Problems solved by technology

At present, the conditions of this method still need to be optimized: self-cleavage peptides produced by too high trypsin amount will affect the detection of low-abundance proteins
However, if the amount of trypsin is too low, the slice thickness is very thin and the protein content is very low, so it cannot be digested effectively

[0053] Experiment on the Adsorption Ability of Graphene Oxide Material to Trypsin

[0054] Prepare graphene oxide material dispersion and trypsin solution with a final concentration of 400 ng / μL in 20 mM phosphate buffer solution (pH5), mix and incubate in equal proportions for a certain period of time, then centrifuge for 5 minutes to take the supernatant. The concentration of unfixed trypsin in the supernatant was determined using the BCA protein concentration assay. According to the concentration of trypsinogen and the concentration of unfixed trypsin in the supernatant, the adsorption amount of trypsin by the graphene oxide material was obtained.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of biochemical analysis, and relates to a new method for protein identification of a tissue section using immobilized enzyme (in situ enzymatic hydrolysis) and for application of results in imaging mass spectrometry. The method uses graphene oxide whose surface has hydrophilic groups such as hydroxyls and carboxyls to immobilize trypsins, realizes the efficient in situ enzymatic hydrolysis and identification of the protein in the tissue section by improving efficiency of the enzymatic hydrolysis, and applies the result to the imaging mass spectrometry technology for determining the distribution of the protein in the tissue section. The selected carrier material which is graphene oxide has strong adsorption ability, and the graphene oxide is capable of adsorbing the trypsins in a short time, and thus greatly improves efficiency of enzymatic hydrolysis of the trypsins by the confinement effect, and effectively promotes the enzymatic hydrolysis of the tissue section and the identification of protein. The method has characteristics of simple steps, of convenient operation, and of high speed and efficiency, and the method can be widely applied in related fields of proteomics.
