ProteinGene _humanAccession numberBiological functionEtOHNaiveNullEtOH/naive
Ca2+activated K channel subunit α-1KCNMA1Q28204Potassium channel activated by both membrane depolarization or increase in cytosolic Ca2+ that mediates export of K+131530.9
Catenin β-1CTNB1P35222Key downstream component of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway1470.52.0
Spectrin β chainSPTB2Q01082Involved in secretion, interacts with calmodulin in a calcium-dependent manner, and is thus a candidate for the calcium-dependent movement of the cytoskeleton at the membrane22972.4
Amyloid-like protein 2APLP2Q06481May play a role in the regulation of hemostasis; the soluble form may have inhibitory properties toward coagulation factors10621.7
Clathrin interactor 1EPN4Q14677Binds to membranes enriched in phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2); may have a role in transport via clathrin-coated vesicles from the trans-Golgi network to endosomes; stimulates clathrin assembly9313.0
Junction plakoglobinPLAKP14923Common junctional plaque protein; can replace β-catenin in E-cadherin/catenin adhesion complexes, which are proposed to couple cadherins to the actin cytoskeleton3221141.5
mRNA export factorRAE1LP78406Binds mRNA; may function in nucleocytoplasmic transport and in directly or indirectly attaching cytoplasmic mRNPs to the cytoskeleton6401.5
Coatomer subunit βCOPBP53618The coatomer is a cytosolic protein complex that binds to dilysine motifs and reversibly associates with Golgi non–clathrin-coated vesicles, which further mediate biosynthetic protein transport from the ER, via the Golgi up to the trans-Golgi network12512.4
Polyadenylate-binding protein 1PABP1P11940Binds the poly(A) tail of mRNA352891.3
ClusterinCLUSP10909Extracellular chaperone that prevents aggregation of non-native proteins6401.5
Probable ATP-dependent RNA helicase DDX5DDX5P17844Involved in the alternative regulation of pre-mRNA splicing342771.3
BCL-6 corepressorBCORQ6W2J9Transcriptional corepressor6203.0
  • aSummed unique peptide count control (naive), 25 mM ethanol and null (no AHA control) all after 6 h incubation. Ratio of ethanol to naive highlights fold differences in peptide detection for each protein.
