Mass Dynamics 1.0: A streamlined, web-based environment for analyzing, sharing and integrating Label-Free Data

ABSTRACT: Label Free Quantification (LFQ) of shotgun proteomics data is a popular and robust method for the characterization of relative protein abundance between samples. Many analytical pipelines exist for the automation of this analysis and some tools exist for the subsequent representation and inspection of the results of these pipelines. Mass Dynamics 1.0 (MD 1.0) is a web-based analysis environment that can analyse and visualize LFQ data produced by software such as MaxQuant. Unlike other tools, MD 1.0 utilizes cloud-based architecture to enable researchers to store their data, enabling researchers to not only automatically process and visualize their LFQ data but annotate and share their findings with collaborators and, if chosen, to easily publish results to the community. With a view toward increased reproducibility and standardisation in proteomics data analysis and streamlining collaboration between researchers, MD 1.0 requires minimal parameter choices and automatically generates quality control reports to verify experiment integrity. Here, we demonstrate that MD 1.0 provides reliable results for protein expression quantification, emulating Perseus on benchmark datasets over a wide dynamic range.

Project description:Malaria is a deadly disease caused by Apicomplexan parasites of the Plasmodium genus. Several species of the Plasmodium genus are known to be infectious to human, of which P. falciparum is the deadliest. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins coordinate cell signalling and hence, regulate many biological processes in P. falciparum homeostasis and host infection, of which the most highly studied is phosphorylation. Phosphosites on proteins can be identified by tandem mass spectrometry (MS) performed on enriched samples (phosphoproteomics), followed by downstream computational analyses. We have performed a large-scale meta-analysis of 11 publicly available phosphoproteomics datasets, to build a comprehensive atlas of phosphosites in the P. falciparum proteome, using robust pipelines aimed at strict control of false identifications. We identified a total of 28,495 phosphorylated sites on P. falciparum proteins at 5% false localisation rate (FLR) and, of those, 18,100 at 1% FLR. We identified significant sequence motifs, likely indicative of different groups of kinases, responsible for different groups of phosphosites. Conservation analysis identified clusters of phosphoproteins that are highly conserved, and others that are evolving faster within the Plasmodium genus, and implicated in different pathways. We also explored the structural context of phosphosites, identifying a strong enrichment for phosphosites on fast evolving (low conservation) intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) of proteins. In other species, IDRs have been shown to have an important role in modulating protein-protein interactions, particularly in signalling, and thus warranting further study for their roles in host-pathogen interactions. All data has made available via UniProt, PRIDE and PeptideAtlas, with visualisation interfaces for exploring phosphosites in the context of other data on Plasmodium proteins.We have re-analysed publicly available mass spectrometry (MS) data sets enriched for phosphopeptides from Asian rice (Oryza sativa). In total we have identified, 15522 phosphosites on Serine, Threonine and Tyrosine residues on rice proteins. The data has been loaded into UniProtKB, enabling researchers to visualise the sites alongside other stored data on rice proteins, including structural models from AlphaFold2, and into PeptideAtlas, enabling visualisation of the source evidence for each site, including scores and source mass spectra. We identified sequence motifs for phosphosites, and link motifs to enrichment of different biological processes, indicating different downstream regulation caused by different kinase groups. We cross-referenced phosphosites against single amino acid variation (SAAV) data sourced from the rice 3000 genomes data, to identify SAAVs within or proximal to phosphosites that could cause loss of a particular site in a given rice variety. The data was further clustered to identify groups of sites with similar patterns across rice family groups, allowing us to identify sites highly conserved in Japonica, but mostly absent in, for example, Aus type rice varieties - known to have different responses to drought. These resources can assist rice researchers to discover alleles with significantly different functional effects across rice varieties.

Project description:BACKGROUND & AIMS: Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), including Crohnâ??s disease and ulcerative colitis, are chronic illnesses that are thought to develop secondary to a pathologic interaction between the immune system and the intestinal microflora that is manifested by the gut mucosa. IBD has been recognized as disorders in which developmental epigenetic changes, such as DNA methylation, may play an important pathogenic role. DNA methylation can be influenced in mammals by dietary exposures. A methyl-donor diet has been specifically found to be effective in inducing permanent changes in DNA methylation at certain genomic loci in murine models. Importantly, the methyl-donor substances utilized are routinely incorporated into prenatal micronutrient supplements for humans. In this study we addressed whether maternal exposure to a methyl-donor diet induces prolonged alterations in offspring colitis susceptibility and whether it leads to stable colonic mucosal epigenetic changes and gene expression alterations in mice. We also assessed whether the maternal methyl-donor diet induced persistent changes in the colonic microbiota in the offspring. METHODS: Colonic mucosa from offspring of mothers fed a methyl donor diet (MD) or control diet was interrogated by methylation specific amplification microarray (MSAM) at postnatal day 30 (P30) and P90 to screen for changes in DNA methylation, with bisulfite pyrosequencing validation. Transcriptomic changes in the same tissue were analyzed by microarray expression profiling and real time RT-PCR. The mucosal microbiome was studied by high throughput, detailed pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA. RESULTS: MD exposure during prenatal and early development lead to a significant increase in colitis susceptibility that persisted even after 69 days of diet reversal (P90). MD exposure also influenced DNA methylation and expression at select genomic loci. Overlap between DNA methylation and gene expression changes was confirmed at Ppara, a gene previously implicated in murine colitis. Metagenomic analyses failed to reveal consistent bacteriomic differences between the P30 and P90 age groups. CONCLUSIONS: Prenatal and early developmental exposure to MD induces increased colitis susceptibility, mucosal epigenomic, and transcriptomic changes that do not appear to associate with consistent microbiomic alterations. These findings underscore the importance of maternal nutrition on offspring colitis susceptibility in mammals and implicate the importance of the associated mucosal epigenetic modification. Our results bare potentially significant public health relevance as well. 4 independent MD versus control comparisons at P90 were performed as follows. RNA (0.4ug) samples were processed and labelled with Cy3 and Cy5 (Quick Amp labelling kit, two color, Agilent technologies) and 4 independent P90 MD to P90 control comparisons were done on Agilent technologies 4x44k whole genomic expression microarray G2519F, Amadid:014868)
