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
Metabolic reprogramming is a typical hallmark of cancer. Enhanced glycolysis in tumor cells leads to the accumulation of lactate, which is traditionally considered metabolic waste. With the development of high-resolution liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), the lactate-derived, lysine lactylation(Kla), has been identified. Kla can alter the spatial configuration of chromatin and regulate the expression of corresponding genes. Metabolic reprogramming and epigenetic remodeling have been extensively linked. Accumulating studies have subsequently expanded the framework on the key roles of this protein translational modification (PTM) in tumors and have provided a new concept of cancer-specific regulation by Kla.

J Chromatogr A 2024; 1718:464714. [PMID: 38359688 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2024.464714] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 01/22/2024] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024]
Abstract
The development of a peptide retention prediction model for reversed-phase chromatography applications in proteomics is reported for peptides carrying phosphorylated Ser, Thr and Tyr-residues. The major retention features have been assessed using a collection of over 10,000 phosphorylated/non-phosphorylated peptide pairs identified in a series 1D and 2D LC-MS/MS acquisitions using formic acid as ion pairing modifier. Single modification event on average results in increased peptide retention for phosphorylation of Ser (+ 1.46), Thr (+1.33), Tyr (+0.93% acetonitrile, ACN) on gradient elution scale for Luna C18(2) stationary phase. We established several composition and sequence specific features, which drive deviations from these average values. Thus, single phosphorylation of serine results in retention shifts ranging from -2.4 to 5.5% ACN depending on position of the residue, nature of nearest neighbour residues, peptide length, hydrophobicity and pI value, and its propensity to form amphipathic helical structures. We established that the altered ion-pairing environment upon phosphorylation is detrimental for this variability. Hydrophobicity of ion-pairing modifier directly informs the magnitude of expected shifts: (most hydrophilic) 0.5 % acetic acid (larger positive shift upon phosphorylation) > 0.1 % formic acid (positive) > 0.1 % trifluoroacetic (negative) > 0.1 % heptafluorobutyric acid (larger negative shift). The effect of phosphorylation has been also evaluated for several separation conditions used in the first dimension of 2D LC applications: high pH reversed-phase (RP), hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC), strong cation- and strong anion exchange separations.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) have been extensively studied in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Lysine acetylation, originally thought to be a rare occurrence in bacteria, is now recognized as a prevalent and important PTM in more than 50 species. This expansion in interest in bacterial PTMs became possible with the advancement of mass spectrometry technology and improved reagents such as acyl-modification specific antibodies. In this Review, we discuss how mass spectrometry-based proteomic studies of lysine acetylation and other acyl modifications have contributed to our understanding of bacterial physiology, focusing on recently published studies from 2018 to 2023. We begin with a discussion of approaches used to study bacterial PTMs. Next, we discuss newly characterized acylomes, including acetylomes, succinylomes, and malonylomes, in different bacterial species. In addition, we examine proteomic contributions to our understanding of bacterial virulence and biofilm formation. Finally, we discuss the contributions of mass spectrometry to our understanding of the mechanisms of acetylation, both enzymatic and nonenzymatic. We end with a discussion of the current state of the field and possible future research avenues to explore.

Abstract
Over 400 different types of post-translational modifications (PTMs) have been reported and over 200 various types of PTMs have been discovered using mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics. MS-based proteomics has proven to be a powerful method capable of global PTM mapping with the identification of modified proteins/peptides, the localization of PTM sites and PTM quantitation. PTMs play regulatory roles in protein functions, activities and interactions in various heart related diseases, such as ischemia/reperfusion injury, cardiomyopathy and heart failure. The recognition of PTMs that are specific to cardiovascular pathology and the clarification of the mechanisms underlying these PTMs at molecular levels are crucial for discovery of novel biomarkers and application in a clinical setting. With sensitive MS instrumentation and novel biostatistical methods for precise processing of the data, low-abundance PTMs can be successfully detected and the beneficial or unfavorable effects of specific PTMs on cardiac function can be determined. Moreover, computational proteomic strategies that can predict PTM sites based on MS data have gained an increasing interest and can contribute to characterization of PTM profiles in cardiovascular disorders. More recently, machine learning- and deep learning-based methods have been employed to predict the locations of PTMs and explore PTM crosstalk. In this review article, the types of PTMs are briefly overviewed, approaches for PTM identification/quantitation in MS-based proteomics are discussed and recently published proteomic studies on PTMs associated with cardiovascular diseases are included.

Abstract
Glycoproteomics has accelerated in recent decades owing to numerous innovations in the analytical workflow. In particular, new mass spectrometry strategies have contributed to inroads in O-glycoproteomics, a field that lags behind N-glycoproteomics due to several unique challenges associated with the complexity of O-glycosylation. This review will focus on progress in sample preparation, enrichment strategies, and MS/MS techniques for the identification and characterization of O-glycoproteins.

Abstract
Chemical reagents with special groups as enrichable handles have empowered the ability to label and enrich modified peptides. Here is an overview of different chemical reagents with affinity tags to isolate labeled peptides and the latest developments of enrichment strategies. Biotin is the most used affinity tag due to its high interaction with avidin. To decrease the unfavorable influence of biotin for its poor efficiency in ionization and fragmentation in downstream MS analysis, cleavable moieties were installed between the reactive groups and biotin to release labeled peptides from the biotin. To minimize the steric hindrance of biotin, a two-step method was developed, for which alkyne- or azide-tagged linkers were firstly used to label peptides and then biotin was installed through click chemistry. Recently, new linkers using a small phosphonic acid as the affinity tag for IMAC or TiO2 enrichment have been developed and successfully used to isolate chemically labeled peptides in XL-MS. A stable P-C instead of P-O bond was introduced to linkers to differentiate labeled and endogenous phosphopeptides. Furthermore, a membrane-permeable phosphonate-containing reagent was reported, which facilitated the study of living systems. Taking a cue from classic chemical reactions, stable metal-complex intermediates, including cobalt and palladium complexes, have been developed as peptide purification systems. Advanced enrichment strategies have also been proposed, such as the two-stage IMAC enrichment method and biotin-based two-step reaction strategy, allowing the reduction of unwanted peptides and improvements for the analysis of specific labeled peptides. Finally, future trends in the area are briefly discussed.

Abstract
Proteogenomics refers to the integration of comprehensive genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic measurements from the same samples with the goal of fully understanding the regulatory processes converting genotypes to phenotypes, often with an emphasis on gaining a deeper understanding of disease processes. Although specific genetic mutations have long been known to drive the development of multiple cancers, gene mutations alone do not always predict prognosis or response to targeted therapy. The benefit of proteogenomics research is that information obtained from proteins and their corresponding pathways provides insight into therapeutic targets that can complement genomic information by providing an additional dimension regarding the underlying mechanisms and pathophysiology of tumors. This review describes the novel insights into tumor biology and drug resistance derived from proteogenomic analysis while highlighting the clinical potential of proteogenomic observations and advances in technique and analysis tools.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and Huntington's disease, are identified and characterized by the progressive loss of neurons and neuronal dysfunction, resulting in cognitive and motor impairment. Recent research has shown the importance of PTMs, such as phosphorylation, acetylation, methylation, ubiquitination, sumoylation, nitration, truncation, O-GlcNAcylation, and hydroxylation, in the progression of neurodegenerative disorders. PTMs can alter protein structure and function, affecting protein stability, localization, interactions, and enzymatic activity. Aberrant PTMs can lead to protein misfolding and aggregation, impaired degradation, and clearance, and ultimately, to neuronal dysfunction and death. The main objective of this review is to provide an overview of the PTMs involved in neurodegeneration, their underlying mechanisms, methods to isolate PTMs, and the potential therapeutic targets for these disorders. The PTMs discussed in this article include tau phosphorylation, α-synuclein and Huntingtin ubiquitination, histone acetylation and methylation, and RNA modifications. Understanding the role of PTMs in neurodegenerative diseases may provide new therapeutic strategies for these devastating disorders.

Abstract
This perspective article is concerned with the question of how proteomics, which is a core technique of systems biology that is deeply embedded in the multi-omics field of modern bioresearch, can help us better understand the molecular pathogenesis of complex diseases. As an illustrative example of a monogenetic disorder that primarily affects the neuromuscular system but is characterized by a plethora of multi-system pathophysiological alterations, the muscle-wasting disease Duchenne muscular dystrophy was examined. Recent achievements in the field of dystrophinopathy research are described with special reference to the proteome-wide complexity of neuromuscular changes and body-wide alterations/adaptations. Based on a description of the current applications of top-down versus bottom-up proteomic approaches and their technical challenges, future systems biological approaches are outlined. The envisaged holistic and integromic bioanalysis would encompass the integration of diverse omics-type studies including inter- and intra-proteomics as the core disciplines for systematic protein evaluations, with sophisticated biomolecular analyses, including physiology, molecular biology, biochemistry and histochemistry. Integrated proteomic findings promise to be instrumental in improving our detailed knowledge of pathogenic mechanisms and multi-system dysfunction, widening the available biomarker signature of dystrophinopathy for improved diagnostic/prognostic procedures, and advancing the identification of novel therapeutic targets to treat Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Abstract
Mitochondria are multifaceted organelles with key roles in anabolic and catabolic metabolism, bioenergetics, cellular signalling and nutrient sensing, and programmed cell death processes. Their diverse functions are enabled by a sophisticated set of protein components encoded by the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. The extent and complexity of the mitochondrial proteome remained unclear for decades. This began to change 20 years ago when, driven by the emergence of mass spectrometry-based proteomics, the first draft mitochondrial proteomes were established. In the ensuing decades, further technological and computational advances helped to refine these 'maps', with current estimates of the core mammalian mitochondrial proteome ranging from 1,000 to 1,500 proteins. The creation of these compendia provided a systemic view of an organelle previously studied primarily in a reductionist fashion and has accelerated both basic scientific discovery and the diagnosis and treatment of human disease. Yet numerous challenges remain in understanding mitochondrial biology and translating this knowledge into the medical context. In this Roadmap, we propose a path forward for refining the mitochondrial protein map to enhance its discovery and therapeutic potential. We discuss how emerging technologies can assist the detection of new mitochondrial proteins, reveal their patterns of expression across diverse tissues and cell types, and provide key information on proteoforms. We highlight the power of an enhanced map for systematically defining the functions of its members. Finally, we examine the utility of an expanded, functionally annotated mitochondrial proteome in a translational setting for aiding both diagnosis of mitochondrial disease and targeting of mitochondria for treatment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Around 20% of individuals diagnosed with acute pancreatitis (AP) may develop severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), possibly resulting in a mortality rate ranging from 15% to 35%. There is an urgent need to thoroughly understand the molecular phenotypes of SAP resulting from diverse etiologies. The field of translational research on AP has seen the use of several innovative proteomic methodologies via the ongoing improvement of isolation, tagging, and quantification methods. AREAS COVERED This paper provides a comprehensive overview of differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) identified in AP by searching the PubMed/MEDLINE database (2003-2023) and adds significantly to the current theoretical framework. EXPERT OPINION DAPs for potentially diagnosing AP based on proteomic identification need to be confirmed by multi-center studies that include larger samples. The discovery of DAPs in various organs at different AP stages via proteomic technologies is essential better to understand the pathophysiology of AP-related multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. Regarding the translational research of AP, novel approaches like single-cell proteomics and imaging using mass spectrometry may be used as soon as they become available.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death. Despite advances in treatment, drug resistance remains a critical impediment. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) regulate protein stability, localization, and activity, impacting vital cellular processes. Recent research has highlighted the essential role of PTMs in the development of CRC resistance. This review summarizes recent advancements in understanding PTMs' roles in CRC resistance, focusing on the latest discoveries. We discuss the functional impact of PTMs on signaling pathways and molecules involved in CRC resistance, progress in drug development, and potential therapeutic targets. We also summarize the primary enrichment methods for PTMs. Finally, we discuss current challenges and future directions, including the need for more comprehensive PTM analysis methods and PTM-targeted therapies. This review identifies potential therapeutic interventions for addressing medication resistance in CRC, proposes prospective therapeutic options, and gives an overview of the function of PTMs in CRC resistance.

Abstract
The combined activity of epigenetic features, which include histone post-translational modifications, DNA methylation, and nucleosome positioning, regulates gene expression independently from changes in the DNA sequence, defining how the shared genetic information of an organism is used to generate different cell phenotypes. Alterations in epigenetic processes have been linked with a multitude of diseases, including cancer, fueling interest in the discovery of drugs targeting the proteins responsible for writing, erasing, or reading histone and DNA modifications. Mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics has emerged as a versatile tool that can assist drug discovery pipelines from target validation, through target deconvolution, to monitoring drug efficacy in vivo. Here, we provide an overview of the contributions of MS-based proteomics to epigenetic drug discovery, describing the main approaches that can be used to support different drug discovery pipelines and highlighting how they contributed to the development and characterization of epigenetic drugs.

Abstract
Flaxseed has been recognized as a valuable source of nutrients and bioactive compounds, including proteins that possess various health benefits. In recent years, studies have shown that flaxseed proteins, including albumins, globulins, glutelin, and prolamins, possess anti-cancer properties. These properties are attributed to their ability to inhibit cancer cell proliferation, induce apoptosis, and interfere with cancer cell signaling pathways, ultimately leading to the inhibition of metastasis. Moreover, flaxseed proteins have been reported to modulate cancer cell mechanobiology, leading to changes in cell behavior and reduced cancer cell migration and invasion. This review provides an overview of the anti-cancer properties of flaxseed proteins, with a focus on their potential use in cancer treatment. Additionally, it highlights the need for further research to fully establish the potential of flaxseed proteins in cancer therapy.

Abstract
The ubiquity of mass spectrometry-based bottom-up proteomic analyses as a component of biological investigation mandates the validation of methodologies that increase acquisition efficiency, improve sample coverage, and enhance profiling depth. Chromatographic separation is often ignored as an area of potential improvement, with most analyses relying on traditional reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC); this consistent reliance on a single chromatographic paradigm fundamentally limits our view of the observable proteome. Herein, we build upon early reports and validate porous graphitic carbon chromatography (PGC) as a facile means to substantially enhance proteomic coverage without changes to sample preparation, instrument configuration, or acquisition methods. Analysis of offline fractionated cell line digests using both separations revealed an increase in peptide and protein identifications by 43% and 24%, respectively. Increased identifications provided more comprehensive coverage of cellular components and biological processes independent of protein abundance, highlighting the substantial quantity of proteomic information that may go undetected in standard analyses. We further utilize these data to reveal that label-free quantitative analyses using RPLC separations alone may not be reflective of actual protein constituency. Together, these data highlight the value and comprehension offered through PGC-MS proteomic analyses. RAW proteomic data have been uploaded to the MassIVE repository with the primary accession code MSV000091495.

Abstract
Voluntary striated muscles are characterized by a highly complex and dynamic proteome that efficiently adapts to changed physiological demands or alters considerably during pathophysiological dysfunction. The skeletal muscle proteome has been extensively studied in relation to myogenesis, fiber type specification, muscle transitions, the effects of physical exercise, disuse atrophy, neuromuscular disorders, muscle co-morbidities and sarcopenia of old age. Since muscle tissue accounts for approximately 40% of body mass in humans, alterations in the skeletal muscle proteome have considerable influence on whole-body physiology. This review outlines the main bioanalytical avenues taken in the proteomic characterization of skeletal muscle tissues, including top-down proteomics focusing on the characterization of intact proteoforms and their post-translational modifications, bottom-up proteomics, which is a peptide-centric method concerned with the large-scale detection of proteins in complex mixtures, and subproteomics that examines the protein composition of distinct subcellular fractions. Mass spectrometric studies over the last two decades have decisively improved our general cell biological understanding of protein diversity and the heterogeneous composition of individual myofibers in skeletal muscles. This detailed proteomic knowledge can now be integrated with findings from other omics-type methodologies to establish a systems biological view of skeletal muscle function.

Abstract
Knowing that an antibody's sensitivity and specificity is accurate is crucial for reliable data collection. This certainty is especially difficult to achieve for antibodies (Abs) which bind post-translationally modified proteins. Here we describe two validation methods using surrogate proteins in western blot and ELISA. The first method, which we termed "MILKSHAKE" is a modified maltose binding protein, hence the name, that is enzymatically conjugated to a peptide from the chosen target which is either modified or non-modified at the residue of interest. The surety of the residue's modification status can be used to confirm Ab specificity to the target's post-translational modification (PTM). The second method uses a set of surrogate proteins, which we termed "Sundae". Sundae consists of a set of modified maltose binding proteins with a genetically encoded target sequence, each of which contains a single amino acid substitution at one position of interest. With Sundae, Abs can be evaluated for binding specificities to all twenty amino acids at a single position. Combining MILKSHAKE and Sundae methods, Ab specificity can be determined at a single-residue resolution. These data improve evaluation of commercially available Abs and identify off-target effects for Research-Use-Only and therapeutic Abs.

Abstract
Novel hydrophilic poly(N, N-methylenebisacrylamide/1,2-epoxy-5-hexene) coated magnetic nanospheres functionalized with 2-aminopurine (denoted as Fe3O4@poly(MBA/EH)@2AP) for enriching glycopeptides and glycosylated exosomes were successfully obtained using a simple and green method on the basis of the HILIC (hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography) enrichment strategy. The high density of polar groups endows the material with amazing hydrophilicity, enabling the nanomaterial to successfully capture glycopeptides and glycosylated exosomes within 1 min. Meanwhile, the materials demonstrated great sensitivity (0.01 fmol/μL), good loading capability (125 μg/mg), high selectivity (BSA:HRP = 1000:1), and repeatability (more than 10 times). Besides, the material was applied in the analysis of bio-samples, a total of 290 glycosylated peptides and 184 glycosylation sites mapping to 185 glycoproteins were identified in the serum of uremic patients. Besides, 42 glycopeptides were enriched from the saliva of healthy people. At the same time, it was verified by TEM and western blot that the complete glycosylated exosomes were successfully captured from the serum of the uremic patients. All experiments have demonstrated that Fe3O4@poly(MBA/EH)@2AP has a promising future in practical applications.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Skeletal muscles contain large numbers of high-molecular-mass protein complexes in elaborate membrane systems. Integral membrane proteins are involved in diverse cellular functions including the regulation of ion handling, membrane homeostasis, energy metabolism and force transmission. AREAS COVERED The proteomic profiling of membrane proteins and large protein assemblies in skeletal muscles are outlined in this article. This includes a critical overview of the main biochemical separation techniques and the mass spectrometric approaches taken to study membrane proteins. As an illustrative example of an analytically challenging large protein complex, the proteomic detection and characterization of the Ca2+-ATPase of the sarcoplasmic reticulum is discussed. The biological role of this large protein complex during normal muscle functioning, in the context of fiber type diversity and in relation to mechanisms of physiological adaptations and pathophysiological abnormalities is evaluated from a proteomics perspective. EXPERT OPINION Mass spectrometry-based muscle proteomics has decisively advanced the field of basic and applied myology. Although it is technically challenging to study membrane proteins, innovations in protein separation methodology in combination with sensitive mass spectrometry and improved systems bioinformatics has allowed the detailed proteomic detection and characterization of skeletal muscle membrane protein complexes, such as Ca2+-pump proteins of the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation is a ubiquitous post-translational modification controlled by the opposing activities of protein kinases and phosphatases, which regulate diverse biological processes in all kingdoms of life. One of the key challenges to a complete understanding of phosphoregulatory networks is the unambiguous identification of kinase and phosphatase substrates. Liquid chromatography-coupled mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and associated phosphoproteomic tools enable global surveys of phosphoproteome changes in response to signaling events or perturbation of phosphoregulatory network components. Despite the power of LC-MS/MS, it is still challenging to directly link kinases and phosphatases to specific substrate phosphorylation sites in many experiments. Here, we survey common LC-MS/MS-based phosphoproteomic workflows for identifying protein kinase and phosphatase substrates, noting key advantages and limitations of each. We conclude by discussing the value of inducible degradation technologies coupled with phosphoproteomics as a new approach that overcomes some limitations of current methods for substrate identification of kinases, phosphatases, and other regulatory enzymes.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry (MS) has become the central technique that is extensively used for the analysis of molecular structures of unknown compounds in the gas phase. It manipulates the molecules by converting them into ions using various ionization sources. With high-resolution MS, accurate molecular weights (MW) of the intact molecular ions can be measured so that they can be assigned a molecular formula with high confidence. Furthermore, the application of tandem MS has enabled detailed structural characterization by breaking the intact molecular ions and protonated or deprotonated molecules into key fragment ions. This approach is not only used for the structural elucidation of small molecules (MW < 2000 Da), but also crucial biopolymers such as proteins and polypeptides; therefore, MS has been extensively used in multiomics studies for revealing the structures and functions of important biomolecules and their interactions with each other. The high sensitivity of MS has enabled the analysis of low-level analytes in complex matrices. It is also a versatile technique that can be coupled with separation techniques, including chromatography and ion mobility, and many other analytical instruments such as NMR. In this review, we aim to focus on the technical advances of MS-based structural elucidation methods over the past five years, and provide an overview of their applications in complex mixture analysis. We hope this review can be of interest for a wide range of audiences who may not have extensive experience in MS-based techniques.
