ProTargetMiner: A proteome signature library of anticancer molecules for functional discovery
2018
We present a publicly available, expandable proteome signature library of anticancer molecules in A549 adenocarcinoma cells. Based on 287 proteomes affected by 56 drugs, the main dataset contains 7,328 proteins and 1,307,859 refined protein-drug pairs. By employing the specificity concept in partial least square modeling, deconvolution of drug targets and mechanistic proteins is achieved for most compounds, including some kinase inhibitors. We built the first protein co-regulation database that takes into account both protein expression and degradation. A surprising number of strong anti-correlations is found, underscoring the importance of protein repression in cell regulation. Our analysis uncovered a group of proteins with extremely steady expression which are likely essential for core cellular functions. These findings bring about deeper understanding of cell mechanics. Extension of the dataset to novel compounds will facilitate drug design. The introduced specificity concept and modeling scheme are beneficial in other analysis types as well.
