Coupling high-field asymmetric ion mobility spectrometry with capillary electrophoresis-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry improves protein identifications in bottom-up proteomic analysis of low nanogram samples

ABSTRACT: In this work, we pioneered the assessment of coupling high-field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS) with ultra-sensitive capillary electrophoresis hyphenated with tandem mass spectrometry (CE-MS/MS) to achieve deeper proteome coverage of low nanogram amounts of digested cell lysates. An internal stepping strategy using three or four compensation voltages (CVs) per analytical run with varied cycle times was tested to determine optimal FAIMS settings and MS parameters for the CE-FAIMS-MS/MS method. The optimized method applied to bottom-up proteomic analysis of 1 ng HeLa protein digest standard identified 1,314±30 proteins, 4,829±200 peptide groups, and 7,577±163 peptide spectrum matches (PSMs) corresponding to a 16%, 25%, and 22% increase, respectively, over CE-MS/MS alone, without FAIMS. Furthermore, the percentage of acquired MS/MS spectra that resulted in PSMs increased nearly 2-fold with CE-FAIMS-MS/MS. Our results also identified from 1 ng HeLa protein digest without any prior enrichment, 76±9 phosphopeptides, 18% of which were multiphosphorylated. These results represent a 46% increase in phosphopeptide identifications over the control experiments without FAIMS yielding 2.5-fold more multiphosphorylated peptides.

Project description:In the light of the ongoing single-cell revolution, scientific disciplines are combining forces with the ultimate goal to retrieve as much relevant data as possible from trace amounts of biological material. For single cell proteomics, this implies optimizing the entire workflow from initial cell isolation down to sample preparation, LC separation, MS/MS data acquisition and data analysis. To demonstrate the potential for single cell and limited sample proteomics, we report on a series of benchmarking experiments where we combine LC separation on a new generation of micro pillar array columns with state-of-the-art Orbitrap MS/MS detection and FAIMS. As compared to the currently commercially available pillar array columns, this dedicated limited sample column has a reduced cross section (factor of 2) and micro pillar dimensions that have been further downscaled (also by a factor of 2; 2.5 µm instead of 5 µm diameter), resulting in improved chromatography at reduced void times. A dilution series ranging from 5 to 0.05 ng/µL was prepared using trace amounts of PEG in the sample solvent to reduce adsorptive effects in the autosampler vial, sample stability up to 24h after dilution was demonstrated. Comparative processing of the MS/MS data with different database search algorithms (with and without second search feature activated and with and without rescoring based on fragmentation pattern prediction) pointed out the benefits of using Sequest HT together with INFERYS when analyzing samples at a concentration below 1 ng/µL. On average (data from quadruplicate runs), we were able to successfully identify 2855 unique protein groups from just 1 ng of HeLa lysate and this using a 60 min non-linear LC solvent gradient at a flow rate of 250 nL/min, hereby increasing detection sensitivity as compared to a previous contribution by a factor well above 10 (2436 proteins identified from 10 ng of HeLa lysate in 2019). By successfully identifying 1486 and 2210 proteins (average values, quadruplicates) from as little as 250 and 500 pg of HeLa lysate respectively, we demonstrate outstanding sensitivity with great promise for use in limited sample proteomics workflows.
