Recent technological developments for native mass spectrometry.

ABSTRACT: Native mass spectrometry (MS), the analysis of proteins and protein complexes from solutions that stabilize native solution structures, is a rapidly expanding area. There is strong evidence supporting the retention of proteins' native folds in the absence of solvent under the experimental timescales of MS experiments. Therefore, instrumentation has been developed to use gas-phase native-like protein ions to exploit the speed, sensitivity, and selectivity of mass spectrometry approaches to solve emerging problems in structural biology. This article reviews some of the recent advances and applications in gas-phase instrumentation for structural proteomics.

Developments in Mass Spectrometry for Glycosaminoglycan Analysis: A Review.

Project description:This review covers recent developments in glycosaminoglycan (GAG) analysis via mass spectrometry (MS). GAGs participate in a variety of biological functions, including cellular communication, wound healing, and anticoagulation, and are important targets for structural characterization. GAGs exhibit a diverse range of structural features due to the variety of O- and N-sulfation modifications and uronic acid C-5 epimerization that can occur, making their analysis a challenging target. Mass spectrometry approaches to the structure assignment of GAGs have been widely investigated, and new methodologies remain the subject of development. Advances in sample preparation, tandem MS techniques (MS/MS), online separations, and automated analysis software have advanced the field of GAG analysis. These recent developments have led to remarkable improvements in the precision and time efficiency for the structural characterization of GAGs.

Electrothermal supercharging in mass spectrometry and tandem mass spectrometry of native proteins.

Project description:Electrothermal supercharging of protein ions formed by electrospray ionization from buffered aqueous solutions results in significant increases to both the maximum and average charge states compared to native mass spectrometry in which ions are formed from the same solutions but with lower spray potentials. For eight of the nine proteins investigated, the maximum charge states of protonated ions formed from native solutions with electrothermal supercharging is greater than those obtained from conventional denaturing solutions consisting of water/methanol/acid, although the average charging is slightly lower owing to contributions of small populations of more folded low charge-state structures. Under these conditions, electrothermal supercharging is slightly less effective for anions than for cations. Equivalent sequence coverage (80%) is obtained with electron transfer dissociation of the same high charge-state ion of cytochrome c formed by electrothermal supercharging from native solutions and from denaturing solutions. Electrothermal supercharging should be advantageous for combining structural studies of proteins in native environments with mass spectrometers that have limited high m/z capabilities and for significantly improving tandem mass spectrometry performance for protein ions formed from solutions in which the molecules have native structures and activities.

Parsimonious Charge Deconvolution for Native Mass Spectrometry.

Project description:Charge deconvolution infers the mass from mass over charge (m/z) measurements in electrospray ionization mass spectra. When applied over a wide input m/z or broad target mass range, charge-deconvolution algorithms can produce artifacts, such as false masses at one-half or one-third of the correct mass. Indeed, a maximum entropy term in the objective function of MaxEnt, the most commonly used charge deconvolution algorithm, favors a deconvolved spectrum with many peaks over one with fewer peaks. Here we describe a new "parsimonious" charge deconvolution algorithm that produces fewer artifacts. The algorithm is especially well-suited to high-resolution native mass spectrometry of intact glycoproteins and protein complexes. Deconvolution of native mass spectra poses special challenges due to salt and small molecule adducts, multimers, wide mass ranges, and fewer and lower charge states. We demonstrate the performance of the new deconvolution algorithm on a range of samples. On the heavily glycosylated plasma properdin glycoprotein, the new algorithm could deconvolve monomer and dimer simultaneously and, when focused on the m/z range of the monomer, gave accurate and interpretable masses for glycoforms that had previously been analyzed manually using m/z peaks rather than deconvolved masses. On therapeutic antibodies, the new algorithm facilitated the analysis of extensions, truncations, and Fab glycosylation. The algorithm facilitates the use of native mass spectrometry for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of protein and protein assemblies.

Charging of Proteins in Native Mass Spectrometry.

Project description:Factors that influence the charging of protein ions formed by electrospray ionization from aqueous solutions in which proteins have native structures and function were investigated. Protein ions ranging in molecular weight from 12.3 to 79.7 kDa and pI values from 5.4 to 9.6 were formed from different solutions and reacted with volatile bases of gas-phase basicities higher than that of ammonia in the cell of a Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer. The charge-state distribution of cytochrome c ions formed from aqueous ammonium or potassium acetate is the same. Moreover, ions formed from these two solutions do not undergo proton transfer to 2-fluoropyridine, which is 8 kcal/mol more basic than ammonia. These results provide compelling evidence that proton transfer between ammonia and protein ions does not limit protein ion charge in native electrospray ionization. Both circular dichroism and ion mobility measurements indicate that there are differences in conformations of proteins in pure water and aqueous ammonium acetate, and these differences can account for the difference in the extent of charging and proton-transfer reactivities of protein ions formed from these solutions. The extent of proton transfer of the protein ions with higher gas-phase basicity bases trends with how closely the protein ions are charged to the value predicted by the Rayleigh limit for spherical water droplets approximately the same size as the proteins. These results indicate that droplet charge limits protein ion charge in native mass spectrometry and are consistent with these ions being formed by the charged residue mechanism.

Native Mass Spectrometry in Fragment-Based Drug Discovery.

Project description:The advent of native mass spectrometry (MS) in 1990 led to the development of new mass spectrometry instrumentation and methodologies for the analysis of noncovalent protein-ligand complexes. Native MS has matured to become a fast, simple, highly sensitive and automatable technique with well-established utility for fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD). Native MS has the capability to directly detect weak ligand binding to proteins, to determine stoichiometry, relative or absolute binding affinities and specificities. Native MS can be used to delineate ligand-binding sites, to elucidate mechanisms of cooperativity and to study the thermodynamics of binding. This review highlights key attributes of native MS for FBDD campaigns.

MMP qualitative and quantitative mass spectrometry

Project description:Methanococcus maripaludis is a methanogenic archaeon. Within its genome, there are two operons for membrane associated hydrogenases, eha and ehb. To investigate the regulation of ehb on the cell, an S40 mutant was constructed in such a way that a portion of the ehb operon was replaced by pac cassette in the wild type parental strain S2 (done by Whitman's group at the University of Georgia). The S40 and S2 strains were grown in 14N and 15N media with acetate separately. A biological replicate was made by switching the media. Mass spectrometry based quantitative proteomics were done on the mixtures to investigate the differences in expression patterns between S40 and S2. Keywords: isotope labeling mass spectrometry, quantitative proteomics

Expanding the mass range for UVPD-based native top-down mass spectrometry.

Project description:Native top-down mass spectrometry is emerging as a methodology that can be used to structurally investigate protein assemblies. To extend the possibilities of native top-down mass spectrometry to larger and more heterogeneous biomolecular assemblies, advances in both the mass analyzer and applied fragmentation techniques are still essential. Here, we explore ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) of protein assemblies on an Orbitrap with extended mass range, expanding its usage to large and heterogeneous macromolecular complexes, reaching masses above 1 million Da. We demonstrate that UVPD can lead not only to the ejection of intact subunits directly from such large intact complexes, but also to backbone fragmentation of these subunits, providing enough sequence information for subunit identification. The Orbitrap mass analyzer enables simultaneous monitoring of the precursor, the subunits, and the subunit fragments formed upon UVPD activation. While only partial sequence coverage of the subunits is observed, the UVPD data yields information about the localization of chromophores covalently attached to the subunits of the light harvesting complex B-phycoerythrin, extensive backbone fragmentation in a subunit of a CRISPR-Cas Csy (type I-F Cascade) complex, and sequence modifications in a virus-like proteinaceous nano-container. Through these multiple applications we demonstrate for the first time that UVPD based native top-down mass spectrometry is feasible for large and heterogeneous particles, including ribonucleoprotein complexes and MDa virus-like particles.

Standard Proteoforms and Their Complexes for Native Mass Spectrometry.

Project description:Native mass spectrometry (nMS) is a technique growing at the interface of analytical chemistry, structural biology, and proteomics that enables the detection and partial characterization of non-covalent protein assemblies. Currently, the standardization and dissemination of nMS is hampered by technical challenges associated with instrument operation, benchmarking, and optimization over time. Here, we provide a standard operating procedure for acquiring high-quality native mass spectra of 30-300 kDa proteins using an Orbitrap mass spectrometer. By describing reproducible sample preparation, loading, ionization, and nMS analysis, we forward two proteoforms and three complexes as possible standards to advance training and longitudinal assessment of instrument performance. Spectral data for five standards can guide assessment of instrument parameters, data production, and data analysis. By introducing this set of standards and protocols, we aim to help normalize native mass spectrometry practices across labs and provide benchmarks for reproducibility and high-quality data production in the years ahead.

Direct characterization of overproduced proteins by native mass spectrometry.

Project description:Proteins derived by recombinant technologies must be characterized to ensure quality, consistency and optimal production. These properties are usually assayed following purification procedures that are time consuming and labor intensive. Here, we describe a native mass spectrometry (MS) approach, direct-MS, for rapid characterization of intact overexpressed proteins immediately from crude samples. In this protocol, we discuss the multiple applications of the method and outline the necessary steps required for sample preparation, data collection and interpretation of results. We begin with the sample preparation workflows, which are relevant for recombinant proteins produced within bacteria, those analyzed straight from crude cell lysate, and secreted proteins generated in eukaryotic expression systems that are assessed directly from the growth culture medium. We continue with the mass acquisition steps that enable immediate definition of properties such as expressibility, solubility, assembly state, folding, overall structure, stability, post-translational modifications and associations with biomolecules. We demonstrate the applicability of the method by presenting the characterization of a computationally designed toxin-antitoxin heterodimer, activity and protein-interaction determination of a regulatory protein and detailed glycosylation analysis of a designed intact antibody. Overall, we describe a simple and rapid protocol that is relevant to both prokaryotic and eukaryotic expression systems and can be carried out on multiple mass spectrometers, such as Orbitrap and quadrupole time-of-flight (QTOF)-based mass spectroscopy platforms, that enable intact protein detection. The procedure takes from 30 min to several hours, from sample collection to data acquisition, depending on the depth of MS analysis.
