Characterizing the proteome of the human dorsolateral prefrontal cortex by shotgun mass spectrometry

The studies of neuropsychiatric disorders would be facilitated by enhanced knowledge of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) proteome. To construct a data set of human DLPFC proteins, protein extracts were prepared from 12 postmortem brains focussing on the DLPFC region (Brodmann area 9) and analyzed using a combined gel electrophoresis and shotgun mass spectrometry approach, featuring data‐independent label‐free nanoflow liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (nLC‐MSE). The detected mass/time features were aligned and annotated using the results from ProteinLynx Global Server. The resulting data set comprised 488 unique and accurately identified proteins, with stringent identification by a minimum of two distinct peptides detected at least in >75% of samples. These proteins were involved predominantly in cytoskeletal architecture, metabolism, transcription/translation, and synaptic function. Combination of this data set with that obtained by our previous characterization of the same brain region results in a total of 755 unique proteins, making this the most comprehensive analysis of this important brain region to date.
