服务名称: | 定量泛素化蛋白质组分析 |
泛素化是指泛素分子在一系列特殊的酶作用下,将细胞内的蛋白质分类,从中选出靶蛋白分子,并对靶蛋白进行特异性修饰的过程。泛素-蛋白酶体系统(Ubiquitin-proteasome system, UPS)介导了真核生物80%~85%的蛋白质降解,该蛋白质降解途径具有依赖ATP、高效、高度选择性的特点。除参与蛋白质降解之外,泛素化修饰还可以直接影响蛋白质的活性和定位。由于泛素化修饰底物蛋白在细胞中的广泛存在,泛素化修饰可以调控包括细胞周期、细胞凋亡、转录调控、DNA损伤修复以及免疫应答等在内的多种细胞活动。
◆ 分析流程
样品经Trypsin酶切,酶切产物由泛素化特异性抗体(Cell Signaling Technology 5562S)进行泛素化肽的富集,富集后由高精度质谱Q Excative(Thermo Scientific)分析,分析数据由生物信息学软件进行数据检索(图1)。
