The mechanisms of action of proteasome inhibitors (PI) in multiple myeloma (MM) treatment are not fully elucidated. Here, the authors use unbiased phosphoproteomics in PI-treated MM and show increased phosphorylation of splicing-associated proteins, ultimately revealing splicing interference as a mode of PI action as well as demonstrating the spliceosome as a specific therapeutic vulnerability in this disease.
