Abstract

Materials Science, Biomaterials Science & Technology Materials Science Technology
Understanding protein-protein interactions (PPIs) through proximity labeling has revolutionized our comprehension of cellular mechanisms and pathology. Various proximity labeling techniques, such as HRP, APEX, BioID, TurboID, and mu Map, have been widely used to biotinylate PPIs or organelles for proteomic profiling. However, the variability in labeling precision and efficiency of these techniques often results in limited reproducibility in proteomic detection. We address this persistent challenge by introducing proximity labeling expansion microscopy (PL-ExM), a super-resolution imaging technique that combines expansion microscopy with proximity labeling techniques. PL-ExM enabled up to 17 nm resolution with microscopes widely available, providing visual comparison of the labeling precision, efficiency, and false positives of different proximity labeling methods. Our mass spectrometry proteomic results confirmed that PL-ExM imaging is reliable in guiding the selection of proximity labeling techniques and interpreting the proteomic results with new spatial information. Proximity labeling expansion microscopy (PL-ExM) visualizes superresolution structures of interactome on widely accessible light microscopes, enabling the assessment of the precision and efficiency of proximity labeling techniques.
