Glioblastoma (GBM) is a devastating malignant brain tumor with a poor prognosis. GBM is associated with radioresistance. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) such as protein phosphorylation can play an important role in the cellular response to radiation. To better understand the early cellular activities after radiation in GBM, we carried out a phospho-proteomic study on the U251 cell line 3 h after X-ray irradiation (6Gy) and on non-irradiated cells. Our study showed a strong modification of proteoform phosphorylation in response to radiation. We found 453 differentially expressed phosphopeptides (DEPs), with 211 being upregulated and 242 being downregulated. A GO enrichment analysis of DEPs showed a strong enrichment of the signaling pathways involved in DNA damage response after irradiation and categorized them into biological processes (BPs), cellular components (CCs) and molecular functions (MFs). Certain accessions such as BRCA1, MDC1, H2AX, MDC1, TP53BP1 were dynamically altered in our fraction and are highly associated with the signaling pathways enriched after radiation.
