A computational tool to infer enzyme activity using post-translational modification profiling data.

ABSTRACT: Enzymes play a pivotal role in orchestrating complex cellular responses to external stimuli and environmental changes through signal transduction pathways. Despite their crucial roles, measuring enzyme activities is typically indirect and performed on a smaller scale, unlike protein abundance measured by high-throughput proteomics. Moreover, it is challenging to derive the activity of enzymes from proteome-wide post-translational modification (PTM) profiling data. To address this challenge, we introduce enzyme activity inference with structural equation modeling under the JUMP umbrella (JUMPsem), a novel computational tool designed to infer enzyme activity using PTM profiling data. We demonstrate that the JUMPsem program enables estimating kinase activities using phosphoproteome data, ubiq
