Profiling Cysteine Reactivity and Oxidation in the Endoplasmic Reticulum.

ABSTRACT: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the initial site of biogenesis of secretory pathway proteins, including proteins localized to the ER, Golgi, lysosomes, intracellular vesicles, plasma membrane, and extracellular compartments. Proteins within the secretory pathway contain a high abundance of disulfide bonds to protect against the oxidative extracellular environment. These disulfide bonds are typically formed within the ER by a variety of oxidoreductases, including members of the protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family. Here, we establish chemoproteomic platforms to identify oxidized and reduced cysteine residues within the ER. Subcellular fractionation methods were utilized to enrich for the ER and significantly enhance the coverage of ER-localized cysteine residues. Reactive-cysteine pro
