Abstract
Recent advancements in mass spectrometry (MS) have revolutionized quantitative proteomics, with multiplex isotope labeling emerging as a key strategy for enhancing accuracy, precision, and throughput. This tutorial review offers a comprehensive overview of multiplex isotope labeling techniques, including precursor-based, mass defect-based, reporter ion-based, and hybrid labeling methods. It details their fundamental principles, advantages, and inherent limitations along with strategies to mitigate the limitation of ratio-distortion. This review will also cover the applications and latest progress in these labeling techniques across various domains, including cancer biomarker discovery, neuroproteomics, post-translational modification analysis, cross-linking MS, and single-cell proteomics. This Review aims to provide guidance for researchers on selecting appropriate methods for their specific goals while also highlighting the potential future directions in this rapidly evolving field.

Abstract
Characterization of protein arginine dimethylation presents significant challenges due to its occurrence at the substoichiometric level. To enable a targeted MS/MS analysis of these dimethylation sites, we developed the mNeuCode (methyl-neutron-coding) tag by metabolically labeling methylarginine with stable isotopes during cell culture, which generated a diagnostic peak containing the NeuCode isotopologue signature in a high-resolution MS scan. A software tool, termed NeuCodeFinder, was developed for screening the NeuCode signatures in mass spectra. Therefore, a targeted MS/MS workflow was established for proteome-wide discovery of arginine dimethylation. The efficacy and utility were demonstrated by identifying 176 arginine dimethylation sites residing on 70 proteins in HeLa cells. Among them, 38% of the sites and 29% of the dimethylated proteins are novel, including five novel arginine dimethylation sites on the protein FAM98A, which is a substrate of protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1). Our results show that deletion of FAM98A in HeLa cells suppressed cell migration, and importantly, dimethylation-deficient mutation suppressed this process as well. Therefore, the PRMT1-FAM98A pathway mediates cell migration possibly through dimethylation of these newly identified sites of FAM98A. Our study might drive the methodological shift from shotgun-based to targeted proteome analysis for interrogation of the substoichiometric biomolecules by using NeuCode-enabled techniques.

Abstract
This review is the tenth update of the original article published in 1999 on the application of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry to the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2020. Also included are papers that describe methods appropriate to analysis by MALDI, such as sample preparation techniques, even though the ionization method is not MALDI. The review is basically divided into three sections: (1) general aspects such as theory of the MALDI process, matrices, derivatization, MALDI imaging, fragmentation, quantification and the use of arrays. (2) Applications to various structural types such as oligo- and polysaccharides, glycoproteins, glycolipids, glycosides and biopharmaceuticals, and (3) other areas such as medicine, industrial processes and glycan synthesis where MALDI is extensively used. Much of the material relating to applications is presented in tabular form. The reported work shows increasing use of incorporation of new techniques such as ion mobility and the enormous impact that MALDI imaging is having. MALDI, although invented nearly 40 years ago is still an ideal technique for carbohydrate analysis and advancements in the technique and range of applications show little sign of diminishing.

Abstract
Comprehensive analysis of protein glycation is important for better understanding of its formation mechanism and biological significance. The current preconcentration methods of glycated proteome mainly depend on the reversible combination of boronic acid and cis-dihydroxy group by pH adjustment, but it has inherent limitations (e.g., poor specificity and time-consuming). Herein, for the first time, a novel enrichment method for glycated peptides is proposed based on the reversible chemical reaction between aldehyde and 1,2-aminothiol groups, in which oxidized glycated peptides are captured onto the magnetic nanoparticles via thiazolidine chemistry and then released by palladium-mediated cleavage. The method is rapid, with excellent selectivity (even at a 1:1000 molar ratio of glycated peptides/nonglycated peptides) and high sensitivity (1 fmol/μL). As a good evidence, 1549 glycated peptides were identified from glycated human serum with 94.6% specificity, providing a powerful technique for high-throughput analysis of glycated peptides.

Abstract
Intact glycopeptide identification has long been known as a key and challenging barrier to the comprehensive and accurate understanding the role of glycosylation in an organism. Intact glycopeptide analysis is a blossoming field that has received increasing attention in recent years. MS-based strategies and relative software tools are major drivers that have greatly facilitated the analysis of intact glycopeptides, particularly intact N-glycopeptides. This article provides a systematic review of the intact glycopeptide-identification process using MS data generated in shotgun proteomic experiments, which typically focus on N-glycopeptide analysis. Particular attention is paid to the software tools that have been recently developed in the last decade for the interpretation and quality control of glycopeptide spectra acquired using different MS strategies. The review also provides information about the characteristics and applications of these software tools, discusses their advantages and disadvantages, and concludes with a discussion of outstanding tools.
