Abstract:
Protein degradation is a critical component of all facets of cell biology, and recently methods have been developed to make use of targeted protein degradation as both an investigative tool and a potential therapeutic avenue. Mass spectrometry-based proteomic studies have allowed detailed characterization of changes in protein level and the biology underlying growth, development, and disease. Current methods and instrumentation allow identification and quantitative analysis of thousands of proteins in a single assay. The method described here involves cell lysis and digestion to peptides, labeling peptides with isobaric tagging TMT reagents, basic reversed phase fractionation, and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis of the enriched peptides.
