In a collaboration between Prof. Liu’s group at Yale University and Biognosys, we established a combined DIA-MS and pulse SILAC approach to unravel the correlation between protein degradation and mRNA abundances in HeLa cells. Among other improvements, the direct pSILAC-DIA approach offers better quantitative accuracy and richer quantitative features if compared to alternative strategies, resulting in a correlation between mRNA level and protein degradation rates to be resolved at the isoform levels.
