AbstractBACKGROUND:The nucleus is a complex cellular organelle and accurately defining its protein content is essential before any systematic characterisation can be considered. RESULTS:Here, we report direct evidence for 2568 mammalian proteins within the nuclear proteome: the nuclear subcellular localization of 1529 proteins based on a high-throughput subcellular localization protocol of full-length proteins and an additional 1039 proteins for which clear experimental evidence is documented in published literature. CONCLUSIONS:This represents direct experimental evidence that the nuclear proteome consists of at least 14% of the entire proteome. This high-quality nuclear proteome dataset was used to evaluate computational approaches designed to identify additional nuclear proteins. Based on this analysis researchers can determine the stringency and types of lines of evidence they consider to infer the size and complement of the nuclear proteome.
