Beagle serum proteins were separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and the electrophoretograms were examined by one- and two-dimensional analyses with a laser densitometer. In order from the anodic side of the PAGE pattern, pre-albumin, hexokinase, tyrosinase, alkaline phosphatase, urease, and aldehyde dehydrogenase were assumed to be present based on Rf and Mw. Serum albumin, lactate dehydrogenase, and catalase appeared to be present based on a comparison of their electrophoretic mobility with that of protein standards of known Mw. Verification of beagle serum protein fractions by immunofixation electrophoresis and western blotting electrophoresis, with rabbit anti-human serum, indicated alpha 1-antitrypsin, albumin, haptoglobin, ceruloplasmin, C3c complement, IgG, and IgA. Serum protein fraction values (%) obtained by one- and two-dimensional analyses were similar.

Helicobacter pylori is a spiral Gram-negative microaerophilic bacterium. It is unique and distinctive among various bacterial pathogens for its ability to persist in the extreme acidic environment of human stomachs. To address and identify changes in the proteome of H. pylori in response to low pH, we have used a proteomic approach to study the protein expression of H. pylori under neutral (pH 7) and acidic (pH 5) conditions. Global protein-expression profiles of H. pylori under acid stress were analysed by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-DE) followed by liquid chromatography (LC)-nanoESI-mass spectrometry (MS)/MS and bioinformatics database analysis. Among the proteins differentially expressed under acidic condition, a non-heme iron-containing ferritin of H. pylori (HP-ferritin) was found to be consistently upregulated at pH 5 as compared to pH 7. It was also found that HP-ferritin can switch from an iron-storage protein with ferroxidase activity to a DNA-binding/protection function under in vitro conditions upon exposure to acidic environment. Prokaryotic ferritins, such as non-heme iron-binding HP-ferritin with dual functionality reported herein, may play a significant urease-independent role in the acid adaptation of H. pylori under physiological conditions in vivo.

All living systems depend on metalloproteins. Yet, while tools for the separation and identification of apo-proteins are well developed, those enabling identification and quantitation of individual metalloproteins within complex mixtures are still nascent. Here, we describe the electrophoretic separation of a mixture of carbonic anhydrase, ceruloplasmin, urease, and hemoglobin using native 2D gel electrophoresis and X-ray fluorescence mapping-an approach we have developed to be broadly applicable, not require specialized equipment for sample preparation, and likely to be extensible in the future.
