A Multiplexed Mass Spectrometry-Based Assay for Robust Quantification of Phosphosignaling in Response to DNA Damage.

ABSTRACT: A lack of analytically robust and multiplexed assays has hampered studies of the large, branched phosphosignaling network responsive to DNA damage. To address this need, we developed and fully analytically characterized a 62-plex assay quantifying protein expression and post-translational modification (phosphorylation and ubiquitination) after induction of DNA damage. The linear range was over 3 orders of magnitude, the median inter-assay variability was 10% CV and the vast majority (?85%) of assays were stable after extended storage. The multiplexed assay was applied in proof-of-principle studies to quantify signaling after exposure to genotoxic stress (ionizing radiation and 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide) in immortalized cell lines and primary human cells. The effects of genomic variants and pharmacologic kinase inhibition (ATM/ATR) were profiled using the assay. This study demonstrates the utility of a quantitative multiplexed assay for studying cellular signaling dynamics, and the potential application to studies on inter-individual variation in the radiation response.

Project description:Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants are characterized by differences in transmissibility and response to therapeutics. Therefore, discriminating among them is vital for surveillance, infection prevention, and patient care. While whole viral genome sequencing (WGS) is the "gold standard" for variant identification, molecular variant panels have become increasingly available. Most, however, are based on limited targets and have not undergone comprehensive evaluation. We assessed the diagnostic performance of the highly multiplexed Agena MassARRAY ® SARS-CoV-2 Variant Panel v3 to identify variants in a diverse set of 391 SARS-CoV-2 clinical RNA specimens collected across our health systems in New York City, USA as well as in Bogotá, Colombia (September 2, 2020 - March 2, 2022). We demonstrate almost perfect levels of interrater agreement between this assay and WGS for 9 of 11 variant calls (κ ≥ 0.856) and 25 of 30 targets (κ ≥ 0.820) tested on the panel. The assay had a high diagnostic sensitivity (≥93.67%) for contemporary variants (e.g., Iota, Alpha, Delta, Omicron [BA.1 sublineage]) and a high diagnostic specificity for all 11 variants (≥96.15%) and all 30 targets (≥94.34%) tested. Moreover, we highlight distinct target patterns that can be utilized to identify variants not yet defined on the panel including the Omicron BA.2 and other sublineages. These findings exemplify the power of highly multiplexed diagnostic panels to accurately call variants and the potential for target result signatures to elucidate new ones.ImportanceThe continued circulation of SARS-CoV-2 amidst limited surveillance efforts and inconsistent vaccination of populations has resulted in emergence of variants that uniquely impact public health systems. Thus, in conjunction with functional and clinical studies, continuous detection and identification are quintessential to inform diagnostic and public health measures. Furthermore, until WGS becomes more accessible in the clinical microbiology laboratory, the ideal assay for identifying variants must be robust, provide high resolution, and be adaptable to the evolving nature of viruses like SARS-CoV-2. Here, we highlight the diagnostic capabilities of a highly multiplexed commercial assay to identify diverse SARS-CoV-2 lineages that circulated at over September 2, 2020 - March 2, 2022 among patients seeking care at our health systems. This assay demonstrates variant-specific signatures of nucleotide/amino acid polymorphisms and underscores its utility for detection of contemporary and emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern.
