Label-free quantitative phosphorylation analysis of human transgelin2 in Jurkat T cells reveals distinct phosphorylation patterns under PKA and PKC activation conditions

Background Transgelin2, one of cytoskeletal actin binding proteins has recently been suggested to be involved in the formation of immune synapses. Although detailed function of transgelin2 is largely unknown, interactions between transgelin2 and actin appear to be important in regulating cellular functions of transgelin2. Because protein phosphorylation can change ability to interact with other proteins, comprehensive phosphorylation analysis of transgelin2 will be helpful in understanding its functional mechanisms.
