Abstract

A fundamental goal of systems biology is to seek a better understanding of the cell’s molecular mechanisms. Experimentalists most frequently rely upon reductionist methods to isolate and analyze discrete signaling compartments, including subcellular domains, organelles, and protein–protein interactions. Among the systems-biology community, there is a growing need to integrate multiple datasets to resolve complex cellular networks. In this chapter, we share our procedures for the discovery of integrated signaling networks, across multi-proteomic data. Demonstrating these procedures, we provide an integrated analysis of the cellular proteome and extracellular (secretome) of human glioma LN229.

Data 1

Example data and files have been provided. Mass spectrometry proteomics data have been deposited to the ProteomeXchange Consortium via PRIDE (dataset identifier PXD024001 and https://doi.org/10.6019/PXD024001). MaxQuant output combine files have been included in the supplement information (Supplemental Material, available on link.springer.com) (XLSX 62 kb)

Data 2

LN229 Cellular Proteome. LN229 were grown in high glucose DMEM with 10% FBS in a controlled environment (5% CO2, 36.5 °C). Cells were expanded to 5–150 mm plates, passed every 3–4 days, and harvested at 80% confluency. Cell were rinsed with phosphate buffered saline (PBS), plates were scraped in the presence of 500 μL of digestion buffer (1% deoxycholate, ammonium bicarbonate, pH 8), heated (100 °C, 5 min) and incubated on ice. The sample was briefly homogenized by probe sonication. Following reduction and alkylation, proteins were digested with sequence-grade modified trypsin (Promega, 1:50, 36.5 °C, 16 h, overnight). Samples were acidified with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) (2%) and centrifuged (12,000 RCF). Clarified supernatants were enriched using a commercial C18 solid phase extraction column (Isoelute). Peptides were dried and resuspended in 200 μL, pH 10, 20 mM ammonium formate. Peptides were fractionated by off-line HPLC (pH 10, 20 mM ammonium formate, Agilent 1100 HPLC, 50 μL/min) with a linear gradient, 10–40% acetonitrile/water (20 mM ammonium formate) over 60 min. Peptides were monitored by UV absorbance detection (218 nm). Separations were conducted with a custom packed column (100 x 1 mm, Waters XBridge C18, 5 μm); and eluates collected (1 min/fraction) with a Gilson 203B fraction collector. Samples (total of 30) were resuspended in HPLC-MS sample buffer (pH 2, 1% TFA, 1% acetic acid) in preparation for analysis. A total of 30 raw files are contained within this set (ZIP 3568 kb)

Data 3

LN229 Secretome: Condition media was collected from 4 x 150 mm plates with cells at 80% confluency. Cells were rinsed twice with PBS and replaced with 15 mL of serum-free Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM), and incubated (24 h). Conditioned media was collected, treated with protease inhibitor (complete Mini, Roche), and chilled (4 °C). This media was distributed across 5 conical tubes (50 mL) and diluted to 75% ethanol. Precipitated proteins were collected by centrifugation (8000 RCF, 15 min), decanted, and solubilized with digestion buffer (as above). Sample preparation steps were carried out as above, except for the omission of pH 10 off-line HPLC. Secretome data represents 4 HPLC-MS (biological replicate) runs (ZIP 2078 kb)

Data 4

Mass spectrometry and MaxQuant data analysis. Secretome and cellular proteome samples were analyzed using LTQ-ObitrapVelos (Thermofisher). Data dependent acquisition (DDA) parameters can be found within the instrumental Raw files. Datasets were searched with MaxQuant (v1.6.10.43). UniProt reference proteome (human, 9606, 15/05/2020). The complete set of parameters used for MaxQuant searches can be found in the parameters.txt file (combine -> txt -> parameters.txt) (XLSX 2194 kb)
