Chemoproteomics Reveals USP5 (Ubiquitin Carboxyl-Terminal Hydrolase 5) as Promising Target of the Marine Polyketide Gracilioether A.

ABSTRACT: Mass spectrometry-based chemical proteomic approaches using limited proteolysis have become a powerful tool for the identification and analysis of the interactions between a small molecule (SM) and its protein target(s). Gracilioether A (GeA) is a polyketide isolated from a marine sponge, for which we aimed to trace the interactome using this strategy. DARTS (Drug Affinity Responsive Target Stability) and t-LiP-MS (targeted-Limited Proteolysis-Mass Spectrometry) represented the main techniques used in this study. DARTS was applied on HeLa cell lysate for the identification of the GeA target proteins, and t-LiP-MS was employed to investigate the protein's regions involved in the binding with GeA. The results were complemented through the use of binding studies using Surface Plasmon Resonanc
