Popis: Abstract Accurate measurements of cellular protein concentrations are invaluable to quantitative studies of gene expression and physiology in living cells. Here, we developed a versatile mass spectrometric workflow based on data‐independent acquisition proteomics (DIA/SWATH) together with a novel protein inference algorithm (xTop). We used this workflow to accurately quantify absolute protein abundances in Escherichiacoli for > 2,000 proteins over > 60 growth conditions, including nutrient limitations, non‐metabolic stresses, and non‐planktonic states. The resulting high‐quality dataset of protein mass fractions allowed us to characterize proteome responses from a coarse (groups of related proteins) to a fine (individual) protein level. Hereby, a plethora of novel biological findings could be elucidated, including the generic upregulation of low‐abundant proteins under various metabolic limitations, the non‐specificity of catabolic enzymes upregulated under carbon limitation, the lack of large‐scale proteome reallocation under stress compared to nutrient limitations, as well as surprising strain‐dependent effects important for biofilm formation. These results present valuable resources for the systems biology community and can be used for future multi‐omics studies of gene regulation and metabolic control in E. coli.
