Abstract
Reflectron-based time-of-flight analyzers rely on subnanosecond detector time response to achieve acceptable resolving power for low-mid-mass, multiple-ion peaks. With the adoption of multireflection analyzers, order of magnitude longer folded ion paths relax restrictions on detector response time, allowing implementation of new technologies that greatly improve dynamic range, detector lifetime, and ion detection efficiency. A detection system is presented, integrated into a multireflection analyzer, that combines 10 keV postacceleration and focal plane correction with a unique BxE focusing, optically coupled detector, preamplification, and dual-channel digitization. Calibration and peak-handling methods are also described. The instrument demonstrated >1 × 104 dynamic range in a single shot, > 100k resolving power, and a relative immunity to detector aging.

Abstract
Data-independent acquisition (DIA) techniques such as sequential window acquisition of all theoretical mass spectra (SWATH) acquisition have emerged as the preferred strategies for proteomic analyses. Our study optimized the SWATH-DIA method using a narrow isolation window placement approach, improving its proteomic performance. We optimized the acquisition parameter combinations of narrow isolation windows with different widths (1.9 and 2.9 Da) on a ZenoTOF 7600 (Sciex); the acquired data were analyzed using DIA-NN (version 1.8.1). Narrow SWATH (nSWATH) identified 5916 and 7719 protein groups on the digested peptides, corresponding to 400 ng of protein from mouse liver and HEK293T cells, respectively, improving identification by 7.52 and 4.99%, respectively, compared to conventional SWATH. The median coefficient of variation of the quantified values was less than 6%. We further analyzed 200 ng of benchmark samples comprising peptides from known ratios ofEscherichia coli, yeast, and human peptides using nSWATH. Consequently, it achieved accuracy and precision comparable to those of conventional SWATH, identifying an average of 95,456 precursors and 9342 protein groups across three benchmark samples, representing 12.6 and 9.63% improved identification compared to conventional SWATH. The nSWATH method improved identification at various loading amounts of benchmark samples, identifying 40.7% more protein groups at 25 ng. These results demonstrate the improved performance of nSWATH, contributing to the acquisition of deeper proteomic data from complex biological samples.

Concomitant investigation of crustacean amphipods lipidome and metabolome during the molting cycle by Zeno SWATH data-independent acquisition coupled with electron activated dissociation and machine learning. Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1304:342533.

Abstract
BACKGROUND DIA (Data-Independent Acquisition) is a powerful technique in Liquid Chromatography coupled with high-resolution tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) initially developed for proteomics studies and recently emerging in metabolomics and lipidomics. It provides a comprehensive and unbiased coverage of molecules with improved reproducibility and quantitative accuracy compared to Data-Dependent Acquisition (DDA). Combined with the Zeno trap and Electron-Activated Dissociation (EAD), DIA enhances data quality and structural elucidation compared to conventional fragmentation under CID. These tools were applied to study the lipidome and metabolome of the freshwater amphipod Gammarus fossarum, successfully discriminating stages and highlighting significant biological features. Despite being underused, DIA, along with the Zeno trap and EAD, holds great potential for advancing research in the omics field. RESULTS DIA combined with the Zeno trap enhances detection reproducibility compared to conventional DDA, improving fragmentation spectra quality and putative identifications. LC coupled with Zeno-SWATH-DIA methods were used to characterize molecular changes in reproductive cycle of female gammarids. Multivariate data analysis including Principal Component Analysis and Partial Least Square Discriminant Analysis successfully identified significant features. EAD fragmentation helped to identify unknown features and to confirm their molecular structure using fragmentation spectra database annotation or machine learning. EAD database matching accurately annotated five glycerophospholipids, including the position of double bonds on fatty acid chain moieties. SIRIUS database predicted structures of unknown features based on experimental fragmentation spectra to compensate for database incompleteness. SIGNIFICANCE Reproducible detection of features and confident identification of putative compounds are pivotal stages within analytical pipelines. The DIA approach combined with Zeno pulsing enhances detection sensitivity and targeted fragmentation with EAD in positive polarity provides orthogonal fragmentation information. In our study, Zeno-DIA and EAD thereby facilitated a comprehensive and insightful exploration of pertinent biological molecules associated with the reproductive cycle of gammarids. The developed methodology holds great promises for identifying informative biomarkers on the health status of an environmental sentinel species.

Abstract
A novel ion optical optimization method for planar multireflection time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MR-TOFMS) is introduced in this paper. The multiparameters of the gridless mirror model, including geometric and voltage parameters, are automatically optimized using a self-made program created in SIMION 8.1. Combining with the hill climbing algorithm and parallel computing technique, this method substantially enhances optimization efficiency and accuracy. The fitting results demonstrated that the ion optical performance of the gridless mirror reached up to fourth-order isochronicity with respect to the energy spread and third-order isochronicity with respect to the spatial and angular spread. As a result, the gridless mirror model achieved an aberration limit resolution of 1.7 million under realistic ion beam conditions. Due to constraints of periodic lenses, the aberration limit resolution of the planar MR-TOFMS was optimized to 600k. These results indicate that the hill climbing algorithm is an effective method to search the optimal solutions in complex ion optical systems.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics aims to characterize comprehensive proteomes in a fast and reproducible manner. Here we present the narrow-window data-independent acquisition (nDIA) strategy consisting of high-resolution MS1 scans with parallel tandem MS (MS/MS) scans of ~200 Hz using 2-Th isolation windows, dissolving the differences between data-dependent and -independent methods. This is achieved by pairing a quadrupole Orbitrap mass spectrometer with the asymmetric track lossless (Astral) analyzer which provides >200-Hz MS/MS scanning speed, high resolving power and sensitivity, and low-ppm mass accuracy. The nDIA strategy enables profiling of >100 full yeast proteomes per day, or 48 human proteomes per day at the depth of ~10,000 human protein groups in half-an-hour or ~7,000 proteins in 5 min, representing 3× higher coverage compared with current state-of-the-art MS. Multi-shot acquisition of offline fractionated samples provides comprehensive coverage of human proteomes in ~3 h. High quantitative precision and accuracy are demonstrated in a three-species proteome mixture, quantifying 14,000+ protein groups in a single half-an-hour run.

Abstract
Ion traps are routinely directly coupled to mass analyzers, where they serve to suitably cool and shape an ion population prior to pulsed extraction into the analyzer proper. Such devices benefit from high duty cycle and transmission but suffer slow ion processing times caused by a compromise in the buffer gas pressure range that suitably dampens the ion kinetic energy without causing excessive scatter during extraction or within the analyzer. A rectilinear RF quadrupole ion trap has been characterized, conjoining a pressurized collision region with a pumped extraction region, and an unbroken RF interface for seamless ion transfer between them. Auxiliary electrodes mounted between the RF electrodes provide DC voltage gradients that serve to both guide ions through the device and position them at the extraction slot. The influence of the auxiliary DC upon the trapping RF field was measured, and suitable parameters were defined. A mode of operation was developed that allowed parallel processing of ions in both regions, enabling a repetition rate of 200 Hz when the device was coupled to a high-resolution accurate-mass analyzer.

Abstract
We report the first sequencing of morpholino antisense oligonucleotides (phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers, PMOs) using electron capture dissociation (ECD) mass spectrometry. In this research, we found dissociation of the backbone of 18- to 25-mer PMOs to produce d and z ions as the major ions, and 100% cleavage coverage (sequence coverage) was obtained with these ions. This is a critical contrast with beam-type collision-induced dissociation, which dominantly induces base loss, so it is difficult to obtain sequence information. The results showed that an electron beam energy (typically 15 eV) can be used universally for PMOs with different sequences, lengths, and charge states so that no detailed optimization is required for multiprecursor targeting liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry measurements. We also confirmed that the ECD reaction speed was compatible with the high-performance liquid chromatography time scale. Finally, we demonstrated a liquid chromatography electron capture dissociation tandem mass spectrometry workflow to survey the modification sites of the emulated PMO impurities.

Abstract
The growing trend toward high-throughput proteomics demands rapid liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) cycles that limit the available time to gather the large numbers of MS/MS fragmentation spectra required for identification. Orbitrap analyzers scale performance with acquisition time and necessarily sacrifice sensitivity and resolving power to deliver higher acquisition rates. We developed a new mass spectrometer that combines a mass-resolving quadrupole, the Orbitrap, and the novel Asymmetric Track Lossless (Astral) analyzer. The new hybrid instrument enables faster acquisition of high-resolution accurate mass (HRAM) MS/MS spectra compared with state-of-the-art mass spectrometers. Accordingly, new proteomics methods were developed that leverage the strengths of each HRAM analyzer, whereby the Orbitrap analyzer performs full scans with a high dynamic range and resolution, synchronized with the Astral analyzer's acquisition of fast and sensitive HRAM MS/MS scans. Substantial improvements are demonstrated over previous methods using current state-of-the-art mass spectrometers.

Abstract
In August 2022, a novel henipavirus (HNV) named Langya virus (LayV) was isolated from patients with severe pneumonic disease in China. This virus is closely related to Mòjiāng virus (MojV), and both are divergent from the bat-borne HNV members, Nipah (NiV) and Hendra (HeV) viruses. The spillover of LayV is the first instance of a HNV zoonosis to humans outside of NiV and HeV, highlighting the continuing threat this genus poses to human health. In this work, we determine the prefusion structures of MojV and LayV F proteins via cryogenic electron microscopy to 2.66 and 3.37 Å, respectively. We show that despite sequence divergence from NiV, the F proteins adopt an overall similar structure but are antigenically distinct as they do not react to known antibodies or sera. Glycoproteomic analysis revealed that while LayV F is less glycosylated than NiV F, it contains a glycan that shields a site of vulnerability previously identified for NiV. These findings explain the distinct antigenic profile of LayV and MojV F, despite the extent to which they are otherwise structurally similar to NiV. Our results carry implications for broad-spectrum HNV vaccines and therapeutics, and indicate an antigenic, yet not structural, divergence from prototypical HNVs.

Abstract
Herein, we report a novel liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry method to characterize N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac, Sa) linkage in N-linked glycans in glycopeptides with no sialic acid derivatization. First, we established a separation in reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using a higher formic acid concentration in the mobile phases, which separated the N-glycopeptides depending on the Sa linkage. We also demonstrated a novel characterization method of Sa linkages in N-glycopeptides using electron-activated dissociation. We found that hot electron capture dissociation using an electron beam energy higher than 5 eV cleaved glycosidic bonds in glycopeptides, resulting in each glycosidic bond in the antennas being broken on both sides of the oxygen atom. Such glycosidic bond cleavage at the reducing end (C-type ion) showed the difference in Sa linkages between Sa-Gal, Gal-GlcNAc, and GlcNAc-Man. We proposed a rule to characterize the Sa linkages using the Sa-Gal products. This method was applied to N-glycopeptides in tryptic fetuin digest separated by an optimized reversed-phase HPLC. We successfully identified a number of isomeric glycoforms in the glycopeptides with different Sa links, whose peptide backbones were also simultaneously sequenced by hot ECD.

Abstract
Accurate reconstruction of metabolic pathways is an important prerequisite for interpreting metabolomics changes and understanding the diverse biological processes in disease models. A tracer-based metabolomics strategy utilizes stable isotope-labeled precursors to resolve complex pathways by tracing the labeled atom(s) to downstream metabolites through enzymatic reactions. Isotope enrichment analysis is informative and achieved by counting total labeled atoms and acquiring the mass isotopologue distribution (MID) of the intact metabolite. However, quantitative analysis of labeled metabolite substructures/moieties (MS2 fragments) can offer more valuable insights into the reaction connections through measuring metabolite transformation. In order to acquire the isotopic labeling information at the intact metabolite and moiety level simultaneously, we developed a method that couples hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) with Zeno trap-enabled high-resolution multiple reaction monitoring (MRMHR). The method enabled accurate and reproducible MID quantification for intact metabolites as well as their fragmented moieties, with notably high sensitivity in the MS2 fragmentation mode based on the measurement of 13C- or 15N-labeled cellular samples. The method was applied to human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neurons to trace the fate of 13C/15N atoms from D-13C6-glucose/L-15N2-glutamine added to the media. With the MID analysis of both intact metabolites and fragmented moieties, we validated the pathway reconstruction of de novo glutathione synthesis in mid-brain neurons. We discovered increased glutathione oxidization from both basal and newly synthesized glutathione pools under neuronal oxidative stress. Furthermore, the significantly decreased de novo glutathione synthesis was investigated and associated with altered activities of several key enzymes, as evidenced by suppressed glutamate supply via glucose metabolism and a diminished flux of glutathione synthetic reaction in the neuronal model of rotenone-induced neurodegeneration.

Abstract
Time-of-flight MS systems for biopharmaceutical and protein characterization applications may play an even more pivotal role in the future as biotherapeutics increase in drug pipelines and as top-down MS approaches increase in use. Here, a recently developed TOF MS system is examined for monoclonal antibody (mAb) characterization from serum samples. After immunocapture, purified drug material spiked into monkey serum or dosed for an in-life study is analyzed by top-down MS. While characterization aspects are a distinct advantage of the MS platform, MS system and software capabilities are also shown regarding intact protein quantitation. Such applications are demonstrated to help enable comprehensive protein molecule quantitation and characterization by use of TOF MS instrumentation.

Abstract
Multidimensional multiple-stage tandem processing of ions is demonstrated successfully in a novel segmented linear ion trap. The enhanced performance is enabled by incorporating the entire range of ion activation methods into a single platform in a highly dynamic fashion. The ion activation network comprises external injection of reagent ions, radical neutral species, photons, electrons, and collisions with neutrals. Axial segmentation of the two-dimensional trapping field provides access to a unique functionality landscape through a system of purpose-designed regions for processing ions with maximum flexibility. Design aspects of the segmented linear ion trap, termed the Omnitrap platform, are highlighted, and motion of ions trapped by rectangular waveforms is investigated experimentally by mapping the stability diagram, tracing secular frequencies, and exploring different isolation techniques. All fragmentation methods incorporated in the Omnitrap platform involving radical chemistry are shown to provide complete sequence coverage for partially unfolded ubiquitin. Three-stage (MS3) tandem mass spectrometry experiments combining collision-induced dissociation of radical ions produced by electron meta-ionization and further involving two intermediate steps of ion isolation and accumulation are performed with high efficiency, producing information rich spectra with signal-to-noise levels comparable to those obtained in a two-stage (MS2) experiment. The advanced capabilities of the Omnitrap platform to provide in-depth top-down MSn characterization of proteins are portrayed. Performance is further enhanced by connecting the Omnitrap platform to an Orbitrap mass analyzer, while successful integration with time-of-flight analyzers has already been demonstrated.

Abstract
We describe a method to obtain a comprehensive profile of multiple glycosylations in glycopeptide isoforms. We detected a wide range of abundances of various O-glycoforms in isomeric glycopeptides using hot electron capture dissociation (hot ECD) in liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. To capture low abundant glycosylated species, a prototype of a ZenoTOF 7600 system incorporating an efficient electron-activated dissociation device to perform hot ECD was operated in targeted or scheduled high-resolution multiple reaction monitoring workflows. In addition, Zeno trap pulsing was activated to enhance the sensitivity of the time-of-flight mass spectrometer. Sixty-nine O-glycopeptides of the long O-glycopeptides in tryptic bovine fetuin digest were obtained with a relative abundance range from 100 to 0.2%, which included sialylated glycans with Neu5Ac and Neu5Gc.

Abstract
Progress in structural biology research has led to a high demand for powerful and yet complementary analytical tools for structural characterization of proteins and protein complexes. This demand has significantly increased interest in native mass spectrometry (nMS), particularly native top-down mass spectrometry (nTDMS) in the past decade. This review highlights recent advances in nTDMS for structural research of biological assemblies, with a particular focus on the extra multi-layers of information enabled by TDMS. We include a short introduction of sample preparation and ionization to nMS, tandem fragmentation techniques as well as mass analyzers and software/analysis pipelines used for nTDMS. We highlight unique structural information offered by nTDMS and examples of its broad range of applications in proteins, protein-ligand interactions (metal, cofactor/drug, DNA/RNA, and protein), therapeutic antibodies and antigen-antibody complexes, membrane proteins, macromolecular machineries (ribosome, nucleosome, proteosome, and viruses), to endogenous protein complexes. The challenges, potential, along with perspectives of nTDMS methods for the analysis of proteins and protein assemblies in recombinant and biological samples are discussed.

Abstract
Native mass spectrometry (MS) involves the analysis and characterization of macromolecules, predominantly intact proteins and protein complexes, whereby as much as possible the native structural features of the analytes are retained. As such, native MS enables the study of secondary, tertiary, and even quaternary structure of proteins and other biomolecules. Native MS represents a relatively recent addition to the analytical toolbox of mass spectrometry and has over the past decade experienced immense growth, especially in enhancing sensitivity and resolving power but also in ease of use. With the advent of dedicated mass analyzers, sample preparation and separation approaches, targeted fragmentation techniques, and software solutions, the number of practitioners and novel applications has risen in both academia and industry. This review focuses on recent developments, particularly in high-resolution native MS, describing applications in the structural analysis of protein assemblies, proteoform profiling of─among others─biopharmaceuticals and plasma proteins, and quantitative and qualitative analysis of protein-ligand interactions, with the latter covering lipid, drug, and carbohydrate molecules, to name a few.

Abstract
Theoretically, the gas-phase interrogation of whole proteoforms via mass spectrometry, known as top-down proteomics, bypasses the protein inference problem that afflicts peptide-centric proteomic approaches. Despite this obvious advantage, the application of top-down proteomics remains rare, mainly due to limited throughput and difficulty of analyzing proteins >30 kDa. Here we will discuss some of the problems encountered during the characterization of large proteoforms, and guided by a combination of theoretical background and experimental evidence we will describe some innovative data acquisition strategies and novel mass spectrometry technologies that can at least partially overcome such limitations.

Abstract
The accurate quantification of triterpenoids in Ganoderma lucidum mushroom in the mycelium stage is challenging due to their low concentrations, interference from other possible isomers, and the complex matrix. Here, a high-resolution quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry "multiple reaction monitoring" with target enhancement (HR-QTOF-MRM) method was developed to quantify seven target triterpenoids in G. lucidum. The performance of this method was compared against an optimized QQQ-MRM method. The HR-QTOF-MRM was shown to be capable of distinguishing target triterpenoids from interferent peaks in the presence of matrices. The HR-QTOF-MRM LOD and LLOQ values were found to be one to two times lower than those derived from the QQQ-MRM method. Intraday and interday variabilities of the HR-QTOF-MRM demonstrated better reproducibility than the QQQ-MRM. In addition, excellent recoveries of the analytes ranging from 80 to 117% were achieved. Spiking experiments were carried out to verify and compare the quantitative accuracy of the two methods. The HR-QTOF-MRM method provided better percent accuracy, ranging from 84% to 99% (<3% RSD), compared with the range of 69 to 114% (<4%RSD) given by the QQQ-MRM method. These results demonstrate that the new HR-QTOF-MRM mode is able to improve sensitivity, reproducibility, and accuracy of trace level analysis of triterpenoids in the complex biological samples. The triterpenoid concentrations were in the range of nondetect to 0.06-6.72 mg/g of dried weight in fruiting body and to 0.0009-0.01 mg/g of dried weight in mycelium.

[PMID: 32779281 DOI: 10.1002/mas.21650] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2019] [Revised: 02/25/2020] [Accepted: 07/07/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS) is one of the simplest and most powerful approaches for mass spectrometry. Realization of the advantages inherent in TOFMS requires innovation in the theory and practice of the technique. Instrumental developments, in turn, create new capabilities that enable applications in chemical measurement. This review focuses on the recent advances in TOFMS instrumentation. New strategies for ion acceleration, multiplexed detection, miniaturized TOFMS instruments, approaches to extend the length of ion flight, and novel ion detection technologies are reviewed. Techniques that change the basic paradigm of TOFMS by measuring m/z based on ion flight distance are considered, as are applications at the frontiers of instrumental performance. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.

Abstract
We report the progress on an electron-activated dissociation (EAD) device coupled to a quadrupole TOF mass spectrometer (QqTOF MS) developed in our group. This device features a new electron beam optics design allowing up to 100 times stronger electron currents in the reaction cell. The electron beam current reached the space-charge limit of 0.5 μA at near-zero electron kinetic energies. These advances enable fast and efficient dissociation of various analytes ranging from singly charged small molecules to multiply protonated proteins. Tunable electron energy provides access to different fragmentation regimes: ECD, hot ECD, and electron-impact excitation of ions from organics (EIEIO). The efficiency of the device was tested on a wide range of precursor charge states. The EAD device was installed in a QqTOF MS employing a novel trap-and-release strategy facilitating spatial mass focusing of ions at the center of the TOF accelerator. This technique increased the sensitivity 6-10 times and allows for the first time comprehensive structural lipidomics on an LC time scale. The system was evaluated for other compound classes such as intact proteins and glycopeptides. Application of hot ECD for the analysis of glycopeptides resulted in rich fragmentation with predominantly peptide backbone fragments; however, glycan fragments attributed to the ECD process were also observed. A standard small protein ubiquitin (8.6 kDa) was sequenced with 90% cleavage coverage at spectrum accumulation times of 100 ms and 98% at 800 ms. Comparable cleavage coverage for a medium-size protein (carbonic anhydrase: 29 kDa) could be achieved, albeit with longer accumulation times.

Quantitative structural multiclass lipidomics using differential mobility: electron impact excitation of ions from organics (EIEIO) mass spectrometry. J Lipid Res 2018; 59:910-919.

Abstract
We report a method for comprehensive structural characterization of lipids in animal tissues using a combination of differential ion mobility spectrometry (DMS) with electron-impact excitation of ions from organics (EIEIO) mass spectrometry. Singly charged lipid ions in protonated or sodiated forms were dissociated by an electron beam having a kinetic energy of 10 eV in a branched radio-frequency ion trap. We established a comprehensive set of diagnostics to characterize the structures of glycerophospholipids, sphingolipids, and acylglycerols, including glycosylated, plasmalogen, and ester forms. This EIEIO mass spectrometer was combined with DMS as a separation tool to analyze complex lipid extracts. Deuterated quantitative standards, which were added during extraction, allowed for the quantitative analysis of the lipid molecular species in various lipid classes. We applied this technique to the total lipids extracted from porcine brain, and we structurally characterized over 300 lipids (with the exception of cis/trans double-bond isomerism in the acyl chains). The structural dataset of the lipidomes, whose regioisomers were distinguished, exhibit a uniquely defined distribution of acyl chains within each lipid class; that is, sn-1 and sn-2 in the cases of glycerophospholipids or sn-2 and (sn-1, sn-3) in the cases of triacylglycerols.
