Project description:This article provides a detailed dataset of human tear fluid proteins. Samples were fractionated by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) gel electrophoresis resulting in 48 fractions that were spiked with an indexed retention time (iRT) peptide standard. These data are based on a data-dependent acquisition (DDA) mass spectrometric approach and can be used for example as a spectral library for tear fluid proteome analysis by data-independent acquisition (DIA). Moreover, the provided data set can be used with optimized HPLC as well as mass spectrometric settings for proteins/peptides of interest. Besides these aspects, this dataset can serve as a protein overview for gene ontology enrichment analysis as well as for modeling and benchmarking of multiple signaling pathways associated with the ocular surface in healthy or disease stages.

Project description:Cilia and flagella serve as cellular antennae that translate sensory information into cellular responses. In sperm, a single chemoattractant molecule triggers signaling events that evoke a Ca2+ response and chemotactic steering. Key components of the chemotactic signaling pathway from sperm of the sea urchin Arbacia punctulata were investigated. Shotgun proteomics employing SDS-PAGE LC-MS/MS and MudPIT provided the proteome inventory of sperm flagella.

Project description:Data on absolute molecule numbers will empower the modeling, understanding, and comparison of cellular functions and biological systems. We quantified transcriptomes and proteomes in fission yeast during cellular proliferation and quiescence. This rich resource provides the first comprehensive reference for all RNA and most protein concentrations in a eukaryote under two key physiological conditions. The integrated data set supports quantitative biology and affords unique insights into cell regulation. Although mRNAs are typically expressed in a narrow range above 1 copy/cell, most long, noncoding RNAs, except for a distinct subset, are tightly repressed below 1 copy/cell. Cell-cycle-regulated transcription tunes mRNA numbers to phase-specific requirements but can also bring about more switch-like expression. Proteins greatly exceed mRNAs in abundance and dynamic range, and concentrations are regulated to functional demands. Upon transition to quiescence, the proteome changes substantially, but, in stark contrast to mRNAs, proteins do not uniformly decrease but scale with cell volume. Proteomics data generation and processing: Extracted proteins were enzymatically digested using trypsin, the peptides were separated into 12 fractions using an OFF-GEL Fractionator (Agilent), and analyzed on an Orbitrap Velos LC-MS platform (Thermo Scientific). Peptides were quantified and identified using the Progenesis LC-MS (Nonlinear Dynamics) and Mascot software, respectively. Absolute abundance for 39 proteins was determined using spiked-in heavy reference peptides to translate the summed MS-intensities of all peptides to copies/cell for all identified proteins. The associated microarray and RNA-seq datasets are in ArrayExpress with the following accession numbers: Microarrays: E-TABM-1075, RNA-seq: E-MTAB-1154.

Project description:The Hippo Pathway is a critical signaling network that regulates organ size and cellular proliferation in metazoans. The transcriptional enhanced associate domain (TEAD) family of transcription factors serve as the receptors for the downstream effectors of the Hippo pathway, YAP and TAZ, to upregulate expression of multiple genes involved in proliferation, cell-fate determination, polarity, and survival1. Recent work revealed that TEAD proteins are palmitoylated at a conserved cysteine with the lipid tail extending into the hydrophobic core of the protein2. Mutagenic and covalent modulation of the palmitoylation site disrupts Hippo signaling2,3; however, an understanding of why TEAD proteins require this seemingly essential modification and the therapeutic implications of modulating TEAD palmitoylation has remained elusive. Here we report the identification and optimization of a potent pan-TEAD small molecule that binds the TEAD lipid pocket (LP), blocks palmitoylation, and dysregulates TEAD activity in multiple cancer cell lines. Cellular and biochemical data interrogating the mechanism of action for our compound reveal TEAD palmitoylation to function as a checkpoint that regulates TEAD homeostasis. We show that bypassing this checkpoint with a small molecule increases TEAD protein levels thereby decreasing the ability of YAP/TAZ to activate downstream target gene transcription in a dominant-negative manner. Our study demonstrates a new role for lipidation in protein signaling and establishes the TEAD LP as a bona fide therapeutic site for modulation of the Hippo Pathway.

Abstract:
The inherent complexity of cellular signaling networks and
their importance to a wide range of cellular functions
necessitates the development of modeling methods that can be
applied toward making predictions and highlighting the
appropriate experiments to test our understanding of how these
systems are designed and function. We use methods of
statistical mechanics to extract useful predictions for complex
cellular signaling networks. A key difficulty with signaling
models is that, while significant effort is being made to
experimentally measure the rate constants for individual steps
in these networks, many of the parameters required to describe
their behavior remain unknown or at best represent estimates.
To establish the usefulness of our approach, we have applied
our methods toward modeling the nerve growth factor
(NGF)-induced differentiation of neuronal cells. In particular,
we study the actions of NGF and mitogenic epidermal growth
factor (EGF) in rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells. Through a
network of intermediate signaling proteins, each of these
growth factors stimulates extracellular regulated kinase (Erk)
phosphorylation with distinct dynamical profiles. Using our
modeling approach, we are able to predict the influence of
specific signaling modules in determining the integrated
cellular response to the two growth factors. Our methods also
raise some interesting insights into the design and possible
evolution of cellular systems, highlighting an inherent
property of these systems that we call 'sloppiness.'
The figures in the paper show results from computations
performed over an ensemble of all parameter sets that fit the
available data. This file contains only the best fit parameters.
The full ensemble of parameters is available at
http://www.lassp.cornell.edu/sethna/GeneDynamics/PC12DataFiles/
(Also, the best-fit parameter set produces a curve for DN Rap1 that
is less "peakish" than the ensemble average.)
The conversion factors for EGF and NGF concentrations account
for their molecular weights and the density of cells in the culture
dish. These concentrations are saturating, so the exact values are
not critical.
Because the Erk data fit to measure only fold changes in
activity, there is no absolute scale for the y-axes. Thus the
curves from this file have different magnitudes than those
published.
To reproduce the figures from the paper:
2a) For EGF stimulation, set the initial concentration of EGF
to 100 ng/ml * 100020 (molecule/cell)/(ng/ml) = 10002000.
For NGF stimulation, set the initial concentration of NGF to
50 ng/ml * 4560 (molecule/cell)/(ng/ml) = 456000
5a) To simulate LY294002 addition, set kPI3KRas and kPI3K to
0.
5b) To simulate a dominant negative Rap1, set kRap1ToBRaf to
0.
To simulate a dominant negative Ras, set kRasToRaf1 and
kPI3KRas to 0.
Almost all the data fit with this model by the authors are
from Western blots. Given the uncertainties in antibody
effectiveness and other factors, one can't a priori derive a
conversion between the arbitrary units for a given set of data and
molecules per cell. So the authors used an adjustable "scale
factor" that converts between molecules per cell and Western blot
units.
For the EGF stimulation data in figure 2a) the scale factor
conversion is 1.414e-05 (U/mg)/(molecule/cell). For the NGF
stimulation data in figure 2a) it is 7.135e-06
(U/mg)/(molecule/cell).

Project description:Cell signaling pathways play key roles to coordinate cellular events in development. Notch signaling pathway is highly conserved across all multicellular animals and is known to co- ordinate a multitude of diverse cellular events, including proliferation, differentiation, fate specification, and cell death. Specific functions of the pathway are however highly context- dependent and are not well characterized in post-traumatic regeneration. Here, we use a small-molecule inhibitor of the pathway (DAPT) to demonstrate that Notch signaling is required for proper arm regeneration in the brittle star Ophioderma brevispina, a highly re- generative member of the phylum Echinodermata. We also employ a transcriptome-wide gene expression analysis (RNA-seq) to characterize the downstream genes controlled by the Notch pathway in the brittle star regeneration.

Project description:Examine the dose response characteristics of a set of eight artificial transcripts (IVT) when spiked into a Universal Human RNA background at different copy numbers. The experiment was designed to <br>(i) evaluate the technical reproducibility of array data generated on the Agilent Whole Human 44K array with use of a set of external RNA controls <br> (ii) employ two panels of the same external RNA controls, which differed in copy number between panels, in order to simulate normal and disease states. We employed 8 different pools which were comprised of 8 different external RNA standards in a total human reference RNA background. Each different standard was present at a different copy number within any single pool (see file: E-MEXP-2670.additional.zip). Each control was present at a different concentration in each of the 8 pools. Standard microarray analysis was performed on the data and the differences in abundance between external RNA controls determined in terms of fold change differences.
