The proteins of the postsynaptic density (PSD) fraction of cerebral cortex were resolved by two-dimensional electrophoresis (2DE) and more than 30 proteins identified by characteristic 2DE mobility, immunoblotting with specific antibodies, and N-terminal and peptide sequencing. The PSD fraction is enriched for spectrin, actin, tublin and microtubule associated protein II, myosin, enzymes of glycolysis, creatine kinase, elongation factor 1 alpha, and receptor protein. The three neurofilament proteins are detected but a 58-kDa protein is prominent and is, by peptide sequencing, the bovine homolog of the recently cloned 66-kDa neurofilament protein; in contrast to the latter, however, it is enriched in cerebrum compared with spinal cord. A 68-kDa protein is identified as a member of the hsp70/BiP family of proteins. A protein, designated dynamin, indicating its putative role as a microtubule motor, is identified as a major protein, is found, however, greatly enriched in the particulate fraction, and is significantly denaturant and detergent insoluble. A protein designated N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor is also detected. Thus, two proteins implicated in vesicular transport are present in the PSD fraction. Seven polyclonal antibodies were produced to 2DE separated and electroeluted proteins of the PSD and were identified by peptide sequence analysis and 2DE profile as the hsp70/BiP homologous protein, the novel neurofilament protein synapsin IIa, pyruvate kinase, dynamin, aconitase and an unknown contaminating protein, and a 115-kDa protein that by subcellular fractionation and immunoblotting is a diagnostic PSD molecule. In addition, peptide sequences are obtained for four additional higher molecular weight proteins of the PSD that are not related at the level of primary structure to any known proteins.

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and tandem mass spectrometry were used to identify proteins associated with a metabolic shift during fed-batch cultures of two recombinant antibody-producing CHO cell lines. The first cell line underwent a marked change in lactate metabolism during culture, initially producing lactate and then consuming it, while the second cell line produced lactate for a similar duration but did not later consume it. The first cell line displayed a declining specific antibody productivity during culture, correlating to the 2-D gel results and the intracellular antibody concentration determined by HPLC. Several statistical analysis methods were compared during this work, including a fixed fold-change criterion and t-tests using standard deviations determined in several ways from the raw data and mathematically transformed data. Application of a variance-stabilizing transformation enabled the use of a global empirical standard deviation in the t-tests. Most of the protein spots changing in each cell line did not change significantly in the other cell line. A substantial fraction of the changing proteins were glycolytic enzymes; others included proteins related to antibody production, protein processing, and cell structure. Enolase, pyruvate kinase, BiP/GRP78, and protein disulfide isomerase were found in spots that changed over time in both cell lines, and some protein changes differed from previous reports. These data provide a foundation for future investigation of metabolism in industrially relevant mammalian cell culture processes, and suggest that along with differences between cell types, the proteins expressed in cultures with low lactate concentrations may depend on how those conditions were generated.
