Abstrakt: The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a single cell layer adjacent to the rod and cone photoreceptors that plays key roles in retinal physiology and the biochemistry of vision. RPE cells were isolated from normal adult human donor eyes, subcellular fractions were prepared, and proteins were fractionated by electrophoresis. Following ingel proteolysis, proteins were identified by peptide sequencing using liquid chromatography tandem electrospray mass spectrometry and/or by peptide mass mapping using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Preliminary analyses have identified 278 proteins and provide a starting point for building a database of the human RPE proteome. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
