Abstract

Some anticarcinogen could treat cancers through regulating the synthesis and degradation of proteins. Therefore, the rules of newly synthesized proteins would be used to evaluate the effect of anticarcinogen. In this study, we coupled noncanonical amino acid tagging with click reaction to label the newly synthesized proteins in normal cells and cancerous cells. We studied the influence of six different drugs on the protein synthesis. The results showed the differences of protein synthesis rate and spatial distribution in normal cells and cancerous cells, as well as their different responding to anticarcinogen stimulation. This approach could help us to understand the growth of proteins and distinguish cancerous cells from normal cells, which would benefit the diagnosis and monitoring of cancer, as well as evaluating the curative effect of drugs. Based on this strategy, more significant biological process about newly synthesized biomolecules would be studied in-depth.
