Hybrid activation methods for elucidating nucleic acid modifications.


ABSTRACT: Hybrid tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) techniques combining electron transfer (ET) and collision activated dissociation (CAD), infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD), or ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) were implemented and evaluated for the characterization of a series of oligonucleotides and oligoribonucleotides, including both native single strands and single strands containing platinated, phosphorothioated, and 2'-O-methylated modification sites. ET-IRMPD and ET-UVPD of oligodeoxynucleotides and oligoribonucleotides resulted in rich fragmentation with respect to production of w, a, z, and d ions for DNA, and c, y, w, a-B, d, and z ions for RNA, with many product ions retaining the modification and thus allowing site specific identification. ET-IRMPD caused more extensive secondary dissociation of the ions, in addition to a broader distribution of detectable sequence ions attributed to using a lower mass cutoff. ET-UVPD promoted higher energy fragmentation pathways and created the most diverse MS/MS spectra. The numerous products generated by the hybrid MS/MS techniques resulted in specific and extensive backbone cleavages which allowed the modification sites of multiply modified oligonucleotides to be elucidated.
