Harvey DJ. Analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry: An update for 2021-2022. MASS SPECTROMETRY REVIEWS 2024. [PMID: 38925550 DOI: 10.1002/mas.21873] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
The use of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates is a well-established technique and this review is the 12th update of the original article published in 1999 and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2022. As with previous review, this review also includes a few papers that describe methods appropriate to analysis by MALDI, such as sample preparation, even though the ionization method is not MALDI. The review follows the same format as previous reviews. It is divided into three sections: (1) general aspects such as theory of the MALDI process, matrices, derivatization, MALDI imaging, fragmentation, quantification and the use of computer software for structural identification. (2) Applications to various structural types such as oligo- and polysaccharides, glycoproteins, glycolipids, glycosides and biopharmaceuticals, and (3) other general areas such as medicine, industrial processes, natural products and glycan synthesis where MALDI is extensively used. Much of the material relating to applications is presented in tabular form. MALDI is still an ideal technique for carbohydrate analysis, particularly in its ability to produce single ions from each analyte and advancements in the technique and range of applications show little sign of diminishing.

Abstract
Proteomics, the large-scale study of proteins in biological systems has emerged as a pivotal tool in the field of animal and veterinary sciences, mainly for investigating local and rustic breeds. Proteomics provides valuable insights into biological processes underlying animal growth, reproduction, health, and disease. In this review, we highlight the key proteomics technologies, methodologies, and their applications in domestic animals, particularly in the tropical context. We also discuss advances in proteomics research, including integration of multi-omics data, single-cell proteomics, and proteogenomics, all of which are promising for improving animal health, adaptation, welfare, and productivity. However, proteomics research in domestic animals faces challenges, such as sample preparation variation, data quality control, privacy and ethical considerations relating to animal welfare. We also provide recommendations for overcoming these challenges, emphasizing the importance of following best practices in sample preparation, data quality control, and ethical compliance. We therefore aim for this review to harness the full potential of proteomics in advancing our understanding of animal biology and ultimately improve animal health and productivity in local breeds of diverse animal species in a tropical context.

Abstract
Detection of endogenous peptides, especially those with modifications (such as phosphorylation) in biofluids, can serve as an indicator of intracellular pathophysiology. Although great progress has been made in phosphoproteomics in recent years, endogenous phosphopeptidomics has largely lagged behind. One main hurdle in endogenous phosphopeptidomics analysis is the coexistence of proteins and highly abundant nonmodified peptides in complex matrices. In this study, we developed an approach using zirconium(IV)-grafted mesoporous beads to enrich phosphopeptides, followed by analysis with a high resolution nanoRPLC-MS/MS system. The bifunctional material was first tested with digests of standard phosphoproteins and HeLa cell lysates, with excellent enrichment performance achieved. Given the size exclusion nature, the beads were directly applied for endogenous phosphopeptidomic analysis of serum samples from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients and controls. In total, 329 endogenous phosphopeptides (containing 113 high confidence sites) were identified across samples, by far the largest endogenous phosphopeptide data set cataloged to date. In addition, the method was readily applied for phosphoproteomics of the same set of samples, with 172 phosphopeptides identified and significant changes in dozens of phosphopeptides observed. Given the simplicity and robustness of the proposed method, we envision that it can be readily used for comprehensive phosphorylation studies of serum and other biofluid samples.

Abstract
In vitro diagnosis (IVD) is pivotal in modern medicine, enabling early disease detection and treatment optimization. Omics technologies, particularly proteomics and metabolomics, offer profound insights into IVD. Despite its significance, omics analyses for IVD face challenges, including low analyte concentrations and the complexity of biological environments. In addition, the direct omics analysis by mass spectrometry (MS) is often hampered by issues like large sample volume requirements and poor ionization efficiency. Through manipulating their size, surface charge, and functionalization, as well as the nanoparticle-fluid incubation conditions, nanomaterials have emerged as a promising solution to extract biomolecules and enhance the desorption/ionization efficiency in MS detection. This review delves into the last five years of nanomaterial applications in omics, focusing on their role in the enrichment, separation, and ionization analysis of proteins and metabolites for IVD. It aims to provide a comprehensive update on nanomaterial design and application in omics, highlighting their potential to revolutionize IVD.

Abstract
Protein glycosylation and phosphorylation play essential roles in biological systems. The crosstalk of both glycosylation and phosphorylation on one protein represents an unveiled biological function. To realize the analyses of both glycopeptides and phosphopeptides, a simultaneous enrichment method of N-glycopeptides, mono-phosphopeptides and multi-phosphopeptides was developed based on a multi-functional dual-metal centered zirconium metal-organic framework that provided multiple interactions for HILIC, IMAC, and MOAC for glycopeptides and phosphopeptides. Based on a careful optimization of sample loading and elution conditions for the simultaneous enrichment of glycopeptides and phosphopeptides with the zirconium metal-organic framework, a total of 1011 N-glycopeptides derived from 410 glycoproteins and 1996 phosphopeptides including 741 multi-phosphopeptides derived from 1189 phosphoproteins could be identified from a HeLa cell digest. The simultaneous enrichment approach for glycopeptides and mono-/multi-phosphopeptides demonstrates the great potential of the combined interactions for HILIC, IMAC, and MOAC in integrated post-translational modification proteomics research.

Abstract
As the common and significant chemical modifications, post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a key role in the functional proteome. Affected by the signal interference, low concentration, and insufficient ionization efficiency of impurities, the direct detection of PTMs by mass spectrometry (MS) still faces many challenges. Therefore, sample preparation and enrichment are an indispensable link before MS analysis of PTMs in proteomics. The rapid development of functionalized materials with diverse morphologies and compositions provides an avenue for sample preparation and enrichment for PTMs analysis. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the application of novel functionalized materials in sample preparation for phosphoproteomes and glycoproteomes analysis. In addition, this review specifically discusses the design and preparation of functionalized materials based on different enrichment mechanisms, and proposes research directions and potential challenges for proteomic PTMs research.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation and glycosylation coordinately regulate numerous complex biological processes. However, the main methods to simultaneously enrich them are based on the coordination interactions or Lewis acid-base interactions, which suffer from low coverage of target molecules due to strong intermolecular interactions. Here, we constructed a poly-histidine modified silica (SiO2@Poly-His) microspheres-based method for the simultaneous enrichment, sequential elution and analysis of phosphopeptides and glycopeptides. The SiO2@Poly-His microspheres driven by hydrophilic interactions and multiple hydrogen bonding interactions exhibited high selectivity and coverage for simultaneous enrichment of phosphopeptides and glycopeptides from 1,000 molar folds of bovine serum albumin interference. Furthermore, “on-line deglycosylation” strategy allows sequential elution of phosphopeptides and glycopeptides, protecting phosphopeptides from hydrolysis during deglycosylation and improving the coverage of phosphopeptides. The application of our established method to HT29 cell lysates resulted in a total of 1,601 identified glycopeptides and 694 identified phosphopeptides, which were 1.2-fold and 1.5-fold higher than those obtained from the co-elution strategy, respectively. The SiO2@Poly-His based simultaneous enrichment and sequential separation strategy might have great potential in co-analysis of PTMs-proteomics of biological and clinic samples.

Abstract
Metal oxide affinity chromatography (MOAC) is considered to be one of the most effective methods for phosphopeptide enrichment. However, most of the materials used in the method are powder; frequent centrifugation is necessitated during the enrichment process, and potential risks of loss of peptides and materials and clogging of the column employed for liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) arise. Moreover, the reusability of these materials to achieve sustainability was hardly investigated. To overcome these limitations, herein, inorganic titanium dioxide (TiO2) was coated onto the skeletal surface of the organic cellulose monolith (CM) material with a coral-like structure via a sol-gel method. This produced an organic-inorganic hybrid TiO2-CM material, which contained a combination of organic and inorganic substances, making it mimic the mollusk shell in terms of composition. The prepared TiO2-CM material as monolith exhibited excellent mechanical strength and did not break during the enrichment process; thus, the tedious implementation of multiple centrifugation cycles was prevented, thereby streamlining the experimental procedure and avoiding the loss of peptides and materials. Moreover, a large amount of TiO2 was introduced onto the surface of the CM material, and thus, the resultant TiO2-CM material exhibited a large surface area. As a result, the fabricated TiO2-CM material was successfully applied to the enrichment of phosphopeptides obtained from the tryptic digests of a BSA/β-casein (mass ratio, 500/1) mixture. The results were superior to those achieved for commercial TiO2 beads, confirming that TiO2-CM has excellent selectivity for phosphopeptides and reusability. Furthermore, 9287 unique phosphopeptides derived from the 2661 phosphoproteins were successfully identified from two milligrams of tryptic digests of Hela cell exosomes obtained through five independent replications after enriching using the TiO2-CM material. The results indicated that the material has good application prospects in the analysis of protein phosphorylation. Furthermore, TiO2-CM consists of green and cheap cellulose as the skeleton, and its synthesis process is environment-friendly, simple, and inexpensive.
