Proteome-Wide Identification of RNA-Dependent Proteins in Lung Cancer Cells.

ABSTRACT: Following the concept of RNA dependence and exploiting its application in the R-DeeP screening approach, we have identified RNA-dependent proteins in A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells. RNA-dependent proteins are defined as proteins whose interactome depends on RNA and thus entails RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) as well as proteins in ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs) without direct RNA interaction. With this proteome-wide technique based on sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation and fractionation followed by quantitative mass spectrometry and bioinformatic analysis, we have identified 1189 RNA-dependent proteins including 170 proteins which had never been linked to RNA before. R-DeeP provides quantitative information on the fraction of a protein being RNA-dependent as well as it allows th
