We extracted a 66-kDa glycoprotein (GP-1D8) from breast invasive ductal carcinoma tissues. The monoclonal antibody (mAb) against GP-1D8 was prepared in our laboratory. Western blotting with the purified protein using the mAb demonstrated a single band of 66 kDa. Immunocytochemical and immunohistochemical analysis revealed strong expression of GP-1D8 protein in the cytoplasm of MCF-7 cells and different types of breast carcinoma tissues, but GP-1D8 is absent in normal breast and benign breast tumor tissues. Glycosylation analysis showed GP-1D8 contained methylated salic acid. GP-1D8 was identified using mass-spectrometric techniques and N-terminal sequencing. These data were used to identify the protein through the SWISSPROT protein sequence database and BLAST homology search. These results showed GP-1D8 had some similarity to human albumin precursor. Co-immunoprecipitation assays of lysate from MCF-7 cells and mass spectrometric analysis revealed the interaction of GP-1D8 with beta-tubulin. This is the first time human breast carcinoma tissues and MCF-7 cells have been shown to express a 66-kDa glycoprotein similar to human albumin precursor. These results might be important in the detection of novel potential biomarkers and may provide insight into the molecular mechanisms of tumorigenesis.

Receptor-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) has been studied extensively in hematopoietic cells. Metabolic mapping and high-resolution mass spectrometry, however, indicate that one of the most frequently detected phosphorylation sites encompassed S297 (S291 in mice) located within the linker B region of Syk. It has been reported that Protein kinase C (PKC) phosphorylates Syk S297, thus influencing Syk activity.

Background: Pollen of the Asian white birch (Betula platyphylla) is a major source of allergens in spring in northern China, yet little research on its pollen allergens has been done so far.
Objective: To analyze the B. platyphylla pollen allergen profile of patients from northern China and to identify the major pollen allergens in this patient cohort.

The 380-to-393-amino-acid glycoprotein I (gI) encoded by herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is a critical mediator for viral cell-to-cell spread and syncytium formation. Here we report a previously unrecognized aberrant form of gI in HSV-1-infected cells. Production of this molecule is independent of cell type and viral strains.

Complete LC-MS-based protein primary sequence characterization requires measurement of intact protein profiles under denaturing and/or reducing conditions. To address issues of protein overcharging of unstructured proteins under acidic, denaturing conditions and sample heterogeneity (macro- and micro-scales) which often confound denaturing intact mass analysis of a wide variety of protein samples, we propose the use of broadband isolation of entire charge state distributions of intact proteins followed by ion-ion proton transfer charge reduction, which we have termed "full scan PTCR" (fsPTCR). Using rapid denaturing size exclusion chromatography coupled to fsPTCR-Orbitrap MS and time-resolved deconvolution data analysis, we demonstrate a strategy for method optimization, leading to significant analytical advantages over conventional MS1.

rHuPH20, a neutral pH-active hyaluronidase that degrades glycosaminoglycans under physiologic conditions, has six potential N-glycosylation sites. In this report, the rHuPH20 expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells was analyzed and characterized using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). Removal of the N-linked glycans from rHuPH20 with PNGase F shifted the molecular weight from 66 kDa to approximately 52 kDa, its deduced molecular weight based on sequence analysis, suggesting that most, if not all, of the potential N-glycosylation sites are linked to oligosaccharides.
