Molecular Spatiomics by Proximity Labeling.

ABSTRACT: Proximity labeling can be defined as an enzymatic "in-cell" chemical reaction that catalyzes the proximity-dependent modification of biomolecules in live cells. Since the modified proteins can be isolated and identified via mass spectrometry, this method has been successfully utilized for the characterization of local proteomes such as the sub-mitochondrial proteome and the proteome at membrane contact sites, or spatiotemporal interactome information in live cells, which are not "accessible" via conventional methods. Currently, proximity labeling techniques can be applied not only for local proteome mapping but also for profiling local RNA and DNA, in addition to showing great potential for elucidating spatial cell-cell interaction networks in live animal models. We believe that proximity
