Abstract

The invention discloses 95 novel phosphorylation sites identified in signal transduction proteins and pathways downstream of the T-cell receptor, and provides phosphorylation-site specific antibodies and heavy-isotope labeled peptides (AQUA peptides) for the selective detection and quantification of these phosphorylated sites/proteins, as well as methods of using the reagents for such purpose. Among the phosphorylation sites identified are sites occurring in the following protein types: Actin Binding proteins, Adaptor/Scaffold proteins, Adhesion proteins, Calcium-binding proteins, Cell Cycle Regulation or Channel proteins, Chaperones, Cofactor proteins, Cytoskeletal proteins, DNA Binding proteins, G protein or GTPase Activating proteins, Ligases, Lipid Kinases and Binding proteins, Oxidoreductases, Protein Kinases, Protein Phosphatases, Receptor proteins, RNA Binding proteins, Transcription Factor/Initiation Complex proteins, Transcription Coactivator/Corepressor proteins, Translation Initiation Complex proteins, Ubitquitin Conjugating System proteins, and Vesicle proteins.
