Fourier Transform-Ion Mobility-Orbitrap Mass Spectrometer: A Next-Generation Instrument for Native Mass Spectrometry.

ABSTRACT: A new instrument configuration for native ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) is described. Macromolecule ions are generated by using a static ESI source coupled to an RF ion funnel, and these ions are then mobility and mass analyzed using a periodic focusing drift tube IM analyzer and an Orbitrap mass spectrometer. The instrument design retains the capabilities for first-principles determination of rotationally averaged ion-neutral collision cross sections and high-resolution measurements in both mobility and mass analysis modes for intact protein complexes. Operation in the IM mode utilizes FT-IMS modes (originally described by Knorr ( Knorr , F. J. Anal. Chem . 1985 , 57 ( 2 ), 402 - 406 )), which provides a means to overcome the inherent duty cycle mismatch for drift tube (DT)-IM and Orbitrap mass analysis. The performance of the native ESI-FT-DT-IM-Orbitrap MS instrument was evaluated using the protein complexes Gln K (MW 44 kDa) and streptavidin (MW 53 kDa) bound to small molecules (ADP and biotin, respectively) and transthyretin (MW 56 kDa) bound to thyroxine and zinc.

Project description:Metabolomics is an interdisciplinary field that aims to study all metabolites < 1500 Da that are ubiquitously found within all organisms. Metabolomics is experiencing exponential growth and commonly relies on high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS) is a form of HRMS that is particularly well suited for metabolomics research due to its exceptionally high resolution (105-106) and sensitivity with a mass accuracy in parts per billion (ppb). In this regard, FT-ICR-MS can provide valuable insights into the metabolomics analysis of complex biological systems due to unique capabilities such as the easy separation of isobaric and isomeric species, isotopic fine structure analysis, spatial resolution of metabolites in cells and tissues, and a high confidence (<1 ppm mass error) in metabolite identification. Alternatively, the large and complex data sets, long acquisition times, high cost, and limited access mainly through national mass spectrometry facilities may impede the routine adoption of FT-ICR-MS by metabolomics researchers. This review examines recent applications of FT-ICR-MS metabolomics in the search for clinical and non-human biomarkers; for the analysis of food, beverage, and environmental samples; and for the high-resolution imaging of tissues and other biological samples. We provide recent examples of metabolomics studies that highlight the advantages of FT-ICR-MS for the detailed and reliable characterization of the metabolome. Additionally, we offer some practical considerations for implementing FT-ICR-MS into a research program by providing a list of FT-ICR-MS facilities and by identifying different high-throughput interfaces, varieties of sample types, analysis methods (e.g., van Krevelen diagrams, Kendrick mass defect plot, etc.), and sample preparation and handling protocols used in FT-ICR-MS experiments. Overall, FT-ICR-MS holds great promise as a vital research tool for advancing metabolomics investigations.
