Sensing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis by the immune system relies on recognition by macrophages. Mycobacterial cord factor, trehalose-6,6’-dimycolate (TDM), is the most abundant cell wall glycolipid and binds to the C-type lectin receptor Mincle. To explore the kinase signaling linking the TDM-Mincle interaction to gene expression, we employed quantitative phosphoproteome analysis using dimethyl-labeling and high-resolution mass spectrometry. TDM caused upregulation of 6.7% and suppressed 3.8% of the 14k phospho-sites identified in 3727 proteins. Mincle-dependent phosphorylation was observed for several canonical players of CLR signaling (e.g. PLC, PKC), and was enriched for PKC and GSK3 kinase motifs. Mincle-dependent activation of the PI3K-AKT-GSK3 pathway contributed to TDM-induced inflammatory gene expression and required the PI3K regulatory subunit p85. Unexpectedly, a substantial fraction of TDM-induced phosphorylation was Mincle-independent, a finding which was paralleled by RNAseq-based transcriptome data. GO and pathway enrichment analysis of both datasets concurred in the requirement for Mincle in “innate immune response”. In contrast, Mincle-independent phosphorylation and transcriptome responses to TDM were linked to “cell cycle” and to the DNA damage response. Collectively, our global analyses show substantial reprogramming of macrophages by mycobacterial cord factor and reveal a dichotomy of Mincle-dependent and –independent signaling linked to distinct biological responses
