Quantitative analysis of newly synthesized proteins.


ABSTRACT: Measuring proteome response to perturbations is critical for understanding the underlying mechanisms involved. Traditional quantitative proteomic methods are limited by the large numbers of proteins in the proteome and the mass spectrometer's dynamic range. A previous method uses the biorthogonal reagent azidohomoalanine (AHA), a methionine analog, for labeling, enrichment and detection of newly synthesized proteins (NSPs). Newly synthesized AHA proteins can be coupled to biotin via CuAAC-mediated click chemistry and enriched using avidin-based affinity purification. The combination of AHA-mediated NSP labeling with metabolic stable isotope labeling allows quantitation of low-abundant, newly secreted proteins by mass spectrometry (MS). However, the resulting multiplicity of labeling complicates NSP analysis. We developed a new NSP quantification strategy, called HILAQ (heavy isotope-labeled azidohomoalanine quantification), that uses a heavy isotope-labeled AHA molecule to enable NSP labeling, enrichment, identification and quantification. In addition, the AHA-peptide enrichment used in HILAQ improves both the identification and quantification of NSPs over AHA-protein enrichment. Here, we provide a description of the HILAQ method that includes procedures for (i) pulse-labeling and harvesting NSPs; (ii) addition of biotin by click reaction; (iii) protein precipitation; (iv) protein digestion; (v) enrichment of AHA-biotin peptides by NeutrAvidin beads and four-step elution; (vi) MS analysis; and (vii) data analysis for the identification and quantification of NSPs by ProLuCID and pQuant. We demonstrate our HILAQ approach by identifying NSPs from cell cultures, but we anticipate that it can be adapted for applications in animal models. The whole protocol takes ~6 d to complete.
