The stoichiometry of protein phosphorylation at specific amino acid sites may be used to infer on the significance of the modification, and its biological function in the cell. However, detection and quantification of phosphorylation stoichiometry in tissue remain a significant challenge. Here we describe a strategy for highly sensitive, label-free quantification of protein phosphorylation stoichiometry. Method development included the analysis of synthetic peptides in order to determine constants to relate the mass spectrometry signals of cognate peptide/phosphopeptide pairs, and the detection of the cognate peptides by using high resolution Fourier Transform mass spectrometry (FTMS) and selected reaction monitoring mass spectrometry (SRM). By analyzing extracted ion currents by FTMS, the phosphorylation stoichiometries of two tyrosine residues (tyrosine-194 and tyrosine-397) in the protein tyrosine kinase Lyn were determined in transfected human HEK293T cells and two cultured human multiple myeloma strains. To achieve high sensitivity to measure phosphorylation stoichiometry in tissue, SRM methods were developed and applied for the analysis of phosphorylation stoichiometries of Lyn phospho-sites in multiple myeloma xenograft tumors. Western immuno-blotting was used to verify mass spectrometry findings. The SRM method has potential applications in analyzing clinical samples wherein protein phosphorylation stoichiometries may represent important pharmacodynamic biomarkers.

D011506 Proteins Linear POLYPEPTIDES that are synthesized on RIBOSOMES and may be further modified, crosslinked, cleaved, or assembled into complex proteins with several subunits. The specific sequence of AMINO ACIDS determines the shape the polypeptide will take, during PROTEIN FOLDING, and the function of the protein.

D005583 Fourier Analysis Analysis based on the mathematical function first formulated by Jean-Baptiste-Joseph Fourier in 1807. The function, known as the Fourier transform, describes the sinusoidal pattern of any fluctuating pattern in the physical world in terms of its amplitude and its phase. It has broad applications in biomedicine, e.g., analysis of the x-ray crystallography data pivotal in identifying the double helical nature of DNA and in analysis of other molecules, including viruses, and the modified back-projection algorithm universally used in computerized tomography imaging, etc. (From Segen, The Dictionary of Modern Medicine, 1992) Fourier Series,Fourier Transform,Analysis, Cyclic,Analysis, Fourier,Cyclic Analysis,Analyses, Cyclic,Cyclic Analyses,Series, Fourier,Transform, Fourier
