Abstract
Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of dopamine (DA) and other catecholamines, and its dysfunction leads to DA deficiency and parkinsonisms. Inhibition by catecholamines and reactivation by S40 phosphorylation are key regulatory mechanisms of TH activity and conformational stability. We used Cryo-EM to determine the structures of full-length human TH without and with DA, and the structure of S40 phosphorylated TH, complemented with biophysical and biochemical characterizations and molecular dynamics simulations. TH presents a tetrameric structure with dimerized regulatory domains that are separated 15 Å from the catalytic domains. Upon DA binding, a 20-residue α-helix in the flexible N-terminal tail of the regulatory domain is fixed in the active site, blocking it, while S40-phosphorylation forces its egress. The structures reveal the molecular basis of the inhibitory and stabilizing effects of DA and its counteraction by S40-phosphorylation, key regulatory mechanisms for homeostasis of DA and TH. Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of the catecholamine neurotransmitters and hormones dopamine (DA), adrenaline and noradrenaline. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structures of full-length human TH in the apo form and bound with DA, as well as the structure of Ser40 phosphorylated TH, and discuss the inhibitory and stabilizing effects of DA on TH and its counteraction by Ser40-phosphorylation.

Abstract
Abstract
Sézary syndrome (SS) is a leukemic form of cutaneous mature T-cell lymphoma characterized by circulating malignant CD4 T lymphocytes (Sezary cells). Patients with SS have a poor prognosis and current treatment options show high rates of relapse, morbidity or mortality. Thus, there is an unmet need for an efficient and safe treatment. Sézary cells have unique clonal potentially targetable epitopes, including their TCR, and TCR- and neoantigen-derived HLA-restricted peptides.
Our general aim is to design a patient-tailored two-pronged strategy against SS. The specific aims are 1) to target SS clonal TCR B cell epitopes using mAb and/or CAR T cells, 2) to target SS HLA-restricted T-cell epitopes using TCR peptide- and/or neoantigen-specific human T cells, and 3) to validate efficacy in vitro and in mouse models.
For the generation of mAb, apheresis-purified SS cells or SS TCR CDR3beta peptides were used for immunizations, and screening was done on SS vs non-SS CD4 cells as defined by flow cytometry using CD26 and/or PD-1. For in vitro expansion of SS peptide-specific T cells, SS patient-derived non-SS PBMC were stimulated in 96-well plates with IL-2 and pooled HLA class I+II SS peptides, 10 μM each, defined by SS WGS, WES and RNAseq-based predictions or peptidome studies. After one week, cells were exposed to autologous DC pre-loaded with peptide pools, and cytokine production was analyzed by flow cytometry.
We have obtained preliminary data on aims 1 and 2 studying two SS patients with monoclonal T cell lymphomas, including potential mouse antibodies against a clonal SS TCR using cell and peptide immunization and T-cell hits that seem to be specific of a SS TCR HLA class-I-restricted CDR3beta sequence.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry (MS)-based immunopeptidomics investigates the repertoire of peptides presented at the cell surface by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. The broad clinical relevance of MHC-associated peptides, e.g. in precision medicine, provides a strong rationale for the large-scale generation of immunopeptidomic datasets and recent developments in MS-based peptide analysis technologies now support the generation of the required data. Importantly, the availability of diverse immunopeptidomic datasets has resulted in an increasing need to standardize, store and exchange this type of data to enable better collaborations among researchers, to advance the field more efficiently and to establish quality measures required for the meaningful comparison of datasets. Here we present the SysteMHC Atlas (https://systemhcatlas.org), a public database that aims at collecting, organizing, sharing, visualizing and exploring immunopeptidomic data generated by MS. The Atlas includes raw mass spectrometer output files collected from several laboratories around the globe, a catalog of context-specific datasets of MHC class I and class II peptides, standardized MHC allele-specific peptide spectral libraries consisting of consensus spectra calculated from repeat measurements of the same peptide sequence, and links to other proteomics and immunology databases. The SysteMHC Atlas project was created and will be further expanded using a uniform and open computational pipeline that controls the quality of peptide identifications and peptide annotations. Thus, the SysteMHC Atlas disseminates quality controlled immunopeptidomic information to the public domain and serves as a community resource toward the generation of a high-quality comprehensive map of the human immunopeptidome and the support of consistent measurement of immunopeptidomic sample cohorts.

Abstract
Some molecular chaperones are involved not only in assisting the folding of proteins but also, given appropriate conditions, in their degradation. This is the case for Hsp70 and Hsp90 which, in concert with the cochaperone CHIP, direct their bound substrate to degradation through ubiquitination. We generated complexes between the chaperones (Hsp70 or Hsp90), the cochaperone CHIP and, as substrate, a p53 variant containing the GST protein (p53-TMGST). Both ternary complexes (Hsp70:p53-TMGST:CHIP and Hsp90:p53-TMGST:CHIP) ubiquitinated the substrate at a higher efficiency than in the absence of the chaperones. The 3D structures of the two complexes, obtained using a combination of cryoelectron microscopy and crosslinking mass spectrometry, showed the substrate located between the chaperone and the cochaperone, suggesting a ubiquitination mechanism in which the chaperone-bound substrate is presented to CHIP. These complexes are inherently flexible, which is important for the ubiquitination process.

Abstract
Currently, 14% of the human proteome is made up of proteins whose existence is not confirmed by mass spectrometry. We performed a proteomic profiling of human mesenchymal stem cells derived from adipose tissue or umbilical cord (PRIDE accession number: PXD009893) and identified peptides derived from 13 of such missing proteins. Remarkably, we found compelling evidence of the expression of hyaluronan synthase 1 (NX_Q92839-1) and confirmed its identification by the fragmentation of four heavy-labeled peptides that coeluted with their endogenous light counterparts. Our data also suggest that mesenchymal stem cells constitute a promising source for the detection of missing proteins.

Abstract
Minimal information about an immuno-peptidomics experiment (MIAIPE) is an initiative of the members of the Human Immuno-Peptidome Project (HIPP), an international program organized by the Human Proteome Organization (HUPO). The aim of the MIAIPE guidelines is to deliver technical guidelines representing the minimal information required to sufficiently support the evaluation and interpretation of immunopeptidomics experiments. The MIAIPE document has been designed to report essential information about sample preparation, mass spectrometric measurement, and associated mass spectrometry (MS)-related bioinformatics aspects that are unique to immunopeptidomics and may not be covered by the general proteomics MIAPE (minimal information about a proteomics experiment) guidelines.

Abstract
Growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) exert essential functions to maintain an adequate metabolic activity for correct placental and fetal development. Although fructosamine (FRUCT) is used in clinical evaluation to assess the glycaemic state, the relationships between GH, IGF-I and FRUCT remain unknown in the mare. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to evaluate the relationships among these parameters in pregnant mares. A total of 30 healthy Spanish Purebred mares, with an age range of 9.33 ± 3.31 years, were studied during the 11 months of gestation. Serum concentrations of GH, IGF-I and FRUCT were analyzed by EIA, competition ELISA and spectrophotometry, respectively. GH showed a biphasic pattern, the first occurred during 4th and 5th month and the second which was higher than the 1st one during the 7th, 8th and 9th month (P < 0.05). Compared to the 1st month, the IGF-I concentrations increased in the 2nd month (P < 0.05), decreased in the 3rd and 4th month and increased to reach the maximum average value in the 5th month (P < 0.05); after slight oscillations between the 6th and 8th month, IGF-I concentrations increased in the 9th month (P < 0.05), decreasing until the end of gestation. FRUCT increased progressively and significantly from the 6th month of gestation, reaching the maximum values in the last month of gestation (P < 0.05). These results suggest that alternative mechanisms other than GH and IGF-I could be involved in the regulation of glycaemic metabolism in pregnant mare.

Abstract
![]()
The Human Proteome
Project (HPP) aims deciphering the complete
map of the human proteome. In the past few years, significant efforts
of the HPP teams have been dedicated to the experimental detection
of the missing proteins, which lack reliable mass spectrometry evidence
of their existence. In this endeavor, an in depth analysis of shotgun
experiments might represent a valuable resource to select a biological
matrix in design validation experiments. In this work, we used all
the proteomic experiments from the NCI60 cell lines and applied an
integrative approach based on the results obtained from Comet, Mascot,
OMSSA, and X!Tandem. This workflow benefits from the complementarity
of these search engines to increase the proteome coverage. Five missing
proteins C-HPP guidelines compliant were identified, although further
validation is needed. Moreover, 165 missing proteins were detected
with only one unique peptide, and their functional analysis supported
their participation in cellular pathways as was also proposed in other
studies. Finally, we performed a combined analysis of the gene expression
levels and the proteomic identifications from the common cell lines
between the NCI60 and the CCLE project to suggest alternatives for
further validation of missing protein observations.

Abstract
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR15 is a haplotype associated with multiple sclerosis. It contains the two DRB* genes DRB1*1501 (DR2b) and DRB5*0101 (DR2a). The reported anchor motif of the corresponding HLA-DR molecules was determined in 1994 based on a small number of peptide ligands and binding assays. DR2a could display a set of peptides complementary to that presented by DR2b or, alternatively, a similar peptide repertoire but recognized in a different manner by T cells. It is known that DR2a and DR2b share some peptide ligands, although the degree of similarity of their associated peptidomes remains unclear. In addition, the contribution of each molecule to the global peptide repertoire presented by the HLA-DR15 haplotype has not been evaluated. We used mass spectrometry to analyze the peptide pools bound to DR2a and DR2b, identifying 169 and 555 unique peptide ligands of DR2a and DR2b, respectively. The analysis of these sets of peptides allowed the refinement of the corresponding binding motifs revealing novel anchor residues that had been overlooked in previous analyses. Moreover, the number of shared ligands between both molecules was low, indicating that DR2a and DR2b present complementary peptide repertoires to T cells. Finally, our analysis suggests that, quantitatively, both molecules contribute to the peptide repertoire presented by cells expressing the HLA-DR15 haplotype.

Abstract
As aberrant protein phosphorylation is a hallmark of tumor cells, the display of tumor-specific phosphopeptides by Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) class I molecules can be exploited in the treatment of cancer by T-cell-based immunotherapy. Yet, the characterization and prediction of HLA-I phospholigands is challenging as the molecular determinants of the presentation of such post-translationally modified peptides are not fully understood. Here, we employed a peptidomic workflow to identify 256 unique phosphorylated ligands associated with HLA-B*40, -B*27, -B*39, or -B*07. Remarkably, these phosphopeptides showed similar molecular features. Besides the specific anchor motifs imposed by the binding groove of each allotype, the predominance of phosphorylation at peptide position 4 (P4) became strikingly evident, as was the enrichment of basic residues at P1. To determine the structural basis of this observation, we carried out a series of peptide binding assays and solved the crystal structures of HLA-B*40 in complex with a phosphorylated ligand or its nonphosphorylated counterpart. Overall, our data provide a clear explanation to the common motif found in the phosphopeptidomes associated to different HLA-B molecules. The high prevalence of phosphorylation at P4 is dictated by the presence of the conserved residue Arg62 in the heavy chain, a structural feature shared by most HLA-B alleles. In contrast, the preference for basic residues at P1 is allotype-dependent and might be linked to the structure of the A pocket. This molecular understanding of the presentation of phosphopeptides by HLA-B molecules provides a base for the improved prediction and identification of phosphorylated neo-antigens, as potentially used for cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
Despite the maturity reached by targeted proteomic strategies, reliable and standardized protocols are urgently needed to enhance reproducibility among different laboratories and analytical platforms, facilitating a more widespread use in biomedical research. To achieve this goal, the use of dimensionless relative retention times (iRT), defined on the basis of peptide standard retention times (RT), has lately emerged as a powerful tool. The robustness, reproducibility and utility of this strategy were examined for the first time in a multicentric setting, involving 28 laboratories that included 24 of the Spanish network of proteomics laboratories (ProteoRed-ISCIII). According to the results obtained in this study, dimensionless retention time values (iRTs) demonstrated to be a useful tool for transferring and sharing peptide retention times across different chromatographic set-ups both intra- and inter-laboratories. iRT values also showed very low variability over long time periods. Furthermore, parallel quantitative analyses showed a high reproducibility despite the variety of experimental strategies used, either MRM (multiple reaction monitoring) or pseudoMRM, and the diversity of analytical platforms employed. BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE From the very beginning of proteomics as an analytical science there has been a growing interest in developing standardized methods and experimental procedures in order to ensure the highest quality and reproducibility of the results. In this regard, the recent (2012) introduction of the dimensionless retention time concept has been a significant advance. In our multicentric (28 laboratories) study we explore the usefulness of this concept in the context of a targeted proteomics experiment, demonstrating that dimensionless retention time values is a useful tool for transferring and sharing peptide retention times across different chromatographic set-ups.

Abstract
Analytical proteomics has experienced exponential progress in the last decade and can be expected to lead research studies on diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers in the near future. Because the development of this type of analysis requires the use of a large number of human samples with a minimum of quality requirements, our objective was to identify appropriate indicators for quality control of plasma samples stored in biobanks for research in proteomics. To accomplish this, plasma samples from 100 healthy donors were obtained and processed according to the pre-analytical variables of: a) time delay for the first centrifugation of the original blood sample (4 or 24h) and b) number of freeze/thaw cycles (1, 2 or 3) of the processed plasma samples. The analyses of samples were performed by different and complementary methods such as SPE MALDI-TOF, DIGE, shotgun (iTRAQ, nLC MALDI TOF/TOF) and targeted nLC MS/MS proteomic techniques (SRM). In general, because the distribution of proteins in all samples was found to be very similar, the results shown that delayed processing of blood samples and the number of freeze/thaw cycles has little or no effect on the integrity of proteins in the plasma samples. SIGNIFICANCE The results of the present work indicate that blood proteins in plasma are broadly insensitive to such preanalytical variables as delayed processing or freeze/thaw cycles when analyzed at the peptide level. Although there are other studies related to protein stability of clinical samples with similar results, what is remarkable about our work is the large number of plasma samples examined and that our analyses assessed protein integrity by combining a wide set of complementary proteomic approaches performed at different proteomic platform participating laboratories that all yielded similar results. We believe our study is the most comprehensive performed to date to determine the changes in proteins induced by delayed sample processing and plasma freeze/thaw cycles.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To characterize the peptidome of the Behçet's disease-associated HLA-B*51:01 allotype as well as the differential features of major peptide subsets and their distinct endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP-1)-mediated processing. METHODS The endogenous B*51:01-bound peptidome was characterized from 721.221 transfectant cells, after affinity chromatography and acid extraction, by tandem mass spectrometry. Recombinant ERAP-1 variants were used to digest synthetic B*51:01 ligands. HLA and transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) binding affinities of peptide ligands were calculated with well-established algorithms. ERAP-1 and ERAP-2 from 721.221 cells were characterized by genomic sequencing and Western blotting. RESULTS The B*51:01 peptidome consisted of 29.5% octamers, 61.7% nonamers, 4.8% decamers, and 4.0% longer peptides. The major peptide motif consisted of Pro and Ala at position 2, aliphatic/aromatic position 3 residues, and Val and Ile at the C-terminal position. The ligands with Pro or Ala at position 2 constituted 2 distinct subpeptidomes. Peptides with Pro at position 2 showed higher affinity for B*51:01 and lower affinity for TAP than those with Ala at position 2. Most important, both peptide subsets differed drastically in the susceptibility of their position 1 residues to ERAP-1, revealing a distinct influence of this enzyme on both subpeptidomes, which may alter their balance, affecting the global affinity of B*51:01-peptide complexes. CONCLUSION ERAP-1 has a significant influence on the B*51:01 peptidome and its affinity. This influence is based on very distinct effects on the 2 subpeptidomes, whereby only peptides in the subpeptidome with Ala at position 2 are extensively destroyed, except when their position 1 residues are ERAP-1 resistant. This pattern provides a mechanism for the epistatic association of ERAP-1 and B*51:01 in Behçet's disease.

Abstract
Indian rhesus macaques are arguably the most reliable animal models in AIDS research. In this species the MHC class I allele Mamu-B*08, among others, is associated with elite control of SIV replication. A similar scenario is observed in humans where the expression of HLA-B*27 or HLA-B*57 has been linked to slow or no progression to AIDS after HIV infection. Despite having large differences in their primary structure, it has been reported that HLA-B*27 and Mamu-B*08 display peptides with sequence similarity. To fine-map the Mamu-B*08 binding motif and assess its similarities with that of HLA-B*27, we affinity purified the peptidomes bound to these MHC class I molecules and analyzed them by LC-MS, identifying several thousands of endogenous ligands. Sequence analysis of both sets of peptides revealed a degree of similarity in their binding motifs, especially at peptide position 2 (P2), where arginine was present in the vast majority of ligands of both allotypes. In addition, several differences emerged from this analysis: (i) ligands displayed by Mamu-B*08 tended to be shorter and to have lower molecular weight, (ii) Mamu-B*08 showed a higher preference for glutamine at P2 as a suboptimal binding motif, and (iii) the second major anchor position, found at PΩ, was much more restrictive in Mamu-B*08. In this regard, HLA-B*27 bound efficiently peptides with aliphatic, aromatic (including tyrosine), and basic C-terminal residues while Mamu-B*08 preferred peptides with leucine and phenylalanine in this position. Finally, in silico estimations of binding efficiency and competitive binding assays to Mamu-B*08 of several selected peptides revealed a good correlation between the characterized anchor motif and binding affinity. These results deepen our understanding of the molecular basis of the presentation of peptides by Mamu-B*08 and can contribute to the detection of novel SIV epitopes restricted by this allotype.

Abstract
We present a novel mass spectrometry-based high-throughput workflow and an open-source computational and data resource to reproducibly identify and quantify HLA-associated peptides. Collectively, the resources support the generation of HLA allele-specific peptide assay libraries consisting of consensus fragment ion spectra, and the analysis of quantitative digital maps of HLA peptidomes generated from a range of biological sources by SWATH mass spectrometry (MS). This study represents the first community-based effort to develop a robust platform for the reproducible and quantitative measurement of the entire repertoire of peptides presented by HLA molecules, an essential step towards the design of efficient immunotherapies. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.07661.001 The cells of the immune system protect us by recognizing telltale molecules produced by damaged and diseased cells, or by infection-causing microorganisms (which are also called pathogens). To help with this process, the cells in our bodies display small fragments of proteins (called peptides) on their surface that are then checked by the immune cells. Collectively, these peptides are referred to as the ‘immunopeptidome’, and deciphering the complexity of the human immunopeptidome is important for both basic research and medical science. Such an achievement would help to guide the development of next-generation vaccines and therapies against autoimmune disorders, infectious diseases and cancers. In the past, immune peptides were mostly identified using a technique that is commonly called ‘shotgun’ mass spectrometry. However, this approach doesn't always provide reproducible results. In 2012, researchers reported the development of a new approach—which they called ‘SWATH’ mass spectrometry—that could yield more reproducible data. Now, Caron et al.—including many of the researchers involved in the 2012 study—have developed a large collection of standardized tests that use SWATH mass spectrometry to analyze the human immunopeptidome. The workflow and the computational and data resources developed as part of this international effort are the first steps toward highly reproducible and measurable analyses of the immunopeptidome across many samples. Moreover, the large repository of assays generated by the project has been made public and will serve a large community of researchers, which should enable better collaborations. In the future, SWATH mass spectrometry could be used as a robust technology for the reproducible detection and measurement of pathogen-specific or cancer-specific immune peptides. This could greatly help in the design of personalized immune-based therapies. DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.07661.002

Abstract
HLA-B27 is strongly associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). We analyzed the relationship between structure, peptide specificity, folding, and stability of the seven major HLA-B27 subtypes to determine the role of their constitutive peptidomes in the pathogenicity of this molecule. Identification of large numbers of ligands allowed us to define the differences among subtype-bound peptidomes and to elucidate the peptide features associated with AS and molecular stability. The peptides identified only in AS-associated or high thermostability subtypes with identical A and B pockets were longer and had bulkier and more diverse C-terminal residues than those found only among non-AS-associated/lower-thermostability subtypes. Peptides sequenced from all AS-associated subtypes and not from non-AS-associated ones, thus strictly correlating with disease, were very rare. Residue 116 was critical in determining peptide binding, thermodynamic properties, and folding, thus emerging as a key feature that unified HLA-B27 biology. HLA-B27 ligands were better suited to TAP transport than their N-terminal precursors, and AS-associated subtype ligands were better than those from non-AS-associated subtypes, suggesting a particular capacity of AS-associated subtypes to bind epitopes directly produced in the cytosol. Peptides identified only from AS-associated/high-thermostability subtypes showed a higher frequency of ERAP1-resistant N-terminal residues than ligands found only in non-AS-associated/low-thermostability subtypes, reflecting a more pronounced effect of ERAP1 on the former group. Our results reveal the basis for the relationship between peptide specificity and other features of HLA-B27, provide a unified view of HLA-B27 biology and pathogenicity, and suggest a larger influence of ERAP1 polymorphism on AS-associated than non-AS-associated subtypes.

Abstract
Cancer cells possess aberrant proteomes that can arise by the disruption of genes involved in physiological protein degradation. Here we demonstrate the presence of promoter CpG island hypermethylation-linked inactivation of DERL3 (Derlin-3), a key gene in the endoplasmic reticulum-associated protein degradation pathway, in human tumours. The restoration of in vitro and in vivo DERL3 activity highlights the tumour suppressor features of the gene. Using the stable isotopic labelling of amino acids in cell culture workflow for differential proteome analysis, we identify SLC2A1 (glucose transporter 1, GLUT1) as a downstream target of DERL3. Most importantly, SLC2A1 overexpression mediated by DERL3 epigenetic loss contributes to the Warburg effect in the studied cells and pinpoints a subset of human tumours with greater vulnerability to drugs targeting glycolysis.

Abstract
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules bind peptides derived from the intracellular degradation of endogenous proteins and present them to cytotoxic T lymphocytes, allowing the immune system to detect transformed or virally infected cells. It is known that HLA class I-associated peptides may harbor posttranslational modifications. In particular, phosphorylated ligands have raised much interest as potential targets for cancer immunotherapy. By combining affinity purification with high-resolution mass spectrometry, we identified more than 2000 unique ligands bound to HLA-B40. Sequence analysis revealed two major anchor motifs: aspartic or glutamic acid at peptide position 2 (P2) and methionine, phenylalanine, or aliphatic residues at the C terminus. The use of immobilized metal ion and TiO2 affinity chromatography allowed the characterization of 85 phosphorylated ligands. We further confirmed every sequence belonging to this subset by comparing its experimental MS2 spectrum with that obtained upon fragmentation of the corresponding synthetic peptide. Remarkably, three phospholigands lacked a canonical anchor residue at P2, containing phosphoserine instead. Binding assays showed that these peptides bound to HLA-B40 with high affinity. Together, our data demonstrate that the peptidome of a given HLA allotype can be broadened by the presentation of peptides with posttranslational modifications at major anchor positions. We suggest that ligands with phosphorylated residues at P2 might be optimal targets for T-cell-based cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
The Spanish team of the Human Proteome Project (SpHPP) marked the annotation of Chr16 and data analysis as one of its priorities. Precise annotation of Chromosome 16 proteins according to C-HPP criteria is presented. Moreover, Human Body Map 2.0 RNA-Seq and Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) data sets were used to obtain further information relative to cell/tissue specific chromosome 16 coding gene expression patterns and to infer the presence of missing proteins. Twenty-four shotgun 2D-LC-MS/MS and gel/LC-MS/MS MIAPE compliant experiments, representing 41% coverage of chromosome 16 proteins, were performed. Furthermore, mapping of large-scale multicenter mass spectrometry data sets from CCD18, MCF7, Jurkat, and Ramos cell lines into RNA-Seq data allowed further insights relative to correlation of chromosome 16 transcripts and proteins. Detection and quantification of chromosome 16 proteins in biological matrices by SRM procedures are also primary goals of the SpHPP. Two strategies were undertaken: one focused on known proteins, taking advantage of MS data already available, and the second, aimed at the detection of the missing proteins, is based on the expression of recombinant proteins to gather MS information and optimize SRM methods that will be used in real biological samples. SRM methods for 49 known proteins and for recombinant forms of 24 missing proteins are reported in this study.

Abstract
Many physiological processes are regulated by dynamic protein interaction networks whose characterization provides valuable information on cell biology. Several strategies can be used to analyze protein-protein interactions. Among them, affinity purification combined with mass spectrometry (AP-MS) is arguably the most widely employed technique, not only owing to its high throughput and sensitivity but also because it can answer critical questions such as where, when, and how protein-protein interactions occur. In AP-MS workflows, both the target protein and its interacting partners are isolated before being identified by MS. The main challenge of this approach is to distinguish bona fide binders from background contaminants. This review focuses on the different strategies designed to circumvent this limitation. In this regard, the combination of quantitative proteomics and affinity purification emerges as one of the most powerful, yet relatively simple, strategies to characterize protein-protein interactions.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Mass spectrometry is already a well-established protein identification tool and recent methodological and technological developments have also made possible the extraction of quantitative data of protein abundance in large-scale studies. Several strategies for absolute and relative quantitative proteomics and the statistical assessment of quantifications are possible, each having specific measurements and therefore, different data analysis workflows. The guidelines for Mass Spectrometry Quantification allow the description of a wide range of quantitative approaches, including labeled and label-free techniques and also targeted approaches such as Selected Reaction Monitoring (SRM). BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE The HUPO Proteomics Standards Initiative (HUPO-PSI) has invested considerable efforts to improve the standardization of proteomics data handling, representation and sharing through the development of data standards, reporting guidelines, controlled vocabularies and tooling. In this manuscript, we describe a key output from the HUPO-PSI-namely the MIAPE Quant guidelines, which have developed in parallel with the corresponding data exchange format mzQuantML [1]. The MIAPE Quant guidelines describe the HUPO-PSI proposal concerning the minimum information to be reported when a quantitative data set, derived from mass spectrometry (MS), is submitted to a database or as supplementary information to a journal. The guidelines have been developed with input from a broad spectrum of stakeholders in the proteomics field to represent a true consensus view of the most important data types and metadata, required for a quantitative experiment to be analyzed critically or a data analysis pipeline to be reproduced. It is anticipated that they will influence or be directly adopted as part of journal guidelines for publication and by public proteomics databases and thus may have an impact on proteomics laboratories across the world. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Standardization and Quality Control.

Abstract
Background Some functions of 4.1R in non-erythroid cells are directly related with its distinct sub-cellular localisation during cell cycle phases. During mitosis, 4.1R is implicated in cell cycle progression and spindle pole formation, and co-localizes with NuMA1. However, during interphase 4.1R is located in the nucleus and only partially co-localizes with NuMA1. Results We have characterized by NMR the structural features of the C-terminal domain of 4.1R and those of the minimal region (the last 64 residues) involved in the interaction with NuMA1. This subdomain behaves as an intrinsically unfolded protein containing a central region with helical tendency. The specific residues implicated in the interaction with NuMA1 have been mapped by NMR titrations and involve the N-terminal and central helical regions. The segment of NuMA1 that interacts with 4.1R is phosphorylated during mitosis. Interestingly, NMR data indicates that the phosphorylation of NuMA1 interacting peptide provokes a change in the interaction mechanism. In this case, the recognition occurs through the central helical region as well as through the C-terminal region of the subdomain meanwhile the N-terminal region do not interact. Conclusions These changes in the interaction derived from the phosphorylation state of NuMA1 suggest that phosphorylation can act as subtle mechanism of temporal and spatial regulation of the complex 4.1R-NuMA1 and therefore of the processes where both proteins play a role.

Abstract
The association of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27 to ankylosing spondylitis is one of the strongest between a major histocompatibility complex molecule and a disease. Yet, the basis for this association remains unknown. Several hypotheses, each based on a particular feature of HLA-B27, guide much of the current research on the pathogenesis of this disease, but none has yet satisfactorily explained its mechanism and the differential association of B27 subtypes to it. In this review, the pathogenetic role of HLA-B27 will be analyzed from a global perspective of its biology, emphasizing the interdependency of multiple molecular features and the likely influence of disease-modifying gene products. From this perspective, peptide binding emerges as the cornerstone of all other biological properties.

Abstract
A significant fraction of the HLA-B27-bound peptide repertoire is resistant to proteasome inhibitors. The possible implication of tripeptidyl peptidase II (TPPII) in generating this subset was analyzed by quantifying the surface re-expression of HLA-B*2705 after acid stripping in the presence of two TPPII inhibitors, butabindide and Ala-Ala-Phe-chloromethylketone. Neither decreased HLA-B27 re-expression under conditions in which TPPII activity was largely inhibited. This was in contrast to a significant effect of the proteasome inhibitor epoxomicin. The failure of TPPII inhibition to decrease surface re-expression was not limited to HLA-B27, since it was also observed in several HLA-B27-negative cell lines, including Mel JuSo. Actually, HLA class I re-expression in Mel JuSo cells increased as a function of butabindide concentration, which is consistent with an involvement of TPPII in destroying HLA class I ligands. Inhibition of TPPII with small interfering RNA also failed to decrease the surface expression of HLA class I molecules on 143B cells. Our results indicate that TPPII is dispensable for the generation of proteasome-dependent HLA class I ligands and, without excluding its role in producing some individual epitopes, this enzyme is not involved to any quantitatively significant extent, in generating the proteasome-independent HLA-B27-bound peptide repertoire.

Abstract
Human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-B27 is strongly associated with spondyloarthropathies, including reactive arthritis. Several Gram-negative bacteria, such as Salmonella typhimurium, can trigger this disease. It has been suggested that peptides derived from bacterial proteins and presented by HLA-B27 to cytotoxic T lymphocytes might show molecular mimicry with autologous peptides, leading to T-cell cross-reaction and autoimmunity. Antigen presentation in Salmonella-infected cells could be modulated by changes in the composition of the proteasome, which is the major proteolytic system that generates major histocompatibility complex class I ligands. In this study we analysed whether the composition or activity of the 20S proteasome was altered upon infection of lymphoid cells by S. typhimurium. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis failed to show any differences between the composition of 20S proteasomes from cells infected with S. typhimurium for 24 hr, relative to non-infected cells. In addition, digestions of oxidized insulin B-chain with purified 20S proteasomes from non-infected and infected cells generated the same products, indicating that the proteasomal cleavage specificity was not altered upon infection. These data indicate that infection of lymphoid cells by S. typhimurium fails to induce formation of immunoproteasomes or otherwise alter the proteolytic specificity of the 20S proteasome.

Abstract
Many of the constitutive peptide ligands of HLA-B27, a molecule strongly associated with spondyloarthritis, are proteasome-independent. Stable isotope tagging, mass spectrometry, and epoxomicin-mediated inhibition were used to determine their percentage, structural features, and parental proteins. Of 104 molecular species examined, 29.8% were proteasome-independent, paralleling the level of HLA-B27 re-expression in the presence of epoxomicin after acid stripping. Proteasome-dependent and -independent ligands differed little in peptide motifs, flanking sequences, and cellular localization of the parental proteins. In contrast, whereas the former set arose from proteins whose size and isoelectric point distribution largely reflected those in the human proteome, proteasome-independent ligands, other than a few matching signal sequences, were almost totally derived from small (about 6-16.5 kDa) and basic proteins, which account for only 6.6% of the human proteome. Thus, a non-proteasomal proteolytic pathway with strong preference for small proteins is responsible for a significant fraction of the HLA-B27-bound peptide repertoire.

Abstract
B*2704 is strongly associated to ankylosing spondylitis in Asian populations. It differs from the main HLA-B27 allotype, B*2705, in three amino acid changes. We analyzed the influence of tapasin, TAP, and immunoproteasome induction on maturation, surface expression, and T cell allorecognition of B*2704 and compared some of these features with B*2705 and B*2706, allotypes not associated to disease. In the tapasin-deficient .220 cell line, this chaperone significantly influenced the extent of folding of B*2704 and B*2705, but not their egress from the endoplasmic reticulum. In contrast, B*2706 showed faster folding and no accumulation in the endoplasmic reticulum in the absence of tapasin. Surface expression of B*2704 was more tapasin dependent than B*2705. However, expression of free H chain decreased in the presence of this chaperone for B*2705 but not B*2704, suggesting that more suboptimal ligands were loaded on B*2705 in the absence of tapasin. Despite its influence on surface expression, tapasin had little effect on allorecognition of B*2704. Both surface expression and T cell recognition of B*2704 were critically dependent on TAP, as established with TAP-deficient and TAP-proficient T2 cells. Both immunoproteasome and surface levels of B*2704 were induced by IFN-gamma, but this had little effect on allorecognition. Thus, except for the differential effects of tapasin on surface expression, the tapasin, TAP, and immunoproteasome dependency of B*2704 for maturation, surface expression, and T cell recognition are similar to B*2705, indicating that basic immunological features are shared by the two major HLA-B27 allotypes associated to ankylosing spondylitis in human populations.

Abstract
HLA-B*2707 is associated with ankylosing spondylitis in most populations. Like the non-associated allotypes B*2706 and B*2709, it lacks Asp116 and shows preference for peptides with nonpolar C-terminal residues. The relationships between the peptide specificity of B*2707 and those of the disease-associated B*2705 and the non-associated subtypes were analyzed by determining the overlap between the corresponding peptide repertoires, the sequence of shared and differential ligands, and by comparing allospecific T cell epitopes with peptide sharing. The B*2707-bound repertoire was as different from that of B*2705 as from those of B*2706, B*2709, or the two latter subtypes from each other. Differences between B*2707 and B*2705 were based on their C-terminal residue specificity and a subtle modulation at other positions. Differential usage of secondary anchor residues explained the disparity between the B*2707-, B*2706-, and B*2709-bound repertoires. Similar differences in residue usage were found between B*2707 and both B*2704 and B*2706, as expected from the high peptide overlap between the two latter subtypes. T cell cross-reaction paralleled peptide sharing, suggesting that many shared ligands conserve their alloantigenic features on distinct subtypes. Our results indicate that association of HLA-B27 subtypes with ankylosing spondylitis does not correlate with higher peptide sharing among disease-associated subtypes or with obvious peptide motifs.

Abstract
Tapasin (Tpn) is a chaperone of the endoplasmic reticulum involved in peptide loading to MHC class I proteins. The influence of mouse Tpn (mTpn) on the HLA-B*2705-bound peptide repertoire was analyzed to characterize the species specificity of this chaperone. B*2705 was expressed on Tpn-deficient human 721.220 cells cotransfected with human (hTpn) or mTpn. The heterodimer to beta(2)-microglobulin-free H chain ratio on the cell surface was reduced with mTpn, suggesting lower B*2705 stability. The B*2705-bound peptide repertoires loaded with hTpn or mTpn shared 94-97% identity, although significant differences in peptide amount were observed in 16-17% of the shared ligands. About 3-6% of peptides were bound only with either hTpn or mTpn. Nonamers differentially bound with mTpn had less suitable anchor residues and bound B*2705 less efficiently in vitro than those loaded only with hTpn or shared nonamers. Decamers showed a different pattern: those found only with mTpn had similarly suitable residues as shared decamers and bound B*2705 with high efficiency. Peptides differentially presented by B*2705 on human or mouse cells showed an analogous pattern of residue suitability, suggesting that the effect of mTpn on B*2705 loading is comparable in both cell types. Thus, mTpn has quantitative and qualitative effects on the B*2705-bound peptide repertoire, impairing presentation of some suitable ligands and allowing others with suboptimal anchor residues and lower affinity to be presented. Our results favor a size-dependent peptide editing role of Tpn for HLA-B*2705 that is species-dependent and suboptimally performed, at least for nonamers, by mTpn.

Abstract
The very strong association of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27 with spondyloarthritis might be related to its peptide-presenting properties. The natural polymorphism of this molecule influences both peptide specificity and disease susceptibility. In this study, we present a comprehensive compilation of known natural ligands of HLA-B27 arising from endogenous proteins of human cells, together with a statistical assessment of residue usage among constitutive peptide repertoires of multiple HLA-B27 subtypes. This analysis provides evidence that every peptide position, including "non-anchor" ones, may be subjected to selection on the basis of its contribution to HLA-B27 binding and also allows a quantization of residue preferences at known anchor positions. The present registry is intended as a basis on which to build up reliable criteria to assess the effect of HLA-B27 polymorphism on peptide presentation, for T-cell epitope predictions, and for molecular mimicry studies.

Abstract
Expression of HLA-B27 in murine cells has been used to establish animal models for human spondyloarthritis and for antigen presentation studies, but the effects of xenogeneic HLA-B27 expression on peptide presentation are little known. The issue was addressed in this study. HLA-B27-bound peptide repertoires from human and murine cells overlapped by 75-85%, indicating that many endogenous HLA-B27 ligands are generated and presented in both species. Of 20 differentially presented peptides that were sequenced, only 40% arose from obvious inter-species protein polymorphism, suggesting that differences in antigen processing-loading accounted for many species-specific ligands. Digestion of synthetic substrates with human and murine 20 S proteasomes revealed cleavage differences that accounted for or correlated with differential expression of particular peptides. One HLA-B27 ligand found only in human cells was similarly generated in vitro by human and murine proteasomes. Differential presentation correlated with significantly decreased amounts of this ligand in human tapasin-deficient cells reconstituted with murine tapasin, indicating that species-specific interactions between HLA-B27, tapasin, and/or other proteins in the peptide-loading complex influenced presentation of this peptide. Our results indicate that differences in proteasomal specificity and in interactions involving tapasin determine differential processing and presentation of a significant number of HLA-B27 ligands in human and murine cells.

Abstract
HLA-B27 is strongly associated with ankylosing spondylitis. Natural HLA-B27 ligands derived from polymorphic regions of its own or other class I HLA molecules might be involved in autoimmunity or provide diversity among HLA-B27-bound peptide repertoires from individuals. In particular, an 11-mer spanning HLA-B27 residues 169-179 is a natural HLA-B27 ligand with homology to proteins from Gram-negative bacteria. Proteasomal digestion of synthetic substrates demonstrated direct generation of the B27-(169-179) ligand. Cleavage after residue 181 generated a B27-(169-181) 13-mer that was subsequently found as a natural ligand of B*2705 and B*2704. Its binding to HLA-B27 subtypes in vivo correlated better than B27-(169-179) with association to spondyloarthropathy. Proteasomal cleavage generated also a peptide spanning B*2705 residues 150-158. This region is polymorphic among HLA-B27 subtypes and class I HLA antigens. The peptide was a natural B*2704 ligand. Since this subtype differs from B*2705 at residue 152, it was concluded that the ligand arose from HLA-B*3503, synthesized in the cells used as a source for B*2704-bound peptides. Thus, polymorphic HLA-B27 ligands derived from HLA-B27 or other class I molecules are directly produced by the 20 S proteasome in vitro, and this can be used for identification of such ligands in the constitutive HLA-B27-bound peptide pool.
