Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biomedical technology, and in particular relates to a protein proximity labeling method activated by near-infrared light. Background Art
[0002] Proximity labeling techniques label biomolecules (usually proteins or RNA) that are in close proximity to a protein of interest. By creating a genetic fusion between the protein of interest and an engineered labeling enzyme in living cells, the biomolecule is brought into spatial proximity to the protein. The substance of interest can then be selectively labeled with biotin for pull-down and analysis. Proximity labeling has been used to identify components of novel cellular structures and to determine protein-protein interactions.
[0003] Among the existing proximity labeling technologies, APEX proximity labeling technology requires cells to be co-incubated with hydrogen peroxide. The toxicity of hydrogen peroxide will lead to poor biocompatibility of this technology. Due to its inefficient enzyme catalytic activity, BioID proximity labeling technology takes a long time to obtain effective labeling signals, making it difficult to effectively label transient protein interactions. RinID proximity labeling technology is also a reactive oxygen mediated proximity labeling technology, but the illumination wavelength required for its photosensitive protein miniSOG is in the 400nm band, which leads to its poor biocompatibility and high labeling signal background. Summary of the invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art and provide a method for protein proximity labeling activated by near-infrared light.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a method for near-infrared light-activated protein proximity labeling, the method comprising the following steps:
[0006] (1) Stably express dL5 protein plasmid in MCF-7 cells;
[0007] (2) co-incubating the MCF-7 cells with the MG2I substrate and m-aminophenylacetylene, and applying light at a wavelength of 660 nm to the cells;
[0008] The dL5 protein plasmid is a dL5 protein plasmid localized in the cell nucleus or a dL5 protein plasmid localized in the mitochondria. The DNA sequence of the dL5 protein plasmid localized in the cell nucleus is shown in SEQ ID NO.1, and the DNA sequence of the dL5 protein plasmid localized in the mitochondria is shown in SEQ ID NO.2;
[0009] The MG2I substrate has the following structural formula I;
[0010]
[0011] In the above method, further, the MG2I substrate is prepared by a method comprising the following steps:
[0012] S1, dissolving 3,5-diiodo-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, ethyl 4-bromobutyrate and potassium carbonate in an organic solution, and heating to react to obtain compound A;
[0013] S2, dissolving the compound A, N,N-dimethylaniline and zinc chloride in anhydrous ethanol, and heating to react to obtain compound B;
[0014] S3, dissolving the compound B and chlorobenzoquinone in acetonitrile, and heating the mixture to obtain MG2I;
[0015] The compound A has the following structural formula II:
[0016]
[0017] The compound B has the following structural formula II:
[0018]
[0019] The above method, further, the molar concentration ratio of 3,5-diiodo-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, ethyl 4-bromobutyrate, and potassium carbonate in S1 is: 1:1.2:1;
[0020] And / or, the organic solution is DMF;
[0021] And / or, the stirring reaction specifically comprises: stirring the reaction at 90° C. for 3 to 6 hours.
[0022] The above method, further, the molar concentration ratio of the compound A, N,N-dimethylaniline, and zinc chloride in S2 is: 1:2:1;
[0023] And / or, the stirring reaction is specifically: reacting at 80° C. for 24 to 48 hours.
[0024] In the above method, further, the molar concentration ratio of compound B and chloranil in S3 is: 1:1;
[0025] And / or, the stirring reaction is specifically: reacting at 80° C. for 3 to 6 hours.
[0026] In the above method, further, the step (1) is as follows: mixing the dL5 protein plasmid with PAX, PMD and p3000 to obtain a lentivirus; and infecting MCF-7 cells with the lentivirus.
[0027] In the above method, further, said (2) is specifically: incubating 500nmol / L MG2I and 1mmol / L m-aminophenylacetylene with MCF-7 cells for one hour; and irradiating the MCF-7 cells with light at 660nm for 20 minutes.
[0028] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:
[0029] (1) Provided is a proximity labeling method activated by near-infrared light: FAP-TAP, which consists of a fluorescent activated protein dL5 and a substrate MG2I that specifically binds thereto. FAP-TAP-mediated proximity labeling technology can effectively solve the problems of poor biocompatibility, long labeling time, and excessive labeling background in current proximity labeling technology. Under irradiation with 660nm near-infrared light, singlet oxygen can be generated quickly and efficiently. The singlet oxygen generated can oxidize the histidine residues of neighboring proteins, which enables some amine protein labeling probes to covalently react with the oxidized histidine residues to achieve proximity protein labeling. In summary, FAP-TAP-mediated proximity labeling technology can effectively solve the problems of poor biocompatibility, long labeling time, and excessive labeling background in current proximity labeling technology.

[0095] Experiment 6: Immunofluorescence imaging to investigate the proximity labeling effect of FAP-TAP on target proteins in living cells.
[0096] A solution containing 1mmol / L m-aminophenylacetylene and 500nmol / L MG2I (or no MG2I) prepared by HBSS was added to MCF-7 cells stably expressing mito-dL5 and ordinary MCF-7 cells, respectively, and incubated in a cell culture incubator at 37 degrees for 60 minutes. After incubation, the cells were washed once with 1×PBS solution and HBSS solution was added. The above cells were illuminated with a 660nm LED for 20 minutes. The cells were rinsed with PBS three times, and then 500μL 4% paraformaldehyde was added to fix for 15 minutes and then removed. They were rinsed with PBS three times for 5 minutes each. 100ul click chemistry reaction solution was added, and the concentrations of each component were 50umol / LCy3-azide, 2mmol / L CuSO4, 1mmol / L TBBAA, and 0.5mg / mL sodium ascorbate. The reaction was carried out at room temperature in the dark for 30 minutes. Rinse with PBS 6 times. 200μL membrane permeate was added and incubated at room temperature for 1h and then removed. The membrane permeate was made by mixing 167μL fetal bovine serum (FBS), 10μL TritonX-100 and 3.17μL PBS. 100μL primary antibody (1﹕100) was added and incubated at 4℃ overnight. After rinsing with PBS for 5 minutes each time, the secondary antibody (1﹕300) was added and incubated at room temperature in the dark for 2 hours. After rinsing with PBS, Hoechest staining was added for 10 minutes and confocal imaging was observed.
[0097] Fig. 9 The immunofluorescence imaging results of the proximity labeling effect of FAP-TAP on the target protein in living cells. As shown in Figure A, the fluorescence displayed by the labeled protein in the MCF-7 cells stably expressing mito-dL5 has a good co-localization result with the fluorescence displayed by V5-tag, indicating that the proximity labeling of the protein is mitochondrial specific. As shown in Figure B, the fluorescence displayed by the labeled protein in the MCF-7 cells stably expressing H2B-dL5 has a good co-localization result with the fluorescence displayed by V5-tag, indicating that the proximity labeling of the protein is nucleus specific.
