Budding Yeast Kinome Revealed Covalent modification of proteins by phosphorylation is a primary means by which cells control the biochemical activities and functions of proteins. To better understand the full spectrum of cellular control mechanisms mediated by phosphorylation, Breitkreutz et al. (p. 1043; see the Perspective by Levy et al.) used mass spectrometry to identify proteins that interacted with the complete set of protein kinases from budding yeast and with other molecules, including phosphatases, which influence phosphorylation reactions. The results reveal a network of interacting protein kinases and phosphatases, and analysis of other interacting proteins suggests previously undiscovered roles for many of these enzymes. Phosphorylation reactions in budding yeast reveal the regulatory architecture of a fundamental cellular control system. The interactions of protein kinases and phosphatases with their regulatory subunits and substrates underpin cellular regulation. We identified a kinase and phosphatase interaction (KPI) network of 1844 interactions in budding yeast by mass spectrometric analysis of protein complexes. The KPI network contained many dense local regions of interactions that suggested new functions. Notably, the cell cycle phosphatase Cdc14 associated with multiple kinases that revealed roles for Cdc14 in mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling, the DNA damage response, and metabolism, whereas interactions of the target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) uncovered new effector kinases in nitrogen and carbon metabolism. An extensive backbone of kinase-kinase interactions cross-connects the proteome and may serve to coordinate diverse cellular responses.
