Abstract

Proteins are very dynamic within the cell and their localization and trafficking between subcellular compartments are critical for their correct function. Indeed, the abnormal localization of a protein might lead to the pathogenesis of several diseases. The association of cell fractionation methods and mass spectrometry based proteomic methods allow both the localization and quantification of proteins in different sub-compartments. Here we present a detailed protocol for enrichment, identification, and quantitation of the nuclear proteome in cell lines combining nuclear subproteome enrichment by differential centrifugation and high-throughput proteomics.

Keywords: Cell Line; Mass spectrometry; Nuclear fractionation; Protein localization; Subcellular proteomics.
