Two major challenges in proteomics are the large number of proteins and their broad dynamic range in the cell. We exploited the abundance-dependent Michaelis-Menten kinetics of trypsin digestion to selectively digest and deplete abundant proteins with a method we call DigDeAPr. We validated the depletion mechanism with known yeast protein abundances, and we observed greater than threefold improvement in low-abundance human-protein identification and quantitation metrics. This methodology should ...[more]
