The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signal modulates cell proliferation, migration, and survival. Aberrant activation of EGFR constitutes the major cause of various cancers. Receptor ubiquitination and degradation mediated by CBL proteins play negative regulatory roles and control the intensity and duration of the signaling. With the construction of stable cell lines inducibly expressing FLAG-tagged CBL or CBLB, we identified 102 and 82 stable interacting proteins of CBL and CBLB, respectively, through the affinity purification followed by mass spectrometry (AP-MS) approach. Time-resolved profiling at six different time points combined with functional annotations of the temporal interactomes provides insights into the dynamic assembly of signal proteins upon EGFR signaling activation. Comparison between the interactomes of CBL and CBLB indicates their redundant but also complementary functions. Importantly, we validated the stable association of EPS15L1 and ITSN2 and temporal association of TNK2 to both CBL and CBLB through biochemical assays. Collectively, these results offer a useful resource for CBL and CBLB interactomes and highlight their prominent and diverse roles in the EGFR signaling network.
