TMT Labeling for the Masses: A Robust and Cost-efficient, In-solution Labeling Approach.

ABSTRACT: Isobaric stable isotope labeling using, for example, tandem mass tags (TMTs) is increasingly being applied for large-scale proteomic studies. Experiments focusing on proteoform analysis in drug time course or perturbation studies or in large patient cohorts greatly benefit from the reproducible quantification of single peptides across samples. However, such studies often require labeling of hundreds of micrograms of peptides such that the cost for labeling reagents represents a major contribution to the overall cost of an experiment. Here, we describe and evaluate a robust and cost-effective protocol for TMT labeling that reduces the quantity of required labeling reagent by a factor of eight and achieves complete labeling. Under- and overlabeling of peptides derived from complex digests of tissues and cell lines were systematically evaluated using peptide quantities of between 12.5 and 800 ?g and TMT-to-peptide ratios (wt/wt) ranging from 8:1 to 1:2 at different TMT and peptide concentrations. When reaction volumes were reduced to maintain TMT and peptide concentrations of at least 10 mm and 2 g/l, respectively, TMT-to-peptide ratios as low as 1:1 (wt/wt) resulted in labeling efficiencies of > 99% and excellent intra- and interlaboratory reproducibility. The utility of the optimized protocol was further demonstrated in a deep-scale proteome and phosphoproteome analysis of patient-derived xenograft tumor tissue benchmarked against the labeling procedure recommended by the TMT vendor. Finally, we discuss the impact of labeling reaction parameters for N-hydroxysuccinimide ester-based chemistry and provide guidance on adopting efficient labeling protocols for different peptide quantities.

Project description:Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of acute lower respiratory tract infections causing significant morbidity and mortality among children and the elderly; two RSV vaccines and a monoclonal antibody have recently been approved. Thus, there is an increasing need for a detailed and continuous genomic surveillance of RSV circulating in resource-rich and resource-limited settings worldwide. However, robust, cost-effective methods for whole genome sequencing of RSV from clinical samples that are amenable to high-throughput are still scarce. We developed Next-RSV-SEQ, an experimental and computational pipeline to generate whole genome sequences of historic and current RSV genotypes by in-solution hybridization capture-based next generation sequencing. We optimized this workflow by automating library preparation and pooling libraries prior to enrichment in order to reduce hands-on time and cost, thereby augmenting scalability. Next-RSV-SEQ yielded near-complete to complete genome sequences for 98% of specimens with Cp values ≤31, at median on-target reads >93%, and mean coverage depths between ~1,000 and >5,000, depending on viral load. Whole genomes were successfully recovered from samples with viral loads as low as 230 copies per microliter RNA. We demonstrate that the method can be expanded to other respiratory viruses like parainfluenza virus and human metapneumovirus. Next-RSV-SEQ produces high-quality RSV genomes directly from culture isolates and, more importantly, clinical specimens of all genotypes in circulation. It is cost-efficient, scalable, and can be extended to other respiratory viruses, thereby opening new perspectives for a future effective and broad genomic surveillance of respiratory viruses.ImportanceRespiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of severe acute respiratory tract infections in children and the elderly, and its prevention has become an increasing priority. Recently, vaccines and a long-acting monoclonal antibody to protect effectively against severe disease have been approved for the first time. Hence, there is an urgent need for genomic surveillance of RSV at the global scale to monitor virus evolution, especially with an eye toward immune evasion. However, robust, cost-effective methods for RSV whole genome sequencing that are suitable for high-throughput of clinical samples are currently scarce. Therefore, we have developed Next-RSV-SEQ, an experimental and computational pipeline that produces reliably high-quality RSV genomes directly from clinical specimens and isolates.
