Article Bitki Proteomik Çalışmalarında Kullanılan Yaklaşımlar ve Uygulama Yöntemleri(2020) Günel, Aslıhan; Yalçın, Talat; Hasançebi, Semra; Yalçın, Talat; Emir, Mahmut; Demirci, Yahya Emin; Dinç, Melike; Güray, Melda Zeynep; 04.01. Department of Chemistry; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyProteomik yaklaşımları 2000 li yılların başlarına kadar mikroorganizmalar ve hayvansal kaynaklı örneklerde ağırlıklı olarak kullanıldı. Bu dönemde bitki proteomik çalışmaları yok denecek kadar azdır. Bitkisel dokulardaki sert hücre çeperleri, karmaşık ve çok çeşitli sekonder metabolitlerin varlığı, fazla miktardaki pigmentler, proteazlar, polifenoller, polisakkaritler, nişasta ve lipitler total protein örneklerinin hazırlanması ve proteinlerin ayrımı sırasında pek çok soruna neden olmuştur. Ancak her bir sorunun üstesinden gelmek üzere sürdürülen çabalar sayesinde bitki dünyasında da proteomik yaklaşım kullanımı yaygınlaşmıştır. Bu derlemede, örnek hazırlığından protein tanımlamaya kadar tüm basamaklar yöntemsel gelişmeleri de kapsayacak şekilde ayrıntılı olarak ele alınmış ve konuyla ilgili araştırıcıların maksimum yararlanabileceği bir kaynak oluşturulmaya çalışılmıştır.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Observation of the Side Chain O-Methylation of Glutamic Acid or Aspartic Acid Containing Model Peptides by Electrospray Ionization-Mass Spectrometry(Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Atik, Ahmet Emin; Güray, Melda Zeynep; Yalçın, Talat; 04.01. Department of Chemistry; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyO-methylation of the side chains of glutamic acid (E) and aspartic acid (D) residues is generally observed modification when an acidified methanol/water (MeOH/dH2O) mixture is used as a solvent system during sample preparation for proteomic research. This chemical modification may result misidentification with endogenous protein methylation; therefore, a special care should be taken during sample handling prior to mass spectrometric analysis. In the current study, we systematically examined the extent of E/D methylation and C-terminus carboxyl group of synthetic model peptides in terms of different incubation temperatures, storage times, and added acid types as well as its percentages. To monitor these effects, C-terminus amidated and free acid forms of synthetic model peptides comprised of E or D residue(s) have been analyzed by electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). Additionally, LC–MS/MS experiments were performed to confirm the formation of methylated peptide product. The results showed that the rate of methylation was increased as the temperature increases along with prolong incubation times. Moreover, the extent of methylation was remarkably high when formic acid (FA) used as a protonation agent instead of acetic acid (AA). In addition, it was found that the degree of methylation was significantly decreased by lowering acid percentages in ESI solution. More than one acidic residue containing model peptides have been also used to explore the extent of multiple methylation reaction. Lastly, the ethanol (EtOH) and isopropanol (iPrOH) have been substituted separately with MeOH in sample preparation step to investigate the extent of esterification reaction under the same experimental conditions. However, in the positive perspective of view, this method can be used as a simple, rapid and cheap method for methylation of acidic residues under normal laboratory conditions.
