S100 cytosolic extracts were prepared from HEK293 vector and SIRT2 knockdown cell lines. Equal amounts of protein were subjected to immunoprecipitation with anti-acetyl lysine antibody. The proteins were eluted with glycine buffer (pH 2.7). The proteins were then subjected to in vitro labeling with Cy-3 and Cy-5 N-hydroxysuccinimidyl ester. Cy-2 was used as an internal standard. The samples were subjected to isoelectric focusing and then separated in a second dimension by SDS PAGE. The gels were fixed, stained and protein spots were analyzed using GE Healthcare DeCyder software. The protein spots of interest were subjected to automated in-gel tryptic digestion and MALDI/MS/MS spectra were performed with 4800 Proteomics Analyzer MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometer (Applied Biosystems) (24 (link),25 (link)).
