 and IFITM3 null cervical cancer cells were developed. Pulse SILAC approaches were used to define IFITM1/3 dependent signalling pathways. The major IFITM1/3-interferon-γ dependent effectors are HLA-B and ISG15. IFITM1/3 loss would be predicted to reduce HLA expression and ISG15ylation in vivo.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Measuring the immediate changes in cells that arise from changing environmental conditions is crucial to understanding the underlying mechanisms involved. These changes can be measured with metabolic stable isotope fully labeled proteomes, but requires looking for changes in the midst of a large background. In addition, labeling efficiency can be an issue in primary and fully differentiated cells. Area covered: Azidohomoalanine (AHA), an analog of methionine, can be accepted by cellular translational machinery and incorporated into newly synthesized proteins (NSPs). AHA-NSPs can be coupled to biotin via CuAAC-mediated click-chemistry and enriched using avidin-based affinity purification. Thus, AHA-containing proteins or peptides can be enriched and efficiently separated from the whole proteome. In this review, we describe the development of mass spectrometry (MS) based AHA strategies and discuss their potential to measure proteins involved in immune response, secretome, gut microbiome, and proteostasis as well as their potential for clinical uses. Expert commentary: AHA strategies have been used to identify synthesis activity and to compare two biological conditions in various biological model organisms. In combination with instrument development, improved sample preparation and fractionation strategies, MS-based AHA strategies have the potential for broad application, and the methods should translate into clinical use.

Abstract
The human genome harbors just 20,000 genes suggesting that the variety of possible protein products per gene plays a significant role in generating functional diversity. In bottom-up proteomics peptides are mapped back to proteins and proteoforms to describe a proteome; however, accurate quantitation of proteoforms is challenging due to incomplete protein sequence coverage and mapping ambiguities. Here, we demonstrate that a new software tool called ProteinClusterQuant (PCQ) can be used to deduce the presence of proteoforms that would have otherwise been missed, as exemplified in a proteomic comparison of two fly species, Drosophilamelanogaster and D. virilis. PCQ was used to identify reduced levels of serine/threonine protein kinases PKN1 and PKN4 in CFBE41o− cells compared to HBE41o− cells and to elucidate that shorter proteoforms of full-length caspase-4 and ephrin B receptor are differentially expressed. Thus, PCQ extends current analyses in quantitative proteomics and facilitates finding differentially regulated proteins and proteoforms. An accurate quantitation of different proteoforms remains challenging due to incomplete protein sequence coverage in mass spectrometry datasets. Here the authors describe a method to facilitate the discovery of proteoforms that may otherwise not be considered due to incomplete protein coverage or ambiguities in mapping peptides back to proteins.

Abstract
Reference materials are vital to benchmarking the reproducibility of clinical tests and essential for monitoring laboratory performance for clinical proteomics. The reference material utilized for mass spectrometric analysis of the human proteome would ideally contain enough proteins to be suitably representative of the human proteome, as well as exhibit a stable protein composition in different batches of sample regeneration. Previously, The Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) utilized a PDX-derived comparative reference (CompRef) materials for the longitudinal assessment of proteomic performance; however, inherent drawbacks of PDX-derived material, including extended time needed to grow tumors and high level of expertise needed, have resulted in efforts to identify a new source of CompRef material. In this study, we examined the utility of using a panel of seven cancer cell lines, NCI-7 Cell Line Panel, as a reference material for mass spectrometric analysis of human proteome. Our results showed that not only is the NCI-7 material suitable for benchmarking laboratory sample preparation methods, but also NCI-7 sample generation is highly reproducible at both the global and phosphoprotein levels. In addition, the predicted genomic and experimental coverage of the NCI-7 proteome suggests the NCI-7 material may also have applications as a universal standard proteomic reference.

Abstract
Stable isotope labelling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) in conjunction with MS analysis is a sensitive and reliable technique for quantifying relative differences in protein abundance and posttranslational modifications between cell populations. We develop and utilise SILAC-MS workflows for quantitative proteomics in the fungal pathogen Candida albicans. Arginine metabolism provides important cues for escaping host defences during pathogenesis, which limits the use of auxotrophs in Candida research. Our strategy eliminates the need for engineering arginine auxotrophs for SILAC experiments and allows the use of ARG4 as selectable marker during strain construction. Cells that are auxotrophic for lysine are successfully labelled with both lysine and arginine stable isotopes. We find that prototrophic C. albicans preferentially uses exogenous arginine and down-regulates internal production, which allow it to achieve high incorporation rates. However, similar to other yeast, C. albicans is able to metabolise heavy arginine to heavy proline, which compromised the accuracy of protein quantification. A computational method is developed to correct for the incorporation of heavy proline. In addition, we utilise the developed SILAC labelling in C. albicans for the global quantitative proteomic analysis of a strain expressing a phosphatase-dead mutant Cdc14PD .

Abstract
Labeling peptides with isobaric tags is a popular strategy in quantitative bottom-up proteomics. In this study, we labeled six breast tumor cell lysates (1.34 mg proteins per channel) using 10-plex tandem mass tag reagents and analyzed the samples on a Q Exactive HF Quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometer. We identified a total of 8,706 proteins and 28,186 phosphopeptides, including 7,394 proteins and 23,739 phosphosites common to all channels. The majority of technical replicates correlated with a R2 ≥ 0.98, indicating minimum variability was introduced after labeling. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering of phosphopeptide data sets successfully classified the breast tumor samples into Her2 (epidermal growth factor receptor 2) positive and Her2 negative groups, whereas mRNA abundance did not. The tyrosine phosphorylation levels of receptor tyrosine kinases, phosphoinositide-3-kinase, protein kinase C delta, and Src homology 2, among others, were significantly higher in the Her2 positive than the Her2 negative group. Despite ratio compression in MS2-based experiments, we demonstrated the ratios calculated using an MS2 method are highly correlated (R2 > 0.65) with ratios obtained using MS3-based quantitation (using a Thermo Orbitrap Fusion mass spectrometer) with reduced ratio suppression. Given the deep coverage of global and phosphoproteomes, our data show that MS2-based quantitation using TMT can be successfully used for large-scale multiplexed quantitative proteomics.

Abstract
The ability to enumerate all of the proteins in a cell is quickly becoming a reality. Quantitative proteomics adds an extra dimension to proteome-wide discovery experiments by enabling differential measurements of protein concentrations, characterization of protein turnover, increased stringency of co-immunoprecipitation reactions, as well as many other intriguing applications. One of the most widely used techniques that enable relative protein quantitation is stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) (Ong et al., Mol Cell Proteomics 1(5):376-386, 2002). Over the past decade, SILAC has become the preferred approach for proteome-wide quantitation by mass spectrometry. This approach relies on the metabolic incorporation of isotopically enriched amino acids into the proteome of cells-the proteome of "light" (1H, 12C, 14N) cells can then be compared to "heavy" (2H, 13C, 15N) cells as the isotopically labeled proteins and peptides are easily distinguished in a mass spectrometer. Since cellular uptake and response to isotopically different amino acid(s) is naïve, it is without impact on cell physiology. We provide a detailed step-by-step procedure for performing SILAC-based experiment for proteome-wide quantitation in this chapter.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomic approaches have largely facilitated our systemic understanding of cellular processes and biological functions. Cutoffs in protein expression fold changes (FCs) are often arbitrarily determined in MS-based quantification with no demonstrable determination of small magnitude changes in protein expression. Therefore, many biological insights may remain veiled due to high FC cutoffs. Herein, we employ the intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) line Caco-2 as a model system to demonstrate the dynamicity of tandem-mass-tag (TMT) labeling over a range of 5-40% changes in protein abundance, with the variance controls of ± 5% FC for around 95% of TMT ratios when sampling 9-12 biological replicates. We further applied this procedure to examine the temporal proteome of Caco-2 cells upon exposure to human whey proteins (WP). Pathway assessments predict subtle effects due to WP in moderating xenobiotic metabolism, promoting proliferation and various other cellular functions in differentiating enterocyte-like Caco-2 cells. This demonstration of a sensitive MS approach may open up new perspectives in the system-wide exploration of elusive or transient biological effects by facilitating scrutiny of narrow windows of proteome abundance changes. Furthermore, we anticipate this study will encourage more investigations of WP on infant gastrointestinal tract development.

Background Post-translational modification by ubiquitin is a fundamental regulatory mechanism that is implicated in many cellular processes including the cell cycle, apoptosis, cell adhesion, angiogenesis, and tumor growth. The low stoichiometry of ubiquitylation presents an analytical challenge for the detection of endogenously modified proteins in the absence of enrichment strategies. The recent availability of antibodies recognizing peptides with Lys residues containing a di-Gly ubiquitin remnant (K-ε-GG) has greatly improved the ability to enrich and identify ubiquitylation sites from complex protein lysates via mass spectrometry. To date, there have not been any published studies that quantitatively assess the changes in endogenous ubiquitin-modification protein stoichiometry status at the proteome level from different tissues. Results In this study, we applied an integrated quantitative mass spectrometry based approach using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) to interrogate the ubiquitin-modified proteome and the cognate global proteome levels from luminal and basal breast cancer patient-derived xenograft tissues. Among the proteins with quantitative global and ubiquitylation data, 91 % had unchanged levels of total protein relative abundance, and less than 5 % of these proteins had up- or down-regulated ubiquitylation levels. Of particular note, greater than half of the proteins with observed changes in their total protein level also had up- or down-regulated changes in their ubiquitylation level. Conclusions This is the first report of the application of iTRAQ-based quantification to the integrated analysis of the ubiquitylated and global proteomes at the tissue level. Our results underscore the importance of conducting integrated analyses of the global and ubiquitylated proteomes toward elucidating the specific functional significance of ubiquitylation.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry is an indispensable tool for peptide and protein analysis owing to its speed, sensitivity, and versatility. It can be used to determine amino acid sequences of peptides, and to characterize a wide variety of post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation and glycosylation. Mass spectrometry can also be used to determine absolute and relative protein quantities, and can identify and quantify thousands of proteins from complex samples, which makes it an extremely powerful tool for systems biology studies. The main goals of this unit are to familiarize peptide and protein chemists and biologists with the types of mass spectrometers that are appropriate for the majority of their analytical needs, to describe the kinds of experiments that can be performed with these instruments on a routine basis, and to discuss the kinds of information that these experiments provide.

Abstract
![]()
Stable
isotope labeling is widely used to encode and quantify proteins
in mass-spectrometry-based proteomics. We compared metabolic labeling
with stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC)
and chemical labeling by stable isotope dimethyl labeling and find
that they have comparable accuracy and quantitative dynamic range
in unfractionated proteome analyses and affinity pull-down experiments.
Analyzing SILAC- and dimethyl-labeled samples together in single liquid
chromatography–mass spectrometric analyses minimizes differences
under analytical conditions, allowing comparisons of quantitative
errors introduced during sample processing. We find that SILAC is
more reproducible than dimethyl labeling. Because proteins from metabolically
labeled populations can be combined before proteolytic digestion,
SILAC is particularly suited to studies with extensive sample processing,
such as fractionation and enrichment of peptides with post-translational
modifications. We compared both methods in pull-down experiments using
a kinase inhibitor, dasatinib, and tagged GRB2-SH2 protein as affinity
baits. We describe a StageTip dimethyl-labeling protocol that we applied
to in-solution and in-gel protein digests. Comparing the impact of
post-digest isotopic labeling on quantitative accuracy, we demonstrate
how specific experimental designs can benefit most from metabolic
labeling approaches like SILAC and situations where chemical labeling
by stable isotope-dimethyl labeling can be a practical alternative.

Abstract
Within the past years, we have witnessed a great improvement in mass spectrometry (MS) and proteomics approaches in terms of instrumentation, protein fractionation, and bioinformatics. With the current technology, protein identification alone is no longer sufficient. Both scientists and clinicians want not only to identify proteins but also to identify the protein's posttranslational modifications (PTMs), protein isoforms, protein truncation, protein-protein interaction (PPI), and protein quantitation. Here, we describe the principle of MS and proteomics and strategies to identify proteins, protein's PTMs, protein isoforms, protein truncation, PPIs, and protein quantitation. We also discuss the strengths and weaknesses within this field. Finally, in our concluding remarks we assess the role of mass spectrometry and proteomics in scientific and clinical settings in the near future. This chapter provides an introduction and overview for subsequent chapters that will discuss specific MS proteomic methodologies and their application to specific medical conditions. Other chapters will also touch upon areas that expand beyond proteomics, such as lipidomics and metabolomics.

Abstract
Proteomics is a key tool in the identification of new bile biomarkers for differentiating malignant and nonmalignant biliary stenoses. Unfortunately, the complexity of bile and the presence of molecules interfering with protein analysis represent an obstacle for quantitative proteomic studies in bile samples. The simultaneous need to introduce purification steps and minimize the use of pre-fractionation methods inevitably leads to protein loss and limited quantifications. This dramatically reduces the chance of identifying new potential biomarkers. In the present study, we included differential centrifugation as a preliminary step in a quantitative proteomic workflow involving iTRAQ labeling, peptide fractionation by OFFGEL electrophoresis and LC-MS/MS, to compare protein expression in bile samples collected from patients with malignant or nonmalignant biliary stenoses. A total of 1267 proteins were identified, including a set of 322 newly described bile proteins, mainly belonging to high-density cellular fractions. The subsequent comparative analysis led to a 5-fold increase in the number of quantified proteins over previously published studies and highlighted 104 proteins overexpressed in malignant samples. Finally, immunoblot verifications performed on a cohort of 8 malignant (pancreatic adenocarcinoma, n=4; cholangiocarcinoma, n=4) and 5 nonmalignant samples (chronic pancreatitis, n=3; biliary stones, n=2) confirmed the results of proteomic analysis for three proteins: olfactomedin-4, syntenin-2 and Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Biomarkers: A Proteomic Challenge.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry (MS) analysis of peptides and proteins has evolved dramatically over the last 20 years. Improvement of MS instrumentation, computational data analysis, and the availability of complete sequence databases for many species have made large-scale proteomics analyses possible. The measurement of global protein abundance by quantitative mass spectrometry has the potential to increase both speed and impact of biological and clinical research. However, to be able to detect and identify potential biomarkers, reproducible and accurate quantification is essential. The following chapter describes how to perform quantitative protein profiling using stable isotope labeling methods. Throughout, there is a focus on guidance in selection of an appropriate labeling strategy. With that in mind, we have included a section on acquisition and understanding of the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) data format. Further, we describe the different stable isotope labeling methods and their pros and cons. We start by giving an overview of the overall quantitative proteomics workflow in which extracting relevant biological information from the acquired data is the ultimate goal.

Abstract
Understanding the signaling pathways governing pluripotency and self-renewal is a prerequisite for better controlling stem cell differentiation to specific fates. Reversible protein phosphorylation is one of the most important posttranslational modifications regulating signaling pathways in biological processes. Global analysis of dynamic changes in protein phosphorylation is, therefore, key to understanding signaling at the system level. Here, we describe a generic mass spectrometry (MS)-based phosphoproteomics strategy applied to monitor phosphorylation dynamics after bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4)-induced differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). Our method combines the use of strong cation exchange (SCX) and titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) for phosphopeptide enrichment, high-resolution MS for peptide and protein identification, and stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) for quantification. This approach allows us to identify thousands of phosphorylation sites and profile their relative abundance during differentiation. This systems-biology-based approach provides new insights into how human pluripotent stem cells exit the pluripotent state.
