Proteome-wide remodeling of protein location and function by stress.

ABSTRACT: Protein location and function can change dynamically depending on many factors, including environmental stress, disease state, age, developmental stage, and cell type. Here, we describe an integrative computational framework, called the conditional function predictor (CoFP; http://nbm.ajou.ac.kr/cofp/), for predicting changes in subcellular location and function on a proteome-wide scale. The essence of the CoFP approach is to cross-reference general knowledge about a protein and its known network of physical interactions, which typically pool measurements from diverse environments, against gene expression profiles that have been measured under specific conditions of interest. Using CoFP, we predict condition-specific subcellular locations, biological processes, and molecular functions of t
