Summary:The mass-spectrometry-based identification of proteins has created opportunities for the study of organelles, transport intermediates and large subcellular structures. Traditional cell-biology techniques are used to enrich these structures for proteomics analyses, and such analyses provide insights into the biology and functions of these structures. Here, we review the state-of-the-art proteomics techniques for the analysis of subcellular structures and discuss the biological insights that have been derived from such studies.
