Phosphoproteomics of EGF stimulated MCF7 cells

ABSTRACT: Phosphoproteomic analysis of EGF stimulated MCF7 cells. This dataset is the basis for the development of modeling of signaling networks. A fundamental challenge in biology is to delineate the signaling pathways that govern cellular responses to genetic and environmental cues. Phosphoproteomics is an emerging technology that provides key data on activity levels of proteins under conditions of interest. However, the interpretation of these data is hampered by the lack of methods that can translate site-specific information into global maps of active proteins and signaling networks. To meet this challenge, we propose PHOTON, a method for integrating phosphorylation data with protein-protein interaction networks to identify active proteins and pathways and pinpoint functional phosphosites. We demonstrate the utility of PHOTON by applying it to interpret existing and novel phosphoproteomic datasets related to EGF and insulin responses. PHOTON substantially outperforms the widely-used cutoff approach, providing highly reproducible predictions that are more in line with current biological knowledge

Project description:Cysteine is a rare and conserved amino acid involved in most cellular functions. The thiol group of cysteine can be subjected to diverse oxidative modifications that regulate most physio-pathological states. Here, a Cysteine-specific Phosphonate Adaptable Tag (CysPAT) was synthesized to selectively label cysteine-containing peptides (Cys peptides) followed by enrichment with titanium dioxide (TiO2) and mass spectrometric analysis. The CysPAT strategy was developed using a synthetic peptide, a standard protein and subsequently the strategy was applied to Hela cells lysate, achieving high specificity and enrichment efficiency. In particular,From 500µg of Hela cell lysate, the method led to the identification of 9229 unique Cys peptides starting from 500µg of Hela cell lysate . the CysPAT labelled Cys peptides showed increased hydrophobicity. Finally, the method was further developed to simultaneously enrich Cys peptides and phosphorylated peptidesThe method was further developed to simultaneously enrich Cys peptides and phosphorylated peptides from SILAC labelled Hela cells subjected to 5 min epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulation. In total, of 22972 unique reversibly modified Cys peptides (3886 proteins) and 18549 unique phosphopeptides (2257 proteins) were simultaneously identified by Orbitrap Fusion. Significant regulation was observed in both phosphorylation and reversible Cys modification of proteins interacted with EGF receptor (EGFR)-binding proteins and proteins involved in EGFR signaling pathway. EGF stimulation can activate the phosphorylation of EGFR and downstream signaling molecules, such as mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK1 and MAPK3), meanwhile, it also leads to the activation of multiple protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) by reduction of the catalytic Cys site in the conserved putative phosphatase HC(X)5R motif, Llater the activated PTPs would dephosphorylate and inactivate the molecules activated by EGF stimulation. Overall, the CysPAT strategy is a promising tool for studying redox proteomics and the simultaneous enrichment strategy offers an excellent solution for characterization of cross-talk between phosphorylation and redox induced cysteine modifications.
