Proteomics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteins, particularly their structures and functions.[1][2] Proteins are vital parts of living organisms, as they are the main components of the physiological metabolic pathways of cells. The term proteomics was first coined in 1997[3] to make an analogy with genomics, the study of the genome. The word proteome is a blend of protein and genome, and was coined by Marc Wilkins in 1994 while working on the concept as a PhD student.[4][5]

The proteome is the entire set of proteins,[4] produced or modified by an organism or system. This varies with time and distinct requirements, or stresses, that a cell or organism undergoes. Proteomics is an interdisciplinary domain formed on the basis of the research and development of the Human Genome Project;[citation needed] it is also emerging scientific research and exploration of proteomes from the overall level of intracellular protein composition, structure, and its own unique activity patterns. It is an important component of functional genomics.

While proteomics generally refers to the large-scale experimental analysis of proteins, it is often specifically used for protein purification and mass spectrometry.

Complexity of the problem

After genomics and transcriptomics, proteomics is the next step in the study of biological systems. It is more complicated than genomics because an organism's genome is more or less constant, whereas the proteome differs from cell to cell and from time to time. Distinct genes are expressed in different cell types, which means that even the basic set of proteins that are produced in a cell needs to be identified.

In the past this phenomenon was done by mRNA analysis, but it was found not to correlate with protein content.[6][7] It is now known that mRNA is not always translated into protein,[8] and the amount of protein produced for a given amount of mRNA depends on the gene it is transcribed from and on the current physiological state of the cell. Proteomics confirms the presence of the protein and provides a direct measure of the quantity present.

Post-translational modifications

Not only does the translation from mRNA cause differences, but many proteins are also subjected to a wide variety of chemical modifications after translation. Many of these post-translational modifications are critical to the protein's function.

Phosphorylation

One such modification is phosphorylation, which happens to many enzymes and structural proteins in the process of cell signaling. The addition of a phosphate to particular amino acids—most commonly serine and threonine[9] mediated by serine/threonine kinases, or more rarely tyrosine mediated by tyrosine kinases—causes a protein to become a target for binding or interacting with a distinct set of other proteins that recognize the phosphorylated domain.

Because protein phosphorylation is one of the most-studied protein modifications, many "proteomic" efforts are geared to determining the set of phosphorylated proteins in a particular cell or tissue-type under particular circumstances. This alerts the scientist to the signaling pathways that may be active in that instance.

Ubiquitination

Ubiquitin is a small protein that can be affixed to certain protein substrates by enzymes called E3 ubiquitin ligases. Determining which proteins are poly-ubiquitinated helps understand how protein pathways are regulated. This is, therefore, an additional legitimate "proteomic" study. Similarly, once a researcher determines which substrates are ubiquitinated by each ligase, determining the set of ligases expressed in a particular cell type is helpful.

Additional modifications

Listing all the protein modifications that might be studied in a "proteomics" project would require a discussion of most of biochemistry. Therefore, a short list illustrates the complexity of the problem. In addition to phosphorylation and ubiquitination, proteins can be subjected to (among others) methylation, acetylation, glycosylation, oxidation and nitrosylation. Some proteins undergo all these modifications, often in time-dependent combinations. This illustrates the potential complexity of studying protein structure and function.

Distinct proteins are made under distinct settings

Even studying a particular cell type, that cell may make different sets of proteins at different times, or under different conditions. Furthermore, as mentioned, any one protein can undergo a wide range of post-translational modifications.

Therefore a "proteomics" study can become complex, even if the topic of the study is restricted. In more ambitious settings, such as when a biomarker for a tumor is sought – when the proteomics scientist is obliged to study sera samples from multiple cancer patients – the amount of complexity that must be dealt with is as great as in any modern biological project.

Limitations of genomics and proteomics studies

Proteomics gives a different level of understanding than genomics for many reasons:

  • the level of transcription of a gene gives only a rough estimate of its level of translation into a protein.[10] An mRNA produced in abundance may be degraded rapidly or translated inefficiently, resulting in a small amount of protein.
  • as mentioned above many proteins experience post-translational modifications that profoundly affect their activities; for example some proteins are not active until they become phosphorylated. Methods such as phosphoproteomics and glycoproteomics are used to study post-translational modifications.
  • many transcripts give rise to more than one protein, through alternative splicing or alternative post-translational modifications.
  • many proteins form complexes with other proteins or RNA molecules, and only function in the presence of these other molecules.
  • protein degradation rate plays an important role in protein content.[11]

Reproducibility. Proteomics experiments conducted in one laboratory are not easily reproduced in another. For instance, Peng et al.[12] have identified 1504 yeast proteins in a proteomics experiment of which only 858 were found in a similar previous study.[13] Further, the previous study identified 607 proteins that were not found by Peng et al. This translates to a reproducibility of 57% (Peng vs. Washburn) to 59% (Washburn vs. Peng).

Methods of studying proteins

Protein Detection with Immunoassays

ELISA. The Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay has been used for decades to detect and quantitatively measure proteins in samples.

MSIA. The use of mass spectrometry is the gold standard for both discovery and quantitative proteomics. Randall Nelson pioneered the use of immunoassays with mass spectrometry in 1995.

SISCAPA. Stable Isotope Standard Capture with Anti-Peptide Antibodies, is a term introduced by Leigh Anderson

Identifying proteins that are post-translationally modified

One way a particular protein can be studied is to develop an antibody specific to that modification. For example, there are antibodies that only recognize certain proteins when they are tyrosine-phosphorylated, known as phospho-specific antibodies. Also, there are antibodies specific to other modifications. These can be used to determine the set of proteins that have undergone the modification of interest.

For sugar modifications, such as glycosylation of proteins, certain lectins have been discovered that bind sugars. These too can be used.[citation needed]

A more common way to determine post-translational modification of interest is to subject a complex mixture of proteins to electrophoresis in two-dimensions, which simply means that the proteins are electrophoresed first in one direction, and then in another, which allows small differences in a protein to be visualized by separating a modified protein from its unmodified form. This methodology is known as "two-dimensional gel electrophoresis".[14]

Recently, another approach has been developed called PROTOMAP, which combines SDS-PAGE with shotgun proteomics to enable detection of changes in gel-migration, such as those caused by proteolysis or post translational modification.[15]

Determining the existence of proteins in complex mixtures

Classically, antibodies to particular proteins or to their modified forms have been used in biochemistry and cell biology studies. These are among the most common tools used by practicing biologists today.

For more quantitative determinations of protein amounts, techniques such as ELISAs can be used.[citation needed]

For proteomic study, more recent techniques such as matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI)[14] have been employed for rapid determination of proteins in particular mixtures and increasingly electrospray ionization (ESI).[citation needed]

More recently, thermal protease resistance was exploited in a novel proteomic assay called Fast parallel proteolysis (FASTpp), which enabled detection of specific proteins in E. coli lysate and might be used in the future to detect proteomic perturbations in cancer or mechanistic effects of point mutations.[16]

Computational methods in studying protein biomarkers

Computational predictive models[17] have shown that extensive and diverse feto-maternal protein trafficking occurs during pregnancy and can be readily detected non-invasively in maternal whole blood. This computational approach circumvented a major limitation, the abundance of maternal proteins interfering with the detection of fetal proteins, to fetal proteomic analysis of maternal blood. Computational models can use fetal gene transcripts previously identified in maternal whole blood to create a comprehensive proteomic network of the term neonate. Such work shows that the fetal proteins detected in pregnant woman’s blood originate from a diverse group of tissues and organs from the developing fetus. The proteomic networks contain many biomarkers that are proxies for development and illustrate the potential clinical application of this technology as a way to monitor normal and abnormal fetal development.

An information theoretic framework has also been introduced for biomarker discovery, integrating biofluid and tissue information.[18] This new approach takes advantage of functional synergy between certain biofluids and tissues with the potential for clinically significant findings not possible if tissues and biofluids were considered individually. By conceptualizing tissue-biofluid as information channels, significant biofluid proxies can be identified and then used for guided development of clinical diagnostics. Candidate biomarkers are then predicted based on information transfer criteria across the tissue-biofluid channels. Significant biofluid-tissue relationships can be used to prioritize clinical validation of biomarkers.[citation needed]

Establishing protein–protein interactions

Most proteins function in collaboration with other proteins, and one goal of proteomics is to identify which proteins interact. This is especially useful in determining potential partners in cell signaling cascades.

Several methods are available to probe protein–protein interactions. The traditional method is yeast two-hybrid analysis. New methods include protein microarrays, immunoaffinity chromatography followed by mass spectrometry, dual polarisation interferometry, Microscale Thermophoresis and experimental methods such as phage display and computational methods

Practical applications of proteomics

One major development to come from the study of human genes and proteins has been the identification of potential new drugs for the treatment of disease. This relies on genome and proteome information to identify proteins associated with a disease, which computer software can then use as targets for new drugs. For example, if a certain protein is implicated in a disease, its 3D structure provides the information to design drugs to interfere with the action of the protein. A molecule that fits the active site of an enzyme, but cannot be released by the enzyme, inactivates the enzyme. This is the basis of new drug-discovery tools, which aim to find new drugs to inactivate proteins involved in disease. As genetic differences among individuals are found, researchers expect to use these techniques to develop personalized drugs that are more effective for the individual.[19]

Proteomics is also used to reveal complex plant-insect interactions that help identify candidate genes involved in the defensive response of plants to herbivory.[20][21][22]

Biomarkers

The National Institutes of Health has defined a biomarker as “a characteristic that is objectively measured and evaluated as an indicator of normal biological processes, pathogenic processes, or pharmacologic responses to a therapeutic intervention.”[23][24]

Understanding the proteome, the structure and function of each protein and the complexities of protein–protein interactions is critical for developing the most effective diagnostic techniques and disease treatments in the future.

An interesting use of proteomics is using specific protein biomarkers to diagnose disease. A number of techniques allow to test for proteins produced during a particular disease, which helps to diagnose the disease quickly. Techniques include western blot, immunohistochemical staining, enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) or mass spectrometry.[14][25] Secretomics, a subfield of proteomics that studies secreted proteins and secretion pathways using proteomic approaches, has recently emerged as an important tool for the discovery of biomarkers of disease.[26]

Proteogenomics

In what is now commonly referred to as proteogenomics, proteomic technologies such as mass spectrometry are used for improving gene annotations. Parallel analysis of the genome and the proteome facilitates discovery of post-translational modifications and proteolytic events,[27] especially when comparing multiple species (comparative proteogenomics).[28]

Current research methodologies

Fluorescence two-dimensional differential gel electrophoresis (2-D DIGE)[29] can be used to quantify variation in the 2-D DIGE process and establish statistically valid thresholds for assigning quantitative changes between samples.[29]

Comparative proteomic analysis can reveal the role of proteins in complex biological systems, including reproduction. For example, treatment with the insecticide triazophos causes an increase in the content of brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens (Stål)) male accessory gland proteins (Acps) that can be transferred to females via mating, causing an increase in fecundity (i.e. birth rate) of females.[30] To identify changes in the types of accessory gland proteins (Acps) and reproductive proteins that mated female planthoppers received from male planthoppers, researchers conducted a comparative proteomic analysis of mated N. lugens females.[31] The results indicated that these proteins participate in the reproductive process of N. lugens adult females and males.[31]

Proteome analysis of Arabidopsis peroxisomes[32] has been established as the major unbiased approach for identifying new peroxisomal proteins on a large scale.[32]

There are many approaches to characterizing the human proteome, which is estimated to contain between 20,000 and 25,000 non-redundant proteins. The number of unique protein species will likely increase by between 50,000 and 500,000 due to RNA splicing and proteolysis events, and when post-translational modification are also considered, the total number of unique human proteins is estimated to range in the low millions.[33][34]

In addition, first promising attempts to decipher the proteome of animal tumors have recently been reported.[14]

Bioinformatics for Proteomics

The biggest problem in proteomics research is related to data analysis. As there is a severe need to create an environment where different stake holders (computer scientists, biologists and the people who collect data) can work closely together. So that some necessary analytical tools can be developed and they can be used to interpret data. It is a known fact that the analysis and processing of proteomics data is very complex. The results, which are obtained on different platforms or in different laboratories, are unmanageable due to the lack of standards for data formats, data processing parameters and data quality assessment. Accurate and precise, consistent and reliable, and transparent data processing and analysis are vital parts of proteomics workflows. Now with the advancement of technology it is possible to produce big amount of data but currently there are massive challenges to discover that how to actually analyze this big amount of data and to produce real biological insights using this data.[35]

Proteins can be chemically modified in different ways after synthesis and they are essential parts of living organisms. In Cancer Research, scientist believes that Proteomics is a fast growing science and it provides support in cancer diagnosis and further in treatment as well. Although, there are many known potential difficulties where the sensitivity, specificity, and reproducibility of the available molecular markers are unsatisfactory and do not match the expectations. Scientist still believe, however, that advancements in proteomics technology will bring efficient and reliable early cancer diagnosis and treatment in the future.[citation needed]

The human genome consists of the complete set of genes required to build a functional human being. The genome, however, is just a source of information—just raw information. To function, this information must be expressed in protein. The very first stage of gene expression is the transcription of genes, later followed by the translation of messenger RNA to actually produce proteins. The term proteome basically describes the entire set of proteins expressed by a given genome, cell, tissue, or organism at any one time. The proteome is much more complex than either the genome or the transcriptome.

As each protein can be chemically modified in different ways after synthesis, depending on its structure and the way it folds, most proteins have added carbohydrate groups. Some proteins have phosphorylated, acetylated, or methylated groups added. The functions of the protein depends on the folded structure and the folded shape or structure of a proteins specified by its amino acid sequence. At cellular level, most of our cells have the same genome, despite of the cell type, developmental stage or environmental conditions. The proteome, however, being dynamic, usually differs significantly in these varied circumstances and conditions. It can differ due to different gene expression patterns or different protein modification patterns.[36]

The study of proteom gives a better understanding of an organism than genomics. In a cell, proteins represent the actual functional molecules. The changes that happens at the DNA level, it affects the proteins. E.g., if mutations occur in the DNA, the proteins are eventually affected. Drugs are the same: when they have favorable effects, they do so by interacting with proteins.[36]

Structural proteomics

Structural proteomics includes the analysis of protein structures at large-scale. It compares protein structures and helps identify functions of newly discovered genes. The structural analysis also helps to understand that where drugs bind to proteins and also show where proteins interact with each other. This understanding is achieved using different technologies such as X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy.[36]

Expression proteomics

Expression proteomics includes the analysis of protein expression at larger scale. It helps identify main proteins in a particular sample, and those proteins differentially expressed in related samples—such as diseased vs. healthy tissue. If a protein is found only in a diseased sample then it can be a useful drug target or diagnostic marker. Proteins with same or similar expression profiles may also be functionally related. There are technologies such as 2D-PAGE and mass spectrometry that are used in expression proteomics.[36]

Interaction proteomics

It is the analysis of protein interactions at larger scale. The characterization of protein-protein interactions are useful to determine the protein functions and it also explains the way proteins assemble in bigger complexes. Technologies such as affinity purification, mass spectrometry, and the yeast two-hybrid system are particularly useful in interaction proteomics.[36]

Proteome analysis techniques are not simple and straightforward as those used in transcriptomics. The benefit of proteomics, however, is that it deals with the real functional molecules of the cells. It is known that Strong gene expression results in an abundant mRNA but it does not necessarily mean that the corresponding protein is also abundant. In proteomics things are not so simple as one gene does not always produce the same protein. The genes usually consist of a series of sub structures, which are called exons. These sub structures can be joined in a variety of ways, which helps to give momentum to a whole series of very similar but different proteins. Further increasing complications, once proteins are made, they are ornamented with different other chemicals. These chemicals can be phosphate, sugars or fats. The affect of the decorations is so severe on the function of protein, for example phosphate normally behaves as an on-off switch and sugars usually tells the proteins where to go and attach in the cell. Therefore, it was comparatively very simple and easy to sequence human genome as there are only 46 molecules and they are made up of 4 building blocks or letters (A,C,G,T) where as proteins have 20 building blocks and each of which can be customized or ornamented after the protein is built. Hence, proteome have to deal with ca. 30,000 genes that can be arranged to give some 800,000 proteins that can be modified and decorated with over 300 different chemicals. Additionally, proteomics also describe the nature of proteins, where they are being produced in a particular cell type and at a specific time. The way they are modified in the cell and the location where they are modified and also with whom they are in contact. Finally, the most difficult thing, is to determine the function of the protein.[36]

Proteomics and System Biology

Proteomics has recently come into the act as a promising force to transform biology and medicine. It is becoming increasingly apparent that changes in mRNA expression correlate poorly with protein expression changes. Proteins changes enormously in patterns of expressions across developmental and physiological responses. Proteins also face changes on the act of environmental perturbations. Proteins are the actual effectors driving cell behavior. The field of proteomics strives to characterize protein structure and function, protein-protein,protein-nucleic acid, protein-lipid, and enzyme-substrate interactions, protein processing and folding, protein activation, cellular and sub-cellular localization, protein turnover and synthesis rates, and even promoter usage. Integrating proteomic data with information such as gene, mRNA and metabolic profiles helps in better understanding of how the system works.[37]

Current Proteomic Technologies

Proteomics has steadily gained momentum over the past decade with the evolution of several approaches. Few of these are new and others build on traditional methods. Mass spectrometry-based methods and micro arrays are the most common technologies for large-scale study of proteins.

Mass Spectrometry and Protein Profiling

There are 2 mass spectrometry based methods currently used for protein profiling. The more established and widespread method uses high resolution, 2 dimensional electrophoresis to separate proteins from different samples in parallel, followed by selection and staining of differentially expressed proteins to be identified by mass spectrometry. Despite the advances in 2DE and its maturity, it has its limits as well. The central concern is the inability to resolve all the proteins within a sample, given their dramatic range in expression level and differing properties.[37]

The second quantitative approach uses stable isotope tags to differentially label proteins from two different complex mixtures. Here, the proteins within a complex mixture are labeled first isotopically, and then digested to yield labeled peptides. The labeled mixtures are then combined, peptides separated by multidimensional liquid chromatography and analyzed by tandem mass spectrometry. Isotope coded affinity tag (ICAT) reagents are the widely used isotope tags. In this method, the cysteine residues of proteins get covalently attached to the ICAT reagent, thereby reducing the complexity of the mixtures omitting the non-cysteine residues. Quantitative proteomics using stable isotopic tagging is an increasingly useful tool in modern development. Firstly, chemical reactions have been used to introduce tags into specific sites or proteins, for the purpose of probing specific protein functionalities. The isolation of phosphorylated peptides have been achieved using isotopic labeling and selective chemistries to capture the fraction of protein among complex mixture. Secondly, the ICAT technology was used to differentiate between partially purified or purified macromolecular complexes such as large RNA polymerase II pre initiation complex and the proteins complexed with yeast transcription factor. Thirdly, ICAT labeling was recently combined with chromatin isolation to identify and quantify chromatin-associated proteins. Finally ICAT reagents are useful for proteomic profiling of cellular organelles and specific cellular fractions.[37]

Protein Chips

Balancing the use of mass spectrometers in proteomics and in medicine is the use of protein micro arrays. The aim behind protein micro arrays is to print thousands of protein detecting features, for the interrogation of biological samples. Antibody arrays are an example in which a host of different antibodies are arrayed to detect their respective antigens from a sample of human blood. Another approach is the arraying of multiple protein types for the study of properties like protein-DNA, protein-protein and protein-ligand interactions. Ideally, the functional proteomic arrays would contain the entire complement of the proteins of a given organism. The first version of such arrays consisted of 5000 purified proteins from yeast deposited onto glass microscopic slides. Despite the success of first chip, it was a greater challenge for protein arrays to be implemented. Proteins are inherently much more difficult to work with than DNA. They have a broad dynamic range, less stable than DNA and their structure is difficult to preserve on glass slides, though they are essential for most assays. The global ICAT technology has striking advantages over protein chip technologies.[37]

Reverse Phased Protein Microarrays

This is a promising and newer microarray application for the diagnosis, study and treatment of complex diseases such as cancer. The technology merges laser capture microdissection (LCM) with micro array technology, to produce reverse phase protein microarrays. In this type of microarrays, the whole collection of protein themselves are immobilized with the intent of capturing various stages of disease within an individual patient. When used with LCM, reverse phase arrays can monitor the fluctuating state of proteome among different cell population within a small area of human tissue. This is useful for profiling the status of cellular signaling molecules, among a cross section of tissue that includes both normal and cancerous cells. This approach is useful in monitoring the status of key factors in normal prostate epithelium and invasive prostate cancer tissues. LCM then dissects these tissue and protein lysates were arrayed onto nitrocellulose slides, which were probed with specific antibodies. This method can track all kinds of molecular events and can compare diseased and healthy tissues within the same patient enabling the development of treatment strategies and diagnosis. The ability to acquire proteomics snapshots of neighboring cell populations, using reverse phase microarrays in conjunction with LCM has a number of applications beyond the study of tumors. The approach can provide insights into normal physiology and pathology of all the tissues and is invaluable for characterizing developmental processes and anomalies.[37]

Emerging trends in Proteomics

A number of emerging concepts have the potential to improve current features of proteomics. Obtaining absolute quantification of proteins and monitoring post translational modifications are the two tasks that impacts the understanding of protein function in healthy and diseased cells. Advances in quantitative proteomics would clearly enable more in-depth analysis of cellular systems. For many cellular events the protein concentrations do not change, rather their function is modulated by post transitional modifications (PTM). Methods of monitoring PTM are an underdeveloped area in proteomics. Selecting a particular subset of protein for analysis substantially reduces protein complexity, making it advantageous for diagnostic purposes where blood is the starting material. Another important aspect of proteomics, yet not addressed, is that, proteomics methods should focus on studying proteins in the context of the environment. The increasing use of chemical cross linkers, introduced into living cell to fix protein-protein, protein-DNA and other interactions may ameliorate this problem partially. The challenge is to identify suitable methods of preserving relevant interactions. Another goal for studying protein is to develop more sophisticated methods to image proteins and other molecules in living cells and real time.[37]

Human Plasma Proteome

Characterizing human plasma proteome has become a major goal in proteomics arena. The plasma proteome is without doubt the most complex proteome in the human body. It contains immunoglobulin, cytokines, protein hormones, secreted proteins and indicative of infection on top of resident, hemostatic proteins. It also contains tissue leakage proteins due to the blood circulation through different tissues in the body. The blood thus contains information on physiological of all tissues and combined with its accessibility makes the blood proteome invaluable for medical purposes. With the recent advancement in proteomics, characterizing the proteome of blood plasma is a daunting challenge. Temporal and spatial dynamics further complicated the study of human plasma proteome. The turnover of some proteins is quite faster than others and protein content of artery may substantially vary from that of vein. All these differences make even the simplest proteomic task of cataloging the proteome seem out of reach. To tackle this problem, priorities needs to be established. Capturing the most meaningful subset of proteins among the entire proteome to generate diagnostic tool is one such priority. Secondly, since cancer is associated with enhanced glycosylation of proteins, methods that focus on this part of proteins will also be useful. Again: multiparameter analysis best reveals a pathological state. As these technologies improve, the disease profiles should be continually related to respective gene expression changes.[37]
