Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Although tyrosine sulfation is essential to life, its biological significance is not fully understood. In this study, I first developed the method to stably identify tyrosine sulfated peptides using LC-MS/MS system. Using this method, I analyzed the secreted proteins derived from cultured cells. Large-scale proteomic studies identified several novel proteins which are tyrosine sulfated. Finally, tyrosine sulfated proteins were successfully identified from urine samples. Urine samples have many advantages over traditional blood samples, in terms of easy collection and non-invasive sources. Although further studies are needed to assess the potential clinical importance of the sulfated proteins identified in this study, these findings would promote the detection of disease biomarkers.
