ABSTRACT
Proteomic analysis by mass spectrometry of small (≤2 mg) solid tissue samples from diverse formats requires high throughput and comprehensive proteome coverage. We developed a nearly universal, rapid, and robust protocol for sample preparation, suitable for high-throughput projects that encompass most cell or tissue types. This end-to-end workflow extends from original sample to loading the mass spectrometer and is centered on a one-tube homogenization and digestion method called Heat 'n Beat (HnB). It is applicable to most tissues, regardless of how they were fixed or embedded. Sample preparation was divided into separate challenges. The initial sample washing and final peptide cleanup steps were adapted to three tissue sources fresh frozen (FF), optimal cutting temperature (OCT) compound embedded (FF-OCT), and formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE). Third, for core processing, tissue disruption and lysis were decreased to a 7 min heat and homogenization treatment, and reduction, alkylation, and proteolysis were optimized into a single step. The refinements produced near doubled peptide yield when compared to our earlier method ABLE delivered a consistently high digestion efficiency of 85-90%, reported by ProteinPilot, and required only 38 min for core processing in a single tube, with the total processing time being 53-63 min. The robustness of HnB was demonstrated on six organ types, a cell line, and a cancer biopsy. Its suitability for high-throughput applications was demonstrated on a set of 1171 FF-OCT human cancer biopsies, which were processed for end-to-end completion in 92 h, producing highly consistent peptide yield and quality for over 3513 MS runs.
