Popis: This study is part of a large-scale investigation of the proteome of mitochondria from the heart muscle of Bos taurus. We developed a special approach to simplification of the protein mixture by separation of mitochondrial fractions with stable protein compositions. At the first stage of this approach, we isolated and purified internal mitochondrial membranes. The protein composition of this fraction was analyzed by the following proteomic methods: enzymatic or/and chemical cleavage of the proteins, chromatographic fractionation of the complex mixture of the resulting peptides, mass-spectrometric identification of these peptides, and a search for proteins in databases of amino acid sequences. We reliably identified 147 unique proteins with the use of the SwissProt database. The subcellular location and functions of these proteins were analyzed. Approaches to studies of transmembrane domains of integral membrane proteins of the internal mitochondrial membrane were proposed on the basis of proteomic methods of analysis. Considerable coincidence of the experimental data with the results of determination of the 3D structures of the proteins by X-ray analysis was shown.
