Rapid preparation of human blood plasma for bottom-up proteomics analysis

ABSTRACT: Summary This protocol offers step-by-step instructions for preparation of raw blood plasma for liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis in clinical proteomics studies. The technique is simple, robust, and reproducible, and the entire transformation from plasma proteins to desalted tryptic peptides takes only 3–4 h. The protocol ensures efficient denaturation of native proteases that, in combination with the speediness of the procedure, prevents non-specific and irreproducible cleavage of digested peptides. The protocol can be adopted for large-scale studies and automation. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Overmyer et al. (2020).

C-STrap Sample Preparation Method--In-Situ Cysteinyl Peptide Capture for Bottom-Up Proteomics Analysis in the STrap Format.

Project description:Recently we introduced the concept of Suspension Trapping (STrap) for bottom-up proteomics sample processing that is based upon SDS-mediated protein extraction, swift detergent removal and rapid reactor-type protein digestion in a quartz depth filter trap. As the depth filter surface is made of silica, it is readily modifiable with various functional groups using the silane coupling chemistries. Thus, during the digest, peptides possessing specific features could be targeted for enrichment by the functionalized depth filter material while non-targeted peptides could be collected as an unbound distinct fraction after the digest. In the example presented here the quartz depth filter surface is functionalized with the pyridyldithiol group therefore enabling reversible in-situ capture of the cysteine-containing peptides generated during the STrap-based digest. The described C-STrap method retains all advantages of the original STrap methodology and provides robust foundation for the conception of the targeted in-situ peptide fractionation in the STrap format for bottom-up proteomics. The presented data support the method's use in qualitative and semi-quantitative proteomics experiments.

Milk Bottom-Up Proteomics: Method Optimization.

Project description:Milk is a complex fluid whose proteome displays a diverse set of proteins of high abundance such as caseins and medium to low abundance whey proteins such as ß-lactoglobulin, lactoferrin, immunoglobulins, glycoproteins, peptide hormones, and enzymes. A sample preparation method that enables high reproducibility and throughput is key in reliably identifying proteins present or proteins responding to conditions such as a diet, health or genetics. Using skim milk samples from Jersey and Holstein-Friesian cows, we compared three extraction procedures which have not previously been applied to samples of cows' milk. Method A (urea) involved a simple dilution of the milk in a urea-based buffer, method B (TCA/acetone) involved a trichloroacetic acid (TCA)/acetone precipitation, and method C (methanol/chloroform) involved a tri-phasic partition method in chloroform/methanol solution. Protein assays, SDS-PAGE profiling, and trypsin digestion followed by nanoHPLC-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (nLC-ESI-MS/MS) analyses were performed to assess their efficiency. Replicates were used at each analytical step (extraction, digestion, injection) to assess reproducibility. Mass spectrometry (MS) data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD002529. Overall 186 unique accessions, major and minor proteins, were identified with a combination of methods. Method C (methanol/chloroform) yielded the best resolved SDS-patterns and highest protein recovery rates, method A (urea) yielded the greatest number of accessions, and, of the three procedures, method B (TCA/acetone) was the least compatible of all with a wide range of downstream analytical procedures. Our results also highlighted breed differences between the proteins in milk of Jersey and Holstein-Friesian cows.

Evaluation of Sample Preparation Strategies for Human Milk and Plasma Proteomics.

Project description:Sample preparation is the most critical step in proteomics as it directly affects the subset of proteins and peptides that can be reliably identified and quantified. Although a variety of efficient and reproducible sample preparation strategies have been developed, their applicability and efficacy depends much on the biological sample. Here, three approaches were evaluated for the human milk and plasma proteomes. Protein extracts were digested either in an ultrafiltration unit (filter-aided sample preparation, FASP) or in-solution (ISD). ISD samples were desalted by solid-phase extraction prior to nRPC-ESI-MS/MS. Additionally, milk and plasma samples were directly digested by FASP without prior protein precipitation. Each strategy provided inherent advantages and disadvantages for milk and plasma. FASP appeared to be the most time efficient procedure with a low miscleavage rate when used for a biological sample aliquot, but quantitation was less reproducible. A prior protein precipitation step improved the quantitation by FASP due to significantly higher peak areas for plasma and a much better reproducibility for milk. Moreover, the miscleavage rate for milk, the identification rate for plasma, and the carbamidomethylation efficiency were improved. In contrast, ISD of both milk and plasma resulted in higher miscleavage rates and is therefore less suitable for targeted proteomics.

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.

Bottom-up proteomics analysis for adduction of the broad-spectrum herbicide atrazine to histone.

Project description:Histones are the major proteinaceous components of chromatin in eukaryotic cells and an important part of the epigenome. The broad-spectrum herbicide atrazine (2-chloro-4-[ethylamino]-6-[isopropylamino]-1, 3, 5-triazine) and its metabolites are known to form protein adducts, but the formation of atrazine-histone adducts has not been studied. In this study, a bottom-up proteomics analysis method was optimized and applied to identify histone adduction by atrazine in vitro. Whole histones of calf thymus or human histone H3.3 were incubated with atrazine. After solvent-based protein precipitation, the protein was digested by trypsin/Glu-C and the resulting peptides were analyzed by high-resolution mass spectrometry using an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatograph interfaced with a quadrupole Exactive-Orbitrap mass spectrometer. The resulting tryptic/Glu-C peptide of DTNLCAIHAK from calf thymus histone H3.1 or human histone H3.3 was identified with an accurate mass shift of +179.117 Da in atrazine incubated samples. It is deduced that a chemical group with an elemental composition of C8H13N5 (179.1171 Da) from atrazine adducted with calf thymus histone H3.1 or human histone H3.3. It was confirmed by MS/MS analysis that the adduction position was at its cysteine 110 residue. Time- and concentration-dependent assays also confirmed the non-enzymatic covalent modification of histone H3.3 by atrazine in vitro. Thus, the potential exists that atrazine adduction may lead to the alteration of histones that subsequently disturbs their normal function.

Bottom-up proteomics analysis of the secretome of murine islets of Langerhans in elevated glucose levels.

Project description:Glucotoxicity is a causative agent of type-2 diabetes, where high glucose levels damage the islets of Langerhans resulting in oxidative damage and endoplasmic reticulum stress. We evaluated the secretomes of healthy CD-1 murine islets. Three experimental conditions were investigated in biological triplicate: a control incubated with 11 mM glucose, 1-day incubation with 25 mM glucose, and 2-day incubation with 25 mM glucose. An SDS-based, filter-aided sample preparation protocol was used to prepare secretomes for analysis. A total of 428 protein groups were identified across the nine samples. Each condition generated between 328-349 protein IDs and intracondition protein overlap was between 66-90% for the biological triplicates. 232 protein groups were identified in all three conditions with 184 quantified at least once in each condition. Significant expression changes were observed for proteins associated with the unfolded protein response, such as proteases, chaperones, and elongation factors, as well as proteins associated with peptide hormone processing and small molecule metabolism.

Direct detection of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (CTX-M) from blood cultures by LC-MS/MS bottom-up proteomics.

Project description:Rapid bacterial species identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing in positive blood cultures have an important impact on the antibiotic treatment for patients. To identify extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) directly in positive blood culture bottles, we developed a workflow of saponin extraction followed by a bottom-up proteomics approach using liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The workflow was applied to positive blood cultures with Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae collected prospectively in two academic hospitals over a 4-month period. Of 170 positive blood cultures, 22 (12.9%) contained ESBL-positive isolates based on standard susceptibility testing. Proteomic analysis identified CTX-M ESBLs in 95% of these isolates directly in positive blood cultures, whereas no false positives were found in the non-ESBL producing positive blood cultures. The results were confirmed by molecular characterisation of beta-lactamase genes. Based on this proof-of-concept study, we conclude that LC-MS/MS-based protein analysis can directly identify extended-spectrum beta lactamases in E. coli and K. pneumoniae positive blood cultures, and could be further developed for application in routine diagnostics.

A statistical framework for protein quantitation in bottom-up MS-based proteomics.

Project description:Quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomics requires protein-level estimates and associated confidence measures. Challenges include the presence of low quality or incorrectly identified peptides and informative missingness. Furthermore, models are required for rolling peptide-level information up to the protein level.We present a statistical model that carefully accounts for informative missingness in peak intensities and allows unbiased, model-based, protein-level estimation and inference. The model is applicable to both label-based and label-free quantitation experiments. We also provide automated, model-based, algorithms for filtering of proteins and peptides as well as imputation of missing values. Two LC/MS datasets are used to illustrate the methods. In simulation studies, our methods are shown to achieve substantially more discoveries than standard alternatives.The software has been made available in the open-source proteomics platform DAnTE (http://omics.pnl.gov/software/).

Ion mobility tandem mass spectrometry enhances performance of bottom-up proteomics.

Project description:One of the limiting factors in determining the sensitivity of tandem mass spectrometry using hybrid quadrupole orthogonal acceleration time-of-flight instruments is the duty cycle of the orthogonal ion injection system. As a consequence, only a fraction of the generated fragment ion beam is collected by the time-of-flight analyzer. Here we describe a method utilizing postfragmentation ion mobility spectrometry of peptide fragment ions in conjunction with mobility time synchronized orthogonal ion injection leading to a substantially improved duty cycle and a concomitant improvement in sensitivity of up to 10-fold for bottom-up proteomic experiments. This enabled the identification of 7500 human proteins within 1 day and 8600 phosphorylation sites within 5 h of LC-MS/MS time. The method also proved powerful for multiplexed quantification experiments using tandem mass tags exemplified by the chemoproteomic interaction analysis of histone deacetylases with Trichostatin A.
