The invention discloses 211 novel phosphorylation sites identified in signal transduction proteins and pathways underlying Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (ALCL) involving the ALK-NPM translocation/fusion, and provides phosphorylation-site specific antibodies and heavy-isotope labeled peptides (AQUA peptides) for the selective detection and quantification of these phosphorylated sites/proteins, as well as methods of using the reagents for such purpose. Among the phosphorylation sites identified are sites occurring in the following protein types: Protein Kinases (including Receptor Tyrosine Kinases), Adaptor/Scaffold Proteins, Cellular Metabolism or Miscellaneous Enzymes, Oxidoreductases, Transcription Factors, Cytoskeletal Proteins, Translation Initiation Complexes, RNA Binding Proteins, Proteases, Acetyltransferases, G protein regulators/GTPases, Helicases, Apoptosis/Cell Cycle Regulation proteins, and Hydrolases.
