Deep phosphotyrosine characterisation of primary murine T cells using broad spectrum optimisation of selective triggering.

ABSTRACT: Sequencing the tyrosine phosphoproteome using MS-based proteomics is challenging due to the low abundance of tyrosine phosphorylation in cells, a challenge compounded in scarce samples like primary cells or clinical samples. The broad-spectrum optimisation of selective triggering (BOOST) method was recently developed to increase phosphotyrosine sequencing in low protein input samples by leveraging tandem mass tags (TMT), phosphotyrosine enrichment, and a phosphotyrosine-loaded carrier channel. Here, we demonstrate the viability of BOOST in T cell receptor (TCR)-stimulated primary murine T cells by benchmarking the accuracy and precision of the BOOST method and discerning significant alterations in the phosphoproteome associated with receptor stimulation.
