Abstract:
Identification and proteomic characterization of rare cell types within complex organ-derived cell mixtures is best accomplished by label-free quantitative mass spectrometry. High throughput is required to rapidly survey hundreds to thousands of individual cells to adequately represent rare populations. Here we present parallelized nanoflow dual-trap single-column liquid chromatography (nanoDTSC) operating at 15 min of total run time per cell with peptides quantified over 11.5 min using standard commercial components, thus offering an accessible and efficient LC solution to analyze 96 single cells per day. At this throughput, nanoDTSC quantified over 1000 proteins in individual cardiomyocytes and heterogeneous populations of single cells from the aorta.
