Two-dimensional (2-D) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis combined with mass spectrometry is a powerful combination of technologies that allows high resolution separation of proteins and their rapid identification. Immobilized pH gradient (IPG) first-dimensional gels have several advantages over carrier ampholyte isoelectric focusing, including a high degree of reproducibility, good protein spot resolution, and a selection of pH range. Here we demonstrate the utility and efficacy of combining IPG 2-D gel electrophoresis with mass spectrometry to identify interferon-γ- (IFN) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-regulated proteins in ME-180 cervical carcinoma cells. Three cytokine-regulated proteins have been identified, using imidazole-zinc-stained preparative IPG 2-D gels and in-gel tryptic digestion followed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry for determination of peptide masses and sequences: (1) triosephosphate isomerase, a glycolytic pathway enzyme, (2) proteasome subunit C3, which is important in protein degradation, and (3) Ran, a GTP-binding protein important in cell cycle regulation, protein import into the nucleus, and RNA export from the nucleus.
