A chemical and phosphoproteomic characterization of dasatinib action in lung cancer.

ABSTRACT: We describe a strategy for comprehending signaling pathways that are active in lung cancer cells and that are targeted by dasatinib using chemical proteomics to identify direct interacting proteins combined with immunoaffinity purification of tyrosine-phosphorylated peptides corresponding to activated tyrosine kinases. We identified nearly 40 different kinase targets of dasatinib. These include SRC-family kinase (SFK) members (LYN, SRC, FYN, LCK and YES), nonreceptor tyrosine kinases (FRK, BRK and ACK) and receptor tyrosine kinases (Ephrin receptors, DDR1 and EGFR). Using quantitative phosphoproteomics, we identified peptides corresponding to autophosphorylation sites of these tyrosine kinases that are inhibited in a concentration-dependent manner by dasatinib.
