- Abstract
Plasma membranes (PMs) act as primary cellular checkpoints for sensing signals and controlling solute transport. Membrane proteins communicate with intracellular processes through protein interaction networks. Deciphering these signaling networks provides crucial information for elucidating in vivo cellular regulation. Large-scale proteomics enables system-wide characterization of the membrane proteome, identification of ligand-receptor pairs, and elucidation of signals originating at membranes. In this review we assess recent progress in the development of mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomic pipelines for determining membrane signaling pathways. We focus in particular on current techniques for the analysis of membrane protein phosphorylation and interaction, and how these proteins may be connected to downstream changes in gene expression, metabolism, and physiology.
