Development of an isotope-coded activity-based probe for the quantitative profiling of cysteine proteases.

چکیده
Quantification studies of complex protein mixtures have been restricted mainly to whole cell extracts. Here we describe the synthesis of two sets of isotope-coded activity-based probes that allow quantitative functional proteomics experiments on the cathepsins.

Activity profiling of vacuolar processing enzymes reveals a role for VPE during oomycete infection.
Vacuolar processing enzymes (VPEs) are important cysteine proteases that are implicated in the maturation of seed storage proteins, and programmed cell death during plant-microbe interactions and development. Here, we introduce a specific, cell-permeable, activity-based probe for VPEs. This probe is highly specific for all four Arabidopsis VPEs, and labeling is activity-dependent, as illustrate...
متن کاملSubfamily-Specific Fluorescent Probes for Cysteine Proteases Display Dynamic Protease Activities during Seed Germination.
Cysteine proteases are an important class of enzymes implicated in both developmental and defense-related programmed cell death and other biological processes in plants. Because there are dozens of cysteine proteases that are posttranslationally regulated by processing, environmental conditions, and inhibitors, new methodologies are required to study these pivotal enzymes individually. Here, we...
متن کاملIsotope-coded, iodoacetamide-based reagent to determine individual cysteine pK(a) values by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry.
Cysteine reactivity in enzymes is imparted to a large extent by the stabilization of the deprotonated form of the reduced cysteine (i.e., the thiolate) within the active site. Although this is likely to be an important chemical attribute of many thiol-based enzymes, including cysteine-dependent peroxidases (peroxiredoxins) and proteases, only relatively few pK(a) values have been determined exp...
متن کاملDesign and synthesis of visible isotope-coded affinity tags for the absolute quantification of specific proteins in complex mixtures.
Identification of proteins in complex mixtures by mass spectrometry is most useful when quantitative data is also obtained. We recently introduced isotope-coded affinity tags (ICAT reagents) for the relative quantification of proteins present in two or more biological samples. In this report, we describe a new generation of ICAT reagents that contain the following additional features: (1) a vis...
متن کاملIsotope-coded affinity tag approach to identify and quantify oxidant-sensitive protein thiols.
An approach is described for identifying and quantifying oxidant-sensitive protein thiols using a cysteine-specific, acid-cleavable isotope-coded affinity tag (ICAT) reagent (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA). The approach is based on the fact that only free cysteine thiols are susceptible to labeling by the iodoacetamide-based ICAT reagent, and that mass spectrometry can be used to quantita...
