Identification of Prostate-Enriched Proteins by In-depth Proteomic Analyses of Expressed Prostatic Secretions in Urine

2012

Urinary expressed prostatic secretion or "EPS-urine" is proximal tissue fluid that is collected after a digital rectal exam (DRE). EPS-urine is a rich source of prostate-derived proteins that can be used for biomarker discovery for prostate cancer (PCa) and other prostatic diseases. We previously conducted a comprehensive proteome analysis of direct expressed prostatic secretions (EPS). In the current study, we defined the proteome of EPS-urine employing Multidimensional Protein Identification Technology (MudPIT) and providing a comprehensive catalogue of this body fluid for future biomarker studies. We identified 1022 unique proteins in a heterogeneous cohort of 11 EPS-urines derived from …

Metaproteomic analysis of atmospheric aerosol samples.

2016

Metaproteomic analysis of air particulate matter provides information about the abundance and properties of bioaerosols in the atmosphere and their influence on climate and public health. We developed and applied efficient methods for the extraction and analysis of proteins from glass fiber filter samples of total, coarse, and fine particulate matter. Size exclusion chromatography was applied to remove matrix components, and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was applied for protein fractionation according to molecular size, followed by in-gel digestion and LC-MS/MS analysis of peptides using a hybrid Quadrupole-Orbitrap MS. Maxquant software and the Swiss-…

Proteomic profiling of German Dornfelder grape berries using data-independent acquisition

2017

Grapevine is one of the most important fruit plants throughout the world. Sequencing of the grape genome in 2007 enabled in-depth analyses of the grape proteome. Whereas many studies addressed changes in proteomic composition of grapes during ripening, we focused on the proteome of mature grape berries from Dornfelder, a characteristic red wine grape for Germany. Current data-independent acquisition proteomics technology enables the analysis of proteomic compositions in a degree of accuracy that was unreachable only a few years ago. Using a label-free proteomics approach, we quantified 712 proteins in mature Dornfelder grape berries, of which 650 could be annotated by the Blast2GO software.…

Protein Biomarkers of Bovine Defective Meats at a Glance: Gel-Free Hybrid Quadrupole-Orbitrap Analysis for Rapid Screening

2021

An understanding of biological mechanisms that could be involved in the stress response of animal cattle prior to slaughter is critical to create effective strategies aiming at the production of high-quality meat. The sarcoplasmic proteome of directly extracted samples from normal and high ultimate pH (pHu) meat groups was studied through a straightforward gel-free strategy supported by liquid chromatography hybrid quadrupole-Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) analysis. A stepped proteomic pipeline combining rapid biomarker hunting supported by qualitative protein Mascot scores followed by targeted label-free peptide quantification revealed 26 descriptors that characterize…

Proteomics as a tool to monitor plant-microbe endosymbioses in the rhizosphere

2004

In recent years, outstanding molecular approaches have been used to investigate genes and functions involved in plant-microbe endosymbioses. In this review, we outline the use of proteomic analysis, based on two-dimensional electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, to characterize symbiosis-related proteins. During the last decade, proteomics succeeded in identifying about 400 proteins associated with the development and functioning of both mycorrhizal and rhizobial symbioses. Further progress in prefractionation procedures is expected to allow the detection of symbiotic proteins showing low abundance or being present in certain cell compartments.

Sub-cellular proteomic analysis of a Medicago truncatula root microsomal fraction

2004

Since the last decade, Medicago truncatula has emerged as one of the model plants particularly investigated in the field of plant-microbe interactions. Several genetic and molecular approaches including proteomics have been developed to increase knowledge about this plant species. To complement the proteomic data, which have mainly focused on the total root proteins from M. truncatula, we carried out a sub-cellular approach to gain access to the total membrane-associated proteins. Following the setting up of the purification process, microsomal proteins were separated on 2-DE. Ninety-six out of the 440 well-resolved proteins were identified by MALDI-TOF peptide mass fingerprinting. A high p…

A proteomic approach to studying plant response to crenate broomrape (Orobanche crenata) in pea (Pisum sativum)

2004

Abstract Crenate broomrape ( Orobanche crenata ) is a parasitic plant that threatens legume production in Mediterranean areas. Pea ( Pisum sativum ) is severely affected, and only moderate levels of genetic resistance have so far been identified. In the present work we selected the most resistant accession available (Ps 624) and compared it with a susceptible (Messire) cultivar. Experiments were performed by using pot and Petri dish bioassays, showing little differences in the percentage of broomrape seed germination induced by both genotypes, but a significant hamper in the number of successfully installed tubercles and their developmental stage in the Ps 624 compared to Messire. The prote…
