TLDR
This protocol is for the in-gel digestion of both silver and Coomassie-stained protein spots or bands and can be followed by MALDI-MS or LC-MS/MS analysis to identify proteins at sensitivities better than a few femtomoles of protein starting material.
Abstract
In-gel digestion of proteins isolated by gel electrophoresis is a cornerstone of mass spectrometry (MS)-driven proteomics. The 10-year-old recipe by Shevchenko et al. has been optimized to increase the speed and sensitivity of analysis. The protocol is for the in-gel digestion of both silver and Coomassie-stained protein spots or bands and can be followed by MALDI-MS or LC-MS/MS analysis to identify proteins at sensitivities better than a few femtomoles of protein starting material.

Vacuole Membrane Protein 1 Is an Endoplasmic Reticulum Protein Required for Organelle Biogenesis, Protein Secretion, and Development

TL;DR: Transmission electron microscopy of vmp1(-) cells showed the accumulation of autophagic features that suggests a role of Vmp1 in macroautophagy, suggesting a functional conservation of the protein among evolutionarily distant species and highlights Dictyostelium as a valid experimental system to address the function of this gene.

Mutant methionyl-tRNA synthetase from bacteria enables site-selective N-terminal labeling of proteins expressed in mammalian cells

TL;DR: Heterologous expression of a mutant methionyl-tRNA synthetase from Escherichia coli permits incorporation of azidonorleucine (Anl) into proteins made in mammalian (HEK293) cells, and this system is demonstrated in enrichment and visualization of proteins made during various stages of the cell cycle.

NanoUPLC-MSE proteomic data assessment of soybean seeds using the Uniprot database

TL;DR: An assessment of the peptide and protein identification and quantification of soybean seed EMBRAPA BR16 cultivar contents using NanoUPLC-MSE and a comparison to the theoretical tryptic digestion of Soybean sequences from Uniprot database are presented.

Effect of Covalent Interaction with Chlorogenic Acid on the Allergenic Capacity of Ovalbumin

TL;DR: OVA conjugated with CHA may be a promising method of OVA hyposensitization and the CHA binding site in OVA might directly shield the linear IgE epitope, thereby reducing the IgE binding ability.

The N6-methyladenosine RNA-binding protein YTHDF1 modulates the translation of TRAF6 to mediate the intestinal immune response.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the function and mechanism of m6A mRNA modification and the YTH domain-containing protein YTHDF1 (YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA-binding protein 1) in the innate immune response against bacterial pathogens.

Mass Spectrometric Sequencing of Proteins from Silver-Stained Polyacrylamide Gels

TL;DR: Silver staining allows a substantial shortening of sample preparation time and may, therefore, be preferable over Coomassie staining, and this work removes a major obstacle to the low-level sequence analysis of proteins separated on polyacrylamide gels.

Mass spectrometry-based proteomics

TL;DR: The ability of mass spectrometry to identify and, increasingly, to precisely quantify thousands of proteins from complex samples can be expected to impact broadly on biology and medicine.

Stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture, SILAC, as a simple and accurate approach to expression proteomics.

TL;DR: SILAC is a simple, inexpensive, and accurate procedure that can be used as a quantitative proteomic approach in any cell culture system and is applied to the relative quantitation of changes in protein expression during the process of muscle cell differentiation.

Stop and Go extraction tips for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization, nanoelectrospray, and lc/ms sample pretreatment in proteomics

TL;DR: A novel procedure in which a very small disk of beads embedded in a Teflon meshwork is placed as a microcolumn into pipet tips, finding that the Stage system is well-suited as a universal sample preparation system for proteomics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mass spectrometry-based proteomics turns quantitative.

TL;DR: Two recently developed methodologies offer the opportunity to obtain quantitative proteomic information by comparing the signals from the same peptide under different conditions, and stable isotope labels facilitates direct quantification from the mass spectra.
