文摘

Functional nanomaterials, used as nanoreactors, have shown great advantages in a variety of applications in biomedical fields. Herein, we designed a novel nanoreactor system toward the application in membrane proteomics by using polydopamine-coated nanoporous graphene foams (NGFs-PD) prepared by a facile in situ oxidative polymerization. Taking advantage of the unique 3-D structure and surface functionalization, NGFs-PD can quickly adsorb a large amount of hydrophobic membrane proteins dissolved in sodium dodecyl sulfonate (SDS)/methanol and hydrophilic trypsin in aqueous solution, and then confine the proteolysis in the nanoscale domains to fasten the reaction rate. Therefore, the current nanoreactor system combines the multifunctions of highly efficient solubilization, immobilization, and proteolysis of membrane proteins. With the nanoreactor, digestion of standard membrane proteins can be finished in 10 min. 893 membrane proteins were identified from human glioma cells (U251). All these superiorities indicate that the biocompatible NGFs-PD nanoreactor system is of great promise to facilitate high-throughput membrane proteomic analysis.
