Fig. 2.3. Example of protein identification in proteome studies. (a) NEPHGE gel of proteins from ~cells from rat Langerhans Islets. (b) MALDI spectrum of the peptide mixture derived by in-gel tryptic
digestion of the spot indicated with an arrow in the gel. (c) top ranking candidates after a search in
the EBI non-redundant database using the Peptide Search program. The three top ranking sequences
are the same protein. (d) The sequence of the identified protein rat Galectin-3. The sequence covered
by the peptide map is underlined
ing 12 ng/ml trypsin. After digestion the pep tides were extracted from the gel,
vacuum dried and re-dissolved in 1O-20!-tl 5 % formic acid_ 0.5!-tl of this solution was applied to a mass spectrometric target precoated with a matrix (acyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid) nitrocellulose mixture (Kussmann et al. 1997)
and dried. The surface was washed with 3 -1 0 !-t1 of 0.1 % TFA, dried and the mixture analyzed on a MALDI-TOF instrument in reflector and delayed extraction
mode. The resulting mass spectrum shown in Fig. 2.3B was first externally calibrated and then re-calibrated based on a few peaks identified as autodigestion
