Trisomy 21 (T21) is a major cause of Down syndrome but little is known about its impact on the cellular proteome. Here, the authors define the proteome of T21 fibroblasts and its turnover and also map proteomic differences in monozygotic T21-discordant twins, revealing extensive, organelle-specific changes caused by T21.
