项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Microtubules are large cellular structures that grow and shrink on the order of seconds to minutes. Chemical disruption of microtubule dynamics typically leads to death in both cycling and non-cycling cells, though the mechanisms responsible for this are not well characterized. Interestingly, microtubule drugs stimulate kinase- mediated stress signaling prior to cell death, which suggests that cells can detect and respond to microtubule disruption. I propose to address the questions surrounding this intriguing stress phenomenon. First, I would like to understand the general impact that microtubule perturbations have on cellular signaling. Given the precedent of phosphorylation stress signals in response to microtubule disruption, I propose to generate highly quantitative mass spectrometry measurements of protein phosphorylation that occurs immediately following microtubule drug treatment. Second, I want to determine whether different microtubule perturbations (e.g. stabilization and destabilization) have different effects on cellular signaling. To do this, I willuse different drugs to perturb microtubules and compare effects on protein phosphorylation. Finally, there is currently very little knowledge regarding how microtubules might directly regulate signaling, especially in response to chemical insults. I hope to elucidate mechanisms by which signaling proteins (e.g. kinases, phosphatases) are regulated by microtubule dynamics and activated in response to microtubule disruption. To this end, I will use immunofluorescence imaging, conventional transfection techniques, and statistical inference methods.

描述（由申请人提供）：微管是一种大型细胞结构，其生长和收缩时间约为几秒到几分钟。微管动力学的化学破坏通常会导致循环细胞和非循环细胞死亡，尽管造成这种情况的机制并非如此。具有象征意义的是，微管药物会刺激激酶。首先，我想了解微管扰动对细胞信号传导的一般影响。鉴于磷酸化应激信号响应微管破坏的先例，我建议对微管药物治疗后立即发生的蛋白质磷酸化进行高度定量的质谱测量。其次，我想确定是否存在不同的微管扰动。（例如稳定和不稳定）对细胞信号传导有不同的影响，为此，我将使用不同的药物来扰乱微管并比较对蛋白质磷酸化的影响。最后，目前关于微管如何直接调节信号传导（尤其是响应）的知识很少。我希望阐明信号蛋白（例如激酶、磷酸酶）受微管动力学调节并响应微管而激活的机制。为此，我将使用免疫荧光成像、常规转染技术和统计推断方法。
