We have improved upon the reference two-dimensional (2-D) electrophoretic map of rat liver proteins originally published in 1991 (N. L. Anderson et al., Electrophoresis 1991, 12, 907-930). A total of 53 proteins (102 spots) are now identified, many by microsequencing. In most cases, spots cut from wet, Coomassie Blue stained 2-D gels were submitted to internal tryptic digestion [2], and individual peptides, separated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), were sequenced using a Perkin-Elmer 477A sequenator. Additional spots were identified using specific antibodies.
