Tyrosine phosphorylation (pTyr) plays a pivotal role in signal transduction and is commonly dysregulated cancer. As result, profiling tumor pTyr levels may reveal therapeutic insights critical to combating disease. Existing discovery targeted mass spectrometry-based methods used monitor networks involve tradeoff between broad coverage of the network, reproducibility target identification across analyses, accurate quantification. To address these limitations, we developed approach, termed...

Engineered allosteric regulation of protein activity provides significant advantages for the development robust and broadly applicable tools. However, application switches in optogenetics has been scarce suffers from critical limitations. Here, we report an optogenetic approach that utilizes engineered Light-Regulated (LightR) switch module to achieve tight spatiotemporal control enzymatic activity. Using tyrosine kinase Src as a model, demonstrate efficient identify temporally distinct...

A major contributor to poor sensitivity anti-cancer kinase inhibitor therapy is drug-induced cellular adaptation, whereby remodeling of signaling and gene regulatory networks permits a drug-tolerant phenotype. Here, we resolve the scale kinetics critical subcellular events following oncogenic inhibition preceding cell cycle re-entry, using mass spectrometry-based phosphoproteomics RNA sequencing capture molecular snapshots within first minutes, hours, days BRAF exposure in human

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are intracellular transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides and lack protein-coding information. A subclass of lncRNA known as long intergenic (lincRNAs) transcribed from genomic regions that share no overlap with annotated genes. Increasing evidence has shown some lincRNA do in fact contain open reading frames (ORFs) encoding functional short peptides the cell. Few robust methods for lincRNA-encoded peptide identification have been reported, tissue-specific...

Abstract Coordination of adaptive metabolism through cellular signaling networks and metabolic response is essential for balanced flow energy homeostasis. Post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation offer a rapid, efficient, dynamic mechanism to regulate networks. Although numerous sites have been identified on enzymes, much remains unknown about their contribution enzyme function systemic metabolism. In this study, we stratify enzymes based location with respect functional...

Abstract Dysregulation of intracellular signaling networks underpins cancer. However, a systems-level elucidation how within distinct cell subpopulations drive cancer progression in vivo has been unattainable due to technical limitations. We developed INSIGHT (INvestigating SIGnaling network specific subpopulation Heterogeneous Tissue), new platform technology combining fluorescence-activated sorting with ultra-sensitive mass spectrometry enable phosphoproteomic characterization rare and...
