Lysosomal damage proteomics in HeLa cells

Version 1

Lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP) is an underlying feature of diverse conditions including neurodegeneration. Cells respond by extensive ubiquitylation of membrane-associated proteins for clearance of the organelle through lysophagy that is facilitated by the ubiquitin-directed AAA-ATPase VCP/p97. Here, we assessed the ubiquitylated proteome upon acute LMP and uncovered a large diversity of targets and lysophagy regulators. They include calponin-2 (CNN2) that, along with the Arp2/3 complex, ...

For diGly proteomics: HeLa cells were cultured in lysine- and arginine-free DMEM supplemented with dialyzed FBS, 2 mM L-glutamine, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, penicillin/streptomycin and light (K0) lysine (38 μg/mL) and arginine (66 μg/ml). Medium and heavy media were the same except the light lysine was replaced with K4 and K8-lysine, respectively. Medium and heavy labeled cells were treated for 1 h with 250 µM LLOMe while light labeled were treated for 1 h with vehicle alone (EtOH). Light and heavy ...
