Article Abstract
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) play important roles in modulating the biological functions of proteins. Stoichiometry, which quantifies the modification percentage, is a critical factor for any given PTM. In this work, we developed a chemoproteomic strategy called "STO-MS" to systematically quantify the PTM stoichiometry in complex biological samples. This strategy employs a resolvable mass tag to differentiate proteoforms with different numbers of modifications and utilizes liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) techniques to measure PTM stoichiometry at the proteomic level. As a proof-of-concept, we successfully determined the stoichiometry of 197 proteins modified by 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), a well-characterized lipid-derived electrophile and biomarker for oxidative stress. Our work expands the toolbox for quantification of PTM stoichiometry and sheds light on understanding the biological significance of PTMs in oxidative stress.

Post-translational modifications (PTMs) regulate protein homeostasis, but how aging impacts PTMs remains unclear. Here, we used mass spectrometry to reveal changes in hundreds of protein ubiquitylation, acetylation, and phosphorylation sites in the mouse aging brain. We show that aging has a major impact on protein ubiquitylation.

Deoxyhypusination is the first rate-limiting step of the unique post-translational modification-hypusination-that is catalyzed by deoxyhypusine synthase (DHS) and deoxyhypusine hydroxylase (DOHH). This modification is essential for the activation of translation factor 5A in eukaryotes (eIF5A) and Archaea (aIF5A). This perspective focuses on the structural biology of deoxyhypusination complexes in eukaryotic and archaeal organisms.

Ribosomes are an archetypal ribonucleoprotein assembly. Due to ribosomal evolution and function, r-proteins share specific physicochemical similarities, making the riboproteome particularly suited for tailored proteome profiling methods. Moreover, the structural proteome of ribonucleoprotein assemblies reflects context-dependent functional features.
