    Abstract:
    Affinity purification coupled with mass spectrometry (AP-MS) and proximity-dependent biotinylation identification (BioID) methods have made substantial contributions to interaction proteomics studies. Whereas AP-MS results in the identification of proteins that are in a stable complex, BioID labels and identifies proteins that are in close proximity to the bait, resulting in overlapping yet distinct protein identifications. Integration of AP-MS and BioID data has been shown to comprehensively characterize a protein's molecular context, but interactome analysis using both methods in parallel is still labor and resource intense with respect to cell line generation and protein purification. Therefore, we developed the Multiple Approaches Combined (MAC)-tag workflow, which allows for both AP-MS and BioID analysis with a single construct and with almost identical protein purification and mass spectrometry (MS) identification procedures. We have applied the MAC-tag workflow to a selection of subcellular markers to provide a global view of the cellular protein interactome landscape. This localization database is accessible via our online platform ( http://proteomics.fi ) to predict the cellular localization of a protein of interest (POI) depending on its identified interactors. In this protocol, we present the detailed three-stage procedure for the MAC-tag workflow: (1) cell line generation for the MAC-tagged POI; (2) parallel AP-MS and BioID protein purification followed by MS analysis; and (3) protein interaction data analysis, data filtration and visualization with our localization visualization platform. The entire procedure can be completed within 25 d.
