Gene vs. Protein diversity
• Human Genome = 25,000 genes
• Human Proteome = 300,000 to 1,200,000
protein variants
1 gene-> many proteins
• Alternative splicing: ~60% of genes
in the human genome, several splice
forms are typical.
– International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium,
Nature 2001
• Proteolytic cleavage
• Covalent modifications
• Phosphorylation, Acylation, Methylation,
Glycosylation,Sulfation, Prenylation, lipid
linkage and many more…
mRNA-protein Correlation
• YPD: should have relevant data
– will yeast be typical?
• Electrophoresis 18:533
– 23 proteins on 2D gels
– r=0.48 for mRNA=protein
• Post-transcriptional and post
translational regulation important!
Branches of Proteomics

Protein separation. Basic to all proteomic technologies are protein
separation; the separation of a complex mixture so that individual proteins
are more easily processed with other techniques.
Protein identification. Low-throughput sequencing through Edman
degradation; High throughput proteomic techniques based on mass
spectrometry, commonly peptide mass fingerprinting on simpler
instruments, or de novo sequencing with tandem mass
spectrometry.
Protein quantification. Gel-based methods such as differential staining
of gels with fluorescent dyes (difference gel electrophoresis). Gel-free
methods include various tagging or chemical modification methods, such
as isotope-coded affinity tags (ICATs) or combined fractional diagnoal
chromatography (COFRADIC). Mass spec methods are now giving
quantification data.
Protein sequence analysis. Bioinformatic branch, search databases for
possible protein or peptide matches.
Structural proteomics. High-throughput determination of protein
structures in three-dimensional space using x-ray crystallography and
NMR spectroscopy.
Interaction proteomics. Investigation of protein interactions using IP
then MS, 2-hydrid screens, protein chips.
Protein modification. Almost all proteins are modified from their pure
translated amino-acid sequence, so-called post-translational modification.
Specialized methods have been developed to study phosporylation
(phosphoproteomics) and glycosylation (glycoproteomics). MS methods
are also used.

Peptide Mass Fingerprinting
• Find peptide fragments from MS spectra.
– Charge state deconvolution.
• Make peptide fragment list.
• Check versus list of all possible polypeptides.
• Need to have Protein database!

Value of Proteome Data
• Contains info not in mRNA!
– [mRNA] != [protein]
– Covalent modification of proteins
critical to regulation, often with
constant expression
– Association state of proteins critical
