%X G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are hepta-helical transmembrane proteins that mediate various intracellular signaling events in response to their specific ligands including many lipid mediators. Although analyses of GPCR molecular interactions are pivotal to understanding diverse intracellular signaling events, affinity purification of interacting proteins by a conventional co-immunoprecipitation method is challenging due to the hydrophobic nature of GPCRs and their dynamic molecular interactions. Proximity labeling catalyzed by a TurboID system is a powerful technique for defining the molecular interactions of target proteins in living cells. TurboID and miniTurbo (a modified version of TurboID) are engineered biotin ligases that biotinylate neighboring proteins in a promiscuous manner. When fused with a target protein and expressed in living cells, TurboID or miniTurbo mediates the biotin labeling of the proteins with close proximity to the target protein, allowing efficient purification of the biotinylated proteins followed by a shot-gun proteomic analysis. In this chapter, we describe a step-by-step protocol for the labeling of GPCR neighboring proteins by TurboID or miniTurbo, purification of the biotin-labeled proteins, and subsequent sample preparation for proteomic analysis. We utilized S1PR1 as a model GPCR, a receptor for a bioactive lipid molecule sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) that plays various roles in physiological and pathological conditions. This analysis pipeline enables the mapping of interacting proteins of lipid GPCRs in living cells.
