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.

Detergent-Based but Gel-Free Method Allows Identification of Several Hundred Membrane Proteins in Single LC-MS Runs

TL;DR: A procedure that allows use of detergents and in-solution digestion of proteins and demonstrates that membrane proteins can be analyzed as efficiently as soluble proteins.

ADF/Cofilin Regulates Secretory Cargo Sorting at the TGN via the Ca2+ ATPase SPCA1

TL;DR: It is proposed that ADF/cofilin-dependent severing of actin filaments exposes and promotes the activation of SPCA1, which pumps Ca(2+) into the lumen of the TGN for the sorting of the class of secretory cargo that binds Ca( 2+).

SETD2 Restricts Prostate Cancer Metastasis by Integrating EZH2 and AMPK Signaling Pathways.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the SETD2-EZH2 axis integrates metabolic and epigenetic signaling to restrict PCa metastasis and it is identified that metformin-stimulated AMPK signaling converges at FOXO3 to stimulateSETD2 expression.

Proximity biotinylation provides insight into the molecular composition of focal adhesions at the nanometer scale

TL;DR: The use of proximity-dependent biotinylation in U2OS osteosarcoma cells and stable isotope–labeled mass spectrometry to define macromolecular complexes enable the correct identification of therapeutic targets within the adhesome are illustrated.

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.

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.
