Parallel Determination of Polypeptide and Oligosaccharide Connectivities by Energy-Resolved Collison-Induced Dissociation of Protonated O-Glycopeptides Derived from Nonspecific Proteolysis.

ABSTRACT: Collision-induced dissociation (CID) is by far the most broadly applied dissociation method used for tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). This includes MS/MS-based structural interrogation of glycopeptides for applications in glycoproteomics. The end goal of such measurements is to determine the monosaccharide connectivity of the glycan, the amino acid sequence of the peptide, and the site of glycosylation for each glycopeptide of interest. In turn, this allows inferences with respect to the glycoprofile of the intact glycoprotein. For glycopeptide analysis, CID is best known for the ability to determine glycosidic topology of the oligosaccharide group; however, CID has also been shown to produce amide bond cleavage of the polypeptide group. Whether structural information is obtained for the glycan or the peptide has been found to depend on the applied collision energy. While these energy-resolved fragmentation pathways have been the subject of several studies on N-linked glycopeptides, there remains a dearth of similar work on O-linked glycopeptides. In this study, MS/MS via CID was shown to provide substantial peptide backbone fragmentation, in addition to glycosidic fragmentation, in an energy-dependent manner. While qualitatively similar to previous findings for N-glycopeptides, the energy-resolved CID (ER-CID) of O-glycopeptides was found to be substantially more sensitive to the collision energy setting. Thus, deliberately obtaining either glycan or peptide dissociation is a more delicate undertaking for O-glycopeptides. Establishing a more complete understanding of O-glycopeptide ER-CID is likely to have a substantive impact on how O-glycoproteomic analysis is approached in the future.

Project description:Glycopeptide-level mass spectrometry (MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) analyses are commonly performed to establish site-specific protein glycosylation profiles that are of central importance to gaining structure-function insights on glycoproteins. Confoundingly, the complete characterization of glycopeptide connectivity usually requires the acquisition of multiple MS/MS fragmentation spectra. Complementary ion fragmentation techniques such as collision-induced dissociation (CID) and electron transfer dissociation (ETD) are often applied in concert to address this need. While structurally informative, the requirement for acquisition of two MS/MS spectra per analyte places considerable limitations upon the breadth and depth of large-scale glycoproteomic inquiry. Here, a previously developed method of multiplexing CID and ETD is applied to the study of glycopeptides for the first time. Integration of the two dissociation methods was accomplished through addition of an ion mobility (IM) dimension that disperses the two stages of MS/MS in time. This allows the two MS/MS spectra to be acquired within a few milliseconds of one another, and to be deconvoluted in post-processing. Furthermore, the method allows both fragmentation readouts to be obtained from the same precursor ion packet, thus reducing the inefficiencies imposed by separate CID and ETD acquisitions and the relatively poor precursor ion to fragment ion conversion typical of ETD. N-Linked glycopeptide ions ranging in molecular weight from 1.8 to 6.5 kDa were generated from four model glycoproteins that collectively encompassed paucimannosidic, high mannose, and complex types of N-glycosylation. In each case, IM-resolved CID and ETD events provided complete coverage of the glycan topology and peptide sequence coverages ranging from 48.4% (over 32 amino acid residues) to 85.7% (over eight amino acid residues). The potential of this method for large-scale glycoproteomic analysis is discussed.
