Inactivation of Coronaviruses during Sample Preparation for Proteomics Experiments.

ABSTRACT: Mass spectrometry-based proteomics is applied in SARS-CoV-2 research and is, moreover, being discussed as a novel method for SARS-CoV-2 diagnostics. However, the safe inactivation of coronaviruses by proteomics lysis buffers has not been systematically analyzed yet. Hence, for safety reasons a heating step prior to sample preparation is often performed. This step could be omitted once the safe inactivation with the typical buffers is proven. Here we test five different proteomics lysis buffers-4% SDS, 1% SDC, TFA, 6 M GdmCl, and 8 M urea-for their inactivation capacity of coronaviruses. Two representative human coronaviruses, namely HCoV-229E and HCoV-OC43, were used as surrogate for SARS-CoV-2. Lysis was performed at room temperature and at 95 °C for 5 min. Inactivation was confirmed by the absence of a cytopathic effect in MRC-5 cells, and equivocal results were further confirmed by serial passaging and quantitative real-time PCR. While at room temperature SDS, SDC, and TFA inactivated both coronaviruses, and GdmCl and urea resulted in partially incomplete inactivation. This demonstrates that care should be taken when choosing lysis buffers for proteomics analysis of coronaviruses, because some buffers do not ensure inactivation and, hence, biosafety during the further sample preparation.

Successful sample preparation for serial crystallography experiments.

Project description:Serial crystallography, at both synchrotron and X-ray free-electron laser light sources, is becoming increasingly popular. However, the tools in the majority of crystallization laboratories are focused on producing large single crystals by vapour diffusion that fit the cryo-cooled paradigm of modern synchrotron crystallography. This paper presents several case studies and some ideas and strategies on how to perform the conversion from a single crystal grown by vapour diffusion to the many thousands of micro-crystals required for modern serial crystallography grown by batch crystallization. These case studies aim to show (i) how vapour diffusion conditions can be converted into batch by optimizing the length of time crystals take to appear; (ii) how an understanding of the crystallization phase diagram can act as a guide when designing batch crystallization protocols; and (iii) an accessible methodology when attempting to scale batch conditions to larger volumes. These methods are needed to minimize the sample preparation gap between standard rotation crystallography and dedicated serial laboratories, ultimately making serial crystallography more accessible to all crystallographers.

Miniprep assisted proteomics (MAP) for rapid proteomics sample preparation.

Project description:Complete enzymatic digestion of proteins for bottom-up proteomics is substantially improved by use of detergents for denaturation and solubilization. Detergents however, are incompatible with many proteases and highly detrimental to LC-MS/MS. Recently; filter-based methods have seen wide use due to their capacity to remove detergents and harmful reagents prior to digestion and mass spectrometric analysis. We hypothesized that non-specific protein binding to negatively charged silica-based filters would be enhanced by addition of lyotropic salts, similar to DNA purification. We sought to exploit these interactions and investigate if low-cost DNA purification spin-filters, 'Minipreps,' efficiently and reproducibly bind proteins for digestion and LC-MS/MS analysis. We propose a new method, Miniprep Assisted Proteomics (MAP), for sample preparation. We demonstrate binding capacity, performance, recovery and identification rates for proteins and whole-cell lysates using MAP. MAP recovered equivalent or greater protein yields from 0.5-50 μg analyses benchmarked against commercial trapping preparations. Nano UHPLC-MS/MS proteome profiling of lysates of Escherichia coli had 99.3% overlap vs. existing approaches and reproducibility of replicate minipreps was 98.8% at the 1% FDR protein level. Label Free Quantitative proteomics was performed and 91.2% of quantified proteins had a %CV <20% (2044/2241). Miniprep Assisted Proteomics can be performed in minutes, shows low variability, high recovery and proteome depth. This suggests a significant role for adventitious binding in developing new proteomics sample preparation techniques. MAP represents an efficient, ultra-low-cost alternative for sample preparation in a commercially obtainable device that costs ∼$0.50 (USD) per miniprep.

Automated sample preparation with SP3 for low-input clinical proteomics

Project description:High-throughput and streamlined workflows are essential in clinical proteomics for standardized processing of samples from a variety of sources, including fresh frozen tissue, FFPE tissue, or blood. To reach this goal, we have implemented single-pot solid-phase-enhanced sample preparation (SP3) on a liquid handling robot for automated processing (autoSP3) of tissue lysates in a 96-well format. AutoSP3 performs unbiased protein purification and digestion, and delivers peptides that can be directly analyzed by LCMS, thereby significantly reducing hands-on time, reducing variability in protein quantification, and improving longitudinal reproducibility. We demonstrate the distinguishing ability of autoSP3 to process low-input samples, reproducibly quantifying 500-1000 proteins from 100-1000 cells. Furthermore, we applied this approach to a cohort of clinical FFPE pulmonary adenocarcinoma (ADC) samples, and recapitulated their separation into known histological growth patterns. Finally, we integrated autoSP3 with AFA-ultrasonication for the automated end-to-end sample preparation and LCMS analysis of 96 intact tissue samples. Collectively this constitutes a generic, scalable, and cost-effective workflow with minimal manual intervention, enabling reproducible tissue proteomics in a broad range of clinical and non-clinical applications.

Hanging drop sample preparation improves sensitivity of spatial proteomics.

Project description:Spatial proteomics holds great promise for revealing tissue heterogeneity in both physiological and pathological conditions. However, one significant limitation of most spatial proteomics workflows is the requirement of large sample amounts that blurs cell-type-specific or microstructure-specific information. In this study, we developed an improved sample preparation approach for spatial proteomics and integrated it with our previously-established laser capture microdissection (LCM) and microfluidics sample processing platform. Specifically, we developed a hanging drop (HD) method to improve the sample recovery by positioning a nanowell chip upside-down during protein extraction and tryptic digestion steps. Compared with the commonly-used sitting-drop method, the HD method keeps the tissue pixel away from the container surface, and thus improves the accessibility of the extraction/digestion buffer to the tissue sample. The HD method can increase the MS signal by 7 fold, leading to a 66% increase in the number of identified proteins. An average of 721, 1489, and 2521 proteins can be quantitatively profiled from laser-dissected 10 μm-thick mouse liver tissue pixels with areas of 0.0025, 0.01, and 0.04 mm2, respectively. The improved system was further validated in the study of cell-type-specific proteomes of mouse uterine tissues.

A sample preparation workflow for adipose tissue shotgun proteomics and proteogenomics.

Project description:Animals with large adipose stores, such as marine mammals, may provide insights into the evolution and function of this multifunctional tissue in health and disease. In the absence of sequenced genomes, molecular information can be rapidly obtained by proteomics and transcriptomics, but their application to adipose tissue is hindered by low nucleic acid and protein yields. We sequenced and compared proteomes isolated from the blubber of four elephant seals using phenol and guanidine thiocyanate (Qiazol) or detergent (sodium deoxycholate) buffer. Qiazol recovered more subcellular proteins such as metabolic enzymes, in addition to extracting RNA, facilitating proteogenomic analyses of small lipid-rich tissue biopsies. We also compared proteomics data analysis platforms and found that de novo peptide sequencing improved protein identification sensitivity compared to database search alone. We report sample preparation and data analysis workflows for proteogenomics and a proteome of elephant seal blubber containing 2678 proteins, including many of interest for further functional studies.This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.

Protein Aggregation Capture on Microparticles Enables Multipurpose Proteomics Sample Preparation.

Project description:Universal proteomics sample preparation is challenging because of the high heterogeneity of biological samples. Here we describe a novel mechanism that exploits the inherent instability of denatured proteins for nonspecific immobilization on microparticles by protein aggregation capture. To demonstrate the general applicability of this mechanism, we analyzed phosphoproteomes, tissue proteomes, and interaction proteomes as well as dilute secretomes. The findings present a practical, sensitive and cost-effective proteomics sample preparation method.

Assessment of Sample Preparation Bias in Mass Spectrometry-Based Proteomics.

Project description:For mass spectrometry-based proteomics, the selected sample preparation strategy is a key determinant for information that will be obtained. However, the corresponding selection is often not based on a fit-for-purpose evaluation. Here we report a comparison of in-gel (IGD), in-solution (ISD), on-filter (OFD), and on-pellet digestion (OPD) workflows on the basis of targeted (QconCAT-multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) method for mitochondrial proteins) and discovery proteomics (data-dependent acquisition, DDA) analyses using three different human head and neck tissues (i.e., nasal polyps, parotid gland, and palatine tonsils). Our study reveals differences between the sample preparation methods, for example, with respect to protein and peptide losses, quantification variability, protocol-induced methionine oxidation, and asparagine/glutamine deamidation as well as identification of cysteine-containing peptides. However, none of the methods performed best for all types of tissues, which argues against the existence of a universal sample preparation method for proteome analysis.

SimPLIT: Simplified Sample Preparation for Large-Scale Isobaric Tagging Proteomics.

Project description:Large scale proteomic profiling of cell lines can reveal molecular signatures attributed to variable genotypes or induced perturbations, enabling proteogenomic associations and elucidation of pharmacological mechanisms of action. Although isobaric labeling has increased the throughput of proteomic analysis, the commonly used sample preparation workflows often require time-consuming steps and costly consumables, limiting their suitability for large scale studies. Here, we present a simplified and cost-effective one-pot reaction workflow in a 96-well plate format (SimPLIT) that minimizes processing steps and demonstrates improved reproducibility compared to alternative approaches. The workflow is based on a sodium deoxycholate lysis buffer and a single detergent cleanup step after peptide labeling, followed by quick off-line fractionation and MS2 analysis. We showcase the applicability of the workflow in a panel of colorectal cancer cell lines and by performing target discovery for a set of molecular glue degraders in different cell lines, in a 96-sample assay. Using this workflow, we report frequently dysregulated proteins in colorectal cancer cells and uncover cell-dependent protein degradation profiles of seven cereblon E3 ligase modulators (CRL4CRBN). Overall, SimPLIT is a robust method that can be easily implemented in any proteomics laboratory for medium-to-large scale TMT-based studies for deep profiling of cell lines.

Highly Reproducible Automated Proteomics Sample Preparation Workflow for Quantitative Mass Spectrometry.

Project description:Sample preparation for protein quantification by mass spectrometry requires multiple processing steps including denaturation, reduction, alkylation, protease digestion, and peptide cleanup. Scaling these procedures for the analysis of numerous complex biological samples can be tedious and time-consuming, as there are many liquid transfer steps and timed reactions where technical variations can be introduced and propagated. We established an automated sample preparation workflow with a total processing time for 96 samples of 5 h, including a 2 h incubation with trypsin. Peptide cleanup is accomplished by online diversion during the LC/MS/MS analysis. In a selected reaction monitoring (SRM) assay targeting 6 plasma biomarkers and spiked ?-galactosidase, mean intraday and interday cyclic voltammograms (CVs) for 5 serum and 5 plasma samples over 5 days were <20%. In a highly multiplexed SRM assay targeting more than 70 proteins, 90% of the transitions from 6 plasma samples repeated on 3 separate days had total CVs below 20%. Similar results were obtained when the workflow was transferred to a second site: 93% of peptides had CVs below 20%. An automated trypsin digestion workflow yields uniformly processed samples in less than 5 h. Reproducible quantification of peptides was observed across replicates, days, instruments, and laboratory sites, demonstrating the broad applicability of this approach.
