DDA-imaging with structural identification of lipid molecules on an Orbitrap Velos Pro mass spectrometer.

ABSTRACT: Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) is a useful technique for visualizing the spatial distribution of lipid molecules in tissues. Nevertheless, the use of MSI to investigate local lipid metabolic hallmarks has until recently been hampered by a lack of adequate technology that supports confident lipid identification. This limitation was recently mitigated by the development of DDA-imaging technology where high-resolution MSI is combined with parallel acquisition of lipid tandem MS² spectra on a hybrid ion trap-Orbitrap Elite mass spectrometer featuring a resolving power of 240,000 and a scan time of 1 s. Here, we report the key tenets related to successful transfer of the DDA-imaging technology onto an Orbitrap Velos Pro instrument featuring a resolving power of 120,000 and a scan time of 2 s. Through meticulous performance assessments and method optimization, we tuned the DDA-imaging method to be able to confidently identify 73 molecular lipid species in mouse brain sections and demonstrate that the performance of the technology is comparable with DDA-imaging on the Orbitrap Elite. Altogether, our work shows that DDA-imaging on the Orbitrap Velos Pro instrument can serve as a robust workhorse for lipid imaging in routine applications.

Project description:There is an immediate need for improved methods to systematically and precisely quantify large sets of peptides in complex biological samples. To date protein quantification in biological samples has been routinely performed on triple quadrupole instruments operated in selected reaction monitoring mode (SRM), and two major challenges remain. Firstly, the number of peptides to be included in one survey experiment needs to be increased to routinely reach several hundreds, and secondly, the degree of selectivity should be improved so as to reliably discriminate the targeted analytes from background interferences. High resolution and accurate mass (HR/AM) analysis on the recently developed Q-Exactive mass spectrometer can potentially address these issues. This instrument presents a unique configuration: it is constituted of an orbitrap mass analyzer equipped with a quadrupole mass filter as the front-end for precursor ion mass selection. This configuration enables new quantitative methods based on HR/AM measurements, including targeted analysis in MS mode (single ion monitoring) and in MS/MS mode (parallel reaction monitoring). The ability of the quadrupole to select a restricted m/z range allows one to overcome the dynamic range limitations associated with trapping devices, and the MS/MS mode provides an additional stage of selectivity. When applied to targeted protein quantification in urine samples and benchmarked with the reference SRM technique, the quadrupole-orbitrap instrument exhibits similar or better performance in terms of selectivity, dynamic range, and sensitivity. This high performance is further enhanced by leveraging the multiplexing capability of the instrument to design novel acquisition methods and apply them to large targeted proteomic studies for the first time, as demonstrated on 770 tryptic yeast peptides analyzed in one 60-min experiment. The increased quality of quadrupole-orbitrap data has the potential to improve existing protein quantification methods in complex samples and address the pressing demand of systems biology or biomarker evaluation studies.
