Embodiment 1

[0731] Use protein topology and migration analysis platform to identify proteolytic fragments and alternative splicing products from AARS

[0732] In order to identify AARS fragments from cell lines, conditioned media, and tissues, samples were prepared as follows:

[0733] Mouse macrophages (RAW 264.7), cytosol and conditioned medium: 15x10 with serum-free DMEM medium 6 The density of cells / flask handles the cells. After 48 hours, the conditioned medium and cell pellet were collected and processed. 200 μg of protein was separated from the secretory and cytosolic proteome fraction by SDS-PAGE, and gel slices were prepared for analysis by mass spectrometry.

[0734] Mouse pancreatic tissue: The pancreas was excised from three mice, dounced homogenized, and sonicated in PBS containing protease inhibitors. The cytosolic protein group was separated by centrifugation, and 200 μg of protein was separated by SDS-PAGE, and gel slices were prepared for analysis by mass spectrometry.

Embodiment 2

[0740] Use deep sequencing to identify splice variants

[0741] High-throughput sequencing of a cDNA library enriched with aminoacyl tRNA synthetase transcripts was used to identify splice variants of aminoacyl tRNA synthetase. Prepare cDNA templates from total RNA extracts from tissues such as adult brain and fetal brain, and use primer sequences specific for all annotated exons of human aminoacyl tRNA synthetase and related proteins to enrich aminoacyl tRNA synthesis Enzyme transcript.

[0742] Human total RNA was obtained from Clontech. For cell lines and mouse tissue samples, RNA extraction II kit (MN) was used to extract total RNA. The genomic DNA in the total RNA sample is digested by DNase I. In order to obtain mature messenger RNA (mRNA), the RNA sample was enriched twice by combining poly A+ RNA and digesting the 5'-cap-free RNA by 5'-phosphate-dependent exonuclease. The complementary DNA (cDNA) is synthesized from mature RNA using primers that anneal to the exon seque...

Embodiment 3

[0746] Use bioinformatics to identify AARS peptides

[0747] Use bioinformatics to identify AARS protein fragments (excision protein or appendacrine peptide). Use a program such as FASTA (available from the website http: / / fasta.bioch.virginia.edu / fasta_www2 / fasta_www.cgi) or NCBI's BLASTP program (available from the website http: / / www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov / blast / Blast.cgi?PROGRAM=blastp&BLAST_PROGRAMS=blastp&PAGE_TYPE=BlastSearch&SHOW_DEFAULTS=on&LINK_LOC=blasthom) to compare the amino acid sequence of the full-length human aminoacyl tRNA synthetase with the full-length amino acid sequence of its ortholog from the bacterial E. coli. When there are gaps in the aligned bacterial sequences, or regions with low homology between the two species, the excision protein sequence from the human protein is identified as a sequence coverage area. The peptides and corresponding DNA sequences in Tables 3, 6, and 9 include examples identified in this way.
