Direct Enzymatic Digestion of Protein Complexes

| ABSTRACT |
| Protein complexes can be digested directly using a number of different protocols. The methods presented here include a double digest with endoproteinase Lys-C and trypsin, or a triple digest with elastase, subtilisin, and trypsin. Endoproteinase Lys-C cleaves carboxy-terminal to lysine residues, while trypsin cleaves carboxy-terminal to lysine and arginine residues. The triple digest uses the relatively nonspecific proteases elastase and subtilisin to create a large number of overlapping peptides for the analysis of posttranslational modifications (MacCoss et al. 2002b). The double and triple digest protocols begin with the reduction and alkylation of cysteine residues to disrupt disulfide bonds and, therefore, higher-order protein structure. |
