1アルツハイマー病、パーキンソン病、ハンチントン病などの病態に関与するタンパク質のミスフォールディングによるアミロイド繊維の形成を知られている長い。最近では、アミロイドやアミロイド様線維形成が抗ウイルス自然免疫応答2ネクロトーシス3,4中を含む人間と低い有機体のシグナル伝達経路の一部であると示されています。酵母5,6などしたがって、実験室でこれらの繊維を検出する機能は重要です。現在、アミロイドとアミロイド様線維を検出する 3 つの主な方法があります: 染料、EM、および SDD 時代の使用。
コンゴ赤や Thioflavin T などの染料の使用では、急速な顕微鏡、分光法7を使用して容易に検出できるという利点を提供しています。しかし、コンゴ赤の場合、顕微鏡による検出には、繊維、または繊維のサイズを構成するタンパク質の特異性は提供しません。同様に、コンゴ赤または Thioflavin T のバインディングを蛋白質の複合体を検出する分光学の使用は、正または負の結果のみを提供します。
EM は、繊維と繊維の長さと直径の8について定量的な情報の存在の決定的な証拠を提供します。ただし、この方法では、非常に厳格な浄化が必要です。さらに、EM は高価な機器を使用する特殊な技術です。
SDD 時代は、SDS 耐性メガ ダルトン タンパク質やアミロイドのようなアミロイド繊維を含むを検出するために使用されています。多くの利点を提供しています。最初に、それは繊維の精製を必要としないし、peform9に簡単です。第二に、それは相対的なサイズおよび繊維の heterogenicity の量を含む繊維のサイズに関する定性的情報を提供します。ウェスタンブロッティングは、電気泳動後実行できます、ために、最後に、それは、SDD 時代は半変化、いくつかのエピトープが隠されたままにするそれに注意する必要がありますを任意のタンパク質、抗体がある存在を検出する簡単です抗体による検出を複雑になります。
最近では、受容体相互作用タンパク質キナーゼ 1 (RIPK1) と 3 (RIPK3) は、ネクロトーシス、壊死3のプログラムのフォームの間にプラットフォームをシグナルとして機能するフォーム アミロイド線維に報告されています。これらの繊維を勉強しながら私たちの研究室は、リネージュ キナーゼ ドメインのような (MLKL) を混合、別のネクロトーシス関連蛋白質がまた4アミロイド様線維を形成を示した。しかし、SDD の年齢を調べると、MLKL 繊維のサイズ登場登場お互い (図 1) と同じ RIPK1 と RIPK3 の繊維とは異なる。MLKL RIPK1/RIPK3 にバインド ネクロトーシス シグナリング複合 necrosome10と呼ばれる形成して知られているのでこれは予想外だった。
少なくとも 2 つの説明があります。最初に、2 つのまったく異なるアミロイドのような繊維がネクロトーシス、1 つ含む RIPK1/RIPK3 およびその他の含まれている MLKL の中にフォームがあります。第二に、含む RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL 可能性がありますネクロトーシス、MLKL 協会他の蛋白質との間に形成されるアミロイド様線維の 1 種類のみですそれは SDD 時代の間に電離する十分に弱いです。
これに対処するため二次元 (2 D) SDD 時代を実行することを提案します。SDD 時代安定アミロイドやアミロイド様線維は最初と 2 番目のディメンションの電気泳動中に同じの移行パターンをあります。膜へのタンパク質の転送、西部のしみの実施後、これは検出可能になります。安定した繊維は、シャープな斜めパターンを展示いたします。これからの逸脱は、繊維が SDS 電気泳動による変化を受けることを示唆するでしょう。

SDS-PAGE/Immunoblot Detection of A&beta; Multimers in Human Cortical Tissue Homogenates using Antigen-Epitope Retrieval

The anomalous folding and polymerization of the &beta;-amyloid (A&beta;) peptide is thought to initiate the neurodegenerative cascade in Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis1. A&beta; is predominantly a 40- or 42-amino acid peptide that is prone to self-aggregation into &beta;-sheet-rich amyloid fibrils that are found in the cores of cerebral senile plaques in Alzheimer's disease. Increasing evidence suggests that low molecular weight, soluble A&beta; multimers are more toxic than fibrillar A&beta; amyloid2. The identification and quantification of low- and high-molecular weight multimeric A&beta; species in brain tissue is an essential objective in Alzheimer's disease research, and the methods employed also can be applied to the identification and characterization of toxic multimers in other proteopathies3. Naturally occurring A&beta; multimers can be detected by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by immunoblotting with A&beta;-specific antibodies. However, the separation and detection of multimeric A&beta; requires the use of highly concentrated cortical homogenates and antigen retrieval in small pore-size nitrocellulose membranes. Here we describe a technique for the preparation of clarified human cortical homogenates, separation of proteins by SDS-PAGE, and antigen-epitope retrieval/Western blotting with antibody 6E10 to the N-terminal region of the A&beta; peptide. Using this protocol, we consistently detect A&beta; monomers, dimers, trimers, tetramers, and higher molecular weight multimers in cortical tissue from humans with Alzheimer's pathology.

Screening for Amyloid Aggregation by Semi-Denaturing Detergent-Agarose Gel Electrophoresis

Amyloid aggregation is associated with numerous protein misfolding pathologies and underlies the infectious properties of prions, which are conformationally self-templating proteins that are thought to have beneficial roles in lower organisms.  Amyloids have been notoriously difficult to study due to their insolubility and structural heterogeneity.  However, resolution of amyloid polymers based on size and detergent insolubility has been made possible by Semi-Denaturing Detergent-Agarose Gel Electrophoresis (SDD-AGE).  This technique is finding widespread use for the detection and characterization of amyloid conformational variants.  Here, we demonstrate an adaptation of this technique that facilitates its use in large-scale applications, such as screens for novel prions and other amyloidogenic proteins.  The new SDD-AGE method uses capillary transfer for greater reliability and ease of use, and allows any sized gel to be accomodated.  Thus, a large number of samples, prepared from cells or purified proteins, can be processed simultaneously for the presence of SDS-insoluble conformers of tagged proteins.

SDD-AGE is a useful technique for the detection and characterization of amyloid-like polymers in cells. Here we demonstrate an adaptation that makes this technique amenable to large-scale applications.

Consensus Brain-derived Protein, Extraction Protocol for the Study of Human and Murine Brain Proteome Using Both 2D-DIGE and Mini 2DE Immunoblotting

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) is a powerful tool to uncover proteome modifications potentially related to different physiological or pathological conditions. Basically, this technique is based on the separation of proteins according to their isoelectric point in a first step, and secondly according to their molecular weights by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). In this report an optimized sample preparation protocol for little amount of human post-mortem and mouse brain tissue is described. This method enables to perform both two-dimensional fluorescence difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) and mini 2DE immunoblotting. The combination of these approaches allows one to not only find new proteins and/or protein modifications in their expression thanks to its compatibility with mass spectrometry detection, but also a new insight into markers validation. Thus, mini-2DE coupled to western blotting permits to identify and validate post-translational modifications, proteins catabolism and provides a qualitative comparison among different conditions and/or treatments. Herein, we provide a method to study components of protein aggregates found in AD and Lewy body dementia such as the amyloid-beta peptide and the alpha-synuclein. Our method can thus be adapted for the analysis of the proteome and insoluble proteins extract from human brain tissue and mice models too. In parallel, it may provide useful information for the study of molecular and cellular pathways involved in neurodegenerative diseases as well as potential novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

A common protein extraction protocol using urea/thiourea/SDS buffer for human and mice brain tissue allows indentification of proteins by 2D-DIGE and their subsequent characterization by mini 2DE immunoblotting. This method enables one to obtain more reproducible and reliable results from human biopsies and experimental models.

Biochemical Purification and Proteomic Characterization of Amyloid Fibril Cores from the Brain

Proteinaceous fibrillar inclusions are key pathological hallmarks of multiple neurodegenerative diseases. In the early stages of Alzheimer&#39;s disease (AD), amyloid-beta peptides form protofibrils in the extracellular space, which act as seeds that gradually grow and mature into large amyloid plaques. Despite this basic understanding, current knowledge of the amyloid fibril structure, composition, and deposition patterns in the brain is limited. One major barrier has been the inability to isolate highly purified amyloid fibrils from brain extracts. Affinity purification and laser capture microdissection-based approaches have been previously used to isolate amyloids but are limited by the small quantity of material that can be recovered. This novel, robust protocol describes the biochemical purification of amyloid plaque cores using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solubilization with sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation and ultrasonication and yields highly pure fibrils from AD patients and AD model brain tissues. Mass spectrometry (MS)-based bottom-up proteomic analysis of the purified material represents a robust strategy to identify nearly all the primary protein components of amyloid fibrils. Previous proteomic studies of proteins in the amyloid coronae have revealed an unexpectedly large and functionally diverse collection of proteins. Notably, after refining the purification strategy, the number of co-purifying proteins was reduced by more than 10-fold, indicating the high purity of the isolated SDS insoluble material. Negative staining and immuno-gold electron microscopy allowed confirmation of the purity of these preparations. Further studies are required to understand the spatial and biological attributes that contribute to the deposition of these proteins into amyloid inclusions. Taken together, this analytical strategy is well-positioned to increase the understanding of amyloid biology.

This biochemical purification method with mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis facilitates the robust characterization of amyloid fibril cores, which may accelerate the identification of targets for preventing Alzheimer's disease.

Separating Protein with SDS-PAGE

Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate Poly-Acrylamide Gel Electrophoresis, or SDS-PAGE, is a widely-used technique for separating mixtures of proteins based on their size and nothing else. SDS, an anionic detergent, is used to produce an even charge across the length of proteins that have been linearized. By first loading them into a gel made of polyacrylamide and then applying an electric field to the gel, SDS-coated proteins are then separated. The electric field acts as the driving force, drawing the SDS coated proteins towards the anode with larger proteins moving more slowly than small proteins. In order to identify proteins by size, protein standards of a known size are loaded along with samples and run under the same conditions.
This video presents an introduction to SDS-PAGE by first explaining the theory behind it and later demonstrating its step-by-step procedure. Various experimental parameters, such as the polyacrylamide concentration and voltage applied to the gel are discussed. Downstream staining methods like Coomassie and silver stains are introduced, and variations of the method, like 2D gel electrophoresis are presented.

Two-Dimensional Gel Electrophoresis

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DGE) is a technique that can resolve thousands of biomolecules from a mixture. This technique involves two distinct separation methods that have been coupled together: isoelectric focusing (IEF) and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). This physically separates compounds across two axes of a gel by their isoelectric points (an electrochemical property) and their molecular weights.
The procedure in this video covers the main concepts of 2DGE and a general procedure for characterizing the composition of a complex protein solution. Three examples of this technique are shown in the applications section, including biomarker detection for disease initiation and progress, monitoring treatment in patients, and the study of proteins following posttranslational modification (PTM).
<div class="chapter_text" id="script_0">
Two-dimensional, or 2D, gel electrophoresis is a technique utilizing two distinct separation methods which can separate thousands of proteins from a single mixture. One of the techniques, SDS-PAGE or sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, cannot fully separate complex mixtures alone. 2D gel electrophoresis couples the SDS-PAGE to a second method, isoelectric focusing or IEF, which separates based on isoelectric points, allowing for the resolution of potentially all proteins in a cell lysate. This video will show the principles of 2D gel electrophoresis, a general procedure, and some of its biomedical applications.
</div>
<div class="chapter_text" id="script_1">
2D gel electrophoresis begins with IEF as the first dimension. Every protein has a pH value, called the isoelectric point or pI, where the net charge is zero. When a protein is subjected to an electric field, it will move toward the electrode with opposite charge. Samples of interest are loaded onto immobilized pH gradient, or IPG, strips which have embedded ampholytes, molecules containing both acidic and basic groups. An electric field is then applied to the pH gradient strip, causing the proteins to migrate until they reach the pH value matching their pI, where they lose their net charge.
Prior to running the second-dimension, the embedded proteins are treated with SDS, denaturing them and providing a uniform negative charge. Once completed, the IPG strips are placed onto a polyacrylamide gel. An applied electric field draws the proteins toward the anode, with larger proteins moving more slowly through the gel.
Once the protein mixture has been separated according to pI and molecular weight, the proteome map is visualized using stains, and proteins of interest are identified.
Now that we have discussed the principles of 2D gel electrophoresis, let&#39;s go over a typical laboratory procedure.
</div>
<div class="chapter_text" id="script_2">
Before the experiment can be performed, the proteins must be solubilized into media. Solubilization of the sample is achieved by de-aggregating proteins with a combination of chaotropic agents for disrupting hydrogen-bonding interactions, nonionic detergents to prevent altering of the proteins&#39; charge, reducing agents to break disulfide bonds, and buffers. To remove interfering abundant proteins and other molecules, the material is sequentially extracted by centrifugation, and collection of the resulting pellet; followed by treatment with endonuclease, an enzyme used to consume any DNA that would interfere with the experiment.
Once the proteins have been solubilized, IPG strips are prepared by rinsing with a strip-cleaning solution and left upside-down to dry. Each strip is then assigned a strip holder number. Once ready, the cellular extract is loaded onto the strips in a slow, sliding motion from the negative to the positive end. For the purpose of rehydration, damp blotting paper is placed on top of the electrode and under the gel strips; the IPG strips are then lined onto the IEF instrument. A high electric current is applied, and the proteins begin to migrate.
</div>
<div class="chapter_text" id="script_3">
Following completion of the first dimension, the gel for SDS-PAGE is prepared in a casting apparatus. The IPG strips are treated by placing them face down in SDS-containing equilibration buffer. The electrophoresis unit is readied with the addition of electrophoresis buffer. The treated IPG strips are collected using tweezers, placed on top of the gel plates, and sealed with agarose-sealing solution. A voltage source then applies an electric field, which is held until the fastest-moving proteins are 1 cm from the bottom of the gel.
After completion of the electrophoresis, the proteins must be visualized. Traditionally this is performed by staining with Coomassie blue or silver nitrate. Proteins of interest may be transferred from the gel, and analyzed by Western blot analysis.
A second identification approach involves excision of the proteins from the gel, digesting them, than analyzing them by mass spectrometry.
</div>
<div class="chapter_text" id="script_4">
Now that we&#39;ve reviewed a procedure, let&#39;s look at some of the uses for 2D gel electrophoresis.
One of the most common uses for this technique is the identification of molecules involved in disease initiation and progression. 2D gel electrophoresis, coupled with mass spectrometry, can detect the up- or down-regulation of specific proteins in diseased areas in comparison to healthy ones.
Additionally, 2D gel electrophoresis is useful in following the progress of patients&#39; response to a potential therapeutic drug. Specimens may be taken from patients at various timepoints following administration of the treatment. In this way, 2D gel electrophoresis coupled with Western blot or mass spectrometry analysis, can detect proteins associated with negative responses such as inflammation; or the absence of proteins in an alleviated state.
Another use for 2D gel electrophoresis is in the study of protein structure and function following posttranslational modification, or PTM, which are additions to proteins following their translation from mRNA. PTM&#39;s can regulate a variety of functions, including protein signaling, gene expression, or cause oxidative damage. 2D gel electrophoresis is sensitive to modifications such as methylation or acetylation, which can cause a shift in pI as well as the molecular weight.

Two-dimensional Gel Electrophoresis

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis is a high-resolution protein separation method first introduced by O&#39;&#160;Farrell and Klose in 1975. This method involves protein separation by two dimensions, mass and charge, making it more accurate than one-dimensional gel electrophoresis.
The first dimension separation uses the isoelectric focusing or IEF technique performed on immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strips that separate proteins according to their isoelectric points.
Biological samples, such as&#160; cells and tissues, are first prepared for IEF by treatment with a buffer containing urea, dithiothreitol, detergents, and ampholytes. Here, urea and detergent solubilize and denature the proteins. Dithiothreitol is a reducing agent that cleaves disulfide bonds. Ampholytes used in a suitable concentration solubilize the protein and maintain pH. The buffer also rehydrates the IPG strip that helps it absorb the proteins before their charge-based separation.
Proteins are amphoteric molecules with positive and negative charges. The amphoteric protein molecules migrate on the pH gradient of the IPG strip under the electric current. Once the proteins reach their isoelectric point, they immobilize because, at this point, they have no net charge. IPG strips have a fixed pH gradient; for instance, strips with a smaller pH range (for example, pH 4-7) can detect proteins with higher accuracy than those with a broader range (pH 3-10). Once the proteins separate, the IPG strips are treated with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) buffer to proceed to the next phase, i.e., mass-based separation using SDS-PAGE (polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis). SDS covers the uncharged protein on the IPG strips with a negative charge, and glycerol reduces electroendosmosis which helps the transfer of proteins from the first to the second dimension.
Generally, bands on the gel can be visualized upon staining. Sometimes radiolabelled samples are used to obtain an autoradiographic image. Samples capable of producing fluorescent images can also be used.
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis has gained importance owing to the precision of the outcome results. However, the method is unsuitable for distinguishing highly hydrophobic proteins,&#160; proteins with high molecular mass, or those present in very low quantities per cell.
