Effect of CyDye minimum labeling in differential gel electrophoresis on the reliability of protein identification

Abstract: Differential 2-DE (DIGE) is a widely applied tool for the quantitative analysis of differentially represented proteins. The method involves covalent minimal labeling of proteins prior to their electrophoretic separation using CyDye DIGE Fluor minimal dyes. This methodology creates two different species per protein, the labeled (approx. 1-2%) and unlabeled (approx. 98-99%) ones, which differ in their molecular masses by 434-464 Da, depending on the attached dye. DIGE followed by automated spot picking according… Show more

“…Because only one gel is used in DIGE, and the same proteins from two different protein samples co-migrate as single spots, there is no need for many replicates, making spot comparison and protein quantitation much more convenient and reliable. This makes DIGE potentially amendable for high-throughput proteomics applications [22]. …”

“…The level of significance among the replicates was compiled by student’s t-test set to 0.05. Since we and others observed molecular weight shifts resulting by minimal labeling [40], gels were post-stained with Flamingo Pink (Bio Rad) according to the manufactures instructions. The post-stained gels were analyzed using Image Master 6.0 (GE Healthcare).…”

“…5 664 nm) allows relative quantification of all proteins detected in the three samples. However, this labeling technique is less sensitive than silver staining [8], and the Cy2-, Cy3-, and Cy5-labels affect the protein separation in both IEF and SDS-PAGE [9], especially for small proteins. Whereas these differences can be corrected by the imaging software, the high content of unlabeled proteins separated from the labeled, and thus detected species, is a more serious problem.…”
