项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Identification, quantification, and isolation of low abundance proteins from complex mixtures is, at best, a difficult task. This is especially the case for proteins carrying a post-translational modification (PTM) that affects their half-life or regulatory properties. Examples of such PTMs include phosphorylation, glycosylation (especially O-GlcNAcylation), and ubiquitylation. In many instances, one PTM can abrogate or enhance other PTMs on the same protein providing exquisite mechanisms for control of the protein's activity. "Fishing" a protein with one particular PTM out of the pool of possible modifie proteins becomes nearly impossible without selective tools. A further complication in the case of ubiquitylation is the presence of multiple types of Ub- Ub linkages in polyubiquitin chains. Ubiquitin (Ub) is attached, via isopeptide bonds, to lysine residues in the target protein. These Ub-moieties can then serve as substrates for the conjugation of additional Ubs, again through the formation of isopeptide bonds between the C- terminus of one Ub and any of seven (7) lysines in the target Ub. The general consensus in the field is that chains with different linkages convey different meanings to the cell and hence, determine the ultimate fate of the protein, be it degradation, translocation, phosphorylation, etc. The precise information encoded in different chain linkages is largely unknown due to the lack of specific reagents that recognize different linkages. The goal of this proposal is to develop tools that allow the selective identification, quantification, and isolation of proteins modified by polyubiquitin chains containing different linkages. This will be accomplished using information encoded in the human genome that allows the cell to discriminate between different linkages, i.e. Ub-binding domains (UbDs). In Phase I, we probed protein microarrays covering ~40% of the human proteome in order to identify novel UbDs exhibiting at least, partial selectivity. In Phase II, we will use these UbDs to construct higher avidity reagents capable of linkage-specific discrimination. Both ubiquitylation and de-ubiquitylation have been linked to cancer, inflammation and neurological diseases; hence, the tools developed in this grant will have a major impact on our ability to dissect these disease processes.

描述（由申请人提供）：从复杂混合物中对低丰度蛋白的识别，定量和隔离充其量是一项艰巨的任务。尤其是这样用于携带翻译后修饰（PTM）的蛋白质，影响其半衰期或调节性能。这种PTM的例子包括磷酸化，糖基化（尤其是O-Glcnacylation）和泛素化。在许多情况下，一个PTM可以在同一蛋白质上消除或增强其他PTM，从而提供精致的机制来控制蛋白质活性。如果没有选择性工具，“钓鱼”可能是一种特定的PTM蛋白质，几乎是不可能的。在泛素化的情况下，另一个并发症是在多泛素链中存在多种类型的UB-UB链接。泛素（UB）通过异肽键连接到靶蛋白中的赖氨酸残基。然后，这些UB-Moieties可以通过在一个UB的C末端和目标UB中的七（7）个赖氨酸中的任何一个中形成异肽键，作为额外瑞银结合的底物。该领域的一般共识是具有不同联系的链条向细胞传达不同的含义，因此，确定蛋白质的最终命运，无论是降解，易位，磷酸化等。不同链条链接中编码的精确信息在很大程度上是未知的，这在很大程度上是未知的。该提案的目的是开发工具，以允许选择性识别，定量和隔离蛋白质，该蛋白质通过包含不同链接的多泛素链修饰的蛋白质。这将使用人类基因组中编码的信息来完成，该信息允许细胞区分不同的链接，即UB结合域（UBD）。在第一阶段，我们探测了覆盖人类蛋白质组约40％的蛋白微阵列，以鉴定至少具有部分选择性的新型UBD。在第二阶段，我们将使用这些UBD来构建能够特定于连锁歧视的较高的亲戚试剂。泛素化和去泛素化都与癌症，炎症和神经系统疾病有关。因此，这笔赠款中开发的工具将对我们剖析这些疾病过程的能力产生重大影响。
