Reversible protein phosphorylation represents a major mechanism of signal transduction in a variety of cellular functions. An understanding of proteome-wide phosphorylation dynamics is important to obtain an overview of the whole signal transduction network. However, a systematic analysis for differentially expressed phosphoproteins under serum-stimulated response is lacking. Here, an easy and fast approach for the identification of differentially expressed phosphoproteins was used. After enrichment of phosphoproteins from serum-stimulated cell lysates by immobilized metal affinity chromatography, a quantitative proteomic approach with isobaric tag for absolute and relative quantitation labeling in combination with nanoLC-MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS/MS followed by ProteinPilot analysis was used. Consequently, 506 differentially expressed phosphoproteins were identified. Among them, 22 proteins that had a reproducible phosphorylation site at Ser or Thr were identified. Out of these 22 phosphoproteins, 7 are mainly involved in splicing. Among the 22 proteins, it was found that extracellular matrix tenascin-X is phosphorylated, although there is little quantitative change by the serum stimulation. MS/MS analysis revealed a novel phosphorylation site of tenascin-X, Thr1841, located in the loop region between the 10th and 11th fibronectin type III repeats. The phosphorylation of tenascin-X would be considered in clarifying its function in the future.
