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.

Nano LC-MS/MS: a robust setup for proteomic analysis.

TL;DR: This work describes a nano LC-MS/MS setup that allows several weeks of continuous operation for the analysis of peptides derived by enzymatic digestion of either purified proteins or moderately complex protein mixtures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fungal proteomics: from identification to function.

TL;DR: The purpose of this review is to describe the strategies used by many researchers to reveal protein function in fungi, and to consolidate the nomenclature of 'unknown function protein' as opposed to 'hypothetical protein' - once any protein has been identified by protein mass spectrometry.

Genomic and secretomic insight into lignocellulolytic system of an endophytic bacterium Pantoea ananatis Sd-1

TL;DR: The results indicate that P. ananatis Sd-1 can produce considerable lignocellulolytic enzymes including cellulases, hemicellulases, and ligninolytic relevant enzymes that could be efficiently induced by lignOcellulosic biomass.

Proteomic profile of human aortic stenosis: insights into the degenerative process.

TL;DR: The significant changes observed in the abundance of key cardiovascular proteins strongly suggest that they can be involved in the pathogenesis of degenerative aortic stenosis.

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.
