Abstract
Endogenous peptides and their parent proteins are important nutritional components with diverse biological functions. The objective of this study was to analyze and compare endogenous peptides and parent proteins found in human colostrum (HC) and human mature milk (HM) using a 4D label-free technique. In total, 5162 and 940 endogenous peptides derived from 258 parent proteins were identified in human milk by database (DB) search and de novo, respectively. Among these peptides, 2446 differentially expressed endogenous peptides with various bioactivities were identified. The Gene Ontology analysis unveiled the cellular components, biological processes, and molecular functions associated with these parent proteins. Metabolic pathway analysis suggested that neutrophil extracellular trap formation had the greatest significance with 24 parent proteins. These findings will offer a fresh perspective on the development of infant formula powder, highlighting the potential for incorporating these changes to enhance its nutritional composition and benefits.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation is a ubiquitous post-translational modification that regulates a plethora of intracellular processes, making its analysis crucial for understanding intracellular dynamics. The commonly used methods, such as radioactive labeling and gel electrophoresis, do not provide information about subcellular localization. Immunofluorescence using phospho-specific antibodies and subsequent analysis via microscopy allows researchers to assess subcellular localization, but it typically lacks validation whether the observed fluorescent signal is phosphorylation specific. In this study, an on-slide dephosphorylation assay coupled with immunofluorescence staining using phospho-specific antibodies on fixed samples is proposed as a fast and simple approach to validate phosphorylated proteins in their native subcellular context. The assay was validated using antibodies against two different phosphorylated target proteins, connexin 43 phosphorylated at serine 373, and phosphorylated substrates of protein kinase A, with a dramatic reduction in the signal upon dephosphorylation. The proposed approach provides a convenient way to validate phosphorylated proteins without the need for additional sample preparation steps, reducing the time and effort required for analysis, while minimizing the risk of protein loss or alteration.

Abstract
Phosphorylation is one of the most important post-translational modifications of proteins, but due to the low abundance of phosphopeptides, enrichment is an essential step before mass spectrometric analysis. Although there are a number of enrichment methods developed targeting different forms of proteins phosphorylations, there are few reports on specific recognition and capture of single phosphopeptide. Herein, based on the advantages of dual affinity of TiO2 and urea to a phosphate group and molecular imprinting towards the peptide sequence, the precise recognition of intact phosphorylated peptides was successfully achieved. The same peptide sequence with different phosphorylation forms (c.a. Ser, Thr and Tyr) were used as templates for proof-of-principle study, and the imprinted particles were successfully synthesized, characterized, and have the capacity to specifically recognize the targeted unique phosphorylation excluding even its isoforms. In addition, the produced molecularly imprinted nanoparticles have numerous important advantages, including strong affinity, high specificity toward single phosphopeptides, tolerance to interferences, fast binding kinetics, substantial binding capacity, excellent stability and reusability, making them an ideal sorbent for specific enrichment of unique phosphopeptides. Finally, different phosphorylation forms were specifically enriched from both standard peptides' mixture and casein/milk digests.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) was the third leading cause of global death in 2019, causing a huge economic burden to society. Therefore, it is urgent to identify specific phenotypes of COPD patients through early detection, and to promptly treat exacerbations. The field of phosphoproteomics has been a massive advancement, compelled by the developments in mass spectrometry, enrichment strategies, algorithms, and tools. Modern mass spectrometry-based phosphoproteomics allows understanding of disease pathobiology, biomarker discovery, and predicting new therapeutic modalities. AREAS COVERED In this article, we present an overview of phosphoproteomic research and strategies for enrichment and fractionation of phosphopeptides, identification of phosphorylation sites, chromatographic separation and mass spectrometry detection strategies, and the potential application of phosphorylated proteomic analysis in the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of COPD disease. EXPERT OPINION The role of phosphoproteomics in COPD is critical for understanding disease pathobiology, identifying potential biomarkers, and predicting new therapeutic approaches. However, the complexity of COPD requires the more comprehensive understanding that can be achieved through integrated multi-omics studies. Phosphoproteomics, as a part of these multi-omics approaches, can provide valuable insights into the underlying mechanisms of COPD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cow's milk allergy is one of the most reported food allergies in Europe. To help patients suffering from food allergies it is important to be able to detect milk in different foods. An analytical method that is gaining interest in the field of allergen detection is Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography-tandem Mass Spectrometry, where the analyte is a target peptide. When these peptide biomarkers are selected the effect of food processing should be taken into account to allow a robust detection method. OBJECTIVE This works aims at identifying such processing stable peptide markers for milk for the Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography-tandem Mass Spectrometry based detection of food allergens in different food products. METHODS Milk-incurred food materials that underwent several processing techniques were produced. This was followed by establishing tryptic peptide profiles from each matrix using Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography-High Resolution Mass Spectrometry . RESULT A careful comparison of peptide profiles/intensities and the use of specific exclusion criteria resulted in the selection of 8 peptide biomarkers suitable for application in Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography-tandem Mass Spectrometry based milk detection methods. One of these markers is a α-lactalbumin specific peptide, which has been determined to be stable in different incurred materials for the first time. CONCLUSION To our knowledge, this is the first systematic and experimentally based approach for the selection of suitable milk peptide biomarkers robust towards multiple, often applied food processing techniques for milk. Ensuring the exact knowledge of the food processing circumstances by starting from well-defined raw material and using fully controlled settings to produce incurred test material allowed the construction of a peptide database with robust markers. These robust markers can be used for the development of a robust detection method for milk in different food matrices.

Abstract
Post-translational modification of proteins is involved in protein function and higher-order structure. Among such modification, phosphorylation is an important intracellular signal transduction pathway. Many studies on phosphorylated protein analysis using liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS) have been developed. However, there are few reports on the analysis of highly phosphorylated proteins because of their handling difficulty. Hence, we developed an analytical method that converts multiple phosphate groups contained in the peptides into perfluoroalkyl groups for selective analysis using fluorous affinity. Here, tryptic digested β-casein fragment peptides [RELEELNVPGEIVE(pSer)L(pSer)(pSer)(pSer)EESITR and FQ(pSer)EEQQQTEDELQDK] were used as model phosphorylated peptides. 1H,1H,2H,2H-Perfluorooctanethiol (PFOT) and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanethiol (TFET) were used as derivatization reagents for mono-phosphorylated peptides and multi-phosphorylated peptides, respectively, to derivatize via β-elimination/Michael addition. The derivatives were analyzed by LC-ESI-MS. A fluorous LC column is typically used to selectively retain the fluorous-derivatized peptides, which are expected to be separated from contaminants and non-phosphorylated peptides. When this method was applied to β-casein, TFET- and PFOT-derivatized peptides were strongly retained in the fluorous LC column and clearly separated from non-phosphorylated peptides on the chromatogram. Therefore, the developed method enables quantification of mono- and multi-phosphorylated peptides and is suitable for application in proteomics.

Abstract
Epitope molecularly imprinted polymers (EMIPs) are novel imprinted materials using short characteristic peptides as templates rather than entire proteins. To be specific, the amino acid sequence of the template peptide is the same as an exposed N- or C-terminus of a target protein, or its amino acid composition and sequence replicate a similar conformational arrangement as the same amino acid residues on the surface of the target protein. EMIPs have a good application prospect in protein research. Herein, we focus on classification of epitope imprinting techniques, methods of epitope immobilization on matrix materials including boronate affinity immobilization, covalent bonding immobilization, physical adsorption immobilization and metal ion chelation immobilization, and application of EMIPs in peptides, proteins, target imaging and target therapy fields. Finally, the main problems and future development are summarized.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Quantitative proteomics is an invaluable tool in biomedicine for the massive comparative analysis of protein component of complex biological samples. In the last two decades, this technique has been used to describe proteins potentially involved in the pathophysiological mechanisms of preeclampsia as well as to identify protein biomarkers that could be used with diagnostic/prognostic purposes in pre-eclampsia. RESULTS We have done a systematic review of all proteomics-based papers describing differentially expressed proteins in this disease. Searching Pubmed with the terms pre-eclampsia and proteomics, restricted to the Title/Abstract and to MeSH fields, and following manual curation of the original list, retrieved 69 original articles corresponding to the 2004-2020 period. We have only considered those results based on quantitative, unbiased proteomics studies conducted in a controlled manner on a cohort of control and pre-eclamptic individuals. The sources of biological material used were serum/plasma (n = 32), placenta (n = 23), urine (n = 9), cerebrospinal fluid (n = 2), amniotic fluid (n = 2) and decidual tissue (n = 1). Overall results were filtered based on two complementary criteria. First, we have only accounted all those proteins described in at least two (urine), three (placenta) and four (serum/plasma) independent studies. Secondly, we considered the consistency of the quantitative data, that is, inter-study agreement in the protein abundance control/pre-eclamptic ratio. The total number of differential proteins in serum/plasma (n = 559), placenta (n = 912), urine (n = 132) and other sources of biological material (n = 26), reached 1631 proteins. Data were highly complementary among studies, resulting from differences on biological sources, sampling strategies, patient stratification, quantitative proteomic analysis methods and statistical data analysis. Therefore, stringent filtering was applied to end up with a cluster of 18, 29 and 16 proteins consistently regulated in pre-eclampsia in placenta, serum/plasma and urine, respectively. The systematic collection, standardization and evaluation of the results, using diverse filtering criteria, provided a panel of 63 proteins whose levels are consistently modified in the context of pre-eclampsia.

Abstract
The reversible interaction between an affinity ligand and a complementary receptor has been widely explored in purification systems for several biomolecules. The development of tailored affinity ligands highly specific toward particular target biomolecules is one of the options in affinity purification systems. However, both genetic and chemical modifications in proteins and peptides widen the application of affinity ligand-tag receptors pairs toward universal capture and purification strategies. In particular, this chapter will focus on two case studies highly relevant for biotechnology and biomedical areas, namely the affinity tags and receptors employed on the production of recombinant fusion proteins, and the chemical modification of phosphate groups on proteins and peptides and the subsequent specific capture and enrichment, a mandatory step before further proteomic analysis.

Abstract
Influenza viruses continue evolving and have the ability to cause a global pandemic, so it is very important to elucidate its pathogenesis and find new treatment methods. In recent years, proteomics has made important contributions to describing the dynamic interaction between influenza viruses and their hosts, especially in posttranslational regulation of a variety of key biological processes. Protein posttranslational modifications (PTMs) increase the diversity of functionality of the organismal proteome and affect almost all aspects of pathogen biology, primarily by regulating the structure, function, and localization of the modified proteins. Considerable technical achievements in mass spectrometry-based proteomics have been made in a large number of proteome-wide surveys of PTMs in many different organisms. Herein we specifically focus on the proteomic studies regarding a variety of PTMs that occur in both the influenza viruses, mainly influenza A viruses (IAVs), and their hosts, including phosphorylation, ubiquitination and ubiquitin-like modification, glycosylation, methylation, acetylation, and some types of acylation. Integration of these data sets provides a unique scenery of the global regulation and interplay of different PTMs during the interaction between IAVs and their hosts. Various techniques used to globally profiling these PTMs, mostly MS-based approaches, are discussed regarding their increasing roles in mechanical regulation of interaction between influenza viruses and their hosts.

Abstract
Separation of phosphoproteins plays an important role for identification of biomarkers in life science. In this work, bismuth titanate supported, iron-chelated thermoresponsive polymer brushes were prepared for selective separation of phosphoproteins. The iron-chelated thermoresponsive polymer brushes were synthesized by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide and glycidyl methacrylate, followed by a ring opening reaction of epoxy group, and chelation of the obtained cis-diols with Fe3+ ions. The composite material was characterized to determine the size and thickness, the content of the organic polymer and the metal loading. The bismuth titanate supported, iron-chelated thermoresponsive polymer brushes showed selective binding for phosphoproteins in the presence of abundant interfering proteins, and a high binding capacity for phosphoproteins by virtue of the metal affinity between the metal ions on the polymer brushes and the phosphate groups in the phosphoproteins (664 mg β-Casein per g sorbent). The thermoresponsive property of the polymer brushes made it possible to adjust phosphoprotein binding by changing temperature. Finally, separation of phosphoproteins from a complex biological sample (i.e. milk) was demonstrated using the nanosheet-supported thermoresponsive polymer brushes.

Pérez-Mejías G, Velázquez-Cruz A, Guerra-Castellano A, Baños-Jaime B, Díaz-Quintana A, González-Arzola K, Ángel De la Rosa M, Díaz-Moreno I. Exploring protein phosphorylation by combining computational approaches and biochemical methods. Comput Struct Biotechnol J 2020; 18:1852-1863. [PMID: 32728408 PMCID: PMC7369424 DOI: 10.1016/j.csbj.2020.06.043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2020] [Revised: 06/29/2020] [Accepted: 06/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Post-translational modifications of proteins expand their functional diversity, regulating the response of cells to a variety of stimuli. Among these modifications, phosphorylation is the most ubiquitous and plays a prominent role in cell signaling. The addition of a phosphate often affects the function of a protein by altering its structure and dynamics. However, these alterations are often difficult to study and the functional and structural implications remain unresolved. New approaches are emerging to overcome common obstacles related to the production and manipulation of these samples. Here, we summarize the available methods for phosphoprotein purification and phosphomimetic engineering, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of each. We propose a general workflow for protein phosphorylation analysis combining computational and biochemical approaches, building on recent advances that enable user-friendly and easy-to-access Molecular Dynamics simulations. We hope this innovative workflow will inform the best experimental approach to explore such post-translational modifications. We have applied this workflow to two different human protein models: the hemeprotein cytochrome c and the RNA binding protein HuR. Our results illustrate the usefulness of Molecular Dynamics as a decision-making tool to design the most appropriate phosphomimetic variant.

Abstract
To identify protein-protein interactions and phosphorylated amino acid sites in eukaryotic mRNA translation, replicate TAP-MudPIT and control experiments are performed targeting Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes previously implicated in eukaryotic mRNA translation by their genetic and/or functional roles in translation initiation, elongation, termination, or interactions with ribosomal complexes. Replicate tandem affinity purifications of each targeted yeast TAP-tagged mRNA translation protein coupled with multidimensional liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry analysis are used to identify and quantify copurifying proteins. To improve sensitivity and minimize spurious, nonspecific interactions, a novel cross-validation approach is employed to identify the most statistically significant protein-protein interactions. Using experimental and computational strategies discussed herein, the previously described protein composition of the canonical eukaryotic mRNA translation initiation, elongation, and termination complexes is calculated. In addition, statistically significant unpublished protein interactions and phosphorylation sites for S. cerevisiae's mRNA translation proteins and complexes are identified.

Abstract
Collagen is the critical organic component of bone matrix, which is the template for bone biomineralization. Phosphorylation modification of collagen plays an important role in the process of biomineralization in vivo, but its mechanism on in vitro biomimetic mineralization of bone matrix remains unclear at the molecular level. Sodium tripolyphosphate is used to phosphorylate collagen in this study and new phosphate groups appear on collagen fibrils after phosphorylation modification. The chelating amount of calcium is improved linearly with increasing the phosphorylation degree of collagen fibrils, which demonstrates that the introduced phosphate groups serve as new nucleation sites and participate in the formation of apatite minerals inside the collagen fibers. Stabilized nanosized amorphous calcium phosphate by polyacrylic acid can also permeate into collagen fibers and further transform into another layer of hydroxyapatite minerals. Both layers of apatite minerals eventually induce the formation of hierarchical intrafibrillar mineralization structure within the phosphorylated collagen fibers. The present research enriches the previous biomineralization mechanism of bone matrix, provides a facile strategy for biomimetic mineralization of collagen, and offers the basis for future investigation of the advanced bone substitute materials.

Abstract
Phosphorylation is an essential post-translational modification for regulating protein function and cellular signal transduction. Mass spectrometry (MS) combined with isobaric tandem mass tags (TMTs) has become a powerful platform for simultaneous, large-scale phospho-proteome site identification and quantitation. To improve the accuracy of isobaric tag-based quantitation in complex proteomic samples, MS3-based acquisition methods such as Synchronous Precursor Selection (SPS) have been used. However, the method suffers from lower peptide identification rates when applied to enriched phosphopeptide samples compared with unmodified samples due to differences in phosphopeptide fragmentation patterns during tandem MS. We developed and optimized two new acquisition methods for analysis of TMT-labeled multiplexed phosphoproteome samples, which resulted in more phosphopeptide identifications with less ratio distortion when compared with previous methods. We also applied these improved methods to a large-scale study of phosphorylation levels in A549 cell lines treated with insulin or insulin growth factor 1 (IGF-1). Overall, 3378 protein groups and 12 465 phosphopeptides were identified, of which 10 436 were quantified across 10 samples without prefractionation. The accurate measurement enabled us to map to numerous signaling pathways including mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, ErbB), and insulin signaling pathways.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation, one of the most important protein post-translational modifications, is involved in various biological processes, and the identification of phosphorylation peptides (phosphopeptides) and their corresponding phosphorylation sites (phosphosites) will facilitate the understanding of the molecular mechanism and function of phosphorylation. Mass spectrometry (MS) provides a high-throughput technology that enables the identification of large numbers of phosphosites. PhoPepMass is designed to assist human phosphopeptide identification from MS data based on a specific database of phophopeptide masses and a multivariate hypergeometric matching algorithm. It contains 244,915 phosphosites from several public sources. Moreover, the accurate masses of peptides and fragments with phosphosites were calculated. It is the first database that provides a systematic resource for the query of phosphosites on peptides and their corresponding masses. This allows researchers to search certain proteins of which phosphosites have been reported, to browse detailed phosphopeptide and fragment information, to match masses from MS analyses with defined threshold to the corresponding phosphopeptide, and to compare proprietary phosphopeptide discovery results with results from previous studies. Additionally, a database search software is created and a "two-stage search strategy" is suggested to identify phosphopeptides from tandem mass spectra of proteomics data. We expect PhoPepMass to be a useful tool and a source of reference for proteomics researchers. PhoPepMass is available at https://www.scbit.org/phopepmass/index.html.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A key process in cell regulation is protein phosphorylation, which is catalyzed by protein kinases and phosphatases. However, phosphoproteomics studies are difficult because of the complexity of protein phosphorylation and the number of phosphorylation sites. METHODS We describe an efficient approach analyzing phosphopeptides in single, separated protein by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. In this method, a titanium oxide (TiO2)-packed NuTip is used as a phosphopeptide trap, together with displacers as lactic acid in the loading buffer to increase the efficiency of the interaction between TiO2 and phosphorylated peptides. RESULTS The results were obtained from the comparison of mass spectra of proteolytic peptides of proteins with a matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) instrument. CONCLUSIONS This method has been applied to identifying phosphoproteins involved in the symbiosis Rhizobium etli-Phaseolus vulgaris.

Abstract
Initiation of cotton fiber from ovule epidermal cells determines the ultimate number of fibers per cotton ovule, making it one of the restriction factors of cotton fiber yield. Previous comparative proteomics studies have collectively revealed 162 important differentially accumulated proteins (DAPs) in cotton fiber-initiation process, however, whether and how post-translational modifications, especially phosphorylation modification, regulate the expression and function of the DAPs are still unclear. Here we reported the successful identification of 17 phosphopeptides from 16 phosphoproteins out of the 162 DAPs using the integrated bioinformatics analyses of peptide mass fingerprinting data and targeted MS/MS identification method. In-depth analyses indicated that 15 of the 17 phosphorylation sites were novel phosphorylation sites first identified in plants, whereas 6 of the 16 phosphoproteins were found to be the phosphorylated isoforms of 6 proteins. The phosphorylation-regulated dynamic protein network derived from this study not only expanded our understanding of the cotton fiber-initiation process, but also provided a valuable resource for future functional studies of the phosphoproteins.

Abstract
Many important signaling and regulatory proteins are expressed at low abundance and are difficult to measure in single cells. We report a molecular imaging approach to quantitate protein levels by digitized, discrete counting of nanoparticle-tagged proteins. Digitized protein counting provides ultrasensitive molecular detection of proteins in single cells that surpasses conventional methods of quantitating total diffuse fluorescence, and offers a substantial improvement in protein quantitation. We implement this digitized proteomic approach in an integrated imaging platform, the single cell-quantum dot platform (SC-QDP), to execute sensitive single cell phosphoquantitation in response to multiple drug treatment conditions and using limited primary patient material. The SC-QDP: 1) identified pAKT and pERK phospho-heterogeneity and insensitivity in individual leukemia cells treated with a multi-drug panel of FDA-approved kinase inhibitors, and 2) revealed subpopulations of drug-insensitive CD34+ stem cells with high pCRKL and pSTAT5 signaling in chronic myeloid leukemia patient blood samples. This ultrasensitive digitized protein detection approach is valuable for uncovering subtle but important differences in signaling, drug insensitivity, and other key cellular processes amongst single cells.

Abstract
Reversible phosphorylation is one of the most important post-translational modifications in mammalian cells. Because this molecular switch is an important mechanism that diversifies and regulates proteins in cellular processes, knowledge about the extent and quantity of phosphorylation is very important to understand the complex cellular interplay. Although phosphoproteomics strategies are applied worldwide, they mainly include only molecular mass spectrometry (like MALDI or ESI)-based experiments. Although identification and relative quantification of phosphopeptides is straightforward with these techniques, absolute quantification is more complex and usually requires for specific isotopically phosphopeptide standards. However, the use of elemental mass spectrometry, and in particular inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), in phosphoproteomics-based experiments, allow one to absolutely quantify phosphopeptides. Here, these phosphoproteomic applications with ICP-MS as elemental detector are reviewed. Pioneering work and recent developments in the field are both described. Additionally, the advantage of the parallel use of molecular and elemental mass spectrometry is stressed.

Abstract
Phosphorylation is one of the most important post-translational modifications in proteins. Their essential roles in the regulation of cellular processes and alteration of protein-protein interaction networks have been actively studied. However, phosphorylated proteins are present at low abundance in cells, and ionization of the modified peptides is often suppressed by the more abundant species in mass spectrometry. Effective enrichment techniques are needed to remove the unmodified peptides and concentrate the phosphorylated ones before their identification and quantification. Herein, we prepared ZrO2 nanofibers by electrospinning, a straightforward and easy fabrication technique, and applied them to enrich phosphorylated peptides and proteins. The fibers showed good size homogeneity and porosity and could specifically bind to the phosphorylated peptides and proteins, allowing their separation from the unmodified analogues when present in either simple protein digests or highly complex cell lysates. The enrichment performance was superior to that of the commercially available nanoparticles. Moreover, modifying the solution pH could lead to selective adsorption of proteins with different pI values, suggesting the fibers' potential applicability in charge-based protein fractionation. Our results support that the electrospun ZrO2 nanofibers can serve as a versatile tool for protein analysis with great ease in preparation and handling.

Abstract
Although genomics has delivered major advances in cancer prognostics, treatment and diagnostics, it still only provides a static image of the situation. To study more dynamic molecular entities, proteomics has been introduced into the cancer research field more than a decade ago. Currently, however, the impact of clinical proteomics on patient management and clinical decision-making is low and the implementations of scientific results in the clinic appear to be scarce. The search for cancer-related biomarkers with proteomics however, has major potential to improve risk assessment, early detection, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment selection and monitoring. In this review, we provide an overview of the transition of oncoproteomics towards translational oncology. We describe which lessons are learned from currently approved protein biomarkers and previous proteomic studies, what the pitfalls and challenges are in clinical proteomics applications, and how proteomic research can be successfully translated into medical practice.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation plays a key role in regulating nearly all intracellular biological events. However, poorly developed phospho-specific antibodies and low phosphoprotein abundance make it difficult to study phosphoproteins. Cellular protein phosphorylation data have been obtained using phosphoproteomic approaches, but the detection of low-abundance or fast-cycling phosphorylation sites remains a challenge. Enrichment of phosphoproteins together with phosphopeptides may greatly enhance the spectrum of low-abundance but biologically important phosphoproteins. Previously, we used 14-3-3ζ to selectively enrich for HeLa cell lysate phosphoproteins. However, because 14-3-3 does not isolate phosphoproteins lacking the 14-3-3-binding motif, we looked for other domains that could complementarily enrich for phosphoproteins. We here assessed and characterized the phosphoprotein binding domains Pin1-WW, CHEK2-FHA, and DLG1-GK. Using a strategy based on affinity chromatography, phosphoproteins were collected from the lysates of HeLa cells treated with phosphatase inhibitor or cAMP activator. We identified different subsets of phosphoproteins associated with WW or FHA after calyculin A, okadaic acid, or forskolin treatment. Our Kinase-Oriented Substrate Screening (KiOSS) method, which used phosphoprotein-binding domains, showed that WW and FHA are applicable and useful for the identification of novel phospho-substrates for kinases and can therefore be used as biological filters for comprehensive phosphoproteome analysis.

Abstract
The reversible interaction between an affinity ligand and a complementary receptor has been widely explored in purification systems for several biomolecules. The development of tailored affinity ligands highly specific towards particular target biomolecules is one of the options in affinity purification systems. However, both genetic and chemical modifications on proteins and peptides widen the application of affinity ligand-tag receptor pairs towards universal capture and purification strategies. In particular, this chapter will focus on two case studies highly relevant for biotechnology and biomedical areas, namely, the affinity tags and receptors employed on the production of recombinant fusion proteins and the chemical modification of phosphate groups on proteins and peptides and the subsequent specific capture and enrichment, a mandatory step before further proteomic analysis.

Abstract
Abscisic acid (ABA) is one of the major phytohormones and regulates various processes in the plant life cycle, for example, seed development and abiotic/biotic stress responses. Recent studies have made significant progress in elucidating ABA signaling and established a simple ABA signaling model consisting of three core components: PYR/PYL/RCAR receptors, 2C-type protein phosphatases, and SnRK2 protein kinases. This model highlights the importance of protein phosphorylation mediated by SnRK2, but the downstream substrates of SnRK2 remain to be determined to complete the model. Previous studies have identified several SnRK2 substrates involving transcription factors and ion channels. Recently, SnRK2 substrates have been further surveyed by a phosphoproteomic approach, giving new insights on the SnRK2 downstream pathway. Other protein kinases, e.g., Ca(2+)-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), have been identified as ABA signaling factors. Some evidence suggests that the SnRK2 pathway partially interacts with CDPK or MAPK pathways. In this chapter, recent advances in ABA signaling study are summarized, primarily focusing on two major protein kinases, SnRK2 and MAPK. Challenges for further study of the ABA-dependent protein phosphorylation network are also discussed.

Abstract
A highly selective and convenient method for the synthesis of pyrophosphopeptides in solution is reported. The remarkable compatibility with functional groups (alcohol, thiol, amine, carboxylic acid) in the peptide substrates suggests that the intrinsic nucleophilicity of the phosphoserine residue is much higher than previously appreciated. Because the methodology operates in polar solvents, including water, a broad range of pyrophosphopeptides can be accessed. We envision these peptides will find widespread applications in the development of mass spectrometry and antibody-based detection methods for pyrophosphoproteins.

Abstract
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules bind peptides derived from the intracellular degradation of endogenous proteins and present them to cytotoxic T lymphocytes, allowing the immune system to detect transformed or virally infected cells. It is known that HLA class I-associated peptides may harbor posttranslational modifications. In particular, phosphorylated ligands have raised much interest as potential targets for cancer immunotherapy. By combining affinity purification with high-resolution mass spectrometry, we identified more than 2000 unique ligands bound to HLA-B40. Sequence analysis revealed two major anchor motifs: aspartic or glutamic acid at peptide position 2 (P2) and methionine, phenylalanine, or aliphatic residues at the C terminus. The use of immobilized metal ion and TiO2 affinity chromatography allowed the characterization of 85 phosphorylated ligands. We further confirmed every sequence belonging to this subset by comparing its experimental MS2 spectrum with that obtained upon fragmentation of the corresponding synthetic peptide. Remarkably, three phospholigands lacked a canonical anchor residue at P2, containing phosphoserine instead. Binding assays showed that these peptides bound to HLA-B40 with high affinity. Together, our data demonstrate that the peptidome of a given HLA allotype can be broadened by the presentation of peptides with posttranslational modifications at major anchor positions. We suggest that ligands with phosphorylated residues at P2 might be optimal targets for T-cell-based cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry (MS) based analyses have received intense research interest in a series of rapidly developing disciplines. Although current MS techniques have enjoyed great successes, several key challenges still remain in practical applications, especially for the detection of biomolecules in biological systems. The use of nanomaterials in MS based analysis provides a promising approach due to their unique physical and chemical properties. In this review, nanomaterials with different compositions and nanostructures employed in MS applications are summarised and classified by their functions. Such an integrated and wide reaching review will provide a comprehensive handbook to researchers with various backgrounds working in this exciting interdisciplinary area.

Abstract
With mitochondrion garnering more attention for its inextricable involvement in pathophysiological conditions, it seems imperative to understand the means by which the molecular pathways harbored in this organelle are regulated. Protein phosphorylation has been considered a central event in cellular signaling and, more recently, in the modulation of mitochondrial activity. Efforts have been made to understand the molecular mechanisms by which protein phosphorylation regulates mitochondrial signaling. With the advances in mass-spectrometry-based proteomics, there is a substantial hope and expectation in the increased knowledge of protein phosphorylation profile and its mode of regulation. On the basis of phosphorylation profiles, attempts have been made to disclose the kinases involved and how they control the molecular processes in mitochondria and, consequently, the cellular outcomes. Still, few studies have focused on mitochondrial phosphoproteome profiling, particularly in diseases. The present study reviews current data on protein phosphorylation profiling in mitochondria, the potential kinases involved and how pathophysiological conditions modulate the mitochondrial phosphoproteome. To integrate data from distinct research papers, we performed network analysis, with bioinformatic tools like Cytoscape, String, and PANTHER taking into consideration variables such as tissue specificity, biological processes, molecular functions, and pathophysiological conditions. For instance, data retrieved from these analyses evidence some homology in the mitochondrial phosphoproteome among liver and heart, with proteins from transport and oxidative phosphorylation clusters particularly susceptible to phosphorylation. A distinct profile was noticed for adipocytes, with proteins form metabolic processes, namely, triglycerides metabolism, as the main targets of phosphorylation. Regarding disease conditions, more phosphorylated proteins were observed in diabetics with some distinct phosphoproteins identified in type 2 prediabetic states and early type 2 diabetes mellitus. Heart-failure-related phosphorylated proteins are in much lower amount and are mainly involved in transport and metabolism. Nevertheless, technical considerations related to mitochondria isolation and protein separation should be considered in data comparison among different proteomic studies. Data from the present review will certainly open new perspectives of protein phosphorylation in mitochondria and will help to envisage future studies targeting the underlying regulatory mechanisms.

Abstract
Selective enrichment of phosphopeptides prior to their analysis by mass spectrometry (MS) is vital for identifying protein phosphorylation sites involved in cellular regulation. This study describes modification of porous nylon substrates with TiO2 nanoparticles to create membranes that rapidly enrich phosphopeptides. Membranes with a 22-mm diameter bind 540 nmol of phosphoangiotensin and recover 70% of the phosphopeptides in mixtures with a 15-fold excess of nonphosphorylated proteins. Recovery is 90% for a pure phosphopeptide. Insertion of small membrane disks into HPLC fittings allows rapid enrichment from 5 mL of 1 fmol/μL phosphoprotein digests and concentration into small-volume (tens of microliters) eluates. The combination of membrane enrichment with tandem mass spectrometry reveals seven phosphorylation sites from in vivo phosphorylated tau (p-tau) protein, which is associated with Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
The flowerlike multifunctional affinity microspheres prepared by a facile solvothermal synthesis and subsequent calcination process consist of magnetic cores and hierarchical meso-/macroporous TiO2 shells. The hierarchical porous structure of the flowerlike affinity microspheres is constructed by the macroporous shell from the stacked mesoporous nanopetals which are assembled by small crystallites. The affinity microspheres have a relatively large specific surface area of 50.45 m(2) g(-1) and superparamagnetism with a saturation magnetization (Ms) value of 30.1 emu g(-1). We further demonstrate that they can be applied for rapid and effective purification of phosphoproteins, in virtue of their selective affinity, porous structure, and strong magnetism. In addition, the affinity microspheres can also be used for enrichment of phosphopeptides, and the selectivity is greatly improved due to the increase of mass transport and prevention of the possible "shadow effect" resulting from the smaller and deeper pores by taking advantage of the unique porous structure. Overall, this work will be highly beneficial for future applications in the isolation and identification of phosphorylated biomolecules.

Abstract
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE)-based proteomics approach was applied to extensively explore the molecular basis of plant development and environmental adaptation. These proteomics analyses revealed thousands of differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) closely related to different biological processes. However, little attention has been paid to how peptide mass fingerprinting (PMF) data generated by the approach can be directly utilized for the determination of protein phosphorylation. Here, we used the software tool FindMod to predict the peptides that might carry the phosphorylation modification by examining their PMF data for mass differences between the empirical and theoretical peptides and then identified phosphorylation sites using MALDI TOF/TOF according to predicted peptide data from these DEP spots in the 2-D gels. As a result, a total of 48 phosphorylation sites of 40 DEPs were successfully identified among 235 known DEPs previously revealed in the 2-D gels of elongating cotton fiber cells. The 40 phosphorylated DEPs, including important enzymes such as enolase, transketolase and UDP-L-rhamnose synthase, are presumed to participate in the functional regulation of numerous metabolic pathways, suggesting the reverse phosphorylation of these proteins might play important roles in elongating cotton fibers. The results also indicated that some different isoforms of the identical DEP revealed in our 2-DE-based proteomics analysis could be annotated by phosphorylation events. Taken together, as the first report of large-scale identification of phosphorylation sites in elongating cotton fiber cells, our study provides not only an excellent example of directly identifying phosphorylation sites from known DEPs on 2-D gels but also provides a valuable resource for future functional studies of phosphorylated proteins in this field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mass spectrometry-based protein identification is a very challenging task. The main identification approaches include de novo sequencing and database searching. Both approaches have shortcomings, so an integrative approach has been developed. The integrative approach firstly infers partial peptide sequences, known as tags, directly from tandem spectra through de novo sequencing, and then puts these sequences into a database search to see if a close peptide match can be found. However the current implementation of this integrative approach has several limitations. Firstly, simplistic de novo sequencing is applied and only very short sequence tags are used. Secondly, most integrative methods apply an algorithm similar to BLAST to search for exact sequence matches and do not accommodate sequence errors well. Thirdly, by applying these methods the integrated de novo sequencing makes a limited contribution to the scoring model which is still largely based on database searching. RESULTS We have developed a new integrative protein identification method which can integrate de novo sequencing more efficiently into database searching. Evaluated on large real datasets, our method outperforms popular identification methods.

Abstract
It has become appreciated over the last several years that protein phosphorylation within the cardiac mitochondrial matrix and respiratory complexes is extensive. Given the importance of oxidative phosphorylation and the balance of energy metabolism in the heart, the potential regulatory effect of these classical signaling events on mitochondrial function is of interest. However, the functional impact of protein phosphorylation and the kinase/phosphatase system responsible for it are relatively unknown. Exceptions include the well-characterized pyruvate dehydrogenase and branched chain α-ketoacid dehydrogenase regulatory system. The first task of this review is to update the current status of protein phosphorylation detection primarily in the matrix and evaluate evidence linking these events with enzymatic function or protein processing. To manage the scope of this effort, we have focused on the pathways involved in energy metabolism. The high sensitivity of modern methods of detecting protein phosphorylation and the low specificity of many kinases suggests that detection of protein phosphorylation sites without information on the mole fraction of phosphorylation is difficult to interpret, especially in metabolic enzymes, and is likely irrelevant to function. However, several systems including protein translocation, adenine nucleotide translocase, cytochrome c, and complex IV protein phosphorylation have been well correlated with enzymatic function along with the classical dehydrogenase systems. The second task is to review the current understanding of the kinase/phosphatase system within the matrix. Though it is clear that protein phosphorylation occurs within the matrix, based on (32)P incorporation and quantitative mass spectrometry measures, the kinase/phosphatase system responsible for this process is ill-defined. An argument is presented that remnants of the much more labile bacterial protein phosphoryl transfer system may be present in the matrix and that the evaluation of this possibility will require the application of approaches developed for bacterial cell signaling to the mitochondria.
