In a preliminary report, Ross et al. [40] used affinity chromatography to identify a putative bovine renal brush border Na /H exchanger. Brush border membranes were solubilized with Triton X-100 and chromatographed sequentially over lentil lectin Sepharose 4B and 5-(A-benzyl-iV-ethyl)amiloride coupled to epoxy-activated Sepharose 6B. The eluant contained 178- and 146-kDa proteins that were susceptible to Endo-F. Moreover, the eluants reacted on dot blot immunoassays with antisera to a 20-amino acid peptide of a human Na /H exchanger vide infra). The relationship between these proteins and the 66-kDa protein previously identified by the same investigators using amiloride photolabeling is presently unclear. 

Another means of moving beyond pure protein preparations to high-throughput characterization of proteomes is to enrich for phosphopeptides from complex mixtures by metal affinity chromatography (Andersson and Porath, 1986). Using this method, protein mixtures are proteolyzed to create peptides and phosphorylated peptides are enriched by metal affinity chromatography and subsequently identified by mass spectrometry. This method is limited, however, because in many cases phosphopeptides absorb poorly or nonphosphorylated peptides absorb nonspecifically to the metal affinity resins (Ahn and Resing, 2001).

FIGURE 15.3 Outline of experimental protocol used for ICAT differential protein expression profiling. Protein mixtures from two cell populations are labeled with light or heavy isotopic versions of a cleavable ICAT reagent. Labeled proteins are combined, subject to multidimensional separation by SCX, RP, and avidin affinity chromatography, then analyzed by tandem MS for peptide and protein identification. Based on the relative ratio of the two isotopically labeled peptides, a relative abundance of protein expression can be determined. 

With the development of appropriate cartridges and proper chemistry that would allow the synthesis of the molecule on the disk and than the use of the same disk directly for affinity chromatography by placing it in a chromatographic cartridge, it is reasonable to expect that SMC will become a very efficient tool in the solid phase synthesis of peptides, oligonucleotides, and similar molecules.
