Two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and shotgun peptide sequencing are the two major technologies to compare the expression profile of proteins, which is also referred to as comparative proteomics or quantitative proteomics. Although the methodologies, such as difference gel electrophoresis for 2-DE and isotope-coded affinity tags for shotgun peptide sequencing, have made rapid progress, these two approaches have their own strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, the combination of the two methodologies is beneficial for the purpose of better comparative proteomics, especially in comprehensive coverage of the proteome and protein information such as post-translational modifications.

Biological fluids are proteinaceous liquids or suspensions released through different body orifices or through penetration of the skin. These fluids are the result of multiple tissues and cell types and contain extensive, highly complex, and dynamic protein populations that reflect both the transcriptional program of the originating cells and a record of the individual's health status. Body fluids are readily accessible to clinicians and researchers, and as such proteomic analyses are an important component of clinical studies, fertility studies, oral health studies, and forensic investigations.

Shotgun proteomics can be applied to identify and study insect species in diverse research areas such as agriculture, forensics, biodiversity conservation, and food safety. In this chapter, we have provided a detailed protocol for shotgun proteomics analytical methods involving enzymatic digestion of insect proteins using trypsin, separation using high-performance liquid chromatography, and detection of separated peptides using high-resolution mass spectrometry. The protocol also covers the utilization of bioinformatics software for protein identification and spectral library building, proposing both proteomic database-dependent and independent methods.

Next-generation shotgun proteomics is one of the most valuable tools for gaining insight into the function of organisms. By providing a list of peptides and abundance information, proteomics enables the identification of proteins, their quantities, posttranslational modifications, and localization. The most refined shotgun proteomics workflow involves protein extraction, trypsin digestion, ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry, and confident assignment of resulting spectra to peptide sequences.

Adipose tissue (AT) is a complex, multifunctional endocrine organ that plays a significant role in animal evolution and human disease. Profiling of the proteome, or the set of proteins produced by a cell or tissue at a given time, can be used to explore the myriad functions of adipose tissue and understand its role in health and disease. The main challenges of adipose tissue proteomics include the high lipid and low protein content of the tissue and association of many proteins with lipid droplets.
