ad, Identifying substrates of Cullin-RING E3 ligases: schematic representation of the GPS ORFeome library, comprising approximately 14,000 full-length, sequence-verified barcoded human ORFs (a); schematic representation of the comparative stability profiling screen using the pan-Cullin inhibitor MLN4924, where the human ORFeome library was expressed in HEK-293T cells and partitioned into six equal bins by FACS, and using the same settings and gates, the process was repeated for cells treated with MLN4924 (b); overall distribution of stability scores, comparing untreated (grey) and MLN4924-treated (red) cells (c); and 1,554 ORFs exhibited stabilization >0.5 PSI units following MLN4924 treatment (d). e,f, Assigning substrates to individual Cullin complexes: schematic representation of the barcoded sublibrary comprising the top 540 ORFs exhibiting the greatest stabilization from d (e); comparative stability profiling was performed as depicted in b to assess the stability of the library in cells expressing either an empty vector (grey) versus C-terminally truncated DN versions of Cul1 (yellow), Cul2 (light green), Cul3 (light blue), Cul4A (pink), Cul4B (purple) or Cul5 (dark green) (f). Screen profiles for four example substrates are shown. Source numerical data are available in Supplementary Tables 812.
