Cilia are highly complex motile, sensory, and secretory organelles that contain perhaps 1,000 or more distinct protein components, many of which are subject to various post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation, N-terminal acetylation, and proteolytic processing. Another common modification is the addition of one or more methyl groups to the side chains of arginine and lysine residues. These tunable additions delocalize the side-chain charge, decrease hydrogen bond capacity, and increase both bulk and hydrophobicity. Methylation is usually mediated by S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)-dependent methyltransferases and reversed by demethylases. Previous studies have identified several ciliary proteins that are subject to methylation including axonemal dynein heavy chains that are modified by a cytosolic methyltransferase. Here we have performed an extensive proteomic analysis of multiple independently derived cilia samples to assess the potential for SAM metabolism and the extent of methylation in these organelles. We find that cilia contain all the enzymes needed for generation of the SAM methyl donor and recycling of the S-adenosylhomocysteine and tetrahydrofolate byproducts. In addition, we find that at least one hundred and fifty-five distinct ciliary proteins are methylated, in some cases at multiple sites. These data provide a comprehensive resource for studying the consequences of methyl marks on ciliary biology.
