It Is Such A Great Pleasure to Visit
The Bibliotheca Alexandrina
One of the Wonders of the Modern World!
“The First Digital Library, from its Birth”

We Live in a New World of Life Sciences
New Biology---New Technology: a “parts list”
Genome Expression Microarrays
Comparative Genomics + CNV + miRNA
Proteomics and Metabolomics
Bioinformatics & Computational Biology
• Mechanism- & Evidence-Based Medicine:
“What were you doing up to now?!”
• Predictive, personalized, preventive,
participatory healthcare and community
health services
4
Key Components of the Vision of
Biology As An Information Science
• An avalanche of genomic information: validated
SNPs, haplotype blocks, candidate genes/alleles,
proteins, & metabolites--associated with disease risk
• Powerful computational methods
• Effective linkages with better environmental and
behavioral datasets for eco-genetic analyses
• Credible privacy and confidentiality protections
• Breakthrough tests, vaccines, drugs, behaviors, and
regulatory actions to reduce health risks and costeffectively treat patients globally.
5
A Golden Age for the
Public Health Sciences
Sequencing and analyzing the human genome is
generating genetic information that must be linked with
information about:
• Nutrition and metabolism
• Lifestyle behaviors
• Diseases and medications
• Microbial, chemical, physical exposures
Every discipline of public health sciences needed.
6
Definitions
Genetics is the scientific study of genes and their
roles in health and disease, physiology, and
evolution.
Genomics is a modern subset of the broader field of
genetics, made feasible by remarkable advances in
molecular biology, biotechnology, and
computational sciences, to examine the entire
complement of genes and their actions.
Global analyses permit us and require us to go
beyond the known “lamp-posts” of individual gene
associations and effects.
7
Proteins are the action molecules of the cell and the
leading candidates for biomarkers—in tissues and
in the blood. Proteins are coded for by genes.
Understanding one protein can be a lifetime’s work!
Proteomics is the global analysis of proteins in cells or
body fluids. Techniques for global analysis of
proteins are advancing rapidly, especially for
discovery of biomarkers for diagnosis, treatment,
and prevention.
Metabolomics is the global analysis of metabolites.
Proteomics + metabolomics + epigenomics =
“functional genomics”
8
Protein
DNA
9
Rationale for Proteomics
Proteins are much closer to the pathophysiologic
changes and molecular targets for drugs than are
mRNAs.
Changes in mRNAs are clues, but changes in
corresponding proteins often are not highly
correlated.
Advances in fractionation of complex tissue and
plasma protein mixtures, in mass spectrometry,
and in curated databases of proteins help address
complexity, dynamic range, and uncertainty of
protein identifications.
10
A Vision For Proteomics
Multiple protein biomarkers discovered
Biomarkers combined on diagnostic chips
Detect organ location of cancers, for surgery
or radiation
Detect mechanism of disease for
chemotherapy, even if location unknown
Mechanistic, rather than “geographic”
classification
Better efficacy/less toxicity for all types of
patients
11
Status of Proteomics Assays
• Many technology platforms of increasing
sensitivity and resolution
• Patterns or specific proteins still just
biomarker candidates —most lack
independent confirmation and coefficient of
variation, let alone “validation” with
standard clinical chemistry parameters of
sensitivity, specificity, and especially positive
predictive value
• Approaches of clinical chemistry needed to
guide further development of the field
12
Barriers for Proteomic Cancer Biomarker
Discovery in Plasma
Human cancers are very heterogeneous
Tumor proteins are in low abundance for
early detection of cancers
Tumor proteins are greatly diluted upon
release to ECF and blood
Plasma is an extraordinarily complex
specimen dominated by high abundance
proteins (50% by weight is albumin)
Knowledge of the plasma proteome is still
limited

HUPO
The international Human Proteome
Organization (HUPO) was founded in
2001. Its aims are:
1. To advance the science of proteomics
2. To enhance training in proteomics
3. To build international initiatives by
organ (liver, brain, kidney), biofluid
(plasma, urine, CSF, saliva), and
disease (cardiovascular, cancers), plus
antibodies and data standards.

THE PLASMA PROTEOME
Advantages: The most available human
specimen; the most comprehensive sample of
tissue-derived proteins; the basis for a Disease
Biomarkers Initiative tied to organ proteomes.
Specific Disadvantages:
Extreme complexity/enormous dynamic range
High risk of ex vivo modifications
Lack of highly standardized protocols
General Challenges: Inadequate appreciation of
incomplete sampling by MS/MS; evolving
annotations and unstable databases
18
Long-Term Scientific Goals of the HUPO
Human Plasma Proteome Project
1. Comprehensive analysis of plasma and serum
protein constituents in people
2. Identification of biological sources of variation
within individuals over time, with validation of
biomarkers
Physiological: age, sex/menstrual cycle, exercise
Pathological: selected diseases/special cohorts
Pharmacological: common medications
3. Determination of the extent of variation across
populations and within populations

Specifications for Data Submission
Each of 55 labs agreed (July, 2003 Workshop) to
provide, and 31 labs did provide:
a) a detailed experimental protocol, to “push the
limits” to detect low-abundance proteins
b) peptide sequences, rated as “high” or “lower”
confidence, based on MS/MS criteria
c) protein IDs from IPI 2.21 (July 2003) and
search engine parameters used to align peptide
sequences with proteins in human database
Later, we obtained m/z peak lists and raw spectra
(by DVD) for independent analyses.

Numbers of Proteins Identified
(LC-MS/MS or FTICR-MS, 18 labs)
From 15,519 reported distinct protein IDs in IPI
2.21, we chose one representative/cluster:
(a) 9504 = 1 or more peptide matches
(b) 3020 = 2+ peptide matches (Core Dataset)
(c) 1274 = 3 or more peptide matches
(d) 889 = follow-up high-stringency analysis
with adjustments for protein length and
multiple (43,000) comparisons in IPI v2.21
(Nature Biotech 2006; 24:333-338)
26
GREATEST RESOLUTION AND
SENSITIVITY
The most extensive high-confidence yield was
from combined methods of immunoaffinity
(“top-6”) depletion, 2 or 3-D highresolution fractionation, and then ESIMS/MS with ion-trap LTQ instrument.
LTQ gave several fold more IDs (1168) than
did LCQ (271) in same hands (B1-serum vs
B1-heparin) and obtained multiple peptides
for many proteins which had just one hit
with LCQ.
27
SPECIFIC OBSERVATIONS: DEPLETION
• Many investigators depleted albumin
and/or immunoglobulins
• Several were provided Agilent
immunoaffinity column to remove “top6” proteins
• Much higher numbers of identifications
after depletion if sufficient fractionation
• Inadvertent removal of other proteins;
“sponge” effect of albumin
• Assay both flow-through & bound
fractions
28
SPECIMEN VARIABLES
What evidence have we developed for choice of
specimens for analysis?
Plasma preferred over serum—more consistent, less
degradation
EDTA-plasma preferred over heparin interferences
and citrate dilution
Clot activator? necessary only for serum
Minimize freeze/thaw cycles (archives)
Minimal evidence of platelet activation [4C]
Protease inhibitors desirable, but alter proteins
29
INFLUENCE OF ABUNDANCE
Using quantitative immunoassays and
microarrays (generally unknown
epitopes), we have found very high rates
of detection of the more abundant
proteins, less in the mid-range, and
occasional detection of very low
abundance proteins, as expected.
High correlation (r=0.9) between # peptides
and measured concentrations

BIOLOGICAL INSIGHTS
The proteins identified can be annotated by
many methods. We have searched multiple
databases, including Gene Ontology, Novartis
Atlas, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man
(OMIM), incomplete or unidentified
sequences in the human genome, microbial
genomes, InterPro protein domains,
transmembrane domains, secretion signals.
See Proteomics 2005; 5:3226-3519; Wiley, 2006
32
GENE ONTOLOGY SPECIFIC TERMS
Over-represented in PPP 3020 (vs whole
genome): “extracellular”, “immune response”,
“blood coagulation”, “lipid transport”,
“complement activation”, “regulation of blood
pressure”, as expected; also: cytoskeletal
proteins, receptors and transporters.
Proteins from most cellular locations and
molecular processes are recognized.
Under-represented: “perception of smell” (1 vs
25 exp); cation transporters, ribosomal
proteins, G-protein coupled receptors, and
nucleic acid binding proteins.
33
InterPro Protein Domain Analysis
Compared with the whole human genome, the
3020 PPP proteins are:
Over-represented for EGF, intermediate filament
protein, sushi, thrombospondin, complement
C1q, and cysteine protease inhibitor.
Under-represented: Zinc finger (C2H2, B-box,
RING), tyrosine protein phosphatase, tyrosine
and serine/threonine protein kinases, helixturn-helix motif, and IQ calmodulin binding
region domains.

Comparison of Five Search Algorithms
Using PPP data, Kapp et al (Proteomics
2005) found Sequest and Spectrum Mill
more sensitive and MASCOT, Sonar, and
X!Tandem more specific for peptide
identifications at specified false-positive
rates.
Some investigators have reported using
combinations of two or more search
engines. Decision rules are necessary.
37
Can We Overcome the Idiosyncrasies of
Individual Instruments and Laboratories?
Several informatics investigators approached
the human PPP with an offer to re-analyze
the complete MS/MS datasets using their
own software and criteria from the raw
spectra (or peaklists).
These analyses eliminated the heterogeneity
of search algorithms, search parameters,
and idiosyncrasies of individual labs.
The results are hard to compare, given
different extent of analysis. However, each
can be compared with the Core Dataset. 38

Core Dataset (18 datasets, 3020)
• PepMiner (Beer, 8 large datasets, 2895)
[1051 in 3020 dataset, + 700 in the 9504]
• X!Tandem (Beavis/States, 18 datasets,
2678) [577 in the 3020; 218 in the 889]
• PeptideProphet/ProteinProphet
(Deutsch, 7+ datasets, 960)[479 in 3020]
• Mascot/Digger (Kapp, Australia, 14
datasets, 513 with 1.4% error rate;
39
ongoing analysis
What is Required and Feasible to Enhance the
Statistical Robustness of Findings?
Many complex proteomics analyses are done
once, without replicates required to estimate
coefficient of variation or other standard
parameters for clinical chemistry use.
“Five to ten independent repetitions of the
experiments are a must” [Hamacher et al,
Proteomics in Drug Discovery, 2006].
How should we determine how similar or
different are samples A and B, or the results of
methods X and Y? What decision rules apply?
We have a long way to go from discovery
research to clinical applications.

NEXT PHASE OF PPP (PPP-2)
1. Standard operating procedures (SOPs),
including EDTA-plasma as standard
specimen; replication and confirmation of
results
2. Quantitation and subproteomes, using
new methods and advanced instruments
3. Databases and robust bioinformatics
4. Clinical chem/disease-related studies
43
PPP-2 Research & Technology Thrusts
Learned a lot from Pilot Phase—plasma is a very
complex specimen; no single platform sufficient;
analyses currently far from comprehensive, let
alone reproducible; now have improved data
quality and informatics resources.
PPP-2: use multiple methods; focus on biomarker
discovery; build upon already-funded
laboratories and repositories.
44
Specific Technology Recommendations
N-Glycosite (proteotypic) peptide resource is a
special subproteome likely to have high biomarker
relevance.
Capture glycoproteins, digest with trypsin and
PNGase F to yield N-linked glycopeptides. Choose
one unique to each protein; a finite number; not
all proteins. Use complementary lectin approach to
characterize glycans.
Prepare isotope-labeled N-glyco-peptides for
multiple uses as standards and to spike specimens.
45
N-Glycosites
Glycoproteins are enriched on cell surface, in
secreted proteome and in plasma
Glycoproteins tend to be stable
Only few glycosites per protein: reduction in
sample complexity (excludes albumin)
Inherent validation of N-glycosite by fragment
ion spectrum
N-glycosite subproteome is probably the one
easiest to completely map

Issues for PPP Bioinformatics
What are imperatives for project design?
How can many more spectra be interpreted?
How can more confident protein IDs be
generated?
How do we add value and benefit from
EBI/PRIDE and ISB/PeptideAtlas repositories?
What is required to make the datasets more
useful for other investigators?
Can quantitation, including of PTMs, be achieved
with statistical robustness?

56
Can We Identify More High Confidence Peptides
from the MS/MS spectra?
The spectra, not protein lists, are the raw data.
<20% of spectra are confidently assigned to
peptide sequences; the rest are typically
discarded.
More high quality spectra can be mined
(Nesvizhskii et al, MCP 2006).
Higher mass accuracy greatly enhances results
(with some complications---Eric Deutsch).
Error estimates and thresholds should be routine
for peptide IDs and protein matches.
TransProteomicPipeline (TPP) from ISB has
been designed for this purpose.
57
Mining Un-assigned High Quality Spectra
(Nesvizhskii)
Typical search:
SEQUEST, IPI database
semi-constrained (tryptic on one end)
Met + 16
+/- 3 Da, average mass
Average numbers (LCQ/LTQ data): 10-15% of all
spectra assigned peptide with high
confidence
20-25 % of all high quality spectra are not
assigned
58
Why Are Spectra Not Assigned?
Possible causes of failure to assign peptide:
• Imperfect scoring scheme
• Constrained search (PTM, not tryptic etc.)
• Incorrect mass/ charge state
• Low spectrum quality / contaminant ion
• Correct sequence may not be in the database
searched (e.g., SNP)
• Novel sequence (splice variants, fusion peptides?)
Use MS/MS data for genome annotation
59
Finding and Mining High Quality Unassigned
Spectra (Nesvizhskii)
60
Further Analyses at the Peptide Level
The PPP, GPM, and PeptideAtlas databases are
rich with peptide-level findings, which can be
analyzed for many questions---e.g., which
peptides are most likely to be detected from
among the predicted tryptic peptides of various
proteins, and why? Can peptides be used
directly to identify sequences of splice isoforms
and SNPs? Can PTMs be identified more
readily? Answers: Yes to all three questions.
Proteotypic peptides will be a major feature of
Next Phase PPP.
61
What Kinds of Biological Insights Emerge from
Annotation?
The aim of proteomics analyses is not just
to create lists of peptides and proteins,
but to advance our understanding of
complex biological processes in health
and disease. Going forward,
quantitation of proteins and their PTMs
will be increasingly important---and
feasible.

A Bioinformatics Approach to Discover
Candidate Oncogenes
Few causal cancer genes have been discovered using
gene expression microarrays
Oncogenic events are often heterogeneous
– ERBB2/HER2 amplification in 20% of breast CA
– Activating Ras mutations in 25% of melanomas
– E2A-PBX1 translocation in 5-10% of leukemias
Chromosomal aberrations that result in marked
over-expression of an oncogene should be
detectable in transcriptome data
Protein products then may be identified in tumor,
biofluids, and plasma
