The field of proteomics is progressing at a rapid pace,
developing from primarily a specialist technology to a valuable
tool in biological research. Importantly, the establishment of
mass spectrometry as a quantitative method, miniaturisation of
liquid chromatography techniques, and improved sensitivity of
mass-spectrometric instrumentation now enable near-
complete monitoring of cellular proteome dynamics. An
increasing number of studies are therefore now applying
quantitative proteomics to study proteins and posttranslational
modifications in stem cells, to reveal molecular mechanisms
and pathways underlying pluripotency, differentiation and
reprogramming.

IntroductionStem cell biology is currently one of the most active and
fast-progressing areas in biology. This is driven by the
notion that principles of self-renewal, pluripotency and
differentiation are fundamental to the earliest stages of
human development as well as to diseases such as cancer.
The prospect of using stem cells in regenerative medicine
is another motivation explaining intense efforts to charac-
terise molecular mechanisms underlying stem cell
plasticity, including reprogramming. Numerous transcrip-
tomic and epigenetic studies have revealed transcrip-
tional profiles and chromatin states of stem cells and
differentiating cells [1–5]. However, it is becoming
increasingly clear that mRNA levels poorly correlate with
protein abundance [6], and that during early differen-
tiation expression of multiple proteins is regulated post-
transcriptionally [7,8]. In addition, the functioning of a
protein can be modulated by posttranslational modifi-
cations (PTMs), including phosphorylation, acetylation,
methylation, ubiquitination and sumoylation. Clearly, to
fully understand the mechanistic details of stem cell
dynamics there is a strong need for monitoring protein

levels and posttranslational modifications in a compre-
hensive and quantitative manner, however the tools to
achieve this goal have been lacking until recently.
The field of mass spectrometry-based proteomics has
progressed rapidly over the past few years, now enabling
the routine characterization of �5000 proteins in single
samples [9,10]. This even extends to >10,000 proteins in
cases where availability of sample and mass spectrometry
time are not restricted, thus creating data sets that are
thought to represent complete cellular proteomes [11,12].
This evolution is due to several key advances in instru-
mentation and methodology (Box 1) and their combi-
nation into integrated workflows (Figure 1). Although
there are multiple variations in this basic workflow
[13], the key point is that they all aim to generate dense
and unbiased data sets representing a large proportion of
the proteome. This is an important prerequisite for sub-
sequent bioinformatic analyses to derive biologically
meaningful information.
In this review, we discuss recent advances in the field of
stem cell proteomics, with an emphasis on studies of the
last two years that have taken a quantitative time course
analysis approach to understand changes in cell fate.
Proteomic analysis of cell differentiation andreprogrammingQuantitative proteomics has been extensively used to
compare cellular states in a binary fashion [9,17–20].
For instance, a number of studies have compared iPSCs
and ESCs to assess if the functional similarity of these
cells is also reflected in their proteomes. Kim and col-
leagues compared human newborn foreskin fibroblasts
(hFFs), hiPSCs and hESCs by 2D-gel electrophoresis
[21]. Although this approach suffers from low sensitivity
thus excluding many low-abundant proteins, the study
showed that 15 proteins were differentially expressed
between hESCs and hiPSCs. Two other groups have
achieved much greater proteome coverage of hESCs
and hiPSCS, using stable isotope labelling, SCX chroma-
tography for peptide fractionation and high-mass-
accuracy MS [10,22]. Phanstiel and colleagues compared
four hESC and four hiPSC lines, while Munoz et al.
performed two experiments each comparing an hiPSCs
cell line to its precursor cell line and to hESCs. Although
both studies achieved great depth identifying 6761 [10]
and 10,628 proteins [22] only 2234 and 2683 proteins were
quantified in all replicates in the respective studies. This
represents only 25–33% of the proteins identified, thus
excluding the majority from the statistical analysis.
Nevertheless, 293 and 58 proteins were found to be

Box 1 Major advances in proteomic technologies
Achieving full coverage of cellular proteomes is challenged by two
major factors inherent to most biological samples: proteome com-
plexity and dynamic range. Facing this problem, a number of
developments in methodology and instrument design, ranging from
sample preparation to chromatography and mass spectrometry have
contributed to the improved analytical power of proteomic workflows.
When used in combination, they now permit to dig deep into the
proteome identifying and quantifying proteins even in the lowest
abundance range and in small sample sizes (10,000–100,000 cells).
The most salient advances are listed below, the following reviews and
references therein provide an excellent entry point for a more detailed
overview: [13–16].
Sample preparation
� Protocols for generic and unbiased extraction of proteins from
cells.
� Integration of protein isolation and digestion in miniaturized
devices (on-filter, on-column).
� Stable isotope labelling approaches for protein quantification (e.g.
SILAC, TMT, iTRAQ).
� Peptide fractionation techniques (e.g. SCX, IEF, HILIC) to reduce
sample complexity thereby increasing overall sampling depth.
� Enrichment of posttranslationally modified proteins (e.g. TiO2 and
IMAC for phosphopeptides; modification-specific antibodies).
Chromatography
� Miniaturization of liquid chromatography columns (20–75 mm
internal diameter) to enhance sensitivity.
� Decreased particle size of chromatographic sorbents (1.5–5 mm)
and extended column length (30–50 cm) to improve peak shape
and peak capacity.
� Ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) systems deli-
vering consistent low flow rates (�100–300 nl/min).
Mass spectrometry
� Efficient ion transfer optics improving overall sensitivity.
� Fast peptide fragmentation (�10 Hz) boosting the number of
peptide identifications per time unit.
� Availability of various modes of peptide fragmentation (CID, HCD,
ETD) with overlapping performance for peptide subsets (e.g. with/
without PTMs).
� Sensitive detection with high resolution and high mass accuracy
for protein identification at low false discovery rate (e.g. Orbitrap,
time-of-flight).
Bioinformatics
� Integrated workflows for raw data processing, peak detection,
protein identification and quantification, and data quality evalua-
tion (e.g. MaxQuant, Proteome Discoverer).
differentially expressed between hESCs and hiPSCs with
statistical significance, respectively, however with low
overlap between the two studies [23]. Importantly, the
study by Phanstiel and colleagues showed that expanding
the number of replicate analyses from 1 to 3 increased the
number of differentially expressed proteins detected with
statistical significance from 5 to 293 proteins [22]. This is a
clear demonstration of how experimental design enables
more powerful statistical evaluation, thus determining the
overall outcome of the study especially when proteomic

differences are small. Another remaining question emer-
ging from these studies is whether the small overlap
between the data sets is due to the use of different cell
lines, different technologies and instrumentation, or both.
This touches on a general conundrum in the field where
data produced in one lab cannot always be fully repro-
duced in another lab, because of differences in data
collection or processing.
Determining proteome changes in cells during their tran-
sition from one state to another is best done in a time-series
to capture temporal dynamics of protein expression. Sev-
eral such studies have been conducted recently, in differ-
ent contexts of cellular differentiation and development
[24–26,27�,28–31,32��]. To save in mass spectrometry
time, multiplexed approaches using isobaric mass tags
(e.g. TMT or iTRAQ) have been popularly used, offering
the capability to compare several proteomic states (e.g. up
to eight time points) in a single experiment. However,
these approaches still suffer from decreased proteome
sampling depth [33] and quantification accuracy [34], for
which improvements have started to emerge [35] but are
not yet fully resolved [36]. iTRAQ has been used to
investigate proteome dynamics during ESC differentiation
by embroid body formation [37] or by transfer of ESCs to
medium that lacked the factors needed for stem cell
maintenance [38]. While these studies led to the charac-
terisation of 575 and 1032 protein expression profiles,
respectively, a greater depth has been achieved in the
analysis of differentiation of ESCs into oligodendrocyte
progenitor cells [39�]. Here, 4-plex iTRAQ combined with
SCX fractionation and analysis by high-resolution nano
LC–MS/MS resulted in the quantification of about 3000
proteins, including novel markers (e.g. AMBRA1, NID1
and CRYAB) of different steps during oligodendrocyte
differentiation.
The first proteomic study of cellular reprogramming was
recently reported [40��], monitoring the dynamics of
protein expression over time, from fibroblasts to the
induced pluripotent state (Figure 2). Specifically, FACS-
sorting on the basis of Thy1, SSEA1 and Oct4-GFP
expression was used to collect cells destined to reach
the pluripotent state [41], at 3-day intervals over the entire
15 days of reprogramming. Stable isotope labelling via
reductive dimethylation was then used to quantify pro-
teome changes between each of the consecutive time
points. Peptide fractionation by isoelectric focusing and
analysis by high-resolution nano LC–MS/MS led to the
quantification of close to 8000 proteins. The data revealed a
two-step resetting of the proteome during the first and last
three days of reprogramming, indicating that the proteome
composition of the intermediate states is remarkably differ-
ent from either fibroblasts or iPSCs. In addition, the study
showed that proteins within complexes and protein
families change in abundance in a highly synchronous
fashion, suggesting a shared regulatory mechanism.

Quantitative proteomic workflow. A typical proteomic experiment for comparison of cellular proteomes consists of lysis of collected cells, protein
extraction, enzymatic digestion of proteins into peptides, followed by a fractionation step to reduce the complexity of the peptide mixture. If a specific
class of peptides is targeted, for example, phosphorylated peptides, enrichment strategies are employed. Each peptide fraction is then analysed by
reversed-phase liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC–MS), in which peptides are fragmented by tandem MS (MS/MS). Search
algorithms are used to match experimental to theoretical fragmentation patterns of peptide sequences predicted from the genome sequence, thus
leading to peptide and protein identity. Protein quantification is typically achieved through the use of stable isotope labels, incorporated either
metabolically at the protein level or chemically at the peptide level. A multitude of bioinformatic approaches can then be used to interpret the data and
to infer biological insight by expression, cluster and network analysis.

Quantitative proteomic analysis of cellular reprogramming. (a) Cells undergoing reprogramming to pluripotency were FACS-sorted at three-day
intervals. Extracted proteins were digested, labelled by stable isotopes, fractionated via isoelectric focusing and analysed by LC–MS/MS. Close to
8000 proteins were identified, which were analysed bioinformatically to derive insights at various levels: (b) grouping all proteins in a heatmap revealed
large protein abundance changes early and late during reprogramming, while small changes occurred in the intermediate phase. (c) Clustering of
proteins with common expression profile along reprogramming revealed enrichment of biological processes within each cluster. (d) Proteins within
protein complexes and families showed strongly coordinated expression changes during reprogramming. (e) In stark contrast to the rest of the 26
quantified nuclear pore proteins, Nup210 was strongly increased, a phenomenon that was demonstrated to be essential for reprogramming (adapted
from Ref. [40��]).

Phosphoproteomic analysis of early ESC differentiation. (a) ESCs were cultured in SILAC medium and then induced to differentiate in a nondirected
manner. After protein extraction and digestion, peptides were fractionated with SCX, followed by phosphopeptide enrichment using TiO2 and analysis
by LC–MS/MS. (b) Among 6500 proteins and 15,000 phosphopeptides, changes in the phosphoproteome were more extensive than the changes in
protein abundance. (c) Extensive changes in phoshorylation was found in the N-terminal regions of DNA-methyltransferases (DNMTs). (d) A specific
interaction of DNMTs with the PAF1 transcriptional elongation complex (PAF1C) was found during early differentiation (adapted from Ref. [32��]).
Exceptions to this pattern, where the expression profile of a
single protein deviates from the rest of the proteins within a
complex, was proposed to indicate a specific functionality
during reprogramming. Such a deviating pattern was
observed for the nuclear pore protein Nup210, which
was indeed demonstrated to have a critical regulatory role
in cell cycle progression and reprogramming, evidenced by
the failure to generate iPSCs upon knock-down of Nup210
(Figure 2) [40��].
Posttranslational modifications during stemcell differentiationA major benefit of mass spectrometry-based proteomics is
its potential to identify posttranslational modifications.
Phosphorylation is among the most prominent examples,
fulfilling an important role in cell signalling. Since the
stoichiometry of protein phosphorylation is typically very
low, this has triggered the development of enrichment
strategies to facilitate the detection of phosphorylated
peptides, finding their way to phosphoproteome analysis
in stem cells [22,42–45].

First insight into global temporal phosphorylation
dynamics in hESCs was provided in a study applying
quantitative MS to analyse the phosphoproteome of hESCs
during the first four hours of bone morphogenic protein
(BMP)-induced differentiation [45]. Amongst others, this
revealed that Sox2, a key pluripotency factor, is itself
subject to phosphorylation. An expanded understanding
was provided more recently by Rigbolt and colleagues, who
performed quantitative proteomic and phosphoproteomic
analyses of hESCs during the first 24 hours after induction
of nondirected hESC differentiation [32��]. Importantly,
two distinct differentiation protocols allowed for discrimi-
nation between treatment-specific and common events
associated with induction of differentiation. Using a
SILAC-approach combined with SCX fractionation,
TiO2 phosphopeptide enrichment and high-resolution
LC–MS/MS, an in-depth phosphoproteomic dataset was
achieved, identifying 6521 proteins and mapping 14,865
phosphopeptides (Figure 3). In addition to highlighting
dynamic phosphorylation on DNA methyltransferases, the
data revealed that alteration of the phosphoproteome was

more extensive than the changes in protein abundance (30–45% sites showed a change in phosphorylation status while
17–19% proteins changed in abundance) (Figure 3).
Indeed, of 216 identified transcription factors, including
many with an established role in stem cell pluripotency and
differentiation, only about 10% changed in abundance
within 24 hours of differentiation, while almost half of all
714 phosphorylation sites on transcription factors changed
more than twofold over the same period. Interestingly, a
study investigating FGF-2-assisted stem cell maintenance
also identified transcription factors as one of the largest
classes of regulated phosphoproteins [46], suggesting that
dynamics of phosphorylation intersects with transcription
factor activity.
Beyond phosphorylation, other posttranslational modifi-
cations that may regulate stem cell properties should not
be neglected [47]. Recently, quantitative mass spectrom-
etry was successfully employed to map the global changes
in ubiquitination in pluripotent and differentiated ESCs,
identifying multiple members of the core pluripotency
machinery to be ubiquitinylated [48�]. The authors there-
fore suggest that the ubiquitin-proteasome system is an
additional mode of regulation of stem cell pluripotency.
Conclusions and outlookQuantitative proteomics is still a young field where con-
tinuous technical and methodological advances indicate
that full maturation has not been reached yet. Future
developments will continue to focus on increasing sen-
sitivity and throughput to maximize the information
content obtained from small cell populations. Future
trends facilitated by increased speed and sensitivity of
mass spectrometers will likely include minimizing the
number of sample handling steps [49] to avoid protein
losses along the way. Importantly, this will permit a
decrease in the number of cells required for in-depth
proteome analysis, opening the way to analyse highly
purified rare cell populations obtained by FACS-sorting
or tissue micro-dissection [50]. In addition, further de-
velopment of approaches for multiplexed data collection
will facilitate dynamic proteome profiling across multiple
time points or conditions [51,52]. All of this will help to
bridge proteomic methodologies to in vitro and in vivosystems used in stem cell biology, thereby enabling the
identification of markers and mechanisms pertinent to
many facets of cell fate decision.

This is the first study reporting protein dynamics during cellular repro-gramming. Combining a transgenic mouse model, isolation of cellsdestined to reach the iPS state, and in-depth protein analysis coveringabout 8000 proteins, the authors demonstrate that reprogramming fol-lows two waves of protein expression changes and that the nuclear poreprotein Nup210 is essential for reprogramming.
