Rane proteins of ER, golgi, intracellular vesicles and plasma membrane. Protein amount in the preparation was estimated using Bradford method.Sub cellular fractionation for enrichment of microsomal proteins.Sample processing for iTRAQ labeling and SCX fractionation. Microsomal protein fraction from tumor or control tissues was subjected to trypsin digestion and the peptides were labelled with iTRAQ reagents according to the manufacturer’s instructions (iTRAQ Reagents Multiplex kit; Applied Biosystems/MDS Sciex, Foster City, CA) and as described previously19. Tumor tissue TAPI-2 cancer samples were labelled with 116 and 117 tags and control samples with 114 and 115 tags. All the four labelled peptide samples were pooled, vacuum-dried and subjected to strong cation exchange (SCX) chromatography as also described previously19. Peptides eluting from the column were collected and consecutive fractions were pooled to obtain a total of eight fractions. These fractions were desalted using C18 cartridge (Pierce, Rockford, USA) as per the manufacturer’s instructions for LC-MS/MS analysis. LC-MS/MS analysis.Nanoflow electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometric analysis was carried out using LTQ Orbitrap Velos (Thermo Scientific, Bremen, Germany) interfaced with Agilent’s 1200 Series nanoflow LC system. Peptides from each SCX fraction were enriched using a C18 trap column (75 m ?2 cm) at a flow rate of 3 l/min and fractionated on an analytical column (75 m ?10 cm) at a flow rate of 350 nl/min using a linear gradient of 7?0 acetonitrile (ACN) over 65 min. Mass spectrometric analysis was performed in a data dependent manner using the Orbitrap mass analyzer at a mass resolution of 60,000 at m/z 400. For each MS cycle, twenty top most intense precursor ions were selected and subjected to MS/MS fragmentation and detected at a mass resolution of 15,000 at m/z 400. The fragmentation was carried out using higher-energy collision dissociation (HCD) mode. Collision energy (CE) between 39?2 was used for optimization and normalized CE of 40 was used to obtain release of reporter ions from all peptides detected in the full scan. The ions selected for fragmentation were excluded for next 30 sec. The automatic gain control for full FT MS and FT MS/MS was set to 1 million ions and 0.1 million ions respectively with a maximum time of accumulation of 500 ms. The lock mass option was enabled for accurate mass measurements.Scientific RepoRts | 6:26882 | DOI: 10.1038/srepwww.nature.com/scientificreports/Protein identification, quantification and annotations of differentially expressed proteins were carried out as follows. The MS/MS data was analyzed using Proteome Discoverer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, version 1.4) in Sequest mode using NCBI RefSeq database (release 52) containing 33,985 proteins. Stattic manufacturer Search parameters included trypsin as the enzyme with 1 missed cleavage allowed; precursor and fragment mass tolerance were set to 20 ppm (around 97 of the peptides detected conformed to < 10 ppm mass error) and 0.1Da, respectively; Methionine oxidation was set as a dynamic modification while methylthio modification at cysteine and iTRAQ modification at N-terminus of the peptide and lysines were set as static modifications. The peptide and protein information were extracted using high peptide confidence and top one peptide rank filters. The FDR was calculated by enabling the peptide sequence analysis using a decoy database. High confidence peptide identifications were obtained by s.Rane proteins of ER, golgi, intracellular vesicles and plasma membrane.
