Radial basis function neural network optimization algorithm based on dynamic inertial weight particle swarm optimization for separating overlapping peaks in ion mobility spectrometry. RAPID COMMUNICATIONS IN MASS SPECTROMETRY : RCM 2024; 38:e9700. [PMID: 38356089 DOI: 10.1002/rcm.9700] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2023] [Revised: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 02/16/2024]
Abstract
RATIONALE Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS), as a promising analytical tool, has been widely employed in the structural characterization of biomolecules. Nevertheless, the inherent limitation in the structural resolution of IMS frequently results in peak overlap during the analysis of isomers exhibiting comparable structures. METHODS The radial basis function (RBF) neural network optimization algorithm based on dynamic inertial weight particle swarm optimization (DIWPSO) was proposed for separating overlapping peaks in IMS. The RBF network structure and parameters were optimized using the DIWPSO algorithm. By extensively training using a large dataset, an adaptive model was developed to effectively separate overlapping peaks in IMS data. This approach successfully overcomes issues related to local optima, ensuring efficient and precise separation of overlapping peaks. RESULTS The method's performance was evaluated using experimental validation and analysis of overlapping peaks in the IMS spectra of two sets of isomers: 3'/6'-sialyllactose; fructose-6-phosphate, glucose-1-phosphate, and glucose-6-phosphate. A comparative analysis was conducted using other algorithms, including the sparrow search algorithm, DIWPSO algorithm, and multi-objective dynamic teaching-learning-based optimization algorithm. The comparison results show that the DIWPSO-RBF algorithm achieved remarkably low maximum relative errors of only 0.42%, 0.092%, and 0.41% for ion height, mobility, and half peak width, respectively. These error rates are significantly lower than those obtained using the other three algorithms. CONCLUSIONS The experimental results convincingly demonstrate that this method can adaptively, rapidly, and accurately separate overlapping peaks of multiple components, improving the structural resolution of IMS.

Abstract
This review is the tenth update of the original article published in 1999 on the application of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI) mass spectrometry to the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2018. Also included are papers that describe methods appropriate to glycan and glycoprotein analysis by MALDI, such as sample preparation techniques, even though the ionization method is not MALDI. Topics covered in the first part of the review include general aspects such as theory of the MALDI process, new methods, matrices, derivatization, MALDI imaging, fragmentation and the use of arrays. The second part of the review is devoted to applications to various structural types such as oligo- and poly-saccharides, glycoproteins, glycolipids, glycosides, and biopharmaceuticals. Most of the applications are presented in tabular form. The third part of the review covers medical and industrial applications of the technique, studies of enzyme reactions, and applications to chemical synthesis. The reported work shows increasing use of combined new techniques such as ion mobility and highlights the impact that MALDI imaging is having across a range of diciplines. MALDI is still an ideal technique for carbohydrate analysis and advancements in the technique and the range of applications continue steady progress.

Abstract
Infrared laser ablation sample transfer (LAST) was used to collect samples from solid surfaces for mass spectrometry under native spray conditions. Native mass spectrometry was utilized to probe the charge states and collision-induced unfolding (CIU) characteristics of bovine serum albumin (BSA), bovine hemoglobin (BHb), and jack-bean concanavalin A (ConA) via direct injection electrospray, after liquid extraction surface sampling, and after LAST. Each protein was deposited from solution on solid surfaces and laser-ablated for off-line analysis or sampled for online analysis. It was found that the protein ion gas-phase charge-state distributions were comparable for direct infusion, liquid extraction, and laser ablation experiments. Moreover, calculated average collision cross section (CCS) values from direct injection, liquid extraction, and laser ablation experiments were consistent with previously reported literature values. Additionally, an equivalent number of mobility features and conformational turnovers were identified from unfolding pathways from all three methods for all charge states of each protein analyzed in this work. The presented work suggests that laser ablation yields intact proteins (BSA, BHb, and ConA), is compatible with native mass spectrometry, and could be suitable for spatially resolved interrogation of unfolding pathways of proteins.

Abstract
Although as an analytical method with high specificity and high sensitivity, mass spectrometry (MS) has a wide range of applications in many fields, it still needs other technologies as the assist and supplement to enhance the scope and capability of analysis. Coupling with ion mobility (IM) can make an enhancement effect in the field of pharmaceutical analysis as a supplementary method. The two-dimensional mass technology improves the confidence of compounds annotations while increasing peak capacity, with the gradual deepening of theoretical research on IM-MS, it has shown unique advantages in the complex analysis conditions. IM-MS owns great potential for improving the depth, range, dimension of in-depth drug research. In this review, the principle, instruments and methods, applications, advantages and limitations of IM-MS are described. Here, we also elaborate on the prospects in structural evaluation, separation, and identification of complex compounds for the drug discovery and development phase and the great advantages of macromolecules and omics.

Abstract
Determination of collision cross sections (CCS) using the cross-sectional areas by the Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (CRAFTI) technique is limited by the requirement that accurate pressures in the trapping cell of the mass spectrometer must be known. Experiments must also be performed in the energetic hard-sphere regime such that ions decohere after single collisions with neutrals; this limits application to ions that are not much more massive than the neutrals. To mitigate these problems, we have resonantly excited two (or more) ions of different m/z to the same center-of-mass kinetic energy in a single experiment, subjecting them to identical neutral pressures. We term this approach "multi-CRAFTI". This facilitates measurement of relative CCS without requiring knowledge of the pressure and enables determination of absolute CCS using internal standards. Experiments with tetraalkylammonium ions yield CCS in reasonable agreement with the one-ion-at-a-time CRAFTI approach and with ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) when differences in collision energetics are taken into account (multi-CRAFTI generally yields smaller CCS than does IMS due to the higher collision energies employed in multi-CRAFTI). Comparison of multi-CRAFTI and IMS results with CCS calculated from structures computed at the M06-2X/6-31+G* level of theory using projection approximation or trajectory method values, respectively, indicates that the computed structures have CCS increasingly smaller than the experimental CCS as m/z increases, implying the computational model overestimates interactions between the alkyl arms. For ions that undergo similar collisional decoherence processes, relative CCS reach constant values at lower collision energies than do absolute CCS values, suggesting a means of increasing the accessible upper m/z limit by employing multi-CRAFTI.

Abstract
The concept of the exposome was introduced over 15 years ago to reflect the important role that the environment exerts on health and disease. While originally viewed as a call-to-arms to develop more comprehensive exposure assessment methods applicable at the individual level and throughout the life course, the scope of the exposome has now expanded to include the associated biological response. In order to explore these concepts, a workshop was hosted by the Gunma University Initiative for Advanced Research (GIAR, Japan) to discuss the scope of exposomics from an international and multidisciplinary perspective. This Global Perspective is a summary of the discussions with emphasis on (1) top-down, bottom-up, and functional approaches to exposomics, (2) the need for integration and standardization of LC- and GC-based high-resolution mass spectrometry methods for untargeted exposome analyses, (3) the design of an exposomics study, (4) the requirement for open science workflows including mass spectral libraries and public databases, (5) the necessity for large investments in mass spectrometry infrastructure in order to sequence the exposome, and (6) the role of the exposome in precision medicine and nutrition to create personalized environmental exposure profiles. Recommendations are made on key issues to encourage continued advancement and cooperation in exposomics.

Abstract
The collision cross section (CCS) is an important property that aids in the structural characterization of molecules. Here, we investigated the CCS calibration accuracy with traveling wave ion mobility spectrometry (TWIMS) separations in structures for lossless ion manipulations (SLIM) using three sets of calibrants. A series of singly negatively charged phospholipids and bile acids were calibrated in nitrogen buffer gas using two different TW waveform profiles (square and sine) and amplitudes (20, 25, and 30 V0-p). The calibration errors for the three calibrant sets (Agilent tuning mixture, polyalanine, and one assembled in-house) showed negligible differences using a sine-shaped TW waveform. Calibration errors were all within 1-2% of the drift tube ion mobility spectrometry (DTIMS) measurements, with lower errors for sine waveforms, presumably due to the lower average and maximum fields experienced by ions. Finally, ultrahigh-resolution multipass (long path length) SLIM TWIMS separations demonstrated improved CCS calibration for phospholipid and bile acid isomers.

Abstract
Zinc metalloproteases (ZnMPs) participate in diverse biological reactions, encompassing the synthesis and degradation of all the major metabolites in living organisms. In particular, ZnMPs have been recognized to play a very important role in controlling the concentration level of several peptides and/or proteins whose homeostasis has to be finely regulated for the correct physiology of cells. Dyshomeostasis of aggregation-prone proteins causes pathological conditions and the development of several different diseases. For this reason, in recent years, many analytical approaches have been applied for studying the interaction between ZnMPs and their substrates and how environmental factors can affect enzyme activities. In this scenario, mass spectrometric methods occupy a very important role in elucidating different aspects of ZnMPs-substrates interaction. These range from identification of cleavage sites to quantitation of kinetic parameters. In this work, an overview of all the main achievements regarding the application of mass spectrometric methods to investigating ZnMPs-substrates interactions is presented. A general experimental protocol is also described which may prove useful to the study of similar interactions. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Mass Spec Rev.

Abstract
Rotationally averaged collision cross section (CCS) values for a series of proteins and protein complexes ranging in size from 8.6 to 810 kDa are reported. The CCSs were obtained using a native electrospray ionization drift tube ion mobility-Orbitrap mass spectrometer specifically designed to enhance sensitivity while having high-resolution ion mobility and mass capabilities. Periodic focusing (PF)-drift tube (DT)-ion mobility (IM) provides first-principles determination of the CCS of large biomolecules that can then be used as CCS calibrants. The experimental, first-principles CCS values are compared to previously reported experimentally determined and computationally calculated CCS using projected superposition approximation (PSA), the Ion Mobility Projection Approximation Calculation Tool (IMPACT), and Collidoscope. Experimental CCS values are generally in agreement with previously reported CCSs, with values falling within ∼5.5%. In addition, an ion mobility resolution (CCS centroid divided by CCS fwhm) of ∼60 is obtained for pyruvate kinase (MW ∼ 233 kDa); however, ion mobility resolution for bovine serum albumin (MW ∼ 68 kDa) is less than ∼20, which arises from sample impurities and underscores the importance of sample quality. The high resolution afforded by the ion mobility-Orbitrap mass analyzer provides new opportunities to understand the intricate details of protein complexes such as the impact of post-translational modifications (PTMs), stoichiometry, and conformational changes induced by ligand binding.

Abstract
Recent studies have illuminated connections between spontaneous chemical reactions that cause isomerization at specific protein residues and various age-related diseases including cataracts and Alzheimer's. These discoveries provide impetus for better analytical methods to detect and characterize isomerization in proteins, which will enable a more complete understanding of the underlying relationship between these modifications and biology. Herein we employ a two-dimensional approach for identification of peptides isomers that also includes pinpointing of the modified residue. Collision-induced dissociation is used to fragment ions in the first dimension, followed by separation of the fragments with travelling-wave ion mobility. By comparing data obtained from both isomers, differences in either fragment-ion intensities or arrival-time distributions can be used to identify isomeric forms and the specific site of modification within the peptides. Synthetic peptide standards with sequences derived from long-lived proteins in the eye lens and isomerization at serine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid were examined. Although both dimensions are capable of isomer identification, ion mobility is much better at determining the site of modification. In general, separation of isomeric forms by ion mobility is possible but does not follow predictable trends dictated by sequence or fragment-ion length. In most cases, however, the site of isomerization can be precisely determined.

Investigating the interactions of the first 17 amino acid residues of Huntingtin with lipid vesicles using mass spectrometry and molecular dynamics. JOURNAL OF MASS SPECTROMETRY : JMS 2020; 55:e4470. [PMID: 31756784 PMCID: PMC7342490 DOI: 10.1002/jms.4470] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2019] [Revised: 10/04/2019] [Accepted: 10/28/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
The first 17 amino acid residues of Huntingtin protein (Nt17 of htt) are thought to play an important role in the protein's function; Nt17 is one of two membrane binding domains in htt. In this study the binding ability of Nt17 peptide with vesicles comprised of two subclasses of phospholipids is studied using electrospray ionization - mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Overall, the peptide is shown to have a greater propensity to interact with vesicles of phosphatidylcholine (PC) rather than phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) lipids. Mass spectra show an increase in lipid-bound peptide adducts where the ordering of the number of such specie is 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DOPC) > 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) > 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3 phosphoethanolamine (POPE). MD simulations suggest that the compactness of the bilayer plays a role in governing peptide interactions. The peptide shows greater disruption of the DOPC bilayer order at the surface and interacts with the hydrophobic tails of lipid molecules via hydrophobic residues. Conversely, the POPE vesicle remains ordered and lipids display transient interactions with the peptide through the formation of hydrogen bonds with hydrophilic residues. The POPC system displays intermediate behavior with regard to the degree of peptide-membrane interaction. Finally, the simulations suggest a helix stabilizing effect resulting from the interactions between hydrophobic residues and the lipid tails of the DOPC bilayer.

Abstract
Ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry and quantum chemical calculations are used to determine the structures and stabilities of singly protonated XaaProGlyGly peptides: H+DPGG, H+NPGG, H+EPGG, and H+QPGG. The IMS distributions are similar, suggesting the peptides adopt closely related structures in the gas phase. Quantum chemical calculations show that all conformers seen in the experimental spectrum correspond to the cis configuration about the Xaa-Pro peptide bond, significantly different from the behavior seen previously for H+GPGG. Density functional theory and quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) investigations uncover a silent drama as a minor conformer not observed in the H+DPGG spectrum becomes the preferred conformer in H+QPGG, with both conformers being coincident in collision cross section. Investigation of the highly coupled hydrogen bond network, replete with CH···O interactions and bifurcated hydrogen bonds, reveals the cause of this effect as well as the absence of trans conformers from the spectra. A series of generalized observations are provided to aid in enzyme and ligand design using these coupled hydrogen bond motifs.

Abstract
Hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX MS) has become an important technique for the analysis of protein structure and dynamics. Data analysis remains a bottleneck in the workflow. Sophisticated computer analysis is required to scan through the voluminous MS output in order to find, identify, and validate many partially deuterated peptides, elicit the HDX information, and extend the results to higher structural resolution. We previously made available two software suites, ExMS for identification and analysis of peptide isotopic envelopes in the HDX MS raw data and HDsite for residue-level resolution. Further experience has led to advances in the usability and performance of both programs. Also, newly added modules deal with ETD/ECD analysis, multimodal mass spectra analysis, and presentation options. These advances have been integrated into a stand-alone software solution named ExMS2. The package has been successfully tested by many workers in fine scale epitope mapping, in protein folding studies, and in dissecting structure and structure change of large protein complexes. A description and tutorial for this major upgrade are given here.

Abstract
Ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry (IMS-MS) combined with gas-phase hydrogen-deuterium exchange has been used to characterize novel psychoactive substances (NPSs) which are small synthetic compounds designed to mimic the effects of other illicit substances. Here, NPSs containing labile heteroatom hydrogens were evaluated for HDX reactivity in the presence of either deuterated water (D2O) or ammonia (ND3) within the drift tube. An initial evaluation of exchange propensity was performed for six NPSs. Five compounds exchanged in the presence of ND3 while only one NPS (benzyl piperazine) exchanged with D2O. The exchange mechanism of D2O requires stabilization with a nearby charged site; the diamine ring of benzyl piperazine provided this charge site at a fixed length. Three disubstituted benzene isomers ( o-, m-, and p-fluorophenyl piperazine) containing the diamine ring structure and a fluorine atom were subsequently analyzed. Having identical isotopic composition and nearly identical drift time distributions, these isomers could not be distinguished by IMS-MS alone. However, upon undergoing HDX in the drift tube, a t test of means (α = 0.05) showed that discrimination was possible if the exchange data from both reagent gases were included. Molecular dynamics simulations show that the proximity of the fluorine to the diamine ring hinders the dihedral angle rotation between the benzene and the diamine ring; this may partially account for the observed exchange differences.

Abstract
The dominant gas-phase conformer of [M+3H]3+ ions of the model peptide acetyl-PSSSSKSSSSKSSSSKSSSSK has been examined with ion mobility spectrometry (IMS), gas-phase hydrogen deuterium exchange (HDX), and mass spectrometry (MS) techniques. The [M+3H]3+ peptide ions are observed predominantly as a relatively compact conformer type. Upon subjecting these ions to electron transfer dissociation (ETD), the level of protection for each amino acid residue in the peptide sequence is assessed. The overall per-residue deuterium uptake is observed to be relatively more efficient for the neutral residues than for the model peptide acetyl-PAAAAKAAAAKAAAAKAAAAK. In comparison, the N-terminal and C-terminal regions of the serine peptide show greater relative protection compared with interior residues. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been used to generate candidate structures for collision cross section and HDX reactivity matching. Hydrogen accessibility scoring (HAS) for select structural candidates from MD simulations has been used to suggest conformer types that could contribute to the observed HDX patterns. The results are discussed with respect to recent studies employing extensive MD simulations of gas-phase structure establishment of a peptide system. Graphical Abstract ᅟ.
