Various types of samples can be processed by this protocol using two workflows. Workflow A comprises four major steps, including tissue lysis, protein reduction and alkylation, Lys-C digestion and trypsin digestion. A simplified workflow B can achieve comparable performance. The resultant peptides are cleaned using C18 cartridges before LC–MS/MS analysis. NPT, normal pressure and temperature; ESI, electrospray ionization; TOF-MS, time-of-flight mass spectrometry.
