Abstract
Spatial proteomics has provided important insights into the relationship between protein function and subcellular location. Localization of Organelle Proteins by Isotope Tagging (LOPIT) and its variants are proteome-wide techniques, not matched in scale by microscopy-based or proximity tagging-based techniques, allowing holistic mapping of protein subcellular location and re-localization events downstream of cellular perturbations. LOPIT can be a powerful and versatile tool in drug discovery for unlocking important information on disease pathophysiology, drug mechanism of action, and off-target toxicity screenings. Here, we discuss technical concepts of LOPIT with its potential applications in drug discovery and development research.
