Light-induced orthogonal fragmentation of crosslinked peptides


ABSTRACT: Crosslinking mass spectrometry provides pivotal information on the structure and interaction of proteins. MS-cleavable crosslinkers are regarded as a cornerstone for the analysis of complex mixtures. Yet they fragment under similar conditions as peptides, leading to mixed fragmentation spectra of the crosslinker and peptide. This hampers selecting individual peptides for their independent identification. Here we introduce orthogonal cleavage, using ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) to increase crosslinker over peptide fragmentation. We designed and synthesized a crosslinker that can be cleaved at 213 nm in a commercial mass spectrometer configuration. In an analysis of crosslinked E. coli lysate, the crosslinker-to-peptide fragment intensity ratio increases from nearly 1 for a conventionally cleavable crosslinker to 5 for the UVPD cleavable crosslinker. This largely increased the sensitivity of selecting the individual peptides for MS3, even more so with an improved doublet detection algorithm.
