Abstract
Obesity is a socially significant disease that is characterized by a disproportionate accumulation of fat. It is also associated with chronic inflammation, cancer, diabetes, and other comorbidities. Investigating biomarkers and pathological processes linked to obesity is especially vital for young individuals, given their increased potential for lifestyle modifications. By comparing the genetic, proteomic, and metabolomic profiles of individuals categorized as underweight, normal, overweight, and obese, we aimed to determine which omics layer most accurately reflects the phenotypic changes in an organism that result from obesity. We profiled blood plasma samples by employing three omics methodologies. The untargeted GC×GC-MS metabolomics approach identified 313 metabolites. To augment the metabolomic dataset, we integrated a label-free HPLC-MS/MS proteomics method, leading to the identification of 708 proteins. The genomic layer encompassed the genotyping of 647,250 SNPs. Utilizing omics data, we trained sparse Partial Least Squares models to predict body mass index. Molecular features exhibiting frequently non-zero coefficients were selected as potential biomarkers, and we further explored enriched biological pathways. Proteomics was the most effective in single-omics analyses, with a median absolute error (MAE) of 5.44 ± 0.31 kg/m2, incorporating an average of 24 proteins per model. Metabolomics showed slightly lower performance (MAE = 6.06 ± 0.33 kg/m2), followed by genomics (MAE = 6.20 ± 0.34 kg/m2). As expected, multiomic models demonstrated better accuracy, particularly the combination of proteomics and metabolomics (MAE = 4.77 ± 0.33 kg/m2), while including genomics data did not enhance the results. This manuscript is the first multiomics study of obesity in a gender-balanced cohort of young adults profiled by genomic, proteomic, and metabolomic methods. The comprehensive approach provides novel insights into the molecular mechanisms of obesity, opening avenues for more targeted interventions.

Exploiting Multi-Omics Profiling and Systems Biology to Investigate Functions of TOMM34. BIOLOGY 2023; 12:biology12020198.

Abstract
Although modern biology is now in the post-genomic era with vastly increased access to high-quality data, the set of human genes with a known function remains far from complete. This is especially true for hundreds of mitochondria-associated genes, which are under-characterized and lack clear functional annotation. However, with the advent of multi-omics profiling methods coupled with systems biology algorithms, the cellular role of many such genes can be elucidated. Here, we report genes and pathways associated with TOMM34, Translocase of Outer Mitochondrial Membrane, which plays role in the mitochondrial protein import as a part of cytosolic complex together with Hsp70/Hsp90 and is upregulated in various cancers. We identified genes, proteins, and metabolites altered in TOMM34-/- HepG2 cells. To our knowledge, this is the first attempt to study the functional capacity of TOMM34 using a multi-omics strategy. We demonstrate that TOMM34 affects various processes including oxidative phosphorylation, citric acid cycle, metabolism of purine, and several amino acids. Besides the analysis of already known pathways, we utilized de novo network enrichment algorithm to extract novel perturbed subnetworks, thus obtaining evidence that TOMM34 potentially plays role in several other cellular processes, including NOTCH-, MAPK-, and STAT3-signaling. Collectively, our findings provide new insights into TOMM34's cellular functions.

Does Proteomic Mirror Reflect Clinical Characteristics of Obesity? J Pers Med 2021; 11:jpm11020064.

Abstract
Obesity is a frightening chronic disease, which has tripled since 1975. It is not expected to slow down staying one of the leading cases of preventable death and resulting in an increased clinical and economic burden. Poor lifestyle choices and excessive intake of “cheap calories” are major contributors to obesity, triggering type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and other comorbidities. Understanding the molecular mechanisms responsible for development of obesity is essential as it might result in the introducing of anti-obesity targets and early-stage obesity biomarkers, allowing the distinction between metabolic syndromes. The complex nature of this disease, coupled with the phenomenon of metabolically healthy obesity, inspired us to perform data-centric, hypothesis-generating pilot research, aimed to find correlations between parameters of classic clinical blood tests and proteomic profiles of 104 lean and obese subjects. As the result, we assembled patterns of proteins, which presence or absence allows predicting the weight of the patient fairly well. We believe that such proteomic patterns with high prediction power should facilitate the translation of potential candidates into biomarkers of clinical use for early-stage stratification of obesity therapy.

Abstract
Despite tremendous efforts in genomics, transcriptomics, and proteomics communities, there is still no comprehensive data about the exact number of protein-coding genes, translated proteoforms, and their function. In addition, by now, we lack functional annotation for 1193 genes, where expression was confirmed at the proteomic level (uPE1 proteins). We re-analyzed results of AP-MS experiments from the BioPlex 2.0 database to predict functions of uPE1 proteins and their splice forms. By building a protein-protein interaction network for 12 ths. identified proteins encoded by 11 ths. genes, we were able to predict Gene Ontology categories for a total of 387 uPE1 genes. We predicted different functions for canonical and alternatively spliced forms for four uPE1 genes. In total, functional differences were revealed for 62 proteoforms encoded by 31 genes. Based on these results, it can be carefully concluded that the dynamics and versatility of the interactome is ensured by changing the dominant splice form. Overall, we propose that analysis of large-scale AP-MS experiments performed for various cell lines and under various conditions is a key to understanding the full potential of genes role in cellular processes.

Is It Possible to Find Needles in a Haystack? Meta-Analysis of 1000+ MS/MS Files Provided by the Russian Proteomic Consortium for Mining Missing Proteins. Proteomes 2020; 8:proteomes8020012.

Abstract
Despite direct or indirect efforts of the proteomic community, the fraction of blind spots on the protein map is still significant. Almost 11% of human genes encode missing proteins; the existence of which proteins is still in doubt. Apparently, proteomics has reached a stage when more attention and curiosity need to be exerted in the identification of every novel protein in order to expand the unusual types of biomaterials and/or conditions. It seems that we have exhausted the current conventional approaches to the discovery of missing proteins and may need to investigate alternatives. Here, we present an approach to deciphering missing proteins based on the use of non-standard methodological solutions and encompassing diverse MS/MS data, obtained for rare types of biological samples by members of the Russian Proteomic community in the last five years. These data were re-analyzed in a uniform manner by three search engines, which are part of the SearchGUI package. The study resulted in the identification of two missing and five uncertain proteins detected with two peptides. Moreover, 149 proteins were detected with a single proteotypic peptide. Finally, we analyzed the gene expression levels to suggest feasible targets for further validation of missing and uncertain protein observations, which will fully meet the requirements of the international consortium. The MS data are available on the ProteomeXchange platform (PXD014300).

Abstract
Human genome contains ca. 20,000 protein-coding genes that could be translated into millions of unique protein species (proteoforms). Proteoforms coded by a single gene often have different functions, which implies different protein partners. By interacting with each other, proteoforms create a network reflecting the dynamics of cellular processes in an organism. Perturbations of protein-protein interactions change the network topology, which often triggers pathological processes. Studying proteoforms is a relatively new research area in proteomics, and this is why there are comparatively few experimental studies on the interaction of proteoforms. Bioinformatics tools can facilitate such studies by providing valuable complementary information to the experimental data and, in particular, expanding the possibilities of the studies of proteoform interactions.
