PBC, an easy and efficient strategy for high-throughput protein C-terminome profiling.

ABSTRACT: High-throughput profiling of protein C-termini is still a challenging task. Proteomics provides a powerful technology for systematic and high-throughput study of protein C-termini. Various C-terminal peptide enrichment strategies based on chemical derivatization and chromatography separation have been reported. However, they are still costly and time-consuming, with low enrichment efficiency for C-terminal peptides. In this study, by taking advantage of the high reaction selectivity of 2-pyridinecarboxaldehyde (2-PCA) with an α-amino group on peptide N-terminus and high affinity between biotin and streptavidin, we developed a 2-PCA- and biotin labeling-based C-terminomic (PBC) strategy for a high-efficiency and high-throughput analysis of protein C-terminome. Triplicates of PBC experiments identified a total of 1,975 C-terminal peptides corresponding to 1,190 proteins from 293 T cell line, which is 180% higher than the highest reported number of C-terminal peptides identified from mammalian cells by chemical derivatization-based C-terminomics study. The enrichment efficiency (68%) is the highest among the C-terminomics methods currently reported. In addition, we not only uncovered 50 proteins with truncated C-termini which were significantly enriched in extracellular exosome, vesicle, and ribosome by a bioinformatic analysis but also systematically characterized the whole PTMs on C-terminal in 293 T cells, suggesting PBC as a powerful tool for protein C-terminal degradomics and PTMs investigation. In conclusion, the PBC strategy would benefit high-efficiency and high-throughput profiling of protein C-terminome.

Project description:Glycoproteins play key roles in various molecular and cellular functions and are among the most difficult to analyze biomolecules on account of their microheterogeneity, non-template-driven synthesis, and low abundances. The stability, serum half-life, immunogenicity, and biological activity of therapeutic glycoproteins, including antibodies, vaccines, and biomarkers, are regulated by their glycosylation profile. Thus, there is increasing demand for the qualitative and quantitative characterization and validation of glycosylation on glycoproteins. One of the most important derivatization processes for the structural characterization of released glycans by mass spectrometry (MS) is permethylation. We have recently developed a permethylation strategy in microscale that allows facile permethylation of glycans and permits the processing of large sample sets in nanogram amounts through high-throughput sample handling. Here, we are reporting the wide potential of micropermethylation-based high-throughput structural analysis of glycans from various sources, including human plasma, mammalian cells, and purified glycoproteins, through an automated tandem electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MSn) platform. The glycans released from the plasma, cells, and glycoproteins are permethylated in microscale in a 96-well plate or microcentrifuge tube and isolated by a C18 tip-based cleanup through a shorter and simple process. We have developed a workflow to accomplish an in-depth automated structural characterization MS program for permethylated N/O-glycans through an automated high-throughput multistage tandem MS acquisition. We have demonstrated the utility of this workflow using the examples of sialic acid linkages and bisecting GlcNAc (N-acetylglucosamine) on the glycans. This approach can automate the high-throughput screening of glycosylation on large sample sets of glycoproteins, including clinical glycan biomarkers and glycoprotein therapeutics.

Project description:BackgroundIntellectual disability (ID) is characterised by an extreme genetic heterogeneity. Several hundred genes have been associated to monogenic forms of ID, considerably complicating molecular diagnostics. Trio-exome sequencing was recently proposed as a diagnostic approach, yet remains costly for a general implementation.MethodsWe report the alternative strategy of targeted high-throughput sequencing of 217 genes in which mutations had been reported in patients with ID or autism as the major clinical concern. We analysed 106 patients with ID of unknown aetiology following array-CGH analysis and other genetic investigations. Ninety per cent of these patients were males, and 75% sporadic cases.ResultsWe identified 26 causative mutations: 16 in X-linked genes (ATRX, CUL4B, DMD, FMR1, HCFC1, IL1RAPL1, IQSEC2, KDM5C, MAOA, MECP2, SLC9A6, SLC16A2, PHF8) and 10 de novo in autosomal-dominant genes (DYRK1A, GRIN1, MED13L, TCF4, RAI1, SHANK3, SLC2A1, SYNGAP1). We also detected four possibly causative mutations (eg, in NLGN3) requiring further investigations. We present detailed reasoning for assigning causality for each mutation, and associated patients' clinical information. Some genes were hit more than once in our cohort, suggesting they correspond to more frequent ID-associated conditions (KDM5C, MECP2, DYRK1A, TCF4). We highlight some unexpected genotype to phenotype correlations, with causative mutations being identified in genes associated to defined syndromes in patients deviating from the classic phenotype (DMD, TCF4, MECP2). We also bring additional supportive (HCFC1, MED13L) or unsupportive (SHROOM4, SRPX2) evidences for the implication of previous candidate genes or mutations in cognitive disorders.ConclusionsWith a diagnostic yield of 25% targeted sequencing appears relevant as a first intention test for the diagnosis of ID, but importantly will also contribute to a better understanding regarding the specific contribution of the many genes implicated in ID and autism.
