The ability to reliably and reproducibly measure any protein of the human proteome in any tissue or cell type would be transformative for understanding systems-level properties as well as specific pathways in physiology and disease. Here, we describe the generation and verification of a compendium of highly specific assays that enable quantification of 99.7% of the 20,277 annotated human proteins by the widely accessible, sensitive, and robust targeted mass spectrometric method selected reaction monitoring, SRM. This human SRMAtlas provides definitive coordinates that conclusively identify the respective peptide in biological samples. We report data on 166,174 proteotypic peptides providing multiple, independent assays to quantify any human protein and numerous spliced variants, non-synonymous mutations, and post-translational modifications. The data are freely accessible as a resource at http://www.srmatlas.org/, and we demonstrate its utility by examining the network response to inhibition of cholesterol synthesis in liver cells and to docetaxel in prostate cancer lines.

Precise multiplexed quantification of proteins in biological samples can be achieved by targeted proteomics using multiple or parallel reaction monitoring (MRM/PRM). Combined with internal standards, the method achieves very good repeatability and reproducibility enabling excellent protein quantification and allowing longitudinal and cohort studies. A laborious part of performing such experiments lies in the preparation steps dedicated to the development and validation of individual protein assays.

The Human Proteome Project (HPP) has made great efforts to clarify the existing evidence of human proteins since 2012. However, according to the recent release of neXtProt (2019-1), approximately 10% of all human genes still have inadequate or no experimental evidence of their translation at the protein level. They were categorized as missing proteins (PE2-PE4).

The technological and scientific progress performed in the Human Proteome Project (HPP) has provided to the scientific community a new set of experimental and bioinformatic methods in the challenging field of shotgun and SRM/MRM-based Proteomics. The requirements for a protein to be considered experimentally validated are now well-established, and the information about the human proteome is available in the neXtProt database, while targeted proteomic assays are stored in SRMAtlas. However, the study of the missing proteins continues being an outstanding issue.

The Chromosome-centric Human Proteome Project (C-HPP), announced in September 2016, is an initiative to accelerate progress on the detection and characterization of neXtProt PE2,3,4 "missing proteins" (MPs) with a mandate to each chromosome team to find about 50 MPs over 2 years. Here we report major progress toward the neXt-MP50 challenge with 43 newly validated Chr 17 PE1 proteins, of which 25 were based on mass spectrometry, 12 on protein-protein interactions, 3 on a combination of MS and PPI, and 3 with other types of data. Notable among these new PE1 proteins were five keratin-associated proteins, a single olfactory receptor, and five additional membrane-embedded proteins.

Motivation: Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM)-based targeted proteomics is increasingly being used to study the molecular basis of disease. When combined with an internal standard, MRM allows absolute quantification of proteins in virtually any type of sample but the development and validation of an MRM assay for a specific protein is laborious. Therefore, several public repositories now host targeted proteomics MRM assays, including NCI's Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium assay portals, PeptideAtlas SRM Experiment Library, SRMAtlas, PanoramaWeb and PeptideTracker, with all of which contain different levels of information.
