Comparison between procedures using SDS for shotgun proteomic analyses of complex samples.

ABSTRACT: Filter-aided sample preparation (FASP) and a new sample preparation method using a modified commercial SDS removal spin column are quantitatively compared in terms of their performance for shotgun proteomic experiments in three complex proteomic samples: a Saccharomyces cerevisiae lysate (insoluble fraction), a Caenorhabditis elegans lysate (soluble fraction), and a human embryonic kidney cell line (HEK293T). The characteristics and total number of peptides and proteins identified are compared between the two procedures. The SDS spin column procedure affords a conservative fourfold improvement in throughput, is more reproducible, less expensive (i.e. requires less materials), and identifies between 30 and 107% more peptides at q≤0.01, than the FASP procedure. The peptides identified by SDS
