Targeting the proteome of cellular fractions: focus on secreted proteins

Methods Mol Biol. 2015:1243:29-41. doi: 10.1007/978-1-4939-1872-0_2.

Abstract

The high complexity of the total cellular proteome underscores the need for a more targeted investigation of particular subcellular fractions as a means to detect the changes at the level of low abundance proteins. However, this approach requires the application of an enrichment strategy. In this chapter, we present the protocols, which have been used for the analysis of secretome from cell lines, targeting the investigation of protein expression changes.
