Proteomic profiling of lipopolysaccharide-activated macrophages by isotope coded affinity tagging.

ABSTRACT: Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a glycolipid component of the outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria, initiates proinflammatory, proapoptotic, and antiapoptotic pathways upon binding to macrophage TLR4. Macrophages that are exposed to LPS become activated and exhibit altered morphology and response to infection. We performed isotope coded affinity tagging (ICAT), multidimensional liquid chromatography, and mass spectrometry to identify proteins that are differently expressed between naive and LPS-activated macrophages. We performed replicate ICAT analyses on RAW 264.7 cultured mouse macrophages as well as C57BL/6 bone marrow derived mouse macrophages. We identified and obtained relative abundances for 1064 proteins, of which we identified 36 as having significantly different expression levels upon activation by LPS. We also compared our results with a two color microarray gene expression assay performed by the Institute for Systems Biology and observed approximately 75% agreement between mRNA transcription and protein expression regarding up- or down-regulation of gene products. We used Western blot analysis to confirm the findings of ICAT and mRNA for one protein, sequestosome 1, the cellular concentration of which was observed to increase upon activation by LPS.

Project description:Peroxidation of cellular membrane lipids, rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, generates electrophilic, α, β-unsaturated aldehydes such as 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE). HNE is a highly reactive and cytotoxic molecule that can react with the nucleophilic sites in proteins causing posttranslational modification. The identification of protein targets is an important first step; however, quantitative profiling of site-specific modifications is necessary to understand the biological impact of HNE-induced carbonylation. We report a method that uses light (H(12)CHO) and heavy (D(13)CDO) isotopic variant of formaldehyde to differentially label primary amines (N-termini and ε-amino group of lysines) in peptides through reductive methylation and, combined with selective enrichment of modified peptides, permits comparison of the extent of carbonylation in two samples after mixing for simultaneous liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Specifically, dimethyl-labeled peptide carbonyls were fractionated from unmodified peptides using solid-phase hydrazide chemistry to immobilize them to porous glass beads and, after removing the unmodified peptides by thoroughly washing the beads, subsequently recover them by acid-catalyzed hydrolysis. The method was developed using HNE-modified synthetic peptides and also showing enrichment from a complex matrix of digested human plasma proteins. Applicability was confirmed using apomyoglobin as an analyte, implicating thereby its potential value to proteome-wide identification and relative quantification of posttranslational protein carbonylation with residue-specific information. Because HNE attachment may not necessarily cause change in protein abundance, this modification-focused quantification should facilitate the characterization of accompanied changes in protein function and, also, provide important insights into molecular signaling mechanisms and a better understanding of cellular processes associated with oxidative stress.
