Chapter 2 Strategies for protein separation. 2.2 GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF PROTEIN SEPARATION IN PROTEOMICS ; 2.3 PRINCIPLES FOR TWO-DIMENSIONAL GEL ELECTROPHORESIS ; Electrophoresis separates proteins by mass and charge ; Isoelectric focusing separates proteins by charge irrespective of mass ; SDS-PAGE separates proteins by mass irrespective of charge ; 2.4 THE APPLICATION OF 2DGE IN PROTEOMICS ; The four major advantages of 2DGE are robustness, reproducibility, visualization, and compatibility with downstream microanalysis ; The four major limitations of 2DGE are resolution, sensitivity, representation, and compatibility with automated protein analysis ; The resolution of 2DGE can be improved with giant gels, zoom gels, and modified gradients, or by pre-fractionating the sample ; The sensitivity of 2DGE depends on the visualization of minor protein spots, which can be masked by abundant proteins ; The representation of hydrophobic proteins is an intractable problem reflecting the buffers required for isoelectric focusing ; Downstream mass spectrometry requires spot analysis and picking ; 2.5 PRINCIPLES OF MULTIDIMENSIONAL LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY ; Protein and peptide separation by chromatography relies on differing affinity for stationary and mobile phases ; Affinity chromatography exploits the specific binding characteristics of proteins and/or peptides ; Size exclusion chromatography sieves molecules on the basis of their size ; Ion exchange chromatography exploits differences in net charge ; Reversed-phase chromatography and hydrophobic interaction chromatography exploit the affinity between peptides and hydrophobic resins ; 2.6 MULTIDIMENSIONAL LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY STRATEGIES IN PROTEOMICS ; Multidimensional liquid chromatography is more versatile and more easily automated than 2DGE but lacks a visual dimension ; The most useful MDLC systems achieved optimal peak capacity by exploiting orthogonal separations that have internally compatible buffers ; MudPIT shows how MDLC has evolved from a laborious technique to virtually hands-free operation ; RP-RPLC and HILIC-RP systems offer advantages for the separation of certain types of peptide mixtures ; Affinity chromatography is combined with MDLC to achieve the simplification of peptide mixtures
Chapter 3 Strategies for protein identification. 3.2 PROTEIN IDENTIFICATION WITH ANTIBODIES ; 3.3 DETERMINATION OF PROTEIN SEQUENCES BY CHEMICAL DEGRADATION ; Complete hydrolysis allows protein sequences to be inferred from the content of the resulting amino acid pool ; Edman degradation was the first general method for the de novo sequencing of proteins ; Edman degradation was the first protein identification method to be applied in proteomics, but it is difficult to apply on a large scale ; 3.4 MASS SPECTROMETRY
BASIC PRINCIPLES AND INSTRUMENTATION ; Mass spectrometry is based on the separation of molecules according to their mass/charge ratio ; The integration of mass spectrometry into proteomics required the development of soft ionization methods of prevent random fragmentation ; Controlled fragmentation is used to break peptide bonds and generate fragment ions ; Five principal types of mass analyzer are commonly used in proteomics ; 3.5 PROTEIN IDENTIFICATION USING DATA FROM MASS SPECTRA ; Peptide mass fingerprinting correlates experimental and theoretical intact peptide masses ; Shotgun proteomics can be combined with database searches based on uninterpreted spectra ; MS/MS spectra can be used to derive protein sequences de novo
