Computerized, comprehensive databases of cellular and secreted proteins from normal human embryonic lung MRC-5 fibroblasts: identification of transformation and/or proliferation sensitive proteins

Databases of protein information from human embryonal lung fibroblasts (MRC-5) have been established using computer analyzed two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. One thousand four hundred and eighty-two cellular proteins (1060 with isoelectric focusing and 422 with nonequilibrium pH gradient electrophoresis, in the first dimension) ranging in molecular mass between 8 and 234 kDa were separated and numbered. Information entered in the database (in most cases for major proteins) includes: protein name, HeLa protein catalog number, mouse protein catalog number, proteins matched in transformed human epithelial amnion cells (AMA) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), transformation and/or proliferation sensitive proteins, synthesis in quiescent cells, cell cycle regulated proteins, mitochondrial and heat shock proteins, cytoskeletal proteins and proteins whose synthesis is affected by interferons. Additional information entered for a few transformation-sensitive proteins that have been selected for future studies includes levels of synthesis and amounts in fetal human tissues. A total of four hundred and seventy-six [35S]methionine labeled polypeptides (258 isoelectric focusing; 218, nonequilibrium pH gradient electrophoresis) secreted by MRC-5 fibroblasts were separated and recorded (J. E. Celis et al., Leukemia 1987, 1, 707-717). Information entered in this database includes molecular weight and transformation sensitive proteins. These databases, as well as those of epithelial and lymphoid cell proteins (J. E. Celis et al., Leukemia 1988, 9, 561-601), represent the initial stages of a systematic effort to establish comprehensive databases of human protein information. In the long run, these databases are expected to offer a useful framework in which to focus the human genome sequencing effort.     

A two-dimensional gel protein database of noncultured total normal human epidermal keratinocytes: identification of proteins strongly up-regulated in psoriatic epidermis

A two-dimensional (2-D) gel database of proteins from noncultured total normal human epidermal keratinocytes has been established. A total of 1449 [35S]methionine labelled proteins (1112 isoelectric focusing, 337 nonequilibrium pH gradient electrophoresis) were resolved and recorded using computer assisted (PDQ-SCAN and PDQUEST software) 2-D gel electrophoresis. By matching the protein patterns of total keratinocytes and transformed human amnion cells (master database; Celis et al., Leukemia 1988, 2, 561-602) as well as by 2-D immunoblotting and microsequencing of keratinocyte proteins, it was possible to identify 72 polypeptides in the keratinocyte database. The database also includes data on polypeptides that are synthesized at a higher level by keratinocytes enriched in basal cells, and on six secreted proteins which are produced, albeit at a reduced rate, by normal keratinocytes and that are strongly up-regulated in psoriatic epidermis (Celis et al., FEBS Letters, in press).     

Comprehensive two-dimensional gel protein databases offer a global approach to the analysis of human cells: the transformed amnion cells (AMA) master database and its link to genome DNA sequence data

A total of 3430 polypeptides (2592 cellular; 838 secreted) from transformed human amnion cells (AMA) labeled with [35S]methionine were separated and recorded using computer-aided two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis. A master 2-D gel database of cellular protein information that includes both qualitative and quantitative annotations has been established. The protein numbers in this database differ from those reported in an earlier version (Celis et al. Leukemia 1988, 2,561-602) as a result of changes in the scanning hardware. The reported information includes: percentage of total radioactivity recovered from the gels (based on quantitations of polypeptides labeled with a mixture of 16 14C-amino acids), protein name (including credit to investigators that aided identification), antibody against protein, cellular localization, (nuclear, 40S hnRNP, 20S snRNP U5, proteasomes, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, Golgi, ribosomes, intermediate filaments, microfilaments and microtubules), levels in fetal human tissues, partial protein sequences (containing information on 48 human proteins microsequenced so far), cell cycle-regulated proteins, proteins sensitive to interferons alpha, beta, and gamma, heat shock proteins, annexins and phosphorylated proteins. The results presented should be considered as the initial phase of a joint effort between our laboratories to undertake a general and systematic analysis of human proteins. Using this integrated approach it will be possible to identify phenotype-specific proteins, to microsequence them and store the information in the database, to identify the corresponding genes, to search for homology with previously characterized proteins and to study the function of groups of proteins (pathways, organelles, etc.) that exhibit interesting regulatory properties. In particular, the 2-D gel protein database may become increasingly important in view of the concerted effort to map and sequence the entire human genome.     

Microsequencing of proteins recorded in human two-dimensional gel protein databases.

Sixty-six human proteins recorded in the master transformed human epithelial amnion cells (AMA) (55) and keratinocyte (11) two-dimensional gel protein databases have been microsequenced since the last publication of the AMA database (Electrophoresis 1990, 12, 989-1071). Coomassie Brilliant Blue stained protein spots cut from several (up to 40) dry gels were concentrated by elution-concentration gel electrophoresis, electroblotted onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes and in situ digested with trypsin. The eluting peptides were separated by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), collected individually and sequenced. Computer searches using the FASTA and TFASTA programs from the Genetics Computer Group indicated that 29 of the analyzed polypeptides correspond to hitherto unknown proteins.     

The master two-dimensional gel database of human AMA cell proteins: towards linking protein and genome sequence and mapping information (update 1991).

The master two-dimensional gel database of human AMA cells currently lists 3801 cellular and secreted proteins, of which 371 cellular polypeptides (306 IEF; 65 NEPHGE) were added to the master images during the last 10 months. These include: (i) very basic and acidic proteins that do not focus under normal running conditions and (ii) low-abundant proteins that can only be detected after prolonged gel exposure. Annotation categories updated in this version include "protein name", "antibody against protein", "cellular localization", and "microsequenced proteins". New entries include "human autoantigens" and "cDNAs". For convenience we have included an alphabetical list of all known proteins recorded in this database. In the long run, the main goal of this database is to link protein and DNA sequencing and mapping information (Human Genome Program) and to provide an integrated picture of the expression levels and properties of the thousands of proteins that orchestrate various cellular functions both under physiological and abnormal conditions.     

A comprehensive two-dimensional gel protein database of noncultured unfractionated normal human epidermal keratinocytes: towards an integrated approach to the study of cell proliferation, differentiation and skin diseases.

A two-dimensional (2-D) gel database of cellular proteins from noncultured, unfractionated normal human epidermal keratinocytes has been established. A total of 2651 [35S]methionine-labeled cellular proteins (1868 isoelectric focusing, 783 nonequilibrium pH gradient electrophoresis) were resolved and recorded using computer-aided 2-D gel electrophoresis. The protein numbers in this database differ from those reported in an earlier version due to changes in the scanning hardware (Celis et al., Electrophoresis 1990, 11, 242-254). Annotation categories reported include: "protein name" (listing 207 known proteins in alphabetical order), "basal cell markers", "differentiation markers", "proteins highly up-regulated in psoriatic skin", "microsequenced proteins" and "human autoantigens". For reference, we have also included 2-D gel (isoelectric focusing) patterns of cultured normal and psoriatic keratinocytes, melanocytes, fibroblasts, dermal microvascular endothelial cells, peripheral blood mononuclear cells and sweat duct cells. The keratinocyte 2-D gel protein database will be updated yearly in the November issue of Electrophoresis.     

Two-dimensional electrophoretic analysis of transformation-sensitive polypeptides during chemically, spontaneously, and oncogene-induced transformation of rat liver epithelial cells.

Recently, we described the establishment of a computerized database of rat liver epithelial (RLE) cellular polypeptides (Wirth et al., Electrophoresis, 1991, 12, 931-954). This database has now been expanded to include the analysis of cellular polypeptide alterations during chemically (aflatoxin B1; AFB), spontaneously, and oncogene (v-Ha-ras, v-raf, and v-myc/v-raf)-induced transformation of RLE cells. Two-dimensional mapping of [35S]methionine-labeled whole cell lysate, cell-free in vitro translation products and [32P]orthophosphate-labeled polypeptides revealed subsets of polypeptides specific for each transformation modality. A search of the RLE protein database indicated the specific subcellular location for the majority of these transformation-sensitive proteins. Significant alterations in the expression of the extracellular matrix protein, fibronectin, as well as tropomyosin- and intermediate filament-related polypeptides (vimentin, beta-tubulin, the cytokeratins, and actin) were observed among the various transformant cell lines. Immunoprecipitation and Western immunoblot analysis of tropomyosin expression in four individual AFB-, as well as four spontaneously induced, and each of the oncogene-transformed cell lines indicated that five major tropomyosin (Tm 1-5) isoforms were variably expressed in the various cell lines, including one polypeptide tentatively identified as Tm6. Whereas alterations in tropomyosin expression appeared to be transformation-specific, alterations in the individual intermediate filament polypeptides were related more to the differentiation state of the individual cell lines rather than to the transformation phenotype. These studies extend our earlier efforts toward the establishment of a comprehensive computerized database of RLE cellular proteins and demonstrates how such a database may serve as a useful source for studies concerning the regulation of growth and differentiation as well as transformation of RLE cells.     

The human keratinocyte two-dimensional gel protein database (update 1992): towards an integrated approach to the study of cell proliferation, differentiation and skin diseases.

The master two-dimensional gel database of human keratinocytes currently lists 2980 cellular proteins (2098 isoelectric focusing, IEF; and 882 nonequilibrium pH gradient electrophoresis, NEPHGE) many of which correspond to posttranslational modifications. About 20% of all recorded proteins have been identified (protein name, organelle components, etc.) and they are listed in alphabetical order together with their M(r), pI, cellular localization and credit to the investigator(s) that aided in the identification. Also, we have listed 145 microsequenced proteins that are recorded in this database. As an aid in localizing the polypeptides we have included blow-ups of the master images (IEF, NEPHGE) displaying all the protein numbers. In the long run, the master keratinocyte database is expected to link protein and DNA sequencing and mapping information (Human Genome Program) and to provide an integrated picture of the expression levels and properties of the thousands of proteins that orchestrate various keratinocyte functions both in health and disease.     

Several small GTP-binding proteins are strongly down-regulated in simian virus 40 (SV40) transformed human keratinocytes and may be required for the maintenance of the normal phenotype

High resolution two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis in combination with the blot overlay nucleotide binding assay was used to reveal low molecular weight GTP-binding proteins expressed by primary cultured, normal human keratinocytes. Forty one small GTP-binding proteins (30 isoelectric focusing, IEF; and 11 nonequilibrium pH gradient electrophoresis, NEPHGE) ranging in molecular weights from 18000 to 30000 and isoelectric points from 4.4 to 8.0 were detected and mapped in the master human keratinocyte database. Four GTP-binding proteins were identified by 2-D gel immunoblotting and these correspond to rap 1 and 2 and two forms of rab6. ras Proteins are most likely present in the [α³²P]GTP 2-D gel blots but their levels may be too low to be detected by immunoblotting. Quantitative changes in the relative expression levels of [α³²P]GTP-binding proteins in normal proliferating and simian virus 40 (SV40) transformed human keratinocytes (K 14) were determined by scintillation counting of the radioactive spots excised from the nitrocellulose blots. The results showed that thirteen of these proteins were not expressed in transformed K14 keratinocytes, implying that they may play a role in the maintenance of the normal cell phenotype.     

On the self-affinity of heparan sulfates from quiescent or proliferating normal 3T3 cells and from SV40-transformed cells

35S-Labelled heparan sulfates derived from the culture medium (extracellular), a trypsinate of the cells (pericellular) and the cell residue (intracellular) of quiescent normal, proliferating normal or SV40-transformed 3T3 cells were analyzed for charge heterogeneity, by ion exchange chromatography and for self-affinity, by chromatography on heparan sulfate-agarose gels. Quiescent normal cells retained most of their heparan sulphate intra- or pericellularly. The surface-exposed material was charge heterogeneous and had a strong affinity for heparan sulfate. In cultures of growing cells and transformed cells most of the heparan sulfate was found in the medium. The heparan sulfate retained on the surface or growing cells had a lower self-affinity than did the corresponding material from normal and transformed cells. Although cell surface heparan sulfates from transformed cells showed affinity for a matrix substituted with the total heparan sulfate pool, the affinity for one particular subtype was much less pronounced or non-existent.     

Assignment of human plasma polypeptides on a nondenaturing 2-D gel using MALDI-MS and PMF and comparisons with the results of intact protein mapping

Human plasma proteins were separated by 2-DE under nondenaturing conditions followed by the assignment of the CBB-stained spots using MALDI-MS and PMF, aiming to correlate the information of intact proteins with that of constituent polypeptides. A microgel system was employed to facilitate the analysis. Totally 157 spots on a nondenaturing micro-2-DE gel were numbered, the spots were excised, the proteins in the gel pieces were subjected to in-gel digestion with trypsin followed by polypeptide analysis using MALDI-MS and PMF. Two PMF algorithms, MASCOT (with Swiss-Prot database) and ProFound (with NCBInr database) were employed. A total of 153 spots out of the 157 provided significant match (p <0.05) with polypeptides in databases. Eighty spots were assigned to contain multiple (2-4) polypeptides, suggesting (i) noncovalent interaction between proteins/polypeptides, (ii) disulfide bonding of polypeptides, or (iii) overlapping of the protein locations on the gel. The results of polypeptide assignment coincided very well with the results of protein mapping previously reported, in which 33 plasma proteins were identified using blotting-immunochemical staining (Manabe, T., Takahashi, Y., Higuchi, N., Okuyama, T., Electrophoresis 1985, 6, 462-467). Further, 19 polypeptides in 25 spots were newly assigned. These results demonstrate that the techniques of MALDI-MS and PMF can be applied for analysis of proteins separated on nondenaturing 2-DE gels, providing information on their polypeptide structure. The integrated information on proteins and polypeptides would help the comprehensive understanding on the functions of complex protein systems.     

Microsequences of 145 proteins recorded in the two-dimensional gel protein database of normal human epidermal keratinocytes.

Microsequencing of proteins recovered from two-dimensional (2-D) gels is being used systematically to identify proteins in the master human keratinocyte 2-D gel database. To date, about 250 protein spots recorded in human 2-D gel databases have been microsequenced and, of these, 145 are recorded in the keratinocyte database under the entry partial amino acid sequence. Coomassie Brilliant Blue-stained protein spots cut from several (up to 40) dry gels were concentrated by elution-concentration gel electrophoresis, electroblotted onto PVDF membranes and digested in situ with trypsin. Eluting peptides were separated by reversed-phase HPLC, collected individually and sequenced. Computer search using the FASTA and TFASTA programs from Genetics Computer Group indicated that 110 of the microsequenced polypeptides shared significant similarity with proteins contained in the PIR, Mipsx or GenEMBL databases. Only 35 polypeptides corresponded to hitherto unknown proteins. Peptide sequences of all 145 proteins are listed together with their coordinates (apparent molecular weight and pI) in the keratinocyte database.     

Regulation of the Balb/c-3T3 cell cycle-effects of growth factors

The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), which is found in serum but not in plasma, has been purified to homogeneity; it stimulates replication at a concentration of 10(-10) M. Brief treatment with PDGF causes density-inhibited Balb/c-3T3 cells to become competent to synthesize DNA; pituitary fibroblast growth factor (FGF) or precipitates of calcium phosphate also induce competence. Continuous treatment with plasma allows competent, but not incompetent, cells to synthesize DNA. A critical component of plasma is somatomedin, a group of hormones with insulin-like activity; multiplication-stimulating activity (MSA) or insulin replace plasma somatomedin in promoting DNA synthesis. We have studied the molecular correlates of competence and the role of SV40 gene A products in regulating DNA synthesis. Treatment of quiescent cells with pure PDGF or FGF causes the preferential synthesis of five cytoplasmic proteins (approximate molecular weight 29,000, 35,000, 45,000, 60,000, and 72,000 detected by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions). Two of these competence-associated proteins (29,000 and 35,000 daltons) are insulin, or epidermal growth factor (EGF). PDGF, FGF, or calcium phosphate induce an ultrastructure change within the centriole of 3T3 cells; this ultrastructural modification of the centriole is detectable by immunofluorescence within 2 h or PDGF treatment. Plasma, EGF, or MSA do not modify the centriole. SV40 induces replicative DNA synthesis in growth-arrested 3T3 cells but does not cause this alteration in centriole structure. Gene A variants of SV40, including a mutant with temperature-sensitive (ts) T-antigen (ts A209), a deletion in t-antigen (dl 884), and several ts A209 strains containing t-antigen deletions were used to induce DNA synthesis in Balb/c-3T3 cells. Like wild type SV40, all strains induced DNA synthesis equally well under permissive or nonpermissive conditions. Addition of PDGF or plasma had little effect on SV40-induced DNA synthesis. Thus, the viral function that induces replicative DNA synthesis in Balb/c-3T3 cells. Like wild type SV40, all strains induced DNA synthesis equally well under permissive or nonpermissive conditions. Addition of PDGF or plasma had little effect on SV40-induced DNA synthesis. Thus, the viral function that induces replicative DNA synthesis in Balb/c-3T3 cells is not t and is not temperature sensitive. This SV40 gene function overrides the cellular requirement for hormonal growth factors. It does not induce transient centriole deciliation, a hormonally regulated event.     

Differential extraction and enrichment of human sperm surface proteins in a proteome: identification of immunocontraceptive candidates

The objective of this study was to discover previously unknown human sperm surface proteins that may be candidate contraceptive vaccinogens. To this end, methods of concentrating human sperm proteins for microsequencing by mass spectrometry were used, which increased the likelihood of identifying surface proteins. Vectorial labeling, differential extraction and two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis were employed to identify and isolate proteins accessible at the cell surface. Percoll harvested or swim-up sperm were either solubilized directly or solubilized after surface labeling with sulfo-succinimidyl-6-(biotinamido)hexanoate (sulfo-NHS-LC-biotin). Comparisons were made of proteins extracted with four lysis buffers: (i) Celis buffer containing 9.8 M urea and 2% Igepal CA-630; (ii) 1% Triton X (TX)-100; (iii) 1.7% TX-114 followed by phase partitioning; or (iv) 1 M NaCl. Blots of proteins separated by high-resolution 2-D electrophoresis were probed with avidin and antibodies to known proteins specific for three domains: the sperm surface (SAGA-1), the acrosome (SP-10), and the cytoskeleton (alpha-tubulin). Celis buffer (45 min) extracted proteins from all three major compartments. However, a 20-s extraction in Celis buffer enriched for several proteins and enabled the identification of several novel peptides by mass spectrometry. Mild extraction with TX-100 or 1 M NaCl solubilized mainly membrane and acrosomal proteins, but not cytoskeletal proteins. Comparison of biotinylated proteins extracted by each method showed that the major vectorially labeled proteins solubilized by Celis buffer were also solubilized by TX-100, TX-114, and 1 M NaCl. Extraction with TX-114 followed by phase-partitioning significantly enriched hydrophobic surface proteins and aided resolution and isolation. Eight protein spots microsequenced following all these extraction methods proved to be novel sperm molecules.     

Cyclic nucleotides and cell growth.

Growth induction in resting fibroblast cultures by serum or growth factors induces a fast, transient cGMP peak which may constitute the intracellular signal for growth. A similar cGMP peak occurs when 3T3 cells arrested at the restriction point or in G0 by starvation for certain amino acids are induced for growth by readdition of the lacking nutrients. Both 3T3 and SV3T3 cells which are arrested randomly all around the cell cycle do not exhibit major changes in cyclic nucleotides after growth induction. Determination of intracellular cAMP and cGMP levels in normal and transformed fibroblasts under different growth conditions shows that the transition between growing and resting state (G0 arrest) is accompanied and probably induced by characteristic changes in cAMP to cGMP ratios. cGMP is decreased 2-5-fold in resting as compared to growing cultures, and increased 10-20-fold in activated cultures 20 min after serum induction. No major cGMP change was observed in growing, confluent, or serum-activated cultures of transformed cells. Measurement of guanylcyclase under unphysiological conditions (2 mM Mn++) in crude and purified membranes from 3T3 and SV3T3 cultures did not show increased enzyme activity in the transformed cells. Significant differences may only show up when synchronized cells pass through the restriction point in G1 phase. As a hypothesis it is proposed that transformed cells have an activated guanylcyclase system or a relaxed cGMP-pleiotypic response mechanism at the restriction point of their cell cycle.     

Cell-cell contact and growth regulation of pinocytosis in 3T3 cells

In sub-confluent cultures of Balb/c-3T3 cells, pinocytosis rates were increased after exposure to specific growth factors (serum; platelet-derived growth factor, PDGF; epidermal growth factor, EGF). Conversely, as cells became growth-inhibited with increasing culture density, there was a corresponding decline in pinocytosis rate per cell. In order to test whether density-inhibition of pinocytosis was influenced either by the growth cycle or by cell contact independently of growth, cells were induced into a quiescent state at a range of subconfluent and confluent densities. Under such conditions, cell density did not significantly inhibit pinocytosis rate. When confluent quiescent cultures in 2.5% serum were exposed to 10% serum, the resulting round of DNA synthesis was accompanied by enhanced pinocytosis per cell, even though the cells were in contact with one another. Furthermore, in a SV40-viral transformed 3T3 cell line, both the growth fraction and the pinocytosis rate per cell remained unchanged over a wide range of culture densities. These studies indicate that density-dependent inhibition of pinocytosis in 3T3 cells appears to be secondary to growth-inhibition rather than to any direct physical effects of cell-cell contact.     

ENHANCED SUSCEPTIBILITY TO HPD-SENSITIZED PHOTOTOXICITY AND CORRELATED RESISTANCE TO TRYPSIN DETACHMENT IN SV-40 TRANSFORMED IMR-90 CELLS

Abstract— The response of a normal human cell strain, IMR-90 and a line derived from it by SV40 transformation were compared after treatment in vitro with hematoporphyrin derivative (HPD) and red light. Transformed cells were inactivated at a significantly higher rate than normal cells when assayed by clonogenic survival. Co-treatment with HPD and light also induces cellular resistance to enzymatic cleavage by trypsin; transformed cells exhibit a greater resistance than the normal cells to detachment from the growing surface. These data indicate that transformed cells may possess intrinsic characteristics that render them more sensitive than normal cells to HPD-induced phototoxicity and that the plasma membrane may be the site of differential toxicity.     

Serological comparative proteomics analysis of mitochondrial autoantibody‐negative and ‐positive primary biliary cirrhosis

Here, we investigated the pathogenesis of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) by using 2D‐DIGE to analyze serological differences between anti‐mitochondrial antibody (AMA)‐positive and ‐negative PBC patients. The study comprised 30 patients with PBC; 20 AMA‐positive and ten AMA‐negative patients matched for age, sex , and pathological stage. A screening group (four AMA‐positive and four AMA‐negative patients) was used for 2D‐DIGE. Protein spots that were differently abundant between the two groups were identified via dye intensity and MS. Nine candidate proteins were identified from these spots. Western blotting was used to verify two of the identified proteins, serum amyloid P‐component (SAP) and vitronectin (VN). VN levels were significantly higher in the sera of AMA‐negative PBC patients (p < 0.01), whereas no significant difference was found between the two groups for SAP. To our knowledge, this is the first study to use serological comparative proteomics to explore differences between AMA‐positive and ‐negative PBC patients. VN levels were higher in AMA‐negative PBC patients, and this finding could be related to the more severe bile duct destruction observed in this group.     

基于亲和色谱的肺癌细胞磷酸化蛋白质组研究及其应用

磷酸化是蛋白质翻译后修饰的重要形式之一,其异常往往会导致细胞内信号通路的紊乱和疾病的发生。固定化金属离子亲和色谱(IMAC)是磷酸化肽段的高效富集技术,在磷酸化蛋白质组研究方面应用广泛。该研究以金属钛离子(Ti⁴⁺)螯合IMAC材料(Ti⁴⁺-IMAC)为载体,进行磷酸化肽段富集。比较了10 μm Ti⁴⁺-IMAC通过振荡法和固相萃取法(SPE)富集磷酸肽的效果,发现振荡法可以富集到更多的磷酸肽;对比了两种尺寸(10 μm和30 μm)Ti⁴⁺-IMAC在磷酸化肽段富集中的差异,发现小尺寸材料富集效果更佳。进一步采用优化的策略比较了不同转移能力肺癌细胞的磷酸化蛋白质组,免标记定量蛋白质组学结果表明,优化的Ti⁴⁺-IMAC方法可以从正常的肺成纤维细胞MRC5、低转移肺癌细胞95C和高转移肺癌细胞95D中分别鉴定到510、863和1108种磷酸化蛋白质,其中317种为3组所共有。该研究共鉴定到1268种磷酸化蛋白质上的7560个磷酸化位点,其中1130个为差异磷酸化位点,文献报道显示部分异常表达的激酶与癌症转移密切相关。通过生信对比分析发现,异常表达的磷酸化蛋白质主要与细胞侵袭、迁移和死亡等细胞迁移方面的功能有关。通过优化磷酸化肽富集策略,初步阐明了磷酸化蛋白质网络的异常与肺癌转移之间的相关性,该方法有望用于肺癌进展相关的磷酸化位点、磷酸化蛋白质及其信号通路研究。
