  1. Introduction to Proteomics

  2. What is Proteomics? Proteomics - A newly emerging field of life science research that uses High Throughput (HT) technologies to display, identify and/or characterize all the proteins in a given cell, tissue or organism (I.e. the proteome).

  3. 3 Kinds of Proteomics • Expressional Proteomics • Electrophoresis, Protein Chips, DNA Chips, SAGE • Mass Spectrometry, Microsequencing • Functional Proteomics • HT Functional Assays, Ligand Chips • Yeast 2-hybrid, Deletion Analysis, Motif Analysis • Structural Proteomics • High throughput X-ray Crystallography/Modelling • High throughput NMR Spectroscopy/Modelling

  4. Expressional Proteomics 2-D Gel QTOF Mass Spectrometry

  5. Why Expressional Proteomics? Concerned with the display, measurement and analysis of global changes in protein expression Monitors global changes arising from application of drugs, pathogens or toxins Monitors changes arising from developmental, environmental or disease perturbations Applications in medical diagnostics and therapeutic drug monitoring

  6. Expressional Proteomics Prostate tumor Normal

  7. Expressional Proteomics

  8. Examples Jungblut PR et al., “Proteomics in Human Disease: Cancer, Heart and Infectious Disease” Electrophoresis 20:100-110 (1999) Zhukov TA et al., “Discovery of distinct protein profiles specific for lung tumors and pre-malignant lung lesions by SELDI”Lung Cancer 40:267-279 (2003) Ghaemmaghami S, et al., “Global analysis of protein expression in yeast” Nature 425:737-741 (2003).

  9. Functional Proteomics

  10. Why Functional Proteomics? Concerned with the identification and classification of protein functions, activities locations and interactions at a global level To compare organisms at a global level so as to extract phylogenetic information To understand the network of interactions that take place in a cell at a molecular level To predict the phenotypic response of a cell or organism to perturbations or mutations

  11. Functional Proteomics (in vitro) • Multi-well plate readers • Full automation/robotics • Fluorescent and/or chemi-luminescent detection • Small volumes (mL) • Up to 1536 wells/plate • Up to 200,000 tests/day • Mbytes of data/day

  12. Functional Proteomics

  13. Functional Proteomics In silico methods (bioinformatics) Genome-wide Protein Tagging Genome-wide Gene Deletion or Knockouts Random Tagged Mutagenisis or Transposon Insertion Yeast two-hybrid Methods Protein (Ligand) Chips

  14. Examples • Uetz P et al.,“A Comprehensive Analysis of Protein-Protein Interactions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae” Nature 403:623-627 (2000) • First example of whole proteome analysis • 957 putative interactions • 1004 of 6100 predicted proteins involved

  15. Examples • Huh, K et al.,“Global analysis of protein localization in budding yeast” Nature, 425:686-691(2003) • Used a collection of yeast strains expressing full-length, chromosomally tagged green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion proteins • Localized 75% of the yeast proteome, into 22 distinct subcellular localization categories • Provided localization information for 70% of previously unlocalized proteins

  16. Examples • Edwards JS & Palsson BO“Systems properties of the H. influenzae Rd metabolic genotype” J. Biol. Chem. 274:17410-17416 (1999) • First example of metabolic/phenotypic prediction using proteome-wide information • Converting sequence data to differential equations so as to predict biology/behavior

  17. Structural Proteomics • High Throughput protein structure determination via X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy or comparative molecular modeling

  18. Structural Proteomics:The Goal

  19. Why Structural Proteomics? • Structure Function • Structure Mechanism • Structure-based Drug Design • Solving the Protein Folding Problem • Keeps Structural Biologists Employed :D

  21. The Protein Fold Universe 500? 2000? 10000? How Big Is It??? 8 ?

  22. Protein Structure Initiative Organize all known protein sequences into sequence families Select family representatives as targets Solve the 3D structures of these targets by X-ray or NMR Build models for the remaining proteins via comparative (homology) modeling

  23. Protein Structure Initiative Organize and recruit interested structural biologists and structure biology centres from around the world Coordinate target selection Develop new kinds of high throughput techniques Solve, solve, solve, solve….
