Replisome proximal protein associations and dynamic proteomic changes at stalled replication forks
Mol Cell Proteomics. 2024 Apr 12:100767. doi: 10.1016/j.mcpro.2024.100767. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDNA replication is a fundamental cellular process that ensures the transfer of genetic information during cell division. Genome duplication takes place in S phase and requires a dynamic and highly coordinated recruitment of multiple proteins at replication forks. Various genotoxic stressors lead to fork instability and collapse, hence the need for DNA repair pathways. By identifying the multitude of protein interactions implicated in those events we can better grasp the complex and dynamic molecular mechanisms that faci...

TIMAHAC: Streamlined Tandem IMAC-HILIC Workflow for Simultaneous and High-Throughput Plant Phosphoproteomics and N-glycoproteomics
Mol Cell Proteomics. 2024 Apr 10:100762. doi: 10.1016/j.mcpro.2024.100762. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTProtein post-translational modifications (PTMs) are crucial in plant cellular processes, particularly in protein folding and signal transduction. N-glycosylation and phosphorylation are notably significant PTMs, playing essential roles in regulating plant responses to environmental stimuli. However, current sequential enrichment methods for simultaneous analysis of phosphoproteome and N-glycoproteome are labor-intensive and time-consuming, limiting their throughput. Addressing this challenge, this study introduces a nov...

Comprehensive proteomics analysis of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) biology in Pseudomonas putida KT2440: the outer membrane lipoprotein OprL is a newly identified phasin
Mol Cell Proteomics. 2024 Apr 10:100765. doi: 10.1016/j.mcpro.2024.100765. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPseudomonas putida KT2440 is an important bioplastic-producing industrial microorganism capable of synthesizing the polymeric carbon-rich storage material, polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA). PHA is sequestered in discrete PHA granules, or carbonosomes, and accumulates under conditions of stress, for example low levels of available nitrogen. The pha locus responsible for PHA metabolism encodes both anabolic and catabolic enzymes, a transcription factor, and carbonosome-localized proteins termed phasins. The functions of phasins...

Proteomics-derived biomarker panel facilitates distinguishing primary lung adenocarcinomas with intestinal or mucinous differentiation (PAIM) from lung metastatic colorectal cancer (lmCRC)
This study aimed to explore the protein biomarkers that could distinguish between PAIM and lmCRC. To uncover differences between the two diseases, we used tandem mass tagging (TMT)-based shotgun proteomics to characterize proteomes of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor samples of PAIM (n = 22) and lmCRC (n = 17).Then three machine learning algorithms, namely support vector machine (SVM), random forest and the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO), were utilized to select protein features with diagnostic significance. These candidate proteins were further validated in an independent cohort (PAIM...

Systematic investigation of the trafficking of glycoproteins on the cell surface
Mol Cell Proteomics. 2024 Apr 7:100761. doi: 10.1016/j.mcpro.2024.100761. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGlycoproteins located on the cell surface play a pivotal role in nearly every extracellular activity. N-glycosylation is one of the most common and important protein modifications in eukaryotic cells, and it often regulates protein folding and trafficking. Glycosylation of cell-surface proteins undergoes meticulous regulation by various enzymes in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi, ensuring their proper folding and trafficking to the cell surface. However, the impacts of protein N-glycosylation, N-glycan matur...
