Were identified by performing a database search using MASCOT. Two 58-49-1 perfusion-driven urine samples acquired from two independent isolated rat kidneys were analyzed using different mass spectrometry platforms, an LTQ Orbitrap Velos platform and a high speed TripleTOF 5600 system. A total of 1,782 and 3,025 proteins, respectively, were identified with more than two distinct peptides (Table S1). There are 1,402 [DTrp6]-LH-RH biological activity proteins common to both samples. The proteins common to both methods were subjected to subsequent analysis.2.2 Identification of human orthologs for the proteins in isolated rat kidney perfusion-driven urine. This study aimsDatabase Searching and Protein IdentificationAll of the MS/MS spectra were searched against the rat IPI 3.87 protein database using MASCOT 2.4.0. The search parameters were set as follows: tryptic cleavages at only lysine or arginine with up to two missed cleavage sites allowed; fixed cystein carbamidomethylation; variable aspartic acid and glutamine deamidation; and variable methionine oxidation. For MS files acquired from the LTQ Orbitrap Velos, the precursor mass tolerance was set to 10 ppm and the fragment mass tolerance to 0.5 Da. For MS files acquired from the TripleTOF 5600, the precursor mass tolerance was set to 0.05 Da and the fragment mass tolerance to 0.05 Da.to find human kidney origin proteins in urine. It is typically assumed that orthologs (co-orthologs) retain similar functions between species [14,15]. Therefore, we identified human orthologs for proteins in the isolated rat kidney perfusion-driven urine. However, there is currently no “gold standard” for identifying a complete set of orthologs between two species [16]. Different orthologous protein databases use the different orthology prediction methods and thus yielded different and overlapping results. InParanoid [17], OrthoMCL-DB [18], Homogene [19], and Ensembl Compare [20] are four well-known databases thatEnrichment Analysis of Gene Ontology CategoriesBiNGO, a Cytoscape plug-in, was used to find statistically overrepresented GO categories [13]. The whole human release of the UniProt-GOA Database, available from the EBI website, was used as a reference dataset. The human kidney origin proteins in urine were performed the enrichment analysis. The analysis was performed using the “hyper geometric test”, and all GO terms that were significant (P,0.001) after correcting for multiple term testing using the Benjamini and Hochberg false discovery rate correction were selected as overrepresented.Results 1. SDS PAGE Analysis of the Perfusion-driven UrineThe proteins in the perfusion-driven urine were separated using SDS-PAGE. Equal volumes of the perfusion-driven urine were loaded. As shown in Figure 1A, the proteins present in the perfusion-driven urine were quite different from those in either the plasma or urine. There was no apparent difference in the proteins present in the perfusion-driven urine with and without oxygen supplementation, which may be due to the poor resolving power of SDS-PAGE (Figure 1B). In the perfusion-driven urine with oxygen supplementation, the concentration of the proteins decreased asFigure 1. SDS-PAGE analysis of perfusion-driven urine. (A) The proteins from the perfusion-driven urine with oxygen supplementation were resolved and compared with the proteins present in rat plasma and rat urine.
