    Notes: Several two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) databases have been established and updated for more than 15 years. Only recently have developments of computer networks and high-speed transfer protocols provided the required tools for sharing comprehensive and hypermedia 2-D PAGE databases. This publication describes the SWISS-2DPAGE database structure. Proteins present in samples of human tissue, cells, cell lines and body fluids are assembled and described in an accessible uniform format. SWISS-2DPAGE can be freely accessed through the World-Wide Web (WWW) network on the ExPASy molecular biology server.

    Notes: Apolipoprotein E (apo E) is a normal component of several classes of plasma lipoproteins. Apo E phenotypes are closely related to total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol and apo B concentration. The apo E 2/2 phenotype is related to the type III hyperlipoproteinemia due to the defective binding of apo E-2 to the hepatic receptors. The apo E 4/4 phenotype has been reported to be present in most elderly people suffering from the Alzheimer disease, and is associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease and Creutzfeld-Jakob disease. Therefore, apo E phenotyping is essential. The method described here uses a precast immobilized pH gradient, avoids time-consuming separation of lipoproteins from plasma, needs no pretreatment with neuraminidase and involves highly sensitive enhanced chemiluminescence for visualization. Therefore it has many advantages over previously published methods.

    Notes: The systematic sequencing of the yeast genome will soon be completed. A new challenge has been launched by the EUROFAN (European Functional Analysis) project whose goal is to elucidate the physiological and biochemical function of newly discovered open reading frames (ORF) from yeast. One of the approaches is to use protein-based technologies such as two-dimensional gel eletrophoresis and protein identification in order to establish a yeast reference map. Modified protein patterns can be compared to the reference map which hopefully will help identify changes related, for example, to growth processes or developmental events. This paper describes the yeast SWISS-2DPAGE database in which charge separation was obtained using immobilized pH gradient (IPG). Proteins identified by gel comparison, amino acid composition analysis and/or microsequencing are recorded and described in an accessible uniform format. We have identified more than one hundred polypeptides, several of which were newly mapped. In addition, the yeast SWISS-2DPAGE database can be freely accessed through the World Wide Web (WWW) network on the ExPASy molecular biology server.

    Notes: While a two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) database is a relatively old concept, in recent years it generated renewed interest within the 2-DE community due to two main factors: (i) The high reproducibility of the current 2-DE method allows 2-DE images to be exchanged and compared between laboratories. (ii) The recent development of faster and more powerful techniques for protein identification such as microsequencing, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) and amino acid composition makes the production of reference protein maps and 2-DE databases cost- and time-effective. Additionally, the Internet network's current increase in popularity, combined with the rapid growth of Internet-connected laboratories, provides a straightforward means of publishing and sharing 2-DE data. While a small number of laboratories have already successfully published their data over the net, the increasing number of 2-DE database servers that are currently being set up will sooner or later require some kind of standardization. Unfortunately, standardization can be a long and cumbersome process inevitably leading to undesirable compromises. A federated database offers a simple and efficient way to publish and share 2-DE data without the need for standardization. Taking advantage of Internet protocols such as World Wide Web, they allow each laboratory to maintain their own database and to interconnect it with other similar databases through the use of active cross-references. This paper first presents guidelines for building a federated 2-DE database that may easily be followed by most laboratories. It then briefly reviews the state-of-the-art in networked 2-DE databases, and finally describes the SWISS-2DPAGE database which fully implements the concept of a federated 2-DE database.

    Notes: During mammalian spermatogenesis meiotic cell division and spermiogenesis occurs. Gene expression during this process is temporally regulated at the transcriptional and translational levels but the mechanisms are not well understood. In this publication we have investigated the synthesis of proteins in vitro to detect the proteins with a high metabolic turnover and to compare them with the in vivo protein map. RNA of spermatocytes and round spermatid cell populations, purified by centrifugal elutriation, and total testis was isolated. The poly A+ mRNA fraction was translated using a rabbit reticulocyte lysate. The translation products were separated by two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis using nonlinear 3.5-10 immobilized pH gradients for the first-dimensional separation. The gels with 35S-translated proteins were transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes and scanned using a phosphorimager. A highly reproducible and complex protein pattern was obtained using this methodology. Only rat testis messages were translated. Using Melanie 2 software we could compare and detect more than 1000 proteins on 2-D radioactive images. Some changes could be observed in protein expression between the different cell types but they were not statistically significant. The comparison between the 2-D rat testis map and the in vitro translated patterns show no matching between any spots. This result suggests that the post-transcriptional modifications occurring in the reticulocyte system are not the same as those that occur in vivo in the testis. Rabbit reticulocyte proteins were detected by staining PVDF membranes with colloidal gold. Rat testis and reticulocyte patterns were completely different.

    Notes: Large tissue samples from ten patients operated for colorectal cancer were prepared in the operating room in iced phosphate buffered saline, containing ethylene diaminetetraacetic acid and protease inhibitors. After cutting the specimens into small fragments, the tissues were gently pressed through a steel mesh. Membranes were permeabilized in chilled ethanol 70% to allow cytosolic fluoresceine isothiocyanate labeling, performed with anti-cytokeratin (CAM 5.2) antibodies. Samples were quantitatively sorted with a fluorescence activated cell sorter (FACS) and denatured before processing separation by two-dimensional electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels. This procedure made it possible to sample about 4 × 107 viable normal and tumoral cells before fixation, and up to 4 × 106 cells after FACS. The gels run before and after fixation showed no major differences. The rate of cytokeratin-positive cells in the samples was the following (mean, Cl 5-95%): mucosa 29.5% (8.9-66.7%), tumor 44.3% (6.6-94.8%). The epithelial cell content in colorectal cancer and normal mucosa shows important intersample variations. This is important for any comparison of fresh samples, whether at DNA, RNA, or at the protein level. We propose a method allowing the preparation of pure epithelial cell samples from normal and tumoral colonic fresh mucosa.

    Notes: We describe the extraction and enrichment of membrane proteins for separation by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) after differential solubilization of an Escherichia coli cell lysate. In a simple three-step sequential solubilization protocol applicable for whole cell lysates, membrane proteins are partitioned from other cellular proteins by their insolubility in solutions conventionally used for isoelectric focusing (IEF). As the first step, Tris-base was used to solubilize many cytosolic proteins. The resultant pellet was then subjected to conventional solubilizing solutions (urea, 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate, dithiothreitol, Tris, carrier ampholytes). Following the completion of this step, 89% of the initial E. coli sample mass was solubilized. Finally, the membrane protein rich pellet was partially solubilized using a combination of urea, thiourea, tributyl phosphine and multiple zwitterionic surfactants. Using N-terminal sequence tagging and peptide mass fingerprinting we have identified 11 membrane proteins from this pellet. Two of these outer membrane proteins (Omp), OmpW and OmpX, have previously been known only as an open reading frame in E. coli, while OmpC, OmpT and OmpTOLC have not previously been identified on a 2-D gel. The prefractionation of an entire cell lysate into multiple fractions, based on solubility, results in simplified protein patterns following 2-D PAGE using broad-range pH 3.5-10 immobilized pH gradients (IPGs). Additional advantages of sample prefractionation are that protein identification and gel matching, for database construction, is a more manageable task, the procedure requires no specialized apparatus, and the sequential extraction is conducted in a single centrifuge tube, minimizing protein loss.

    Notes: Although two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) computer analysis software packages have existed ever since 2-DE technology was developed, it is only now that the hardware and software technology allows large-scale studies to be performed on low-cost personal computers or workstations, and that setting up a 2-DE computer analysis system in a small laboratory is no longer considered a luxury. After a first attempt in the seventies and early eighties to develop 2-DE analysis software systems on hardware that had poor or even no graphical capabilities, followed in the late eighties by a wave of innovative software developments that were possible thanks to new graphical interface standards such as XWindows, a third generation of 2-DE analysis software packages has now come to maturity. It can be run on a variety of low-cost, general-purpose personal computers, thus making the purchase of a 2-DE analysis system easily attainable for even the smallest laboratory that is involved in proteome research. Melanie II 2-D PAGE, developed at the University Hospital of Geneva, is such a third-generation software system for 2-DE analysis. Based on unique image processing algorithms, this user-friendly object-oriented software package runs on multiple platforms, including Unix, MS-Windows 95 and NT, and Power Macintosh. It provides efficient spot detection and quantitation, state-of-the-art image comparison, statistical data analysis facilities, and is Internet-ready. Linked to proteome databases such as those available on the World Wide Web, it represents a valuable tool for the “Virtual Lab” of the postgenome area.
