Antiserum against a rat neuronal tumor cell line (B103) has been prepared in rabbit by intravenous injection of live cells. This immune serum (anti-B103) precipitates a few cell surface proteins recognizable by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis as common radioiodinatable spots in 15 different rat neural cell lines and in mouse and rat fibroblast cell lines. The apparent molecular weight of one major common protein (II4) is estimated by SDS gel electrophoresis to be somewhere between 80,000 and 90,000 and another protein (I3) to be 120,000. These two proteins are consistently recognized in various cell lines by this antiserum. Furthermore, at a 1:20 dilution, this serum causes monolayer cells to round up usually within 0.5 h and detach from the plate within 3 h. It also inhibits spreading of freshly plated cells. These effects of the antiserum are reversible. Upon absorption of the antiserum with cells (e.g., absorbed with a glial cell line, B27), the serum no longer causes the rounding up of the monolayer cells, it does not inhibit cell spreading, and it does not immune-precipitate the two common proteins from the cell surface of various cell lines. Antisera against several other rat cell lines also precipitate the same common proteins (II4 and I3) from the cell surface and prevent cell spreading. These data suggest that the antibody acts first at the cell surface and then inhibits cell spreading or rounding up of spread cells. The consistent pattern of the immunoprecipitated cell surface proteins on the two-dimensional gel electrophoresis makes these two common surface proteins (II4 or I3 or both) possible candidates for target proteins to which the antibody binds. Thus, they may play a critical role in cell spreading.

Mouse lymphocyte H-2 and Ia glycoproteins have been analyzed with a two-dimensional (2-D) acrylamide gel electrophoresis technique, in which proteins are separated first according to their charge in isoelectrofocusing gels and then according to their size in sodium dodecyl sulfate gels. Individual polypeptide chains from radiolabeled cells are resolved as discrete spots on autoradiograms of the gels, forming patterns which are characteristic of the proteins in the sample. 2-D gels of H-2K, H-2D, and Ia glycoproteins immunoprecipitated from 35S-methionine-labeled cells reveal that these proteins exist in the cells as complex arrays of molecules heterogeneous in both size and charge. Lactoperoxidase-catalyzed radioiodination of lymphocyte surfaces labels only subsets of the total H-2 and Ia molecules with 125I, indicating that some of the molecules may represent cytoplasmic precursors of the cell surface proteins. This theory is supported by the kinetics of labeling of various spots in 35S-methionine pulse-chase experiments. The 2-D gel patterns obtained for both H-2 and Ia antigens have also been shown to be haplotype-specific and independent of the genetic background.

Two-dimensional PAGE (P. Z. O'Farrell, H. M. Goodman, and P. H. O'Farrell. 1977. Cell. 12:1133-1142) has been employed to assess the effects of antibody-dependent phagocytosis on the cell surface protein composition of RAW264 macrophages. Unilamellar phospholipid vesicles containing 1% dinitrophenyl-aminocaproyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (DNP-cap-PE) were used as the target particle. Macrophages were exposed to anti-DNP antibody alone, vesicles alone, or vesicles in the presence of antibody for 1 h at 37 degrees C. Cell surface proteins were then labeled by lactoperoxidase-catalyzed radioiodination at 4 degrees C. After detergent solubilization, membrane proteins were analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The resulting pattern of spots was compared to that of standard proteins. We have identified several surface proteins, not apparently associated with the phagocytic process, which are present either in a multichain structure or in several discretely charged forms. After phagocytosis, we have observed the appearance of two proteins of 45 and 50 kdaltons in nonreducing gels. In addition, we have noted the disappearance of a 140-kdalton protein in gels run under reducing conditions. These alterations would not be detected in the conventional one-dimensional gel electrophoresis. This evidence shows that phagocytosis leads to a modification of cell surface protein composition. Our results support the concept of specific enrichment and depletion of membrane components during antibody-dependent phagocytosis.

Abstract Red blood cells (RBCs) play a critical role in oxygen transport, and are the focus of important diseases including malaria and the haemoglobinopathies. Proteins at the RBC surface can determine susceptibility to disease, however previous studies classifying the RBC proteome have not used specific strategies directed at enriching cell surface proteins. Furthermore, there has been no systematic analysis of variation in abundance of RBC surface proteins between genetically disparate human populations. These questions are important to inform not only basic RBC biology but additionally to identify novel candidate receptors for malarial parasites. Here, we use ‘plasma membrane profiling’ and tandem mass tag-based mass spectrometry to enrich and quantify primary RBC cell surface proteins from two sets of nine donors from the UK or Senegal. We define a RBC surface proteome and identify potential Plasmodium receptors based on either diminished protein abundance, or increased variation in RBCs from West African individuals.

Human adipose tissue-derived adult stem (ADAS) cells are a self-renewing population of cells with a multilineage plasticity similar to bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells. Human ADAS have promise for use in combination with various biomaterials for reconstructive tissue engineering. The phenotypic profile of human ADAS cell surface proteins has been partially characterized for stem cell-associated cluster differentiation molecules including CD29, CD44, and CD90. Porcine ADAS cells, an animal model for tissue engineering, also have the ability to self-renew and differentiate into multiple tissue lineages. However, the surface protein phenotype has not been described. Because porcine ADAS are isolated from fat depots likely different from human ADAS liposuction aspirates, it is important to characterize these cells. In this study, we have partially characterized the surface protein phenotype of undifferentiated porcine ADAS cells in comparison with the immunophenotype of undifferentiated human ADAS cells as reported in the literature. Flow cytometry and enhanced chemiluminescence Western blot analysis of early passage (passages 0–4) porcine ADAS cell populations demonstrated that the profiles are not similar to the human ADAS cell surface. Immunoblot detection paired with an enhanced chemiluminescence kit revealed a positive expression for CD44 and CD90 in human ADAS cells as indicated by bands present at the expected sizes and a negative expression for CD44 and CD90 in porcine ADAS cells. Flow cytometric analysis also indicated differences between human and early passage porcine ADAS cell surfaces with a relatively low expression of CD29 (5 cell lines with a mean percent positive of 4.5 ± 1.7 and a range of 2.5–7.2%) and CD44 (5 cell lines with a mean percent positive of 0.66 ± 0.67 and a range of 0.0–1.8%) compared with human ADAS values of 98 ± 1 and 60 ± 15, respectively (Gronthos et al. 2001). Other cell surface proteins analyzed at early passages include CD3 (3 cell lines; 0.07 ± 0.06% positive and 0.0–0.1 range), CD8 (3 cell lines; 0.10 ± 0.10% positive and 0–0.2 range), and CD90 [5 cell lines; 12.7 ± 11.9% positive and 2.4–33 range; human ADAS geometric mean 25.96% (Zuk et al. 2002)]. Analysis of late passage (passages 5–11) porcine ADAS cell populations revealed an increased expression of CD29 (3 cell lines; 26.4 ± 7.2% positive and 21.2–34.6 range). The expression level of CD90 at late passages were 21.3 and 26.9% positive for 2 cell lines and CD44 remained low (3 cell lines; 4.1 ± 3.5% positive and 0.2–7.0 range). Later passages were also analyzed for c-Kit (CD117), which was expressed at low levels (2 cell lines; 0.3 and 0.4% positive). The characterization of adipose tissue-derived adult stem cell surface proteins present at different stages of in vitro culture from a model animal, such as the pig, could have valuable impacts on tissue engineering research. These results suggest that care should be taken when interpreting results from animal models of somatic stem cells.

Secreted and surface proteins of bacteria are key molecules that interface the cell with the environment. Some of them, corresponding to virulence factors, have already been described for Enterococcus faecalis , the predominant species involved in enterococcal nosocomial infections. In a global proteomic approach, the identification of the most abundant secreted and surface-associated proteins of E. faecalis JH2-2 strain was carried out. These proteins were separated by gel electrophoresis or directly subjected to in vivo trypsinolysis and then analyzed by liquid chromatography – electrospray ion trap tandem mass spectrometry. Putative functions were assigned by homology to the translated genomic database of E. faecalis. A total of 44 proteins were identified, eight secreted proteins from the supernatant culture and 38 cell surface proteins from two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and in vivo trypsinolysis among which two are common to the two groups. Their sequences analysis revealed that 35 of the 44 proteins harbour characteristic features (signal peptide or transmembrane domains) consistent with an extracellular localization. This study may be considered as an important step to encourage proteomic-based investigations of E. faecalis cell surface associated proteins that could lead to the discovery of virulence factors and to the development of new therapeutic tools.
