| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a method to acquire local proteomics information from the biological samples subjected to tissue clearing. During the development, we noticed that the reagents used in the tissue-clearing method called CUBIC have following three problems: 1) the reagent(s) inhibits trypsin digestion reaction, 2) it sticks to the capillary of LC-MS system, and 3) it non-specifically binds to the reverse-phase resin used for the desalting peptides. To overcome these problems, we set up a screening system for novel cleansing reagents using purified proteins and cultured cells. We succeeded to find a set of chemicals that can achieve tissue clearing by delipidation and adjust the refractive index, while the chemicals have minimum effect on the protease activity, do not stick to the LC-MS capillaries as well as reverse-phase resin.
