Deciphering the function of Angiomotin in trophoblast cells

ABSTRACT: Trophectoderm-specific expression of Angiomotin (AMOT) in pre-implantation embryos followed by its unique expression in the post-implantation ectoplacental cone that harbors the trophoblast stem cell niche prompted our investigation on the function of AMOT in trophoblast cells. Using the in vitro trophoblast stem cell culture model, we established differentiation dependent up-regulation of AMOT expression in trophoblast cells. To understand the function of AMOT in trophoblast cells mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis was employed to identify the AMOT interactome within the trophoblast proteome. This approach utilized immunoprecipitation of endogenous AMOT followed by fractionation on SDS-PAGE and subsequently subjecting the tryptic digested excised gel bands to mass spectrometry.
