Larsen\nUniverstiy of Southern Denmark\nMcIntyre Medical Building\, Room 521\nPhosphoproteomics\nWe have developed robust s trategies for the specific enrichment\nof phosphorylated peptides from com plex mixtures\, including\ntitanium dioxide procedures (1) and procedures for the separation\nof multiphosphorylated peptides from monophosphorylate d peptides\n(SIMAC)(2). These strategies we have applied to a variety of\n biological systems including depolarization signaling in nerve\nendings.\n During the last few years we have performed comprehensive\nmapping of phos phorylation sites in proteins involved in synaptic\nvesicle endocytosis (S VE) which is the mechanism with which\nsynaptic vesicles are recruited bac k into the nerve end after\nrelease of neurotransmitters following depolar ization of nerve\nendings. The biological events exocytosis and endocytosi s are\nextremely important and crucial for maintenance of synaptic\ntransm ission between nerve cells.\nNew  strategies has recently been developed f or large scale\nphosphoproteomics aiming at downscaling and optimizing the \nprocedures for very low amount of materials obtainable from primary\ncel ls (µg level).  Preliminary data obtained using one of the\nnew strategies on isolated synaptosomes has revealed a large number\nof peptides carryin g multiply phosphorylation sites as well as\nsingly phosphorylation sites\ , which are only detected with this\nnovel technique. We have presently pu rified synaptosomes from rat\nbrains and validated the function and qualit y of these with respect\nto responses to 10 sec depolarization using 32P-A TP incorporation.\nWe have presently identified >2000 unique phosphorylati on sites\nfrom very small amount of proteins from synaptosomes using only the\nnew strategy.\n DTSTART:20090930T180000Z DTEND:20090930T180000Z LOCATION:McIntyre Medical Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3G 1Y6\, 3655 pr omenade Sir William Osler SUMMARY:Phosphoproteomics URL:/channels/event/phosphoproteomics-109646 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
