Structure-Based Design with Tag-Based Purification and In-Process Biotinylation Enable Streamlined Development of SARS-CoV-2 Spike Molecular Probes.

ABSTRACT: Biotin-labeled molecular probes, comprising specific regions of the SARS-CoV-2 spike, would be helpful in the isolation and characterization of antibodies targeting this recently emerged pathogen. To develop such probes, we designed constructs incorporating an N-terminal purification tag, a site-specific protease-cleavage site, the probe region of interest, and a C-terminal sequence targeted by biotin ligase. Probe regions included full-length spike ectodomain as well as various subregions, and we also designed mutants to eliminate recognition of the ACE2 receptor. Yields of biotin-labeled probes from transient transfection ranged from ~0.5 mg/L for the complete ectodomain to >5 mg/L for several subregions. Probes were characterized for antigenicity and ACE2 recognition, and the structure of the spike ectodomain probe was determined by cryo-electron microscopy. We also characterized antibody-binding specificities and cell-sorting capabilities of the biotinylated probes. Altogether, structure-based design coupled to efficient purification and biotinylation processes can thus enable streamlined development of SARS-CoV-2 spike-ectodomain probes.

Project description:Fractionation is essential to achieving deep proteome coverage for sample multiplexing experiments where currently up to 18 samples can be analyzed concurrently. However, peptide fractionation (i.e., upstream of LC-MS/MS analysis) with a liquid chromatography system constrains sample processing as only a single sample can be fractionated at once. Here, we highlight the use of spin column-based methods which permit multiple multiplexed samples to be fractionated simultaneously. These methods require only a centrifuge and eliminate the need for a dedicated liquid chromatography system. We investigate peptide fractionation with strong anion exchange (SAX) and high-pH reversed phase (HPRP) spin columns, as well as a combination of both. In two separate experiments, we acquired deep proteome coverage (>8000 quantified proteins), while starting with <25 μg of protein per channel. Our datasets showcase the proteome alterations in two human cell lines resulting from treatment with inhibitors acting on the ubiquitin-proteasome system. We recommend this spin column-based peptide fractionation strategy for high-throughput screening applications or whenever a liquid chromatograph is not readily available. SIGNIFICANCE: Fractionation is a means to achieve deep proteome coverage for global proteomics analysis. Typical liquid chromatography systems may be a prohibitive expense for many laboratories. Here, we investigate prefractionation with strong anion exchange (SAX) and high-pH reversed phase (HPRP) spin columns, as well as a combination of both, as peptide fractionation methods. These spin columns have advantages over liquid chromatography systems, which include relative affordability, higher throughput capability, no carry over, and fewer potential instrument-related malfunctions. In two separate experiments, we acquired deep proteome coverage (>8000 quantified proteins), thereby showing the utility of each or a combination of both spin columns for global proteome analysis.
