Project description:We have presented a protocol that utilizes the triple malignant brain tumor domains of L3MBTL1 (3xMBT) to enrich proteins modified with mono- and di-methylated lysine from cell lysate. Cells in culture are grown with amino acids containing light or heavy stable isotopic labels. Methylated proteins are enriched by incubating cell lysates with 3xMBT, or with the binding-null D355N mutant as a negative control. Quantitative liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is then used to identify proteins that are specifically enriched by 3xMBT pull-down. Addition of a third isotopic label allows comparison of protein methylation between biological conditions. As an example yeast cells were prepared in SILAC media under three conditions. In two independent experiments either light or heavy cells are Rkm1 knock-out, while the other two are wild-type. 3xMBT was used to enrich methylated proteins from the light/heavy cells, with 3xMBT_D355N as a negative control using the medium cell lysate. Proteins were separated into three fractions by SDS-PAGE and analyzed by LC-MS/MS using an Orbitrap Velos. Data was analyzed with MaxQuant version 1.3.0.5 using default parameters except that mono- and di-methylation of lysine were included as variable modifications, the modification-specific false-discovery was set to 10%, and minimum peptide count for quantitative data set to 1. The amount of ribosomal protein Rpl23, a known substrate of Rkm1, is greatly decreased in 3xMBT pull-down from Rkm1 knock-out cells relative to wild-type. The level of heat shock protein SSA4 is also greatly reduced, suggesting that it may also be methylated by Rkm1.
Project description:C10:0 and C14:0 fatty acids were conjugated onto agarose beads, and used for pull-down with stable isotope (light: K0R0, heavy: K8R10) labeled Hela whole cell extract. C2:0 conjugated beads were used as control. Both forward (C2:0-light, C10:0 or C14:0-heavy) and reverse (C2:0-heavy, C10:0 or C14:0-light) labeling and pull-down experiments were performed.
Project description:Histone H3 peptides with acyl modification on either K9 or K27 were used for peptide pull-down with stable isotope (light: K0R0, heavy: K8R10) labeled Hela nuclear extract. The acyl modifications are: acetyl (Ac), propionyl (Pro), Butanoyl (But), crotonyl (Cr), 3-hydroxy butanoyl (bHB), succinyl (Su), Pentanoyl (Vl), Hexanoyl (Xho) and Myristoyl (Myr). Each modified peptide is compared with an unmodified peptide with the same amino acid sequence. Both forward (unmodified-light, acyl-heavy) and reverse (unmodified-heavy, acyl-light) labeling and pull-down experiments were performed.
Project description:triple SILAC phosphoproteomics experiment of Flp-In T-Rex HEK293 cells stably expressing either FLAG empty, PINK1-FLAG Kinase dead or PINK1-FLAG wild type were grown in ‘light’ (K0R0), ‘medium’ (K4R6) and ‘heavy’ (K8,R10) SILAC media, respectively.

Project description:Regular iPOND: 707789: C3-4 EdU, 707790: C3-4 Thymidine chase, 707791: A3-6 EdU, 707792: A3-6 Thymidine chase. SILAC iPOND: 1002641. Regular iPOND: WT MEF cell line (C3-4) and P286R MEF cells (A3-6) were labeled with EdU with (C3-4/A3-6 Thymidine chase) or without thymidine chase (C3-4/A3-6 EdU). Click reaction was performed to link a biotin to the EdU followed by pull down with streptavidin beads.
SILAC iPOND: P286R MEF cells (abundance 1002641 Light) were cultured in "light" medium containing [12C14N]-L-lysine and [12C14N]-L-arginine, and WT MEF cells (Abundance 1002641 Heavy) were cultured in "heavy" medium containing [13C15N]-L-lysine [13C15N]-L-arginine. After more than 99% cells were labeled with isotopes, equal amount of WT and P286R cells were combined followed by EdU labeling and click reaction.
Proteins captured were dissolved on SDS/PAGE and subjected to MS analysis.
Project description:SILAC quantitative mass spectrometry analysis on protein aggregates induced upon heat shock. Two separate performed analysis: A) control siRNA cells (light) with siRNA NEDD8 cells (heavy) and B) control cells (light) with MLN4924 treated cells (heavy). In all conditions cells were heat shocked at 43oC before cell mixing and aggregate isolation. Samples were solubilised in 2xSDS Laemmli buffer, 50ug of protein were run for 15min on 4-12% precast NuPAGE and coomassie blue stained. Lanes were cut in 2 gel pieces before in gel trypsin digestion and mass spectrometry analysis.
Project description:We analysed the impact of LARP6 depletion on the proteome of actively growing MDA-MB231 breast cancer cells by SILAC. For this purpose, Light (L) SILAC-labelled MDA-MB231 cells were treated with non-targeting control (NT) or two independent LARP6 siRNA (18i & 97i) for 72 hrs, before lysis in 4% SDS, 100mM Tris/HCl pH 7.5. In parallel, Heavy (H)SILAC labelled non-transfected MDA-MB231 cells were grown and lysed similarly. Each L labeled lysate was then mixed with an equal amount of H labelled lysate. Mixing of samples to the same H standard therefore allowed cross-comparison of different siRNA treatments from separate runs.
