Isoform-specific signaling of Akt, a major hub and prominent therapeutic target, remained poorly defined until recently. Subcellular distribution, tissue-specific expression, substrate specificity, posttranslational modifications are believed to underlie isoform-specific Akt. The studies reported here show inhibition Akt2 activity under physiologically relevant conditions oxidation created by PDGF-induced reactive oxygen species. Combined MS functional assays identified Cys124 located in the...
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) play key roles in the regulation of biological functions proteins. Although some progress has been made identifying several PTMs using existing approaches involving a combination affinity-based enrichment and mass spectrometric analysis, comprehensive identification remains challenging problem proteomics because dynamic complexities vivo their low abundance. We describe here strategy for rapid, efficient, occurring processes vivo. It involves...
Redox-active cysteine, a highly reactive sulfhydryl, is one of the major targets ROS. Formation disulfide bonds and other oxidative derivatives cysteine including sulfenic, sulfinic, sulfonic acids, regulates biological function various proteins. We identified novel low-abundant modifications in cellular GAPDH purified on 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) by employing selectively excluded mass screening analysis for nano ultraperformance liquid...
Abstract The prognostic and therapeutic relevance of molecular subtypes for the most aggressive isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 ( IDH ) wild-type glioblastoma (GBM) is currently limited due to high heterogeneity tumors that impedes patient stratification. Here, we describe a distinct binary classification GBM derived from quantitative proteomic analysis 39 GBMs as well mutant low-grade glioma controls. Specifically, cluster 1 (GPC1) exhibit Warburg-like features, neural stem-cell markers,...
Identifying the sites of disulfide bonds in a protein is essential for thorough understanding protein's tertiary and quaternary structures its biological functions. Disulfide linked peptides are usually identified indirectly by labeling free sulfhydryl groups with alkylating agents, followed chemical reduction mass spectral comparison or detecting expected masses on scan level. However, these approaches determination become ambiguous when highly bridged modified. For accurate identification...
Various forms of protein (proteoforms) are generated by genetic variations, alternative splicing, translation initiation, co- or post-translational modification and proteolysis. Different proteoforms in part discovered characterizing their N-terminal sequences. Here, we introduce an N-terminal-peptide-enrichment method, Nrich. Filter-aided negative selection formed the basis for use two N-blocking reagents endoproteases this method. We identified 6,525 acetylated (or partially acetylated)...
Proteogenomics is a promising approach for various tasks ranging from gene annotation to cancer research. Databases proteogenomic searches are often constructed by adding peptide sequences inferred genomic or transcriptomic evidence reference protein sequences. Such inflation of databases has potential identifying novel peptides. However, it also raises concerns on sensitive and reliable identification. Spurious peptides included in target may result underestimated false discovery rate...
Automatic transliteration problem is to transcribe foreign words in one's own alphabet. Machine generated can be useful various applications such as indexing an information retrieval system and pronunciation synthesis a text-to-speech system. In this paper we present model for statistical English-to-Korean that generates candidates with probability. The designed utilize sources by extending conventional Markov window. Also, efficient accurate method alignment syllabification of units...
The assembly of the β-barrel proteins present in outer membrane (OM) Gram-negative bacteria is poorly characterized. After translocation across inner membrane, unfolded are escorted periplasm by chaperones that reside within this compartment. Two partially redundant chaperones, SurA and Skp, considered to transport bulk mass proteins. We found periplasmic disulfide isomerase DsbC cooperates with thiol oxidase DsbA folding essential protein LptD. LptD inserts lipopolysaccharides OM. It also...
Identification of post-translational modifications (PTMs) is important to understanding the biological functions proteins. MS/MS a useful tool identify PTMs. Most existing search tools are restricted take only few types PTMs as input. Here we describe new algorithm, called MOD(i) (pronounced "mod eye"), that rapidly searches for all known at once without limiting multitude modified sites in peptide. introduces notion tag chain, combination structure made from multiple sequence tags,...
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is histologically classified into adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and squamous carcinoma (LSCC). However, some tumors are ambiguous other pathophysiological features or microenvironmental factors may be more prominent. Here we report integrative multiomics analyses using data for 229 patients from a Korean NSCLC cohort 462 previous studies. Histological examination reveals five molecular subtypes, one of which subtype with PI3K-Akt pathway upregulation, showing high...
MOD i ( http://modi.uos.ac.kr/modi/ ) is a powerful and convenient web service that facilitates the interpretation of tandem mass spectra for identifying post-translational modifications (PTMs) in peptide. It it can interpret spectrum even when hundreds modification types are considered number potential PTMs peptide large, contrast to most methods currently available limit PTM sites being used analysis. For example, using , one consider analysis both entire list published on unimod webpage...
A large proportion of MS/MS spectral analyses do not result in significant matches because their quality is too poor to produce meaningful identification. Throughput peptide identification can be greatly improved, if one filter out, advance, spectra that would lead wrong We introduce here an innovative approach assess utilizing a new feature called Xrea, based on cumulative intensity normalization.
In proteogenomic analysis, construction of a compact, customized database from mRNA-seq data and sensitive search both reference databases are essential to accurately determine protein abundances structural variations at the level. However, these tasks have not been systematically explored, but rather performed in an ad-hoc fashion. Here, we present effective method for constructing compact containing comprehensive sequences sample-specific variants--single nucleotide variants,...
