Identification of Aurora-A Binding Proteins

The Aurora-A-SOX8 complex was obtained by IP with anti-Aurora-A from SKOV3-CisR cells according to the method above. The eluted proteins were resolved on gradient SDS-PAGE, silver stained, and subjected to MS sequencing and data analysis. In-solution and in-gel digestion were performed according to a previously published method 50 (link). Briefly, gel bands were minced and destained with 50% acetonitrile in 50 mM ammonium bicarbonate. Proteins were reduced with 10 mM DTT at 56℃, followed by alkylation with 55 mM iodoacetamide at room temperature in the dark. Trypsin digestion was performed overnight at 37℃ with gentle shaking. Peptides were extracted using 1% trifluoroacetic acid in 50% acetonitrile. Samples were vacuum-dried and reconstituted in 0.1% formic acid for subsequent MS analysis. The treated samples were examined by nanoLC-MS/MS (nanoACQUITY UPLC and SYNAPT G2 HD mass spectrometer, Waters). MS/MS data were obtained with Data Dependent Analysis mode and processed with PLGS 2.4 software (Waters), and the resulting peak list was searched against the NCBI database with the MASCOT search engine. All the Aurora-A-binding proteins tested by MS after IP were listed in Table S4.

FLAG-tagged HPIP complex was obtained by immunoprecipitation with anti-Flag from 108 ZR75-1 cells stably expressing FLAG-HPIP according to the manufacturer’s protocol (Sigma-Aldrich). Cells were lysed in IP buffer (20 mM tris at pH 8.0, 0.25 M NaCl, 0.5% NP-40, and 5 mM EDTA) and centrifuged to get supernatants. The supernatants were immunoprecipitated with anti-Flag agarose beads for 4 hours at 4°C. The beads were washed four times with IP buffer, and the FLAG-tagged HPIP complex was eluted with Flag peptide. The protein complex was separated by SDS-PAGE, followed by Coomassie brilliant blue staining. Differential bands were excised and subjected to mass spectrometry analysis. In-solution and in-gel digestion were performed as previously described (54 (link)). Briefly, gel bands were minced and destained, and proteins were reduced and alkylated. Trypsin digestion was performed, and digested peptides were isolated, vacuum-dried, and reconstituted. The treated samples were analyzed by nanoLC-MS/MS (nanoACQUITY UPLC and SYNAPT G2 HD mass spectrometer, Waters). Tandem mass spectrometry data were obtained with data-dependent analysis mode and analyzed using PLGS 2.4 software (Waters), and the resulting peak list was searched against the National Center for Biotechnology Information database with the MASCOT search engine.

Sediments from organoids or cells were lysed in IP buffer containing ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid and underwent IP. Agarose beads were eluted with FBN1 peptide. After SDS‐PAGE and silver‐staining, MS was conducted as previously described [28 (link)]. Subsequently, MS data were acquired from Data Dependent Analysis mode and analyzed with the PLGS 2.4 software (Waters, Shanghai, China). Finally, with the aid of MASCOT search engine, the resulting peak list was searched in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genome/).

Mass Spectrometry-Based Protein Quantification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The raw data files were processed with PLGS 2.4 software (Waters). The Universal Protein Resource (UniProt) reviewed human protein database was used for protein identification. One missed cleavage by trypsin was allowed. The search was performed with carbamidomethylation of cysteine as a fixed modification and acetylation of the N-terminus, deamidation of asparagine, and oxidation of methionine as variable modifications. Mass tolerance was automatically calculated but was set to approximately 10 ppm for precursor ions and 20 ppm for fragment ions.
The false-positive rate allowed was 4%. Each identified protein was quantitated by summing the peak intensities of the most abundant three peptides, as previously described [5 ]. The amount on the column was calculated by comparing the summed intensities to that of the added enolase. To compare the averaged column amounts of each identified protein, t-tests were performed by using IBM SPSS Statistics 19 software (IBM Corporation, Armonk, NY, USA). P values less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
