Abstract
This protocol is meant to accompany the manuscript "Probing the proteome-wide interactomes of Leucine-rich Repeat Kinases 1 and 2 and alterations in their phosphorylation activity" and its methods section.
The protocol describes all steps of the experimental workflow starting from cell culture over TurboID, streptavidin enrichment and phosphopeptide enrichment to mass spectrometric analysis using Data-Independent acquisition (DIA)-based quantification and data analysis.

The aim is to get a comprehensive dataset of interactors together with changed phosphosites of this interactome based on TurboID (Cho et al., 2020) and TiO2-based phosphoenrichment.

All steps are described per sample.
Guidelines
When preparing samples for mass spectrometry, work carefully, always wear appropriate gloves to minimize sample contamination that impedes your analysis. For downstream applications like mass spectrometry, it is crucial to wash cell pellets carefully to minimize protein contamination through fetal bovine serum.

For cell culture, please check your cell line(s) routinely for mycoplasma and other contaminations to avoid artefacts introduced thereby.

Safety warnings
Before performing the experiment, please optimize the incubation of biotin with TurboID-transfected cells to avoid overlabelling. This can be done by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting or mass spectrometry.

Please do not skip the detergent removal step as it is crucial for an optimal mass spectrometric analysis. Detergents like NP-40 will interfer with C18 nano-HPLC and lead to non-optimal resolution of peptides. Also, they can contaminate the mass spectrometers and cause ion suppression.

After performing the phosphopeptide enrichment, make sure that the exposition to basic pH is as short as possible because this can cause a loss of phosphorylations
Perform the enrichment shortly before measurement to keep native phosphorylation intact.
Before start
Please read the protocol carefully before you start the experiment to prepare all materials and methods and plan time and resources accordingly.

Retain only proteins or peptides that were confidently identified with a Q-value ≤ 0.01.
Export quantification results as pivot report for statistical analysis and hypothesis testing.
Use an appropriate tool for statistical analysis. For example, you can use Perseus.

For statistical analysis of Fraction 1:
Load data from Spectronaut into your tool.
Filter out Contaminants
Log2 transform quantities.
Group all replicates of one condition so you can use these groups for subsequent filtering and analysis.
Filter out proteins that have been identified and quantified inconsistently in less than 3 or 4 of 4 biological replicates across all conditions, i.e. if a protein has been identified sparsely in all conditions, filter it out, but if it is identified in 3 or 4 of 4 replicates in one condition or more, keep it.
Filter out proteins that have been identified and quantified based on only 1 precursor.
Impute missing values using a tail-based imputation. This step is crucial to perform hypothesis tests.
Use two-sample t-tests to determine significant differences between two conditions and multiple sample t-tests (ANOVA-based) to determine significant differences between more than 2 conditions.
Filter results for significantly changed proteins
You can also perform a post-hoc Tukey test based on the results from the ANOVA to determine between which conditions significant differences were identified. Then, use these results to filter out hits that are enriched in the control or filter hits that are significantly changed between certain conditions.
Normalize values to z-scores and average replicates of the same condition.
Perform hierarchical cluster analysis to identify and visualize cluster of protein that behave similarly and are enriched or depleted for one or more conditions.
Use clusters from previous step to perform further interactome analysis.
For statistical analysis of Fraction 2
Use the phosR package to process phosphosites.

Keep only phosphosites that were identified in more than 2 of 4 replicates for at least one condition.
Impute missing values first using a site- and condition specific imputation, and then a paired-tail imputation and normalize resulting values.
Export data from phosR and continue in your statistical tool of choice or continue in R.
Perform hypothesis tests for phosphosites as described for proteins above.
