Intracristal space proteome mapping using super-resolution proximity labeling with isotope-coded probes

초록

Proximity labeling with engineered ascorbate peroxidase (APEX) has been widely used to identify proteomes within various membrane-enclosed subcellular organelles. However, constructing protein distribution maps between two non-partitioned proximal spaces remains challenging with the current proximity labeling tools. Here, we introduce a proximity labeling approach using isotope-coded phenol probes for APEX labeling (ICAX) that enables the quantitative analysis of the spatial proteome at nanometer resolution between two distinctly localized APEX enzymes. Using this technique, we identify the spatial proteomic architecture of the mitochondrial intracristal space (ICS), which is not physically separated from the peripheral space. ICAX analysis further reveals unexpected dynamics of the mitochondrial spatiome under mitochondrial contact site and cristae organizing system (MICOS) complex inhibition and mitochondrial uncoupling, respectively. Overall, these findings highlight the importance of ICS for mitochondrial quality control under dynamic stress conditions.
