Isobaric Labeling of Intact Gangliosides toward Multiplexed LC-MS/MS-Based Quantitative Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Gangliosides are sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids recognized to play essential role in biological processes. Both the glycan and lipid structures influence their biological function and thus necessitate their determination as intact molecular species. To our knowledge, no multiplexed method for intact gangliosides currently exists. In this paper, we aimed to demonstrate an approach for isobaric labeling of intact gangliosides. Specifically, we carried out the rapid, chemoselective oxidation of sialic acid side chain in common ganglioside core structures using NaIO4 followed by ligation with a carbonyl-reactive isobaric tandem mass tag (TMT) reagent and subsequent RPLC-MS/MS analysis. Attachment of the isobaric label was observed to improve the ionization efficiency of complex gangliosides using electrospray ionization. Fragmentation of the resulting [M + 2H]2+ ions of TMT-labeled gangliosides provided information-rich spectra containing fragments from the glycan, lipid, and TMT reporter ions. This facile approach enabled simultaneous quantification of up to six samples as well as identification of glycan and lipid compositions in a single injection. As a proof-of-concept, using porcine brain total ganglioside extracts pooled at known ratios, we obtained overall sample-to-sample precision of <12% RSD and mean error of <10%. This showcased the great promise and feasibility of this strategy for high-throughput analysis of intact gangliosides in biological extracts.

DiLeuPMP: A Multiplexed Isobaric Labeling Method for Quantitative Analysis of <i>O</i>-Glycans.

Project description:As one of the most important post-translational modifications, glycosylation plays a pivotal role in many essential physiological functions, including cell recognition, signaling, and immune response. Thus, various qualitative and quantitative analytical strategies for glycomic profiling have been developed in recent decades. However, while extensive efforts have been devoted to the analysis of N-glycans, high-throughput quantitative analysis of O-glycans is often overlooked and underexplored. This is partially due to the lack of a universal enzyme for the release of O-glycans from the protein backbone. Furthermore, the traditional chemical releasing method suffers from severe side reactions and involves tedious sample preparation procedures. Here, a multiplexed isobaric labeling method enabled by N,N-dimethyl leucine containing pyrazolone analogue (DiLeuPMP) is introduced. This method combines the release and labeling of O-glycans in a one-pot reaction and achieves accurate MS2-based relative quantification with the ability to process four samples at a time. The method has been applied to core-1 O-glycan standard and three glycoproteins first, and the results demonstrated its validity. Following this proof-of-principle demonstration, we analyzed more complex biological specimen using human serum samples. Overall, this method provides an effective and reliable approach for the profiling and high-throughput quantitative analysis of O-glycans in complex samples.

MS3 eliminates ratio distortion in isobaric multiplexed quantitative proteomics.

Project description:Quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomics is highly versatile but not easily multiplexed. Isobaric labeling strategies allow mass spectrometry-based multiplexed proteome quantification; however, ratio distortion owing to protein quantification interference is a common effect. We present a two-proteome model (mixture of human and yeast proteins) in a sixplex isobaric labeling system to fully document the interference effect, and we report that applying triple-stage mass spectrometry (MS3) almost completely eliminates interference.

Comprehensive Profiling of Surface Gangliosides Extracted from Various Cell Lines by LC-MS/MS.

Project description:Gangliosides act as a surface marker at the outer cellular membrane and play key roles in cancer cell invasion and metastasis. Despite the biological importance of gangliosides, they have been still poorly characterized due to the lack of effective analytical tools. Herein, we performed molecular profiling and structural elucidation of intact gangliosides in various cell lines including CFPAC1, A549, NCI-H358, MCF7, and Caski. We identified and quantified a total of 76 gangliosides on cell membrane using C18 LC-MS/MS. Gangliosides found in each cell line exhibited high complexity and diversity both qualitatively and quantitatively. The most abundant species was GM3(d34:1) in CFPAC1, NCI-H358, and MCF7, while GM2(d34:1) and GM1(d34:1) were major components in A549 and Caski, respectively. Notably, glycan moieties showed more diversity between cancer cell lines than ceramide moieties. In addition, noncancerous pancreatic cell line (hTERT/HPNE) could be distinguished by gangliosides containing different levels of sialic acid compared with cancerous pancreatic cell line (CFPAC1). These results clearly demonstrated the feasibility of our analytical platform to comprehensive profile of cell surface gangliosides for identifying cell types and subgrouping cancer cell types.

Absolute quantitative analysis of intact and oxidized amino acids by LC-MS without prior derivatization.

Project description:The precise characterization and quantification of oxidative protein damage is a significant challenge due to the low abundance, large variety, and heterogeneity of modifications. Mass spectrometry (MS)-based techniques at the peptide level (proteomics) provide a detailed but limited picture due to incomplete sequence coverage and imperfect enzymatic digestion. This is particularly problematic with oxidatively modified and cross-linked/aggregated proteins. There is a pressing need for methods that can quantify large numbers of modified amino acids, which are often present in low abundance compared to the high background of non-damaged amino acids, in a rapid and reliable fashion. We have developed a protocol using zwitterionic ion-exchange chromatography coupled with LC-MS to simultaneously quantify both parent amino acids and their respective oxidation products. Proteins are hydrolyzed with methanesulfonic acid in the presence of tryptamine and purified by strong cation exchange solid phase extraction. The method was validated for the common amino acids (excluding Gln, Asn, Cys) and the oxidation products 3-chlorotyrosine (3-ClTyr), 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NO2Tyr), di-tyrosine, N?-(1-carboxymethyl)-l-lysine, o,o'-di-tyrosine, 3,4,-dihydroxyphenylalanine, hydroxy-tryptophan and kynurenine. Linear standard curves were observed over ~3 orders of magnitude dynamic range (2-1000 pmol for parent amino acids, 80 fmol-20 pmol for oxidation products) with limit-of-quantification values as low as 200 fmol (o,o'-di-tyrosine). The validated method was used to quantify Tyr and Trp loss, and formation of 3-NO2Tyr on the isolated protein anastellin treated with peroxynitrous acid, and for 3-ClTyr formation (over a 2 orders of magnitude range) in cell lysates and complex protein mixtures treated with hypochlorous acid.

Isobaric labeling-based relative quantification in shotgun proteomics.

Project description:Mass spectrometry plays a key role in relative quantitative comparisons of proteins in order to understand their functional role in biological systems upon perturbation. In this review, we review studies that examine different aspects of isobaric labeling-based relative quantification for shotgun proteomic analysis. In particular, we focus on different types of isobaric reagents and their reaction chemistry (e.g., amine-, carbonyl-, and sulfhydryl-reactive). Various factors, such as ratio compression, reporter ion dynamic range, and others, cause an underestimation of changes in relative abundance of proteins across samples, undermining the ability of the isobaric labeling approach to be truly quantitative. These factors that affect quantification and the suggested combinations of experimental design and optimal data acquisition methods to increase the precision and accuracy of the measurements will be discussed. Finally, the extended application of isobaric labeling-based approach in hyperplexing strategy, targeted quantification, and phosphopeptide analysis are also examined.

Differential Quantitative Determination of Site-Specific Intact N-Glycopeptides in Serum Haptoglobin between Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Cirrhosis Using LC-EThcD-MS/MS.

Project description:Intact N-glycopeptide analysis remains challenging due to the complexity of glycopeptide structures, low abundance of glycopeptides in protein digests, and difficulties in data interpretation/quantitation. Herein, we developed a workflow that involved advanced methodologies, the EThcD-MS/MS fragmentation method and data interpretation software, for differential analysis of the microheterogeneity of site-specific intact N-glycopeptides of serum haptoglobin between early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and liver cirrhosis. Haptoglobin was immunopurified from 20 μL of serum in patients with early HCC, liver cirrhosis, and healthy controls, respectively, followed by trypsin/GluC digestion, glycopeptide enrichment, and LC-EThcD-MS/MS analysis. Identification and differential quantitation of site-specific N-glycopeptides were performed using a combination of Byonic and Byologic software. In total, 93, 87, and 68 site-specific N-glycopeptides were identified in early HCC, liver cirrhosis, and healthy controls, respectively, with high confidence. The increased variety of N-glycopeptides in liver diseases compared to healthy controls was due to increased branching with hyper-fucosylation and sialylation. Differential quantitation analysis showed that 5 site-specific N-glycopeptides on sites N184 and N241 were significantly elevated in early HCC compared to cirrhosis ( p < 0.05) and normal controls ( p ≤ 0.001). The result demonstrates that the workflow provides a strategy for detailed profiles of N-glycopeptides of patient samples as well as for relative quantitation to determine the level changes in site-specific N-glycopeptides between disease states.

Coupling Microdroplet-Based Sample Preparation, Multiplexed Isobaric Labeling, and Nanoflow Peptide Fractionation for Deep Proteome Profiling of the Tissue Microenvironment.

Project description:There is increasing interest in developing in-depth proteomic approaches for mapping tissue heterogeneity in a cell-type-specific manner to better understand and predict the function of complex biological systems such as human organs. Existing spatially resolved proteomics technologies cannot provide deep proteome coverage due to limited sensitivity and poor sample recovery. Herein, we seamlessly combined laser capture microdissection with a low-volume sample processing technology that includes a microfluidic device named microPOTS (microdroplet processing in one pot for trace samples), multiplexed isobaric labeling, and a nanoflow peptide fractionation approach. The integrated workflow allowed us to maximize proteome coverage of laser-isolated tissue samples containing nanogram levels of proteins. We demonstrated that the deep spatial proteomics platform can quantify more than 5000 unique proteins from a small-sized human pancreatic tissue pixel (∼60,000 μm2) and differentiate unique protein abundance patterns in pancreas. Furthermore, the use of the microPOTS chip eliminated the requirement for advanced microfabrication capabilities and specialized nanoliter liquid handling equipment, making it more accessible to proteomic laboratories.

Multiplexed peptide analysis for kinetic measurements of major human apolipoproteins by LC/MS/MS.

Project description:A multiplexed assay was developed by MS to analyze, in a single run, six major human Apos involved in lipoprotein metabolism: ApoA-I, ApoA-II, ApoB100, ApoC-II, ApoC-III, and ApoE. This method was validated in vivo in six subjects who received a 14 h constant infusion of [5,5,5-(2)H3]L-leucine at 10 ?M/kg/h. Plasma lipoprotein fractions were isolated from collected blood samples and were digested with trypsin. Proteotypic peptides were subsequently analyzed by LC/MS/MS. Enrichment measurement data were compared with those obtained by the standard method using GC/MS. The required time to obtain the LC/MS/MS data was less than that needed for GC/MS. The enrichments from both methods were correlated for ApoA-I (r = 0.994; P < 0.0001) and ApoB100 (r = 0.999; P < 0.0001), and the Bland-Altman plot confirmed the similarity of the two methods. Intra- and inter-assay variability calculated for the six Apos of interest did not exceed 10.7 and 12.5%, respectively, and kinetic parameters were similar and/or in agreement with previously reported data. Therefore, LC/MS/MS can be considered as a useful tool for human Apo kinetic studies using stable isotopes.

HAMA: a multiplexed LC-MS/MS assay for specificity profiling of adenylate-forming enzymes.

Project description:Adenylation enzymes selecting substrates for ribosomal and nonribosomal protein and peptide biosynthesis have been popular targets of enzyme engineering. Previous standard assays for adenylation specificity have been cumbersome and failed to reflect the competition conditions inside a cell because they measure substrates one at a time. We have developed an adenylation assay based on hydroxamate quenching and LC-MS/MS detection of hydroxamate products testing dozens of competing amino acid substrates in parallel. Streamlined specificity profiling of adenylation enzymes will facilitate engineering and directed evolution of ribosomal and nonribosomal peptide synthesis.

Interference-free proteome quantification with MS/MS-based isobaric isotopologue detection.

Project description:Chemical labeling of peptides prior to shotgun proteomics allows relative quantification of proteins in biological samples independent of sample origin. Current strategies utilize isobaric labels that fragment into reporter ions. However, quantification of reporter ions results in distorted ratio measurements due to contaminating peptides that are co-selected in the same precursor isolation window. Here, we show that quantitation of isobaric peptide fragment isotopologues in tandem mass spectra reduces precursor interference. The method is based on the relative quantitation of isobaric isotopologues of dimethylated peptide fragments in tandem mass spectra following higher energy collisional dissociation (HCD). The approach enables precise quantification of a proteome down to single spectra per protein and quantifies >90% of proteins in a MudPIT experiment and accurately measures proteins in a model cell line for cystic fibrosis.
