A systematic investigation into the recovery of radioactively labeled proteins from sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels

We report the results of a systematic investigation designed to optimize a method for quantifying radioactivity in proteins in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels. The method involves dissolving appropriately sized pieces of gel in hydrogen peroxide and heating to 70 degrees C overnight followed by liquid scintillation counting. H(2)O(2) had no effect on the count rates of [(14)C]bovine serum albumin (BSA) when counted in a conventional liquid scintillation system, and the count rates remained stable for several days. Temperatures below 70 degrees C resulted in incomplete extraction of radioactivity from gels containing [(14)C]BSA, but there was also a significant reduction in count rates in samples incubated at 80 degrees C. At 70 degrees C recovery was not affected by the amount of sample loaded onto the gel or by the staining procedure (Coomassie Brilliant Blue or SYPRO Ruby). Recoveries were in the range of 89-94%, and the coefficient of variation for five replicate samples was 5-10%. This method offers a reliable way of measuring the amount of radioactivity in proteins that have been separated by electrophoresis. It may be useful, for example, in quantitative metabolic labeling experiments when it is necessary to know precisely how much tracer has been incorporated into a particular protein.     

Differential analysis of phosphorylated proteins in resting and thrombin-stimulated human platelets

Blood platelets are important components of haemostasis. After their activation they cause healing of wounds by forming plugs and initiate repair processes. One important event in regulating this activation is the phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of multiple proteins on various tyrosine, serine and threonine residues. To understand the exact molecular mechanisms in platelet activation it is essential to identify proteins involved in the signalling pathways and to localise and characterise their phosphorylation sites. After treatment with ³²P and separation by 2D-PAGE using different pI ranges, phosphorylated platelet proteins were detected by autoradiography. Phosphotyrosine-containing proteins were assigned by immunoblotting with an anti-phosphotyrosine antibody. Another approach for the identification of phosphorylated proteins was immunoprecipitation of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins using an anti-phosphotyrosine antibody. Protein spots/bands of interest were excised from the gel, digested with trypsin and analysed by MALDI-TOF-MS and nano-LC-ESI-MS/MS, respectively. Several phosphorylated proteins could be identified and the localisation of some in vivo phosphorylation sites was possible.Abbreviations DTT 1,4-dithiothreitol - HCCA -cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid - PMSF phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride - PSD post source decay - TFA trifluoroacetic acid - TOF time-of-flight     

Synthesis of highly sulfonated polybenzimidazoles by direct copolymerization and grafting

A series of highly sulfonated, ether‐containing polybenzimidazoles (SOPBI) with controlled sulfonation degrees were synthesized from various stoichiometric ratio mixtures of sodium 6,6'‐oxybis(3‐carboxybenzenesulfonate) (SODBA), 4,4'‐oxydibenzoic acid (ODBA), and 3,3'‐diaminobenzidine (DAB) by solution copolycondensation in poly(phosphoric acid). The resulting sulfonated polymers were further sulfonated by grafting of pendant sulfonic acid chains via a reaction of 1,3‐propane sultone with lithiated‐N of the imidazole rings in the polymer backbone, yielding materials with high, absolute IEC values (3.42–4.15 meq g^?1). Due to self‐neutralization, the solid state polymers possessed “free” acid content of 1.40 to 2.15 meq g^?1, were soluble in organic solvents yet insoluble in aqueous solution, while displaying proton conductivites (11–47 mS cm^?1) at elevated temperatures (80 °C, 95% RH). © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The development of an integrated platform to identify breast cancer glycoproteome changes in human serum

Protein glycosylation represents one of the major post-translational modifications and can have significant effects on protein function. Moreover, changes in the carbohydrate structure are increasingly being recognized as an important modification associated with cancer etiology. In this report, we describe the development of a proteomics approach to identify breast cancer related changes in either concentration and/or the carbohydrate structures of glycoprotein(s) present in blood samples. Diseased and healthy serum samples were processed by an optimized sample preparation protocol using multiple lectin affinity chromatography (M-LAC) that partitions serum proteins based on glycan characteristics. Subsequently, three separate procedures, 1D SDS-PAGE, isoelectric focusing and an antibody microarray, were applied to identify potential candidate markers for future study. The combination of these three platforms is illustrated in this report with the analysis of control and cancer glycoproteomic fractions. Firstly, a molecular weight based separation of glycoproteins by 1D SDS-PAGE was performed, followed by protein, glycoprotein staining, lectin blotting and LC–MS analysis. To refine or confirm the list of interesting glycoproteins, isoelectric focusing (targeting sialic acid changes) and an antibody microarray (used to detect neutral glycan shifts) were selected as the orthogonal methods. As a result, several glycoproteins including alpha-1B-glycoprotein, complement C3, alpha-1-antitrypsin and transferrin were identified as potential candidates for further study.     

Effects of guest microparticles on the swelling behavior of polyacrylamide gels

We report the effects of guest particles on the swelling properties of bulk polyacrylamide gels. The guest particles were the spheres of poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) gel with submicrometer diameter, which were synthesized by an emulsion‐polymerized reaction in water. Polyacrylamide gels were prepared by a free radical polymerization reaction, immobilizing the gel microparticles with different concentrations at gelation. The macroscopic swelling ratio of this hybrid gel in a cylindrical shape was measured as functions of temperature and acetone concentration. The presence of guest particles was found to strongly affect the swelling behavior in the bulk gels when the concentration of incorporated particles exceeded a threshold. The experimental results indicated that the macroscopic volume in response to the temperature change should be determined by the guest particles above the threshold. On the other hand, the hybrid gel could not evidently shrink by adding acetone when the concentration of guest particles exceeded the threshold. To make clear the distribution of guest particles in the bulk networks, the fractured surfaces of dried gels were imaged by tapping mode atomic force microscopy. The guest particles were found to aggregate in the bulk homogeneous networks to form microdomains with densely connected structure, which became larger with increasing particle concentration. The roles of bulk networks as well as guest particles on the swelling behavior of hybrid gels were qualitatively discussed on the basis of the incorporated structure of guest particles, depending on the concentration of guest particles. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and characterization of proton‐conducting copolyimides bearing pendant sulfonic acid groups

A series of sulfonated copolyimides (co‐SPIs) bearing pendant sulfonic acid groups were synthesized from 1,4,5,8‐naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (NTDA), bis(3‐sulfopropoxy) benzidines (BSPBs), and common nonsulfonated diamines via statistical or sequenced polycondensation reactions. Membranes were prepared by casting their m‐cresol solutions. The co‐SPI membrane had a microphase‐separated structure composed of hydrophilic and hydrophobic domains, but the connecting behavior of hydrophilic domains was different from that of the homo‐SPIs. The co‐SPI membranes displayed clear anisotropic membrane swelling in water with negligibly small dimensional changes in the plane direction of the membrane. With water uptake values of 39–94 wt %, they showed dimensional changes in membrane thickness of about 0.11–0.58, which were much lower than those of homo‐SPIs. The proton conductivity σ values of co‐SPI membranes with ion exchange capacity values ranging from 1.95–2.32 meq/g increased sigmoidally with increasing relative humidity. They displayed σ values of 0.05–0.16 S/cm at 50 °C in liquid water. Increasing temperature up to 120 °C resulted in further increase in proton conductivity. The co‐SPI membranes showed relatively good conductivity stability during the aging treatment in water at 100 °C for 300 h. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Preparation and characterization of sulfonated polyimide ionomers via post‐sulfonation method for fuel cell applications

This paper describes our work on the synthesis of a series of sulfonated homo‐/co‐polyimides (SPI) which were obtained by post‐sulfonation method over three steps. In the first step, 4,4′‐oxydianiline (ODA) and 4,4′‐diaminodiphenylsulfone (DDS) dissolved in N‐methyl pyrrolidone (NMP) were reacted with benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA) in order to yield poly(amic acid) (PAA). Secondly, precipitated PAA was sulfonated via concentrated sulfuric acid (95–98%) at room temperature to give post‐sulfonated PAA (PSPAA). Finally, PSPAA was converted into post‐sulfonated PI (PSPI) by the thermal imidization method. PSPIs with ion exchange capacity (IEC) ranging from 0.20 to 0.67 meq/g were prepared. The thermal properties of the PSPIs were evaluated and high desulfonation temperature was found in the range of 190–350°C, suggesting the high stability of sulfonic acid groups. In water, PSPI‐5 membrane displayed similar proton conductivity to Nafion®117, whereas this membrane showed poor conductivity in dry state. All PSPIs displayed good solubility in common polar aprotic solvents such as NMP and dimethylacetamide (DMAc). Furthermore, the effects of post‐sulfonation reaction on chemical structure, thermal oxidative behavior, and physical properties of the PSPI membranes such as membrane quality/stability and water uptake were discussed.

Synthesis and properties of porous polyvinylamine microspheres from acrylonitrile

A novel route to synthesize crosslinked porous polyvinylamine (PVAm) microspheres from acrylonitrile (AN) was developed. In the first step, crosslinked porous polyacrylonitrile (PAN) spheres were prepared by copolymerization of AN and divinylbenzene (DVB). Then they were hydrolyzed to form polyacrylamide (PAM) spheres. And lastly, the porous PVAm spheres were successfully obtained via Hofmann degradation of PAM spheres. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) indicated that these PVAm microspheres have rough surfaces and porous interior structure. The pore size, the amino content, and the content of equilibrium water were also investigated. The pore size of these PVAm microspheres increased with the hydrolytic process. The contents of equilibrium water was changed from 49.6 to 96.5% depending on the different crosslinking degrees, and the amino contents were varied between 9.60 and 15.30 mmol/g depending on the different molar ratio of n(NaClO)/n(NaOH). © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
