Abstract

We synthesized the first multifunctionalized phosphoinositide polyphosphate derivatives featuring a photo-removable protecting group (“cage”), a photo-crosslinkable diazirine group, and a terminal alkyne group useful for click chemistry. We demonstrate that the lipid derivatives readily enter cells. After photo-crosslinking, cell fixation and fluorescent tagging via click chemistry, we determined the intracellular location of the lipid derivatives before and after uncaging of the lipids. We find that there is rapid trafficking of PI(3,4)P2 and PI(3,4,5)P3 derivatives to the plasma membrane, opening the intriguing possibility that there is active transport of these lipids involved. We employed the photo-crosslinking and click chemistry functions to analyze the proteome of PI(3,4,5)P3-binding proteins. From the latter, we validated by RNAi that the putative lipid binding proteins ATP11A and MPP6 are involved in the transport of PI(3,4,5)P3 to the plasma membrane.

Lipid probes utilized

Trifunctional PI(3,4,5)P3

Cell line analyzed

HeLa

Mass spectrometry quantification method

Peptide spectral counting (in original publication)

Label free quantification (as reported here, enabled via fresh analysis by Frank Stein, EMBL)

Additional sample preparation ?

Samples were split into membrane and cytosolic fractions and analyzed as independent mass spec samples. Additional No Probe controls were included for raw input, though not used in displaying the data on this site.

Data visualization

Volcano plots depict the relative enrichment of each protein versus non-crosslinked control (x-axis) and the statistical significance of each protein following a Student’s t-test (y-axis, -log10 transformed). Original publication reported results in terms of peptide spectral matches; here, data have been reanalyzed to compare normalized intensities of experimental (+UV)and control (-UV) samples without isobaric mass tags. Black proteins are unenriched or depleted in the presence of probe, Purple enriched candidates are defined as proteins with a false discovery rate less than 0.2 and a fold change of at least 1.5-fold, and Orange enriched hits are defined as proteins with a false discovery rate less than 0.05 and a fold change of at least 2-fold in the +UV over the -UV).

Ranked-order plots depict the relative enrichment of each protein versus non-crosslinked control (y-axis) from lowest to highest. Original publication reported results in terms of peptide spectral matches; here, data have been reanalyzed to compare normalized intensities of experimental (+UV)and control (-UV) samples without isobaric mass tags. Black proteins are unenriched or depleted in the presence of probe, Purple enriched candidates are defined as proteins with a false discovery rate less than 0.2 and a fold change of at least 1.5-fold, and Orange enriched hits are defined as proteins with a false discovery rate less than 0.05 and a fold change of at least 2-fold in the +UV over the -UV).

MA plots depict the average abundance of each protein in the crosslinked and uncrosslinked conditions (x-axis) versus the log2-transformed fold-change between the crosslinked and uncrosslinked conditions (y-axis).
