The mammalian 20S catalytic core of the proteasome is composed of 14 different subunits and exists as different subtypes depending on cell type. Proteasome activity is altered by post-translational modifications and genetic variants. A new miniaturized workflow combining top-down and bottom-up mass spectrometry is presented for analyzing proteasome assembly status and full proteoform footprint.
The mammalian 20S catalytic core of the proteasome is made of 14 different subunits (alpha 1-7 and beta 1-7) but exists as different subtypes depending on the cell type. In immune cells, for instance, constitutive catalytic proteasome subunits can be replaced by the so-called immuno-catalytic subunits, giving rise to the immunoproteasome. Proteasome activity is also altered by post-translational modifications (PTMs) and by genetic variants. Immunochemical methods are commonly used to investigate these PTMs whereby protein-tagging is necessary to monitor their effect on 20S assembly. Here, we present a new miniaturized workflow combining top-down and bottom-up mass spectrometry of immunopurified 20S proteasomes that analyze the proteasome assembly status as well as the full proteoform footprint, revealing PTMs, mutations, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and induction of immune-subunits in different biological samples, including organoids, biopsies and B-lymphoblastoid cell lines derived from patients with proteasome-associated autoinflammatory syndromes (PRAAS). We emphasize the benefits of using top-down mass spectrometry in preserving the endogenous conformation of protein modifications, while enabling a rapid turnaround (1 h run) and ensuring high sensitivity (1-2 pmol) and demonstrate its capacity to semi-quantify constitutive and immune proteasome subunits.
