[Protein Identification of Blood Nucleoprotein Complexes]
Abstract:
Circulating nucleoprotein complexes were isolated-from blood plasma by affinity chromatography using immobilized polyclonal anti-histone antibodies. It was found, that the main part of DNA from histone-contained nucleoprotein complexes have size 170-180 b.p., in blood of breast cancer patients DNA with size 170-180 b.p. and DNA more then 6 k.b.p. are presented in equal quantity. Proteins from circulating nucleoprotein complexes were identified using MALDI-TOF mass-spectrometry. It was shown that nucleoprotein complexes from blood of breast cancer patients contain tumor-specific proteins, such as LDOC1L, ADP/ATP translocase 3 and Lamellipodin. These data indicate, that a part of circulating extracellular DNA have tumor origin.

Nucleoproteins are protein complexes that contain nucleic acids, categorized as deoxyribonucleoproteins (DNPs) or ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) respectively. The nucleosome is a typical example of a DNP where nuclear DNA is associated with histone proteins. The major antigen for the Covid-19 virus SARS-CoV is an RNP that is critical...

The technique begins with separating proteins from the sample using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), followed by protein transfer, immunoblotting, and finally, protein detection.
