Abstract
Protein phosphorylation plays a central role in the dynamic intracellular signaling and the control of biochemical pathways in all living cells. Recent advances in high-performance MS/MS-based technology make the large-scale identification and quantification of phosphorylation sites possible. Here, we review the full data generation pipeline, starting from sample preparation methods and LC-MS detection procedures, through to data processing and analysis software tools that facilitate the systematic comparative profiling of thousands of phosphoproteins in different biological specimens in a single experiment. We emphasize current challenges and promising avenues for the mechanistic interpretation and visualization of global phosphorylation networks and their relevance to human health and disease.
