LIFE SCIENCES IN SPACE RESEARCH 2024; 41:110-118. [PMID: 38670637 DOI: 10.1016/j.lssr.2024.02.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 02/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024]
Abstract
Over the course of more than a decade, space biology investigations have consistently indicated that cell wall remodeling occurs in a variety of spaceflight-grown plants. Here, we describe a mass spectrometric method to study the fundamental composition of xyloglucan, the most abundant hemicellulose in dicot cell walls, in space-grown plants. Four representative Arabidopsis root samples, from a previously conducted spaceflight experiment - Advanced Plant EXperiment - 04 (APEX-04), were used to investigate changes in xyloglucan oligosaccharides abundances in spaceflight-grown plants compared to ground controls. In situ localized enzymatic digestions and surface sampling mass spectrometry analysis provided spatial resolution of the changes in xyloglucan oligosaccharides abundances. Overall, the results showed that oligosaccharide XXLG/XLXG and XXFG branching patterns were more abundant in the lateral roots of spaceflight-grown plants, while XXXG, XLFG, and XLFG/XLFG were more abundant in the lateral roots of ground control plants. In the primary roots, XXFG had a higher abundance in ground controls than in spaceflight plants. This methodology of analyzing the basic components of the cell wall in this paper highlights two important findings. First, that are differences in the composition of xyloglucan oligosaccharides in spaceflight root cell walls compared to ground controls and, second, most of these differences are observed in the lateral roots. Thus, the methodology described in this paper provides insights into spaceflight cell wall modifications for future investigations.

Development of nanomaterial enabling highly sensitive surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry peptide analysis. RAPID COMMUNICATIONS IN MASS SPECTROMETRY : RCM 2023; 37:e9476. [PMID: 36656736 DOI: 10.1002/rcm.9476] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Revised: 01/14/2023] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
RATIONALE Surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (SALDI-MS) is an approach derived from matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI)-MS which overcomes the drawbacks associated with the use of organic matrices required to co-crystallize with the analytes. Indeed, nanomaterials commonly used in SALDI-MS as inert surfaces to promote desorption/ionization (D/I) ensure straightforward direct deposition of samples while providing mass spectra with ions only related to the compound of interest. The objective of this study was to develop a novel SALDI-MS approach based on steel plates that are surfaces very rapidly and easily tuned to perform the most efficient peptide detection as possible. To compare the SALDI efficacy of such metal substrates, D/I efficiency and deposit homogeneity were evaluated according to steel plate fabrication processes. METHODS The studied surfaces were nanostructured steel plates that were chemically modified by perfluorosilane and textured according to different frequencies and laser writing powers. The capacity of each tested 100 surfaces was demonstrated by comparative analyses of a mixture of standard peptides (m/z 600-3000) performed with a MALDI-TOF instrument enabling MALDI, SALDI and imaging experiments. RESULTS A peptide mix was used to screen the different surfaces depending on their D/I efficiency and their ability to ensure homogeneous deposit of the samples. For that purpose, deposition homogeneity was visualized owing to reconstructed ionic images from all protonated or sodiated ions of the 10 peptides constituting the standard mix. CONCLUSIONS Seven surfaces were then selected satisfying the required D/I efficiency and deposit homogeneity criteria. Results obtained with these optimal surfaces were then compared with those recorded by MALDI-MS analyses used as references.

Abstract
Glycosylation is one of the most significant and abundant posttranslational modifications in mammalian cells. It mediates a wide range of biofunctions, including cell adhesion, cell communication, immune cell trafficking, and protein stability. Also, aberrant glycosylation has been associated with various diseases such as diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, inflammation, immune deficiencies, congenital disorders, and cancers. The alterations in the distributions of glycan and glycopeptide isomers are involved in the development and progression of several human diseases. However, the microheterogeneity of glycosylation brings a great challenge to glycomic and glycoproteomic analysis, including the characterization of isomers. Over several decades, different methods and approaches have been developed to facilitate the characterization of glycan and glycopeptide isomers. Mass spectrometry (MS) has been a powerful tool utilized for glycomic and glycoproteomic isomeric analysis due to its high sensitivity and rich structural information using different fragmentation techniques. However, a comprehensive characterization of glycan and glycopeptide isomers remains a challenge when utilizing MS alone. Therefore, various separation methods, including liquid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, and ion mobility, were developed to resolve glycan and glycopeptide isomers before MS. These separation techniques were coupled to MS for a better identification and quantitation of glycan and glycopeptide isomers. Additionally, bioinformatic tools are essential for the automated processing of glycan and glycopeptide isomeric data to facilitate isomeric studies in biological cohorts. Here in this review, we discuss commonly employed MS-based techniques, separation hyphenated MS methods, and software, facilitating the separation, identification, and quantitation of glycan and glycopeptide isomers.

Abstract
Neurological diseases affect millions of peopleochemistryorldwide and are continuously increasing due to the globe's aging population. Such diseases affect the nervous system and are characterized by a progressive decline in brain function and progressive cognitive impairment, decreasing the quality of life for those with the disease as well as for their families and loved ones. The increased burden of nervous system diseases demands a deeper insight into the biomolecular mechanisms at work during disease development in order to improve clinical diagnosis and drug design. Recently, evidence has related glycosylation to nervous system diseases. Glycosylation is a vital post-translational modification that mediates many biological functions, and aberrant glycosylation has been associated with a variety of diseases. Thus, the investigation of glycosylation in neurological diseases could provide novel biomarkers and information for disease pathology. During the last decades, many techniques have been developed for facilitation of reliable and efficient glycomic analysis. Among these, mass spectrometry (MS) is considered the most powerful tool for glycan analysis due to its high resolution, high sensitivity, and the ability to acquire adequate structural information for glycan identification. Along with MS, a variety of approaches and strategies are employed to enhance the MS-based identification and quantitation of glycans in neurological samples. Here, we review the advanced glycomic tools used in nervous system disease studies, including separation techniques prior to MS, fragmentation techniques in MS, and corresponding strategies. The glycan markers in common clinical nervous system diseases discovered by utilizing such MS-based glycomic tools are also summarized and discussed.

Abstract
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a widespread psychiatric injury that develops serious life-threatening symptoms like substance abuse, severe depression, cognitive impairments, and persistent anxiety. However, the mechanisms of post-traumatic stress injury in brain are poorly understood due to the lack of practical methods to reveal biochemical alterations in various brain regions affected by this type of injury. Here, we introduce a novel method that provides quantitative results from Raman maps in the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus (PVT) region. By means of this approach, we have shown a lipidome comparison in PVT regions of control and PTSD rat brains. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry was also employed for validation of the Raman results. Lipid alterations can reveal invaluable information regarding the PTSD mechanisms in affected regions of brain. We have showed that the concentration of cholesterol, cholesteryl palmitate, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylethanolamine, sphingomyelin, ganglioside, glyceryl tripalmitate and sulfatide changes in the PVT region of PTSD compared to control rats. A higher concentration of cholesterol suggests a higher level of corticosterone in the brain. Moreover, concentration changes of phospholipids and sphingolipids suggest the alteration of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) which is associated with inflammatory processes in the brain. Our results have broadened the understanding of biomolecular mechanisms for PTSD in the PVT region of the brain. This is the first report regarding the application of Raman spectroscopy for PTSD studies. This method has a wide spectrum of applications and can be applied to various other brain related disorders or other regions of the brain.

Abstract
N-glycans from glycoproteins are complex, branched structures whose structural determination presents many analytical problems. Mass spectrometry, usually conducted in positive ion mode, often requires extensive sample manipulation, usually by derivatization such as permethylation, to provide the necessary structure-revealing fragment ions. The newer but, so far, lesser used negative ion techniques, on the contrary, provide a wealth of structural information not present in positive ion spectra that greatly simplify the analysis of these compounds and can usually be conducted without the need for derivatization. This review describes the use of negative ion mass spectrometry for the structural analysis of N-linked glycans and emphasises the many advantages that can be gained by this mode of operation. Biosynthesis and structures of the compounds are described followed by methods for release of the glycans from the protein. Methods for ionization are discussed with emphasis on matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) and methods for producing negative ions from neutral compounds. Acidic glycans naturally give deprotonated species under most ionization conditions. Fragmentation of negative ions is discussed next with particular reference to those ions that are diagnostic for specific features such as the branching topology of the glycans and substitution positions of moieties such as fucose and sulfate, features that are often difficult to identify easily by conventional techniques such as positive ion fragmentation and exoglycosidase digestions. The advantages of negative over positive ions for this structural work are emphasised with an example of a series of glycans where all other methods failed to produce a structure. Fragmentation of derivatized glycans is discussed next, both with respect to derivatives at the reducing terminus of the molecules, and to methods for neutralization of the acidic groups on sialic acids to both stabilize them for MALDI analysis and to produce the diagnostic fragments seen with the neutral glycans. The use of ion mobility, combined with conventional mass spectrometry is described with emphasis on its use to extract clean glycan spectra both before and after fragmentation, to separate isomers and its use to extract additional information from separated fragment ions. A section on applications follows with examples of the identification of novel structures from lower organisms and tables listing the use of negative ions for structural identification of specific glycoproteins, glycans from viruses and uses in the biopharmaceutical industry and in medicine. The review concludes with a summary of the advantages and disadvantages of the technique. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Mass Spec Rev.

Abstract
Polymyxin antibiotics are a last-line treatment for multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. However, the emergence of colistin resistance, including the spread of mobile mcr genes, necessitates the development of improved diagnostics for the detection of colistin-resistant organisms in hospital settings. The recently developed MALDIxin test enables detection of colistin resistance by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) in less than 15 min but is not optimized for the mass spectrometers commonly found in clinical microbiology laboratories. In this study, we adapted the MALDIxin test for the MALDI Biotyper Sirius MALDI-TOF MS system (Bruker Daltonics). We optimized the sample preparation protocol by using a set of 6 mobile colistin resistance (MCR) protein-expressing Escherichia coli clones and validated the assay with a collection of 40 E. coli clinical isolates, including 19 confirmed MCR protein producers, 12 colistin-resistant isolates that tested negative for commonly encountered mcr genes (i.e., likely chromosomally resistant isolates), and 9 polymyxin-susceptible isolates. We calculated polymyxin resistance ratio (PRR) values from the acquired spectra; PRR values of 0, indicating polymyxin susceptibility, were obtained for all colistin-susceptible E. coli isolates, whereas positive PRR values, indicating resistance to polymyxins, were obtained for all resistant strains, independent of the genetic basis of resistance. Thus, we report a preliminary feasibility study showing that an optimized version of the MALDIxin test adapted for the routine MALDI Biotyper Sirius system provides an unbiased, fast, reliable, cost-effective, and high-throughput way of detecting colistin resistance in clinical E. coli isolates.

Abstract
RG-I and AGP, but not XG, are associated to the building of the peculiar mechanical properties of tension wood. Hardwood trees produce tension wood (TW) with specific mechanical properties to cope with environmental cues. Poplar TW fibers have an additional cell wall layer, the G-layer responsible for TW mechanical properties. We investigated, in two poplar hybrid species, the molecules potentially involved in the building of TW mechanical properties. First, we evaluated the distribution of the different classes of non-cellulosic polysaccharides during xylem fiber differentiation, using immunolocalization. In parallel, G-layers were isolated and their polysaccharide composition determined. These complementary approaches provided information on the occurrence of non-cellulosic polysaccharides during G-fiber differentiation. We found no evidence of the presence of xyloglucan (XG) in poplar G-layers, whereas arabinogalactan proteins (AGP) and rhamnogalacturonan type I pectins (RG-I) were abundant, with an apparent progressive loss of RG-I side chains during G-layer maturation. Similarly, the intensity of immunolabeling signals specific for glucomannans and glucuronoxylans varies during G-layer maturation. RG-I and AGP are best candidate matrix components to be responsible for TW mechanical properties.

Abstract
Analysis of carbohydrates based on matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) is still challenging and researchers have been devoting themselves to efficient matrices discovery. In the present study, the design, synthesis, qualitative and quantitative performance of non-derivative ionic liquid matrices (ILMs) were reported. DHB/N-methylaniline (N-MA) and DHB/N-ethylaniline (N-EA), performing best for carbohydrate detection, have been screened out. The limit of detection for oligosaccharide provided by DHB/N-MA and DHB/N-EA were as low as 10 fmol. DHB/N-MA and DHB/N-EA showed significantly higher ion generation efficiency than DHB. The comparison of capacity to probe polysaccharide between these two ILMs and DHB also revealed their powerful potential. Their outstanding performance were probably due to lower proton affinities and stronger UV absorption at λ = 355 nm. What is more, taking DHB/N-MA as an example, quantitative analysis of fructo-oligosaccharide mixtures extracted and identified from rice noodles has been accomplished sensitively using an internal standard method. Overall, DHB/N-MA and DHB/N-EA exhibited excellent performance and might be significant sources as the carbohydrate matrices.

Abstract
In this work, the capability of newly developed hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) coupled with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometric imaging (MALDI-MSI) platform for quantitative analysis of N-glycans has been demonstrated. As a proof-of-principle experiment, heavy and light stable-isotope labeled hydrazide reagents labeled maltodextrin ladder were used to demonstrate the feasibility of the HILIC-MALDI-MSI platform for reliable quantitative analysis of N-glycans. MALDI-MSI analysis by an Orbitrap mass spectrometer enabled high-resolution and high-sensitivity detection of N-glycans eluted from HILIC column, allowing the re-construction of LC chromatograms as well as accurate mass measurements for structural inference. MALDI-MSI analysis of the collected LC traces showed that the chromatographic resolution was preserved. The N-glycans released from human serum was used to demonstrate the utility of this novel platform in quantitative analysis of N-glycans from a complex sample. Benefiting from the minimized ion suppression provided by HILIC separation, comparison between MALDI-MS and the newly developed platform HILIC-MALDI-MSI revealed that HILIC-MALDI-MSI provided higher N-glycan coverage as well as better quantitation accuracy in the quantitative analysis of N-glycans released from human serum. Graphical abstract Reconstructed chromatograms based on HILIC-MALDI-MSI results of heavy and light labeled maltodextrin enabling quantitative glycan analysis.

Abstract
Glycosylation is one of the most common and essential protein modifications. Glycans conjugated to biomolecules modulate the function of such molecules through both direct recognition of glycan structures and indirect mechanisms that involve the control of protein turnover rates, stability, and conformation. The biological attributes of glycans in numerous biological processes and implications in a number of diseases highlight the necessity for comprehensive characterization of protein glycosylation. This chapter reviews cutting-edge methods and tools developed to facilitate quantitative glycomics. This chapter highlights the different methods employed for the release and purification of glycans from biological samples. The most effective labeling methods developed for sensitive quantitative glycomics are also described and discussed. The chromatographic approaches that have been used effectively in glycomics are also highlighted.

Abstract
Pregnancy requires partial suppression of the immune system to ensure maternal-foetal tolerance. Protein glycosylation, and especially terminal sialic acid linkages, are of prime importance in regulating the pro- and anti-inflammatory immune responses. However, little is known about pregnancy-associated changes of the serum N-glycome and sialic acid linkages. Using a combination of recently developed methods, i.e. derivatisation that allows the distinction between α2,3- and α2,6-linked sialic acids by high-throughput MALDI-TOF-MS and software-assisted data processing, we analysed the serum N-glycome of a cohort of 29 healthy women at 6 time points during and after pregnancy. A total of 77 N-glycans were followed over time, confirming in part previous findings while also revealing novel associations (e.g. an increase of FA2BG1S1(6), FA2G1S1(6) and A2BG2S2(6) with delivery). From the individual glycans we calculated 42 derived traits. With these, an increase during pregnancy and decrease after delivery was observed for both α2,3- and α2,6-linked sialylation. Additionally, a difference in the recovery speed after delivery was observed for α2,3- and α2,6-linked sialylation of triantennary glycans. In conclusion, our new high-throughput workflow allowed the identification of novel plasma glycosylation changes with pregnancy.

Abstract
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) ion formation mechanisms were investigated by comparison of isomers of dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB). These exhibit substantially different MALDI performance, the basis for which was not previously understood. Luminescence decay curves are used here to estimate excited electronic state properties relevant for the coupled chemical and physical dynamics (CPCD) model. With these estimates, the CPCD predictions for relative total ion and analyte ion yields are in good agreement with the data for the DHB isomers. Predictions of a thermal equilibrium model were also compared and found to be incompatible with the data. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract
Fifty-one reagents (37 hydrazides and 14 hydrazines) were examined to determine if they could function as reactive matrices for the detection of steroids with carbonyl groups in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS). Among these reagents, 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid hydrazide reacted most efficiently with steroids with carbonyl groups, allowing detection of them at the 1pmol level. Results from accurate mass measurement with a JMS-S3000 Spiral-TOF suggested that the ion peaks corresponding to the protonated fragment of a hydrazone were observed, in addition to the protonated molecular peaks of the resulting hydrazones ([M(D)+H](+)) and their sodium adduct ([M(D)+Na](+)). 3-Hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid hydrazide also could detect cortisol (1.93ng) spiked in a human serum certified reference material, as well as cortisone and cortisol in a human saliva sample collected in the morning. Using a combination of 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid hydrazide and α- cyano-4-hydroxycinammic acid (CHCA) (3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid hydrazide:CHCA=4:1, v/v), even cortisone and cortisol in a human saliva sample collected in the afternoon, when levels are typically low, could be detected effectively.

Abstract
2,5-Dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) is one of the most widely used and studied matrix compounds in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry. However, the influence of ageing of the DHB solution on the MALDI mass spectra has not been yet systematically studied. In this work, the possible changes occurring in the acidified acetonitrile/water solution of the MALDI matrix compound DHB during 1-year usage period have been monitored with MALDI-Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer (MALDI-FT-ICR-MS) and attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FT-IR) spectroscopy. No significant ageing products have been detected. The ability of the aged DHB solution to act as a MALDI matrix was tested with two materials widely used in art and conservation - bone glue (a proteinaceous material) and shellac resin (a resinous material) - and good results were obtained. A number of peaks in the mass spectra measured from the DHB solution were identified, which can be used for internal calibration of the mass axis.

Abstract
During the last decade, enormous progress regarding knowledge about composition and properties of human milk (HM) has been made. Besides nutrition, the three macro-nutrients: proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates combine a large variety of properties and functions. Especially, complex oligosaccharides emerge as important dietary factors during early life with multiple functions. The characterization of these HM oligosaccharides (HMOS) within the total carbohydrate fraction is prerequisite to understand the relationship between milk composition and biological effects. Therefore, extended studies of large donor cohorts and thus, new high-throughput glycoanalytical methods are needed. The developed method comprises sample preparation, as well as analysis of HMOS by multiplexed CGE with LIF detection (xCGE-LIF). Via a respective database the generated "fingerprints" (normalized electropherograms) could be used for structural elucidation of HMOS. The method was tested on HM samples from five different donors, partly sampled as a series of lactation time points. HMOS could be easily identified and quantified. Consequently, secretor and Lewis status of the donors could be determined, milk typing could be performed and quantitative changes could be monitored along lactation time course. The developed xCGE-LIF based "real" high-throughput HMOS analysis method enables qualitative and quantitative high-performance profiling of the total carbohydrate fraction composition of large sets of samples.

Abstract
To prepare and explore the structure of native hemicellulose from tomato, extraction of the natively acetylated polysaccharides was achieved from partially depectinated cell walls by DMSO doped with LiCl. DEAE anion exchange chromatography of the LiCl-DMSO extract allowed the removal of residual acidic pectin and the isolation of acetylated glucuronoxylan. The hemicellulose neutral fraction from the anion exchanger was fractionated by size exclusion chromatography into xyloglucan (XyG) and galactoglucomannan (GgM) either as single major constituents or as mixtures of both. Residual hemicellulose in the cell wall was extracted by 4.0 M and not 1.0 M KOH. The fine structure of all LiCl-DMSO fractions and alkali extracts was assessed by coupling β-glucanase, β-mannanase and β-xylanase enzymatic degradations to the analysis of the resulting fragments by HPAEC and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. This approach revealed substitutions in part of the GgM fractions by pentose residues, presumably arabinose and/or xylose occurring in highly substituted block domains. It also demonstrated a different glucanase hydrolysis profile from 4.0 M KOH compared to LiCl-DMSO soluble fractions. The present extraction and purification scheme allow the recovery of several populations of acetylated hemicellulose families which emphasize the structural diversity and complexity of these polysaccharides.

Abstract
The electrical conductivity of the matrix crystal might be a new factor to enhance matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) sensitivity. In MALDI-MS, several compounds are used as a standard matrix. Utilization of such compounds is based on an a posteriori approach, but there is no theoretical guidance for selecting a matrix. In an attempt to further understand performance in MALDI-MS, we utilized peptide detection for random screening of a chemical library (12,383 compounds) for compounds with matrix functions in MALDI-MS. A lot of thiophene compounds were found to be a matrix, in which 2-[5-(2,4-dichlorobenzoyl)-2-thienyl] acetic acid (DCBTA) provided an important clue to measure the electrical conductivity of the matrix crystal, because the structure of DCBTA is analogous to conductive polymers and organic solar cells. Most of the crystals of standard matrices, such as alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA), 3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxycinnamic acid [sinapinic acid, (SA)], and DCBTA showed electrical conductivity, whereas the conductivity of crystal was not observed in 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,5-DHB). On the other hand, super-DHB using 2-hydroxy-5-methoxybenzoic acid [5-methoxysalicylic acid, (MSA)] as an additive to 2,5-DHB, improved the electrical conductivity of the crystal, that followed the enhancement of peak intensity in MS spectrum. These observations might indicate that the electrical conductivity of matrix crystals is a key consideration in obtaining efficient MALDI performance.

Abstract
Cell wall composition, pectin, and hemicellulose fine structure variation were assessed in peach and related genotypes with contrasted texture and fruit shape. Cell walls were prepared from four commercial peaches, eight genotypes from the Jalousia × Fantasia peach cross, and six genotypes from the Earlygold peach × Texas almond cross. Sugar composition was determined chemically while fine structure of homogalacturonan pectin and xyloglucan hemicellulose were assessed by coupling pectin lyase and glucanase degradation, respectively, with MALDI-TOF MS analysis of the degradation products. The results indicate clear compositional and structural differences between the parents and their related genotypes on the basis of pectin versus cellulose/hemicellulose content and on the fine structure of homogalacturonan and xyloglucan. A relation between methyl- and acetyl-esterification of pectin with fruit shape is revealed in the Fantasia × Jalousia peach genotypes.

Abstract
An aqueous acetonitrile solution containing oligosaccharides (maltopentaose and polysaccharides) and a matrix (2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid) was frozen at 100 K for mass analysis using ultraviolet matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (UV-MALDI). Compared with conventional UV-MALDI (i.e., using a dry analyte/matrix mixture), a frozen solution generates more oligosaccharide ions and less fragments from postsource decay. Furthermore, the ion signal is long-lasting, and the analyte distribution features enhanced homogeneity. The ion generation efficiency for this procedure is 20-30 times greater than that for a conventional dried mixture. Interestingly, the percentages for maltopentaose fragmentation from postsource decay for the frozen samples are close to zero (<2%), as compared with the 17% and 40% values found for dried samples at low and high laser fluences, respectively. Comparisons with other UV matrixes (α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid and sinapinic acid) and ionic liquids (2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid + pyridine and α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid + butylamine) were investigated, and possible mechanisms are discussed.

Abstract
Compared to other analytical methods, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) presents several unique advantages for the structural characterization of degradation products of carbohydrates. Our final goal is to implement this technique as a high-throughput platform, with the aim of exploring natural bio-diversity to discover new carbohydrate depolymerizing enzymes. In this approach, a variety of carbohydrates will be used as enzymes substrates and MALDI-MS will be employed to monitor the oligosaccharides produced. One drawback of MALDI, however, is that the choice of the matrix is largely dependent on the chemical properties of the analyte. In this context, our objective in the present work was to find the smallest set of MALDI matrices able to detect chemically heterogeneous oligosaccharides. This was done through the performance evaluation of more than 40 MALDI matrices preparations. Homogeneity of analyte-matrix deposits was considered as a critical feature, especially since the final objective is to fully automate the analyses. Evaluation of the matrices was done by means of a rigorous statistical approach. Amongst all tested compounds, our work proposes the use of the DHB/DMA ionic matrix as the most generic matrix, for rapid detection of a variety of polysaccharides including neutral, anionic, methylated, sulfated, and acetylated compounds. The selected matrices were then used to screen crude bacterial incubation media for the detection of enzymatic degradation products.

Abstract
In this work, we give the report of significant detection sensitivity improvement of electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectra of polysaccharides by adding various ionic liquid compounds into samples. Mass spectra obtained were greatly simplified and appeared to be similar to spectra from matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization due to the narrow charge number distribution. Mass spectra of polysaccharides with the attachment of either anion or cation of ionic liquid compounds were observed. No protonated or deprotonated polysaccharide ions were detected when ionic liquid compounds were added into samples. Little alkali-attached polysaccharide ions were observed. Ionic liquid-assisted ESI (ILA-ESI) mass spectrometry has significantly improved the detection sensitivity of large neutral polysaccharide compounds.

Abstract
The relationships between ion yield(s) as a function of desorption alone and (or) ionization was investigated using two model systems. In the first model system, a carbohydrate (2,3,6-tri-O-methyl-β-cyclodextrin, TMBCD), which could be directly laser desorbed, was analyzed with and without a silicon-based heat sink compound (HSC). The HSC allowed heat to pass through but obstructed the flow of charge. In the second model system, a peptide (substance P), which ccould not be laser desorbed, was analyzed under similar conditions. The ion yield of TMBCD under either system of heat conductivity was similar, whereas the ion yield of the peptide with the heat sink was negligible. Compounds that are predominately cationized either in the gas phase or preformed in solution give an ion yield that is not dependent upon the surface conditions, whereas compounds that are not ordinarily cationized are affected by the emission of electrons from the metal surface.

Abstract
One of the most prominent polymer group applied for drug conjugation is poly(ethylene) glycol (PEG). Since drug production is subjected to strict restrictions on the part of the FDA and EMEA, also PEG has to be characterized accurately. Particularly its molecular mass distribution (MMD) and polydispersity can result in unrequested inhomogeneous final products. Therefore evaluation of PEG before applying it to drug conjugation is essential. In this study a new analytical method for size and molecular mass determination based on electrophoretic mobility called GEMMA is used to characterize linear PEGs with two differing terminating functional groups. To confirm the data acquired by GEMMA a second, well-established method for molecular weight determination, MALDI-TOF MS (matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry), was applied. Utilizing these two analytical approaches four monomethoxylated PEG-succinimidyl succinate (mPEG-SS) derivatives were investigated in terms of polydispersity and MMD. Although based on differing principles, both analytical methods yield comparable results. All obtained MMD maxima for the mPEG-SS batches lie within the company stated specifications, MMD+/-10% (based on MALDI-TOF MS data). For mPEG-SS 2K a polydispersity of 1.02 and for mPEG-SS 5K, 10K and 20K a polydispersity of 1.01 were determined from GEMMA as well as from MALDI-TOF MS data and are in agreement with the company's data (based on GPC data), namely 1.05-1.10.

Abstract
Unambiguous identification of mycotoxin-producing fungal species as Fusarium is of great relevance to agriculture and the food-producing industry as well as in medicine. Protein profiles of intact fungal spores, such as Penicillium, Aspergillus and Trichoderma, derived from matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) were shown to provide a rapid and straightforward method for species identification and characterization. In this study, we applied this approach to five different Fusarium spp. strains which are known to affect the growth of different grain plants. To obtain a suitable MALDI matrix system and sample preparation method, thin-layer, dried-droplet and sandwich methods and several MALDI matrices, namely CHCA, DHB, FA, SA and THAP dissolved in various solvent mixtures (organic solvents such as ACN, MeOH, EtOH and iPrOH and for the aqueous phase water and 0.1% TFA), were evaluated in terms of mass spectrometric pattern and signal intensities. The most significant peptide/protein profiles were obtained with 10 mg ferulic acid (FA) in 1 mL ACN/0.1% TFA (7:3, v/v) used as matrix system. Mixing the spores with the matrix solution directly on the MALDI target (dried-droplet technique) resulted in an evenly distributed spores/matrix crystal layer, yielding highly reproducible peptide/protein profiles from the spore surfaces. Numerous abundant ions throughout the investigated m/z range (m/z 1500-15 000) could be detected. Differences in the obtained mass spectral patterns allowed the differentiation of spores of various Fusarium species.

Abstract
The use of plants as production hosts for recombinant glycoproteins, which is rapidly developing, requires methods for fast and reliable analysis of plant N-linked glycans. This study describes a simple small-scale method for the preparation of N-linked glycans from soluble plant protein and analysis thereof by matrix assisted laser desorption ionisation time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Concentration and protease digestion of plant protein as well as deglycosylation is carried out in a single concentrator unit without the need for intermittent purification to minimize adsorptive loss and to facilitate handling. Plant protein is concentrated in a unit with a 5kDa cutoff, and after buffer exchange, pepsin (EC 3.4.23.1) digestion is carried out in the concentrator overnight to obtain peptides as substrates for deglycosylation. Deglycosylation is carried out with peptide-N-glycosidase A (PNGase A; EC 3.5.1.52) for 24h. Released N-glycans are purified using reverse-phase and cation exchange chromatography micro-columns for removal of peptides and desalting. N-Glycans are directly analyzed by MALDI-TOF MS without derivatization. The method for isolation of N-glycans is compatible with secreted proteins from cell culture supernatant as well as with soluble protein extracts from leaf tissue. As little as 5mug of plant glycoprotein is sufficient for N-glycan preparation for MALDI-TOF MS analysis using this method.

Abstract
INTRODUCTIONThe use of the enzyme alkaline phosphatase allows identification of phosphopeptides in a mixture of predominantly nonphosphopeptides. Using a MALDI-MS instrument, the masses of peptides are acquired both before and after alkaline phosphatase treatment, which removes phospho-moieties from serine, threonine, and/or tyrosine. (Any peptide whose mass decreases by 80 Da, or a multiple thereof, is a phosphopeptide.) An advantage of using MALDI-MS for these experiments is that the peptide ions produced tend to be singly charged rather than multiply charged (as with ESI), thus making the interpretation easier. This protocol describes a method for in-solution dephosphorylation after MALDI-MS analysis.

Abstract
We introduce a two-component matrix for ultraviolet matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (UV-MALDI-MS) that consists of 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) and glycerol. Upon slow evaporation of residual water/methanol solvents in a pre-vacuum chamber sample preparations are obtained that exhibit a homogeneous morphology with analyte-matrix crystals evenly distributed over the whole sample spot. At a molar DHB/glycerol ratio of approximately 1:5, the crystals range in length from approximately 100 to 300 microm and are about 15-30 microm wide. Mass spectra of peptides, proteins, and an oligosaccharide are presented and compared with those recorded from standard dried-droplet DHB matrix. The ion signals show a reproducibility of the order of 10-15% when scanning the surface of an individual sample or even different samples that contain the same amount of peptide, A close to linear relationship between peptide concentration and the corresponding peptide ion signal is found over three orders of magnitude of sample prepared. However, when a fixed position is irradiated with a large number of laser pulses, a monotonous decay of peptide ion signal with time is observed. Potentially, the binary matrix will be especially useful for the analysis of samples that are stabilized in buffered aqueous glycerol solution and preliminary results addressing this aspect are shown.

Abstract
Producing detailed mass spectrometric fragmentation data of native oligosaccharides for the purpose of basic structure elucidation has become a readily accessible tool since the availability of enhanced technical equipment. In this report, high-energy collision-induced dissociation (heCID) in combination with MALDI-TOF/TOF technology for analysis of native neutral and acidic oligosaccharides is described. By providing complementary data, heCID-MALDI-TOF/TOF adds a variety of valuable cross-ring fragmentation information to the information of glycosidic fragmentation obtained preferably by laser-induced dissociation (LID). We examined parameters influencing fragmentation behavior of both-acidic and neutral-compounds. Results show a dependency of the fragmentation pattern for the employed matrix as well as the laser intensity provided for the ionization of the analytes and the complexity of the analytes. Due to instrument-specific settings, protonated glycosidic ion series within spectra of sodiated compounds could also be identified. Furthermore, acquired spectra could be readily used to identify compounds by comparison to existing glycan databases such as GlycoSuiteDB and GlycosciencesDB. The results show a better scoring of heCID data sets in comparison to LID-derived data. heCID-MALDI-TOF/TOF analysis in combination with database search algorithms is demonstrated to be suitable for an initial identification/classification of carbohydrates.

Abstract
So far, there have been only a few matrices reported for detection of polysaccharides with molecular weight higher than 3000 Daltons by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS). In this work, we found that 2',4',6'-trihydroxyacetophenone (THAP) is a good matrix for MALDI time-of-flight MS analysis of polysaccharides with broad mass range. Large polysaccharides, dextrans, glycoproteins and polysialic acids have been successfully detected by MALDI-MS with THAP as matrix.
