Figure 1S: Correlation matrix of the proteins that showed phospho-tyrosine signal in more than 50% of the samples included in the study.

Figure 2S: Specificity of the anti-phospho-CDCP1 antibodies:

CDCP1 WT or mutated at tyrosine 734 or 743 as indicated was expressed in U2OS cells together with Src or by itself, and anti-phospho-CDCP1 antibodies used to detect the state of CDCP1 phosphorylation. Left panel: the phospho-CDCP1 antibodies are site specific. Right panel: the phospho-CDCP1 antibodies are phospho-specific.

Figure 3S:CUB1 mAb promotes the association of CDCP1 with SRC in MCF10A cells. Cells were grown in DMEM/10% FBS to near confluence and serum-starved overnight in DMEM/0.1% FBS. After exposure of cells to CUB1 mAb (0.5 ug/ml) for 30 min, cells were lysed. The lysates were subjected to immunoprecipitation overnight with antibodies to various SFK proteins, including SFK (SC-18, 2 ug/ml), YES (SC-14, 2 ug/ml), SRC (CST2123, 4 ul/ml), and FYN (SC-434, 2 ug/ml). The immunoprecipitates were subjected to SDS-PAGE and Western blotting using the indicated antibodies. The SRC and P-416 SRC immunoblots present film exposures for both a short and long (lg) time. Exposure of cells to CUB1 mAb promoted the association of phosphorylated CDPC1 protein with SRC, SFK, and YES proteins. The modest amount of activated CDCP1 in the immunoprecipitation by the anti-FYN antibody was due to the association of CDCP1 with the CUB1 mAb itself, and was similar to that observed using antibodies to LYN and LCK (not shown).

Figure 4S: Time Course of the dephosphorylation of FAK in response to CDCP1 activation. HCT116 cells were treated for the indicated time in conditions of attachment (as used for culture maintenance) and 0.1% FBS. The phosphorylation of FAK and CDCP1 was determined by Western blotting as indicated.

Figure 5S. The inhibition of FAK activity increases the phosphorylation of CDCP1 on Tyr734 in MCF10A cells. Cells were grown in DMEM/10% FBS to near confluence. Cells were then serum-starved overnight in DMEM/0.1% FBS and exposed to CUB1 mAb (0.5 ug/ml) for 30 min or the FAK inhibitor PF573228 (10 uM) for 30-90 min. Cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE and Western blotting using the indicated antibodies. PF573228 blocked the phosphorylation of FAK on Tyr397 and produced an increase in the phosphorylation of CDCP1 on Tyr734 as early as 30 min.

Figure 6S:CUB1 mAb-stimulated migration of MCF10A cells is dependent on Src activity. Cell migration (from top to bottom of filter) was measured in the absence and presence of CUB1 (0.5 ug/ml) and the Src inhibitor SKI-606 (Panel A, 1 uM) or the FAK inhibitor PF573228 (Panel B, 1uM). *P<0.05, n=3.

Figure 7S: P-Tyr311 PKCd is Found at Cell-Cell Junctions Upon CUB1 Stimulation.

MCF10A Cells were stimulated with CUB1 mAb for 60 minutes. Top Panels: P-Tyr311 was detected with a specific antibody. DAPI was used for nuclei stain. CUB1 (used for stimulation) labels CDCP1 at cell-cell contacts (bottom panel).

Figure 8S: CUB1 induces faster formation of calcium dependent cell-cell junctions.

MCF10A cells were cultured overnight in low calcium conditions (SMEM). Culture medium was switched to DMEM (Calcium >1 mM) for 30 minutes or kept in SMEM. CUB1 was added at the time of medium change where indicated. Nascent calcium dependant cell-cell junctions were detected using an anti beta-catenin antibody.

Figure 9S: Increased Tyr311 PKC phosphorylation induced by co-treatment with PMA and CUB1. Cell stimulation was performed for 10 minutes with the indicated stimuli in the presence or absence of CUB1 (0.5 ug/ml). Total ERK blot is used as a loading control. Insulin (Ins, 100 nM), PMA (100 nM), Carbachol (Carb, 10 uM), IGF1 (100 nM), EGF (100 nM), LPA (5 uM), PDGF ( 5 ng/ml), UTP (100 uM).

Figure 10S: Co-stimulation with PMA increases the effects of CUB1 on cell-cell contacts.

Cells were stimulated for 30 minutes with the indicated stimuli (CUB1, 0.5 ug/ml and PMA, 100 nM). Actin staining was performed using rhodamine phalloidin (red). Cell-cell contacts were characterized by staining adherens junctions using an anti-beta-catenin antibody (green). Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue). Top panel: Actin stain. Bottom panel: All channels merged.

Note: A negative logFC (log-fold-change) indicates that the spectral counts of the phosphorylated peptides from the respective proteins are higher in cancer than normal samples, while a positive logFC indicates that the latter have higher counts than their cancer counterparts.

*t refers to the moderated t-statistic obtained from the empirical Bayes shrinkage model

†adj.P.Val refers for the adjusted P-values for multiple testing

‡The B-statistic (lods or B) is the log-odds that a protein is differentially phosphorylated.
