Thirty-six fibril-forming proteins have been identified. So far, proteomic evaluation of amyloid focused on the detection and characterization of fibril proteins mainly for diagnostic purposes or to find novel fibril-forming proteins. However, amyloid deposits are a complex mixture of constituents that show organ-, tissue-, and amyloid-type specific patterns, that is the amyloid proteome. We carried out a comprehensive literature review on publications investigating amyloid via liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry, including but not limited to sample preparation by laser microdissection. Our review confirms the complexity and dynamics of the amyloid proteome, which can be divided into four functional categories: amyloid proteome-category 1 (APC1) includes exclusively fibrillary proteins found in the patient; APC2 includes potential fibril-forming proteins found in other types of amyloid; and APC3 and APC4 summarizes non-fibril proteins-some being amyloid signature proteins. Our categorization may help to systemically explore the nature and role of the amyloid proteome in the manifestation, progression, and clearance of disease. Further exploration of the amyloid proteome may form the basis for the development of novel diagnostic tools, thereby enabling the development of novel therapeutic targets.</p>","PeriodicalId":10794,"journal":{"name":"Critical Reviews in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology","volume":" ","pages":"526-542"},"PeriodicalIF":6.5,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10409238.2021.1937926","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39224001","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
