Patients with psychiatric disorders exhibit dysfunctions in peripheral and central metabolism. This may be a root cause of impaired neuronal function, manifested as changes in mood, behavior, and cognitive capabilities in patients suffering with these conditions. Here we describe a selective reaction monitoring mass spectrometry (SRM-MS)-based targeted proteomic protocol for precise simultaneous quantitation of three glycolytic enzymes in postmortem brain tissue extracts. The SRM-MS approach has several advantages in terms of sensitivity, reproducibility, and reduced sample consumption, compared to traditional MS methods.
