Classification of mouse B cell types using surfaceome proteotype maps

Abstract

System-wide quantification of the cell surface proteotype and identification of extracellular glycosylation sites is challenging when samples are limited. Here, we miniaturize and automate the previously described Cell Surface Capture (CSC) technology, increasing sensitivity, reproducibility and throughput. We use this technology, which we call autoCSC, to create population-specific surfaceome maps of developing mouse B cells and use targeted flow cytometry to uncover developmental cell subpopulations.
