Cancer Conformational Landscape Shapes Tumorigenesis.

ABSTRACT: During tumorigenesis, DNA mutations in protein coding sequences can alter amino acid sequences which can change the structures of proteins. While the 3D structure of mutated proteins has been studied with atomic resolution, the precise impact of somatic mutations on the 3D proteome during malignant transformation remains unknown because methods to reveal in vivo protein structures in high throughput are limited. Here, we measured the accessibility of the lysine ε-amine for chemical modification across proteomes using covalent protein painting (CPP) to indirectly determine alterations in the 3D proteome. CPP is a novel, high-throughput quantitative mass spectrometric method that surveyed a total of 8052 lysine sites across the 60 cell lines of the well-studied anticancer cell line pa
