Abstract:
Shotgun phosphoproteomics enables high-throughput analysis of phosphopeptides in biological samples, but low phosphopeptide identification rate in data analysis limits the potential of this technology. Here we present DeepRescore2, a computational workflow that leverages deep learning-based retention time and fragment ion intensity predictions to improve phosphopeptide identification and phosphosite localization. Using a state-of-the-art computational workflow as a benchmark, DeepRescore2 increases the number of correctly identified peptide-spectrum matches by 17% in a synthetic dataset and identifies 19%-46% more phosphopeptides in biological datasets. In a liver cancer dataset, 30% of the significantly altered phosphosites between tumor and normal tissues and 60% of the prognosis-associated phosphosites identified from DeepRescore2-processed data could not be identified based on the state-of-the-art workflow. Notably, DeepRescore2-processed data uniquely identifies EGFR hyperactivation as a new target in poor-prognosis liver cancer, which is validated experimentally. Integration of deep learning prediction in DeepRescore2 improves phosphopeptide identification and facilitates biological discoveries.
