An Extensive Atlas of Proteome and Phosphoproteome Turnover Across Mouse Tissues and Brain Regions

Understanding how proteins in different mammalian tissues are regulated is central to biology. Protein abundance, turnover, and post-translational modifications like phosphorylation, are key factors that determine tissue-specific proteome properties. However, these properties are challenging to study across tissues and remain poorly understood. Here, we present Turnover-PPT, a comprehensive resource mapping the abundance and lifetime of 11,000 proteins and 40,000 phosphosites across eight mouse tissues and various brain regions, using advanced proteomics and stable isotope labeling. We revealed tissue-specific short- and long-lived proteins, strong correlations between interacting protein lifetimes, and distinct impacts of phosphorylation on protein turnover. Notably, we discovered that peroxisomes are regulated by protein turnover across tissues, and that phosphorylation regulates the stability of neurodegeneration-related proteins, such as Tau and -synuclein. Thus, Turnover-PPT provides new fundamental insights into protein stability, tissue dynamic proteotypes, and the role of protein phosphorylation, and is accessible via an interactive web-based portal at https://yslproteomics.shinyapps.io/tissuePPT.
