Identification of Poly Ethylene Glycol (PEG) and PEG-based Detergents Using Peptide Search Engines

ABSTRACT: Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is one of the most common polymer contaminations in MS samples. At present, the detection of PEG and other polymers relies largely on manual inspection of raw data which is laborious and frequently difficult due to sample complexity and retention characteristics of polymer species in reversed phase chromatography. We developed a new strategy for the automated identification of PEG molecules from MSMS data using protein identification algorithms in combination with a database containing “PEG-proteins”. Through definition of variable modifications, we extend the approach for the identification of commonly used PEG-based detergents. We exemplify the identification of different types of polymers by static nanoESI-MSMS analysis of pure detergent solutions and data analysis using Mascot. Analysis of LC-MSMS runs of a PEG contaminated sample by Mascot identified 806 PEG-spectra originating from four PEG species using a defined set of modifications covering PEG and common PEG-based detergents. Further characterization of the sample for unidentified PEG species using error tolerant and mass tolerant searches resulted in identification of 3409 and 3187 PEG related MSMS spectra, respectively. We further demonstrate the applicability of the strategy for Protein Pilot and MaxQuant.

Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) is one of the most common polymer contaminations in mass spectrometry (MS) samples. At present, the detection of PEG and other polymers relies largely on manual inspection of raw data, which is laborious and frequently difficult due to sample complexity and retention characteristics of polymer species in reversed-phase chromatography.

Project description:Sour passion fruit (Passiflora edulis Sims) has economic and social relevance and is an alternative crop mainly for family farming agriculture. The use of micropropagation by somatic embryogenesis offers scale-up clonal propagation with high phytosanitary quality. The aim of this work was to evaluate the influence of polyethylene glycol (PEG) on the maturation of somatic embryos associated with differential accumulation of proteins and changes in the endogenous polyamines (PAs) content during somatic embryogenesis of P. edulis ‘UENF Rio Dourado’. Maturation of somatic embryos was performed using embryogenic callus in MS culture medium with PEG 6% or without PEG (control). PEG 6% promoted the maturation of a significantly higher number of somatic embryos at globular and cotyledonary stages when compared to control treatment. The higher somatic embryo formation induced by PEG 6% was associated with an increase in endogenous contents of free spermine, a PA with an important role in the maturation process of somatic embryogenesis cultures. PEG also promoted a significantly higher content of putrescine and total free PAs at the end of maturation, which was relevant for the increase in the number of somatic embryos. Comparative proteomic analyses of PEG 6%/control revealed that PEG 6% treatment induced the up-accumulation of proteins related to the glycolytic process, generation of precursor metabolites energy, and response to light stimulus, we can highlight the enolase ENO1, triosephosphate isomerase (TPI), ribulose bisphophate carboxylase/oxygenase activase chloroplastic (RCA), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase GAPCP-1, chloroplastic (GAPCP-1), succinate dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] flavoprotein subunit1, mitochondrial (SDH1-1), pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 component subunit alpha, mitochondrial (IAR4), ATP synthase CF1 beta subunit (PB), malate dehydrogenase [NADP], chloroplastic (AT5G58330) and chlorophyll a-b binding protein 21, chloroplastic (LHB1B1), and the down-accumulated proteins related mainly to the cellular metabolic process with proteins such as NADP-dependent malic enzyme (NADP-ME4), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase 2 (PPC1), UDP-glucose 6-dehydrogenase 1 and 4 (UGD2) and sucrose synthase 2 isoform X2 (SSA) and cell division cycle protein 48 homolog (ATCDC48B). The use of PEG induced thematuration and development of somatic embryos of P. edulis Sims ‘UENF Rio Dourado’ by the differential accumulation of proteins and modulation of endogenous contents of PAs
