We report on the analysis of endogenous peptides in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) by mass spectrometry. A method was developed for preparation of peptide extracts from CSF. Analysis of the extracts by offline LC-MALDI MS resulted in the detection of 3,000-4,000 peptide-like features. Out of these, 730 peptides were identified by MS/MS. The majority of these peptides have not been previously reported in CSF. The identified peptides were found to originate from 104 proteins, of which several have been reported to be involved in different disorders of the central nervous system. These results support the notion that CSF peptidomics may be viable complement to proteomics in the search of biomarkers of CNS disorders.

Centralized, standards compliant, public data repository for proteomics data, including protein and peptide identifications, post-translational modifications and supporting spectral evidence. Originally it was developed to provide a common data exchange format and repository to support proteomics literature publications. This remit has grown with PRIDE, with the hope that PRIDE will provide a reference set of tissue-based identifications for use by the community. The future development of PRIDE has become closely linked to HUPO PSI. PRIDE encourages and welcomes direct user submissions of protein and peptide identification data to be published in peer-reviewed publications. Users may Browse public datasets, use PRIDE BioMart for custom queries, or download the data directly from the FTP site. PRIDE has been developed through a collaboration of the EMBL-EBI, Ghent University in Belgium, and the University of Manchester.
