2. 2-D gel electrophoresis
2D analysis experiments commonly address questions like Protein level
Differences caused by
disease state
drug treatment
life-cycle stage
Some protein level differences studied are small and the results are affected
by experimental variation originating both from the system and from inherent
biological variation
Misdiagnosis is dangerous
3. Limitations of conventional 2D gel
1. Only one dye can be used at a time for one gel
6 gels made from the very same sample, run in
parallel (SYPRO Ruby)
2. We run as many gel as many samples are there
3. Cannot control the variation in loss of proteins for
each gel
4. Differential analysis is difficult
5. Statistical confidence is less
6.
Proteins with PI beyond the pH limits of strips cannot be
focused on strips
Conventional 2-D

gel 2
Are spot differences real?
4. Variation in 2D gel
System related variations
1. Gel-to-gel variation, which can result from differences in electrophoretic
conditions between first dimension strips or second dimension gels, gel
distortions, sample application variation and user-to-user variation.
2. Variation due to user-specific editing and interpretation when using the data
analysis software.
Inherent biological variation
Inherent biological variation arises from intrinsic differences that occur within a
population. For example, differences from animal-to-animal, plant-to-plant or
culture-to-culture which have been subjected to identical conditions
Induced biological change
1. Differences due to disease state, drug treatment, life cycle stage
5. What we want ???
Least gel to gel variation
Normalization of biological variation
Least number of gels run
Differential expression analysis
Statistical confidence in presenting our result
How to avoid uncontrolled protein loss
Is there any way out
6. What is DIGE and why is it needed
Covalent derivatization of proteins with fluorophores in complex protein mixtures
prior to IEF and SDS-PAGE allows detection and quantification of differences in protein
abundance between different biological samples within one single gel
DIGE system allows the inherent biological variation to be effectively differentiated from induced biological changes
DIGE system is capable of detecting and quantifying differences as small as 10% between samples (above system
variation) with greater than 95% statistical confidence.

7. CyDye DIGE Fluor minimal dyes
Chemical description
1. Spectrally distinct: resolvable dyes (Cy™2, Cy3 and Cy5), discrete signals
2. Size and charge matched: labeled samples co-migrate within gel
3. Each adds 450 Da to the mass of the protein. This mass shift does not effect the pattern
visible on a second dimension SDS PAGE gel.
4. multiplexing possible: A protein labeled with any of the CyDye DIGE Fluor minimal dyes
will migrate to the same position on the second dimension SDS PAGE gel

Sensitivity
Great sensitivity: down to 25 pg of a single protein, and a linear response to protein
concentration up to five orders of magnitude (105).
*silver stain detects 1–60 ng of protein with a dynamic range of less than two orders of
magnitude
*Comassie Brilliant Blue sensitivity = 0.5µg/cm2 of protein present in a gel matrix
8. Protein labeling
Minimal labeling: With CyDye DIGE Fluor minimal dyes 50 μg protein is labeled in each
reaction with 400 pmole dyes. The ratio ensures that the dyes label approximately 1–
2% of lysine residues so each labeled protein carries only one dye label and is
vizualised as a single protein spot.
The lysine amino acid in proteins carries an intrinsic +1 charge at neutral or acidic
pH. CyDye DIGE Fluor minimal dyes also carry a +1 charge which, when coupled to
the lysine, replaces the lysine’s +1 charge with its own, ensuring that the pI of the
protein does not significantly alter.
9. Experimental design
1. Inclusion of an internal standard sample on each gel
2. The requirement for biological replicates such as multiple
cultures, tissue etc.
3. Randomization of samples to produce unbiased results, thus
conforming with best experimental practice
4. No gel replicates of the same sample is needed
10. Randomization

Randomization of samples
Randomization of samples across gels removes any bias from the experiments such as experimental
conditions, sample handling and labeling
Even if the system related result variation is low using DIGE System it is good laboratory practice to
distribute individual experimental samples evenly between different CyDye DIGE Fluor dyes and
different gels to avoid systematic errors.
11. Using internal standard
The internal standard is used to match and normalize the protein patterns across
different gels thereby negating the problem of inter-gel variation, a common
problem in standard “one sample per gel” 2D electrophoresis experiments
The internal standard allows accurate quantization of differences between samples
Benefits of the internal standard
Gel-to-gel (system) variation is eliminated
The internal standard appears on all gels and contains all spots (average)
Easier gel-to-gel matching (between identical spot maps)
2-D DIGE is the only protein 2-D approach which allows multiplexing
2-D DIGE is the only 2-D approach enabling use of an internal standard

To compare protein spot volumes across a range of experimental samples and
gels, two distinct steps are required
• Intra-gel co-detection of sample and internal standard protein spots
• Inter-gel matching of internal standard samples across all gels within the
experiment
18. Inter-gel matching
It is important to ensure that the same protein spots are compared between gels.

19. Protein abundance/Differential expression
Direct comparison of spot volume or compare the ratio of spot volume of sample to
the internal standard???
Differences in spot intensity that may arise due to experimental factors during the process of
2D electrophoresis, such as protein loss during sample transfer, will be the same for each
sample within a single gel, including the internal standard.
20. Statistical tests of protein abundance in DeCyder 2D
Student’s T-test and ANOVA. The statistical tests compare the average
ratio and variation within each group to the average ratio and variation
in the other groups to see if any change between the groups is
significant.

Editor's Notes
The 2D DIGE technology with two different samples and an internal standard per gel labelled with CyDye™ DIGE Fluor minimal dyes, significantly reduces the required number of gels compared to conventional 2D electrophoresis. The internal standard significantly reduces the gel to gel variation and thereby improves statistical validity.
CyDye DIGE Fluor minimal dyes are three spectrally resolvable dyes (Cy™2, Cy3 and Cy5) matched for mass and charge. Each CyDye DIGE Fluor minimal dye, when coupled to a protein, will add 450 Da to the mass of the protein. This mass shift does not effect the pattern visible on a second dimension SDS PAGE gel. A protein labeled with any of the CyDye DIGE Fluor minimal dyes will migrate to the same position on the second dimension SDS PAGE gel, thus making multiplexing possible.
DeCyder 2D contains proprietary algorithms that perform co-detection of differently labeled samples within the same gel. DeCyder 2D also permits automated detection, background subtraction, quantitation, normalization, internal standardization and inter-gel matching. The benefits are low user interaction, high throughput and low experimental variation.
Experimental design ensures that each gel contains the same internal standard. This enables inter-gel comparisons of spot abundance. Before this can be done, it is important to ensure that the same protein spots are compared between gels. DeCyder 2D achieves this using the internal standard to match the position of each protein across all gels within the experiment. The internal standard image with the most detected spots is assigned as the 'Master'. Following co-detection, each image has a spot map species. The spot map species for the internal standard assigned as the Master, is used as a template to which all remaining spot map species for the other internal standards (intrinsically linked to their codetectedsample images) are matched
