Biotinylation by antibody recognition-a method for proximity labeling.

ABSTRACT: The high-throughput detection of organelle composition and proteomic mapping of protein environment directly from primary tissue as well as the identification of interactors of insoluble proteins that form higher-order structures have remained challenges in biological research. We report a proximity-based labeling approach that uses an antibody to a target antigen to guide biotin deposition onto adjacent proteins in fixed cells and primary tissues, which allows proteins in close proximity to the target antigen to be captured and identified by mass spectrometry. We demonstrated the specificity and sensitivity of our method by examining the well-studied mitochondrial matrix. We then used the method to profile the dynamic interactome of lamin A/C in multiple cell and tissue types under variou
