Abstract

Environmental metaproteomics is a rapidly advancing field that provides insights into the structure, dynamics, and metabolic activity of microbial communities. As the field is still maturing, it lacks consistent workflows, making it challenging for non-expert researchers to navigate. This review aims to introduce the workflow of environmental metaproteomics. It outlines the standard practices for sample collection, processing, and analysis, and offers strategies to overcome the unique challenges presented by common environmental matrices such as soil, freshwater, marine environments, biofilms, sludge, and symbionts. The review also highlights the bottlenecks in data analysis that are specific to metaproteomics samples and provides suggestions for researchers to obtain high-quality datasets. It includes recent benchmarking studies and descriptions of software packages specifically built for metaproteomics analysis. The article is written without assuming the reader's familiarity with single-organism proteomic workflows, making it accessible to those new to proteomics or mass spectrometry in general. This primer for environmental metaproteomics aims to improve accessibility to this exciting technology and empower researchers to tackle challenging and ambitious research questions. While it is primarily a resource for those new to the field, it should also be useful for established researchers looking to streamline or troubleshoot their metaproteomics experiments.

环境元蛋白质组学工作流程的关键步骤
环境元蛋白质组学是一个快速发展的领域,它能让人们深入了解微生物群落的结构、动态和代谢活动。由于该领域仍处于成熟期,缺乏统一的工作流程,因此对于非专业研究人员来说,要驾驭该领域具有挑战性。本综述旨在介绍环境元蛋白质组学的工作流程。它概述了样本采集、处理和分析的标准实践,并提供了克服土壤、淡水、海洋环境、生物膜、污泥和共生体等常见环境基质所带来的独特挑战的策略。综述还强调了元蛋白质组学样本特有的数据分析瓶颈,并为研究人员提供了获得高质量数据集的建议。文章还介绍了最近的基准研究以及专为元蛋白质组学分析而开发的软件包。文章在编写过程中没有假定读者熟悉单生物体蛋白质组学工作流程,因此蛋白质组学或质谱分析的新手也可以阅读。这本环境元蛋白质组学入门书旨在提高这一令人兴奋的技术的可及性,使研究人员有能力解决具有挑战性和雄心勃勃的研究问题。虽然它主要是为这一领域的新手提供资源,但对于希望简化元蛋白质组学实验或排除其故障的成熟研究人员来说,它也应该是有用的。
