Outline of Final Research Achievements |
EMARS method can label proteins in the immediate vicinity of a target membrane protein with fluorescein without destruction of cells or tissue integrity. We aimed to identify IgA deposits on glomerulus of biopsy samples of patients with IgA nephropathy bur found problems in specificity of labeling and low recovery of proteins. We, therefore, used glomeruli highly purified from rat kidneys and nephrin as a target protein to improve EMARS method. By using fluorescein-tyramide as a labeling reagent, labeling specificity was much improved and we succeeded in identification of many membrane proteins associates with nephrin in the slit diaphragm, but also find a low recovery and low specificity of labeled proteins in the step of collection of labeled proteins.
