Polysaccharides from bile Arisaema exert an antipyretic effect on yeast-induced fever rats through regulating gut microbiota and metabolic profiling. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 278:134823. [PMID: 39168226 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134823] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2024] [Revised: 08/11/2024] [Accepted: 08/15/2024] [Indexed: 08/23/2024]
Abstract
In our previous study, bile Arisaema was elucidated to have a significant anti-febrile effect, but the pharmacodynamic material basis of this effect remains uncertain. Herein, we found that the soluble polysaccharide fraction from bile Arisaema presents a remarkable antipyretic effect through balancing the gut microbiota and regulating metabolic profiling. Bile Arisaema polysaccharide (BAP) was characterized for its monosaccharide composition with arabinose, galactose, glucose, mannose and xylose (0.028:0.072:0.821:0.05:0.029, molar ratios) and amino acid composition with arginine, threonine, alanine, glycine, serine, proline and tyrosine (109.33, 135.78, 7.22, 8.86, 21.07, 4.96, 12.31 μg/mg). A total of 50 peptides were identified from BAP using Ltq-Orbitrap MS/MS. The oral administration of 100 mg/kg BAP significantly increased the antipyretic effect in yeast-induced fever rats by comparing the rectal temperature. Mechanistically, the inflammation and disorders of neurotransmitters caused by fever were improved by treatment with BAP. The western blotting results suggested that BAP could suppress fever-induced inflammation by down-regulating the NF-κB/TLR4/MyD88 signaling pathway. We also demonstrated that BAP affects lipid metabolism, amino acid metabolism and carbohydrate metabolism and balances the gut microbiota. In summary, the present study provides a crucial foundation for determining polysaccharide activity in bile Arisaema and further investigating the underlying mechanism of action.

Abstract
Long-lived proteins undergo chemical modifications that can cause age-related diseases. Among these chemical modifications, isomerization is the most difficult to identify. Isomerization often occurs at the aspartic acid (Asp) residues. In this study, we used tandem mass spectrometry equipped with a newly developed ion activation method, hydrogen attachment dissociation (HAD), to analyze peptides containing Asp isomers. Although HAD preferentially produces [cn + 2H]+ and [zm + 2H]+ via N-Cα bond cleavage, [cn + 58 + 2H]+ and [zm - 58 + 2H]+ originate from the fragmentation of the isoAsp residue. Notably, [cn + 58 + 2H]+ and [zm - 58 + 2H]+ could be used as diagnostic fragment ions for the isoAsp residue because these fragment ions did not originate from the Asp residue. The detailed fragmentation mechanism was investigated by computational analysis using density functional theory. According to the results, hydrogen attachment to the carbonyl oxygen in the isoAsp residue results in the Cα-Cβ bond cleavage. The experimental and theoretical joint study indicates that the present method allows us to discriminate Asp and isoAsp residues, including site identification of the isoAsp residue. Moreover, we demonstrated that the molar ratio of peptide isomers in the mixture could be estimated from their fragment ion abundance. Therefore, tandem mass spectrometry with HAD is a useful method for the rapid discrimination and semiquantitative analysis of peptides containing isoAsp residues.

Abstract
In miniature ion trap mass spectrometry, achieving a balance between isolation resolution and efficiency is a formidable challenge. The presence of absorption curves causes target ions to inadvertently absorb energy from AC signal components near their resonant frequencies. To mitigate this issue, SAM-SFM waveforms introduce a parameter known as the decreasing factor. Unlike SWIFT waveforms, SAM-SFM's spectral profile intentionally departs from a rectangular window, adopting an arch-shaped excitation window to minimize the impact on target ions and improve ion isolation efficiency. SAM-SFM waveforms have the advantage of low computational complexity, enabling real-time computation using an embedded FPGA technology. Regardless of any parameter changes, the FPGA can consistently guarantee waveform output within 1 μs. This not only enhances throughput but also eliminates the need for a PC in miniature mass spectrometry devices. The performance of SAM-SFM has been validated on an improved "Brick" miniature ion trap mass spectrometer. Comparative experiments with SWIFT waveforms confirm the lossless unit-mass isolation capabilities of SAM-SFM. This waveform has the capability to simultaneously isolate multiple target ions, even allowing for the lossless isolation of ions with lower abundance within isotopic clusters, albeit at the cost of requiring extended isolation durations.

Abstract
Drug resistance remains one of the main causes of poor outcome in cancer therapy. It is also becoming evident that drug resistance to both chemotherapy and to antibiotics is driven by more than one mechanism. So far, there are at least eight recognized mechanisms behind such resistance. In this review, we choose to discuss one of these mechanisms, which is known to be partially driven by a class of transmembrane proteins known as ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. In normal tissues, ABC transporters protect the cells from the toxic effects of xenobiotics, whereas in tumor cells, they reduce the intracellular concentrations of anticancer drugs, which ultimately leads to the emergence of multidrug resistance (MDR). A deeper understanding of the structures and the biology of these proteins is central to current efforts to circumvent resistance to both chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and antibiotics. Understanding the biology and the function of these proteins requires detailed structural and conformational information for this class of membrane proteins. For many years, such structural information has been mainly provided by X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy. More recently, mass spectrometry-based methods assumed an important role in the area of structural and conformational characterization of this class of proteins. The contribution of this technique to structural biology has been enhanced by its combination with liquid chromatography and ion mobility, as well as more refined labelling protocols and the use of more efficient fragmentation methods, which allow the detection and localization of labile post-translational modifications. In this review, we discuss the contribution of mass spectrometry to efforts to characterize some members of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) proteins and why such a contribution is relevant to efforts to clarify the link between the overexpression of these proteins and the most widespread mechanism of chemoresistance.

Abstract
Citrullination is an important post-translational modification (PTM) of arginine, known to play a role in autoimmune disorders, innate immunity response and maintenance of stem cell potency. However, citrullination remains poorly characterized and not as comprehensively understood compared to other PTMs, such as phosphorylation and ubiquitylation. High-resolution mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics offers a valuable approach for studying citrullination in an unbiased manner, allowing confident identification of citrullination modification sites and distinction from deamidation events on asparagine and glutamine. MS efforts have already provided valuable insights into peptidyl arginine deaminase targeting along with site-specific information of citrullination in for example synovial fluids derived from rheumatoid arthritis patients. Still, there is unrealized potential for the wider citrullination field by applying MS-based mass spectrometry approaches for proteome-wide investigations. Here we will outline contemporary methods and current challenges for studying citrullination by MS, and discuss how the development of neoteric citrullination-specific proteomics approaches still may improve our understanding of citrullination networks. This article is part of the Theo Murphy meeting issue 'The virtues and vices of protein citrullination'.

Abstract
Arsenic (As) is one of the most concerning elements due to its high exposure risks to organisms and ecosystems. The interaction between arsenicals and proteins plays a pivotal role in inducing their biological effects on living systems, e.g., arsenicosis. In this review article, the recent advances in analytical techniques and methods of As-binding proteomes were well summarized and discussed, including chromatographic separation and purification, biotin-streptavidin pull-down probes, in situ imaging using novel fluorescent probes, and protein identification. These analytical technologies could provide a growing body of knowledge regarding the composition, level, and distribution of As-binding proteomes in both cells and biological samples, even at the organellar level. The perspectives on analysis of As-binding proteomes are also proposed, e.g., isolation and identification of minor proteins, in vivo targeted protein degradation (TPD) technologies, and spatial As-binding proteomics. The application and development of sensitive, accurate, and high-throughput methodologies of As-binding proteomics would enable us to address the key molecular mechanisms underlying the adverse health effects of arsenicals.

Abstract
Genome mining and metabolomics have become valuable tools in natural products research to evaluate and identify potential new chemistry from bacteria. In the search for new compounds from the deep-sea organism, Pseudomonas sp. SST3, from the South Shetland Trough, Antarctica, a co-cultivation with a second deep-sea Pseudomonas zhaodongensis SST2, was undertaken to isolate pseudomonassin, a ribosomally synthesised and post-translationally modified peptide (RiPP) that belongs to a class of RiPP called lasso peptides. Pseudomonassin was identified using a genome-mining approach and isolated by means of mass spectrometric guided isolation. Extensive metabolomics analysis of the co-cultivation of Pseudomonas sp. SST3 and P. zhaodongensis SST2, Pseudomonas sp. SST3 and Escherichia coli, and P. zhaodongensis SST2 and E. coli were performed using principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal projections to latent structures discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), which revealed potential new metabolites in the outlier regions of the co-cultivation, with other metabolites identified previously from other species of Pseudomonas. The sequence of pseudomonassin was completely deduced using high collision dissociation tandem mass spectrometry (HCD-MS/MS). Preliminary studies on its activity against the pathogenic P. aeruginosa and its biofilm formation have been assessed and produced a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 63 μg/mL and 28 μg/mL, respectively.

Abstract
Retention time is one of the most important parameters that has been widely used to demonstrate the separation results obtained from liquid chromatography (LC) platforms. However, retention time can shift when samples are tested with different instruments and laboratories, which hinders the identification process of analytes when comparing data collected from different LC systems. To address this problem, hydrophobicity index was introduced for retention time normalization of the glycopeptides separated by reversed-phase LC (RPLC). Tandem MS was used for the detection and identification of glycopeptides. In addition, the influence of different types of glycans on the hydrophobicity of peptide backbones was studied by comparing the retention time of glycopeptides with their non-glycosylated counterparts. The hydrophobicity of tryptic digested glycopeptides derived from model glycoproteins, including bovine fetuin, α1-acid glycoprotein, and haptoglobin from human plasma, were evaluated based on the hydrophobicity index of the standard peptides from a peptide retention time calibration mixture. The reduction of hydrophobicity of multiple peptide backbones was observed due to the hydrophilic glycan structures. By comparing the hydrophobicity index of glycopeptides collected from different time and instruments, the day-to-day and lab-to-lab comparisons suggested high reliability and reproducibility of this approach. The RSD% of hydrophobicity index from inter-lab experiments was 1.2%, while the RSD% of retention time was 5.1%. Then, the applications of this method were demonstrated on complex glycopeptide samples extracted from human blood serum. The hydrophobicity index can be applied to address the retention time shift when using different instruments, thereby boosting confidence of the characterization of glycopeptides.

Abstract
Peptide sequencing is of great significance to fundamental and applied research in the fields such as chemical, biological, medicinal and pharmaceutical sciences. With the rapid development of mass spectrometry and sequencing algorithms, de-novo peptide sequencing using tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) has become the main method for determining amino acid sequences of novel and unknown peptides. Advanced algorithms allow the amino acid sequence information to be accurately obtained from MS/MS spectra in short time. In this review, algorithms from exhaustive search to the state-of-art machine learning and neural network for high-throughput and automated de-novo sequencing are introduced and compared. Impacts of datasets on algorithm performance are highlighted. The current limitations and promising direction of de-novo peptide sequencing are also discussed in this review.

Abstract
In mass spectrometry (MS)-based bottom-up proteomics, protease digestion plays an essential role in profiling both proteome sequences and post-translational modifications (PTMs). Trypsin is the gold standard in digesting intact proteins into small-size peptides, which are more suitable for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) separation and tandem MS (MS/MS) characterization. However, protein sequences lacking Lys and Arg cannot be cleaved by trypsin and may be missed in conventional proteomic analysis. Proteases with cleavage sites complementary to trypsin are widely applied in proteomic analysis to greatly improve the coverage of proteome sequences and PTM sites. In this review, we survey the common and newly emerging proteases used in proteomics analysis mainly in the last 5 years, focusing on their unique cleavage features and specific proteomics applications such as missing protein characterization, new PTM discovery, and de novo sequencing. In addition, we summarize the applications of proteases in structural proteomics and protein function analysis in recent years. Finally, we discuss the future development directions of new proteases and applications in proteomics.

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
Asphaltenes, a major and undesirable component of heavy crude oil, contain many different types of large aromatic compounds. These compounds include nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic compounds that are thought to be the main culprit in the deactivation of catalysts in crude oil refinery processes. Unfortunately, prevention of this is challenging as the structures and properties of the nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic compounds are poorly understood. To facilitate their structural characterization, an approach based on ion-trap collision-activated dissociation (ITCAD) tandem mass spectrometry followed by energy-resolved medium-energy collision-activated dissociation (ER-MCAD) was developed for the differentiation of seven isomeric molecular radical cations of n-pentylquinoline. The fragmentation of each isomer was found to be distinctly different and depended largely on the site of the alkyl side chain in the quinoline ring. In order to better understand the observed fragmentation pathways, mechanisms for the formation of several fragment ions were delineated based on quantum chemical calculations. The fast benzylic α-bond cleavage that dominates the fragmentation of analogous nonheteroaromatic alkylbenzenes was only observed for the 3-isomer as the major pathway due to the lack of favorable low-energy rearrangement reactions. All the other isomeric ions underwent substantially lower-energy rearrangement reactions as their alkyl chains were found to interact mostly via 6-membered transition states either with the quinoline nitrogen (2- and 8-isomers) or the adjacent carbon atom in the quinoline core (4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-isomers), which lowered the activation energies of the fragmentation reactions. The presented analytical approach will facilitate the structural characterization of nitrogen-containing heteroaromatic compounds in asphaltenes.

Abstract
Lactylation was initially discovered on human histones. Given its nascence, its occurrence on nonhistone proteins and downstream functional consequences remain elusive. Here we report a cyclic immonium ion of lactyllysine formed during tandem mass spectrometry that enables confident protein lactylation assignment. We validated the sensitivity and specificity of this ion for lactylation through affinity-enriched lactylproteome analysis and large-scale informatic assessment of nonlactylated spectral libraries. With this diagnostic ion-based strategy, we confidently determined new lactylation, unveiling a wide landscape beyond histones from not only the enriched lactylproteome but also existing unenriched human proteome resources. Specifically, by mining the public human Meltome Atlas, we found that lactylation is common on glycolytic enzymes and conserved on ALDOA. We also discovered prevalent lactylation on DHRS7 in the draft of the human tissue proteome. We partially demonstrated the functional importance of lactylation: site-specific engineering of lactylation into ALDOA caused enzyme inhibition, suggesting a lactylation-dependent feedback loop in glycolysis.

Abstract
Seminal fluid proteins (Sfps) modify female phenotypes and have wide-ranging evolutionary implications on fitness in many insects. However, in the Mexican fruit fly, Anastrepha ludens, a highly destructive agricultural pest, the functions of Sfps are still largely unknown. To gain insights into female phenotypes regulated by Sfps, we used nano-liquid chromatography mass spectrometry to conduct a proteomic analysis of the soluble proteins from reproductive organs of A. ludens. The proteins predicted to be transferred from males to females during copulation were 100 proteins from the accessory glands, 69 from the testes and 20 from the ejaculatory bulb, resulting in 141 unique proteins after accounting for redundancies from multiple tissues. These 141 included orthologues to Drosophila melanogaster proteins involved mainly in oogenesis, spermatogenesis, immune response, lifespan and fecundity. In particular, we found one protein associated with female olfactory response to repellent stimuli (Scribble), and two related to memory formation (aPKC and Shibire). Together, these results raise the possibility that A. ludens Sfps could play a role in regulating female olfactory responses and memory formation and could be indicative of novel evolutionary functions in this important agricultural pest.

Abstract
Peptide fragmentation spectra contain critical information for the identification of peptides by mass spectrometry. In this study, we developed an algorithm that more accurately predicts the high-intensity peaks among the peptide spectra. The training data are composed of 180,833 peptides from the National Institute of Standards and Technology and Proteomics Identification database, which were fragmented by either quadrupole time-of-flight or triple-quadrupole collision-induced dissociation methods. Exploratory analysis of the peptide fragmentation pattern was focused on the highest intensity peaks that showed proline, peptide length, and a sliding window of four amino acid combination that can be exploited as key features. The amino acid sequence of each peptide and each of the key features were allocated to different layers of the model, where recurrent neural network, convolutional neural network, and fully connected neural network were used. The trained model, PrAI-frag, accurately predicts the fragmentation spectra compared to previous machine learning-based prediction algorithms. The model excels at high-intensity peak prediction, which is advantageous to selective/multiple reaction monitoring application. PrAI-frag is provided via a Web server which can be used for peptides of length 6-15.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The comprehensive collection of peptides presented by Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) molecules on the cell surface is collectively known as the immunopeptidome. The analysis and interpretation of such data sets holds great promise for furthering our understanding of basic immunology and adaptive immune activation and regulation, and for direct rational discovery of T cell antigens and the design of T-cell based therapeutics and vaccines. These applications are however challenged by the complex nature of immunopeptidome data. AREAS COVERED Here, we describe the benefits and shortcomings of applying liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (MS) to obtain large scale immunopeptidome data sets and illustrate how the accurate analysis and optimal interpretation of such data is reliant on the availability of refined and highly optimized machine learning approaches. EXPERT OPINION Further we demonstrate how the accuracy of immunoinformatics prediction methods within the field of MHC antigen presentation has benefited greatly from the availability of MS-immunopeptidomics data, and exemplify how optimal antigen discovery is best performed in a synergistic combination of MS experiments and such in silico models trained on large scale immunopeptidomics data.

Abstract
Tandem mass spectrometry with fragmentation involving the reaction with hydrogen atoms is expected to be useful for the analysis of peptides and proteins. In general, hydrogen atoms preferentially react with odd-electron radicals. The attachment of hydrogen atoms to even-electron peptide ions is barely observed because of their low reaction rate. To date, only the methodology developed by our group has successfully induced the fragmentation of even-electron peptide ions by reacting with hydrogen atoms. In the present study, we focused on the temperature of the peptide ions and hydrogen atoms in an ion trap mass spectrometer to understand the mechanism of the corresponding reaction. Because the reaction between even-electron peptide ions and hydrogen atoms has a significant transition state barrier, the use of hot hydrogen atoms is required to initiate the reaction. The reaction contributes to increase the internal energy of the resultant peptide radicals because the heat of reaction and kinetic energy of the hydrogen atom are converted to the internal energy of the product. The resultant oxygen- and carbon-centered peptide radicals undergo radical-induced fragmentation with sub-picosecond and sub-millisecond time scales, respectively.

Abstract
The proteome represents all the proteins expressed by a genome, a cell, a tissue, or an organism at any given time under defined physiological or pathological circumstances. Proteomic analysis has provided unparalleled opportunities for the discovery of expression patterns of proteins in a biological system, yielding precise and inclusive data about the system. Advances in the proteomics field opened the door to wider knowledge of the mechanisms underlying various post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins, including glycosylation. As of yet, the role of most of these PTMs remains unidentified. In this state-of-the-art review, we present a synopsis of glycosylation processes and the pathophysiological conditions that might ensue secondary to glycosylation shortcomings. The dynamics of protein glycosylation, a crucial mechanism that allows gene and pathway regulation, is described. We also explain how-at a biomolecular level-mutations in glycosylation-related genes may lead to neuropsychiatric manifestations and neurodegenerative disorders. We then analyze the shortcomings of glycoproteomic studies, putting into perspective their downfalls and the different advanced enrichment techniques that emanated to overcome some of these challenges. Furthermore, we summarize studies tackling the association between glycosylation and neuropsychiatric disorders and explore glycoproteomic changes in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington disease, multiple sclerosis, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. We finally conclude with the role of glycomics in the area of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and provide perspectives on the clinical application of glycoproteomics as potential diagnostic tools and their application in personalized medicine.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) regulate complex biological processes through the modulation of protein activity, stability, and localization. Insights into the specific modification type and localization within a protein sequence can help ascertain functional significance. Computational models are increasingly demonstrated to offer a low-cost, high-throughput method for comprehensive PTM predictions. Algorithms are optimized using existing experimental PTM data, thus accurate prediction performance relies on the creation of robust datasets. Herein, advancements in mass spectrometry-based proteomics technologies to maximize PTM coverage are reviewed. Further, requisite experimental validation approaches for PTM predictions are explored to ensure that follow-up mechanistic studies are focused on accurate modification sites.

Abstract
VDAC (voltage-dependent anion selective channel) proteins, also known as mitochondrial porins, are the most abundant proteins of the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM), where they play a vital role in various cellular processes, in the regulation of metabolism, and in survival pathways. There is increasing consensus about their function as a cellular hub, connecting bioenergetics functions to the rest of the cell. The structural characterization of VDACs presents challenging issues due to their very high hydrophobicity, low solubility, the difficulty to separate them from other mitochondrial proteins of similar hydrophobicity and the practical impossibility to isolate each single isoform. Consequently, it is necessary to analyze them as components of a relatively complex mixture. Due to the experimental difficulties in their structural characterization, post-translational modifications (PTMs) of VDAC proteins represent a little explored field. Only in recent years, the increasing number of tools aimed at identifying and quantifying PTMs has allowed to increase our knowledge in this field and in the mechanisms that regulate functions and interactions of mitochondrial porins. In particular, the development of nano-reversed phase ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (nanoRP-UHPLC) and ultra-sensitive high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) methods has played a key role in this field. The findings obtained on VDAC PTMs using such methodologies, which permitted an in-depth characterization of these very hydrophobic trans-membrane pore proteins, are summarized in this review.

Abstract
Transglutaminases are a class of enzymes that catalyze the formation of a protein:protein cross-link between a lysine and a glutamine residue. These cross-links play important roles in diverse biological processes. Analysis of cross-linking sites in target proteins is required to elucidate their molecular action on target protein function and the molecular specificity of different transglutaminase isozymes. Mass-spectrometry using settings designed for linear peptide analysis and software designed for the analysis of disulfide bridges and chemical cross-links have previously been employed to identify transglutaminase cross-linking sites in proteins. As no control peptide with which to assess and improve the mass spectrometric analysis of TG cross-linked proteins was available, we developed a method for the enzymatic synthesis of a well-defined transglutaminase cross-linked peptide pair that mimics a predicted tryptic digestion product of collagen I. We then used this model peptide to determine optimal score thresholds for correct peptide identification from y- and b-ion series of fragments produced by collision-induced dissociation. We employed these settings in an analysis of fibrinogen cross-linked by the transglutaminase Factor XIIIa. This approach resulted in identification of a novel cross-linked peptide in the gamma subunit. We discuss the difference in behavior of ions derived from different cross-linked peptide sequences and the consequent demand for a more tailored mass spectrometry approach for cross-linked peptide identification compared to that routinely used for linear peptide analysis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Protein phosphorylation is a primary mechanism of signal transduction in cellular systems. Isobaric tagging can be used to investigate alterations in phosphorylation events in sample multiplexing experiments where quantification extends across all conditions. As such, innovations in tandem mass tag methods can facilitate the expansion of the depth and breadth of phosphoproteomic analyses. AREAS COVERED This review discusses the current state of tandem mass tag-centric phosphoproteomics and highlights advances in reagent chemistry, instrumentation, data acquisition, and data analysis. We stress that approaches for phosphoproteomic investigations require high-specificity enrichment, sensitive detection, and accurate phosphorylation site localization. EXPERT OPINION Tandem mass tag-centric phosphoproteomics will continue to be an important conduit for our understanding of signal transduction in living organisms. We anticipate that progress in phosphopeptide enrichment methodologies, enhancements in instrumentation and data acquisition technologies, and further refinements in analytical strategies will be key to the discovery of biologically relevant findings from phosphoproteomics studies.

Abstract
Protein glycosylation is one of the most common posttranslational modifications, and plays an essential role in a wide range of biological processes such as immune response, intercellular signaling, inflammation, host-pathogen interaction, and protein stability. Glycoproteomics is a proteomics subfield dedicated to identifying and characterizing the glycans and glycoproteins in a given cell or tissue. Aberrant glycosylation has been associated with various diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, viral infections, inflammation, immune deficiencies, congenital disorders, and cancers. However, glycoproteomic analysis remains challenging because of the low abundance, site-specific heterogeneity, and poor ionization efficiency of glycopeptides during LC-MS analyses. Therefore, the development of sensitive and accurate approaches to efficiently characterize protein glycosylation is crucial. Methods such as metabolic labeling, enrichment, and derivatization of glycopeptides, coupled with different mass spectrometry techniques and bioinformatics tools, have been developed to achieve sophisticated levels of quantitative and qualitative analyses of glycoproteins. This review attempts to update the recent developments in the field of glycoproteomics reported between 2017 and 2021.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has become a global disease encompassing a group of progressive disorders characterized by recurrent chronic inflammation of the gut with variable disease courses and complications. Despite recent advances in the knowledge of IBD pathophysiology, the elucidation of its etiopathology and progression is far from fully understood, requiring complex and multiple approaches. Therefore, limited clinical progress in diagnosis, assessment of disease activity, and optimal therapeutic regimens have been made over the past few decades. This review explores recent advances and challenges in tissue proteomics with an emphasis on biomarker discovery and better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying IBD pathogenesis. Future multi-omic studies are required for the comprehensive molecular characterization of disease biology in real time with a future impact on early detection, disease monitoring, and prediction of the clinical outcome.

Abstract
Eukaryotic protein phosphorylation modulates nearly every major biological process. Phosphorylation regulates protein activity, mediates cellular signal transduction, and manipulates cellular structure. Consequently, the dysregulation of kinase and phosphatase pathways has been linked to a multitude of diseases. Mass spectrometry-based proteomic techniques are increasingly used for the global interrogation of perturbations in phosphorylation-based cellular signaling. Strategies for studying phosphoproteomes require high-specificity enrichment, sensitive detection, and accurate localization of phosphorylation sites with advanced LC-MS/MS techniques and downstream informatics. Sample multiplexing with isobaric tags has also been integral to recent advancements in throughput and sensitivity for phosphoproteomic studies. Each of these facets of phosphoproteomics analysis present distinct challenges and thus opportunities for improvement and innovation. Here, we review current methodologies, explore persistent challenges, and discuss the outlook for isobaric tag-based quantitative phosphoproteomic analysis.

Abstract
In humans and other eukaryotes, histone post-translational modifications (hPTMs) play an essential role in the epigenetic control of gene expression. In trypanosomatid parasites, conversely, gene regulation occurs mainly at the post-transcriptional level. However, our group has recently shown that hPTMs are abundant and varied in Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas Disease, signaling for possible conserved epigenetic functions. Here, we applied an optimized mass spectrometry-based proteomic workflow to provide a high-confidence comprehensive map of hPTMs, distributed in all canonical, variant and linker histones of T. cruzi. Our work expands the number of known T. cruzi hPTMs by almost 2-fold, representing the largest dataset of hPTMs available to any trypanosomatid to date, and can be used as a basis for functional studies on the dynamic regulation of chromatin by epigenetic mechanisms and the selection of candidates for the development of epigenetic drugs against trypanosomatids.

Abstract
Mexico presents the highest richness of Opuntia Mill. species. These species are an important economic factor for the country, and source of nutrients, bioactive compounds, pigments, and nutraceuticals which can be of interest for the food and pharmaceutical industry. However, there are some wild Opuntia species in the Chihuahua desert, that have not been analyzed to establish their properties and potential use. The aim of study was to evaluate the sensory, physicochemical and protein profile in wild prickly pear fruits (O. macrocentra Engelm. (OM), O. phaeacantha Engelm. (OP), and O. engelmannii Salm-Dyck ex Engelmann. (OE)) from Samalayuca, Chihuahua and compare them with two commercial prickly pear fruits (O. ficus-indica (L.) Mill. (green-OFG, red-OFR). The sensory profile of wild species was characterized by highest color, odor, and sour taste compared to the commercial fruits. Pulp, peel, and seeds from wild prickly pear fruits showed lower pH, and higher titratable total acidity, total phenolic compounds, total flavonoids, antioxidant capacity, protein, lipids, ash, carbohydrates (only peel), and crude fiber content than commercial Opuntia species. Furthermore, O. engelmannii showed a tendency to present the highest betacyanins, betaxanthins, and betalains contents. A total of 181, 122, 113, 183 and 140 different proteins were identified in OM, OP, OE, OFG, OFR species, respectively. All species showed the highest enrichment in three main pathways such as amino acids biosynthesis, glycolysis (dark)/gluconeogenesis (light), and the citric acid cycle. The wild prickly pear fruits of this study showed important nutritional, protein, and antioxidant properties with biological interest, and can be a potential source of functional ingredients and nutraceuticals.

Abstract
Further improving the proteomic identification coverage and reliability is still challenging in the mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics. Herein, we combine VAILase and trypsin digestion with 193-nm ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) and higher-energy collision dissociation (HCD) to improve the performance of bottom-up proteomics. As VAILase exhibits high complementarity to trypsin, the proteome sequence coverage is improved obviously whether with HCD or 193-nm UVPD. The high diversity of fragment ion types produced by UVPD contributes to the improvements of identification reliability for both trypsin- and VAILase-digested peptides with an average XCorr score improvement of 10%.

Abstract
Anastrepha ludens is a key pest of mangoes and citrus from Texas to Costa Rica but the mechanisms of odorant perception in this species are poorly understood. Detection of volatiles in insects occurs mainly in the antenna, where molecules penetrate sensillum pores and link to soluble proteins in the hemolymph until reaching specific odor receptors that trigger signal transduction and lead to behavioral responses. Scrutinizing the molecular foundation of odorant perception in A. ludens is necessary to improve biorational management strategies against this pest. After exposing adults of three maturity stages to a proteinaceous attractant, we studied antennal morphology and comparative proteomic profiles using nano-LC-MS/MS with tandem mass tags combined with synchronous precursor selection (SPS)-MS3. Antennas from newly emerged flies exhibited dense agglomerations of olfactory sensory neurons. We discovered 4618 unique proteins in the antennas of A. ludens and identified some associated with odor signaling, including odorant-binding and calcium signaling related proteins, the odorant receptor co-receptor (Orco), and putative odorant-degrading enzymes. Antennas of sexually immature flies exhibited the most upregulation of odor perception proteins compared to mature flies exposed to the attractant. This is the first report where critical molecular players are linked to the odor perception mechanism of A. ludens.

Abstract
Despite the clear association between myocardial injury, heart failure and depressed myocardial energetics, little is known about upstream signals responsible for remodeling myocardial metabolism after pathological stress. Here, we report increased mitochondrial calmodulin kinase II (CaMKII) activation and left ventricular dilation in mice one week after myocardial infarction (MI) surgery. By contrast, mice with genetic mitochondrial CaMKII inhibition are protected from left ventricular dilation and dysfunction after MI. Mice with myocardial and mitochondrial CaMKII overexpression (mtCaMKII) have severe dilated cardiomyopathy and decreased ATP that causes elevated cytoplasmic resting (diastolic) Ca2+ concentration and reduced mechanical performance. We map a metabolic pathway that rescues disease phenotypes in mtCaMKII mice, providing insights into physiological and pathological metabolic consequences of CaMKII signaling in mitochondria. Our findings suggest myocardial dilation, a disease phenotype lacking specific therapies, can be prevented by targeted replacement of mitochondrial creatine kinase or mitochondrial-targeted CaMKII inhibition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Saliva contains a very complex mixture of proteins for defense against microbiological pathogens and for oral food perception. Howler monkeys are Neotropical primates that can consume a mostly leaf diet. They are well known to thrive in highly disturbed habitats where they may cope with a diversity of dietary challenges and infection risks. We aimed to describe the salivary proteome of howlers to contribute to better understanding of their physiology. METHODS We analyzed the salivary proteins of wild black howler monkeys (Alouatta pigra), by SDS-PAGE-1-D and Nano LC-MS/MS and categorized them by their function involved in host defense and oral food perception. RESULTS Our proteomic analysis identified 156 proteins in howler saliva including a number of host defense peptides that are the first line of defense in mammals, such as defensin, cathelicidin, dermcidin, and lactotransferrin, and proteins with anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-viral capacity, such as IgA, IgG, IgM, BPI, salivary heat shock 70 kDa protein, beta-2-microbulin, and protein S-100. We also identified key proteins necessary for taste perception, including salivary carbonic anhydrase VI, cystatin D, IgA, and fatty acid-binding protein. Proteins to detect astringent foods were identifying, including four members of cystatins (A, B, C and D), lactoperoxidase, and histidine-rich proteins. No chitinase and amylase were identified as would be expected because howlers do not eat insects and little starch. These findings provide basic information to future studies in oral biology, ingestive physiology, and physiological ecology of mammals and non-human primates.

[PMID: 32480079 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2020.103846] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2019] [Revised: 05/20/2020] [Accepted: 05/24/2020] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
Chemical cross-linking is a powerful strategy for elucidating the structures of protein or protein complexes. The distance constraints obtained from cross-linked peptides represent the three-dimensional structures of the protein complexes. Unfortunately, structural analysis using cross-linking approach demands a significant amount of data to elucidate protein structures. This requires the development of several cleavable cross-linkers with different range of spacer chains. An Electron Transfer Dissociation (ETD) tandem mass spectrometry cleavable bond hydrazone was reported. Its fragmentation with conjugated peptides showed promise for the development of a new ETD cleavable cross-linker. However, no cross-linker was developed utilizing this ETD cleavable bond. For the first time, we attempted to develop an ETD cleavable cross-linker utilizing a hydrazone bond. We overcome the pitfall for the synthesis of this cross-linker and an easy synthesis scheme is reported. In this report, we evaluated the performance of this cross-linker called Hydrazone Incorporated ETD cleavable cross-linker (HI-ETD-XL) in model peptides and proteins. The characteristic fragmentation behavior of HI-ETD-XL during electron transfer dissociation and subsequent sequence identification of the peptide fragment ions by tandem mass spectrometry allowed the identification of cross-linked peptides unambiguously. We believe the availability of this ETD cleavable cross-linker will advance structural proteomics research significantly. SIGNIFICANCE: Many cellular processes rely on the structural dynamics of protein complexes. The detailed knowledge of the structure and dynamics of protein complexes is crucial for understanding their biological functions and regulations. However, most of the structure of these multiprotein entities remain uncharacterized and sometimes is very challenging to reveal with biophysical techniques alone. Chemical cross-linking combined with mass spectrometry (MS) has proven to be a dependable strategy in structural proteomics field. However, data complexity and false identifications are significant hindrances for unambiguous identification of cross-linked peptides. Confident identifications demand structural studies with cross-linkers with different properties and variable spacer chain lengths. This new ETD cleavable cross-linking workflow will provide additional confidence to overcome these drawbacks and allow us to pinpoint cross-linked peptides confidently.

Abstract
Human coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) is a key co-factor in the clotting cascade, the deficiency of which leads to Hemophilia A. Human plasma-derived (pdFVIII) and recombinant FVIII (rFVIII) had been used as effective products to prevent and treat bleeding episodes. Both FVIII products share identical amino acid sequences and appear to be equivalent as of clinical efficiency. However, systemic reviews found an increased risk of neutralizing antibody (or inhibitor) development with recombinant products. FVIII is a highly glycosylated protein, and its glycosylation pattern is specific to host cells and environments. The roles of glycosylation in immune responses toward pdFVIII and rFVIII are yet to be defined. Herein, we systemically profiled N- and O-glycomes of pdFVIII and rFVIII using a mass spectrometry-based glycoproteomic strategy. A total of 110 site-specific N-glycopeptides consisting of 61 N-glycoforms were identified quantitatively from rFVIII and pdFVIII. Additionally, 31 O-glycoforms were identified on 23 peptides from rFVIII and pdFVIII. A comprehensive comparison of their site-specific glycan profiles revealed distinct differences between the glycosylation of pdFVIII and rFVIII.

Abstract
Modern omics technologies allow us to obtain global information on different types of biological networks. However, integrating these different types of analyses into a coherent framework for a comprehensive biological interpretation remains challenging. Here, we present a conceptual framework that integrates protein interaction, phosphoproteomics, and transcriptomics data. Applying this method to analyze HRAS signaling from different subcellular compartments shows that spatially defined networks contribute specific functions to HRAS signaling. Changes in HRAS protein interactions at different sites lead to different kinase activation patterns that differentially regulate gene transcription. HRAS-mediated signaling is the strongest from the cell membrane, but it regulates the largest number of genes from the endoplasmic reticulum. The integrated networks provide a topologically and functionally resolved view of HRAS signaling. They reveal distinct HRAS functions including the control of cell migration from the endoplasmic reticulum and TP53-dependent cell survival when signaling from the Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
Statistically, accurate protein identification is a fundamental cornerstone of proteomics and underpins the understanding and application of this technology across all elements of medicine and biology. Proteomics, as a branch of biochemistry, has in recent years played a pivotal role in extending and developing the science of accurately identifying the biology and interactions of groups of proteins or proteomes. Proteomics has primarily used mass spectrometry (MS)-based techniques for identifying proteins, although other techniques including affinity-based identifications still play significant roles. Here, we outline the basics of MS to understand how data are generated and parameters used to inform computational tools used in protein identification. We then outline a comprehensive analysis of the bioinformatics and computational methodologies used in protein identification in proteomics including discussing the most current communally acceptable metrics to validate any identification.

Abstract
There is an exponential increase in biological complexity as initial gene transcripts are spliced, translated into amino acid sequence, and post-translationally modified. Each protein can exist as multiple chemical or sequence-specific proteoforms, and each has the potential to be a critical mediator of a physiological or pathophysiological signaling cascade. Here, we provide an overview of how different proteoforms come about in biological systems and how they are most commonly measured using mass spectrometry-based proteomics and bioinformatics. Our goal is to present this information at a level accessible to every scientist interested in mass spectrometry and its application to proteome profiling. We will specifically discuss recent data linking various protein post-translational modifications to cardiovascular disease and conclude with a discussion for enablement and democratization of proteomics across the cardiovascular and scientific community. The aim is to inform and inspire the readership to explore a larger breadth of proteoform, particularity post-translational modifications, related to their particular areas of expertise in cardiovascular physiology.

Abstract
Peptide cross-links formed using the homobifunctional-linker diethyl suberthioimidate (DEST) are shown to be ETD-cleavable. DEST has a spacer arm consisting of a 6-carbon alkyl chain and it cleaves at the amidino groups created upon reaction with primary amines. In ETD MS2 spectra, DEST cross-links can be recognized based on mass pairs consisting of peptide-NH2• and peptide+linker+NH3 ions, and backbone cleavages are more equally distributed over the two constituent peptides compared with collisional activation. Dead ends that are often challenging to distinguish from cross-links are diagnosed by intense reporter ions. ETD mass pairs can be used in MS3 experiments to confirm cross-link identifications. These features provide a simple but reliable approach to identify cross-links that should facilitate studies of protein complexes.

Abstract
Leishmaniases are diseases caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Leishmania. They are endemic in 98 countries, affect around 12 million people worldwide and may present several distinct clinical forms. Unfortunately, there are only a few drugs available for treatment of leishmaniasis, which are toxic and not always effective. Different parasite species and different clinical forms require optimization of the treatment or more specific therapies, which are not available. The emergence of resistance is also a matter of concern. Besides, diagnosis can sometimes be complicated due to atypical manifestations and associations with other pathologies. In this review, proteomic data are presented and discussed in terms of their application in important issues in leishmaniasis such as parasite resistance to chemotherapy, diagnosis of active disease in patients and dogs, markers for different clinical forms, identification of virulence factors, and their potential use in vaccination. It is shown that proteomics has contributed to the discovery of potential biomarkers for prognosis, diagnosis, therapeutics, monitoring of disease progression, treatment follow-up and identification of vaccine candidates for specific diseases. However, the authors believe its capabilities have not yet been fully explored for routine clinical analysis for several reasons, which will be presented in this review.

Abstract
Fetuin, also known as α-2-HS-glycoprotein (gene name: AHSG), is one of the more abundant glycoproteins secreted into the bloodstream. There are two frequently occurring alleles of human AHSG, resulting in three genotypes (AHSG*1, AHSG*2, and heterozygous AHSG1/2). The backbone amino acid sequences of fetuin coded by the AHSG*1 and AHSG*2 genes differ in two amino acids including one known O-glycosylation site (aa position 256). Although fetuin levels have been extensively studied, the originating genotype is often ignored in such analysis. As fetuin has been suggested repeatedly as a potential biomarker for several disorders, the question whether the gene polymorphism affects the fetuin profile is of great interest. In this work, we describe detailed proteoform profiles of fetuin, isolated from serum of 10 healthy and 10 septic patient individuals and investigate potential glycoproteogenomics correlations, e.g. how gene polymorphisms affect glycosylation. We established an efficient method for fetuin purification from individuals' serum using ion-exchange chromatography. Subsequently, we performed hybrid mass spectrometric approaches integrating data from native mass spectra and peptide-centric MS analysis. Our data reveal a crucial effect of the gene polymorphism on the glycosylation pattern of fetuin. Moreover, we clearly observed increased fucosylation in the samples derived from the septic patients. Our serum proteoform analysis, targeted at one protein obtained from 20 individuals, exposes the wide variability in proteoform profiles, which should be taken into consideration when using fetuin as biomarker. Importantly, focusing on a single or few proteins, the quantitative proteoform profiles can provide, as shown here, already ample data to classify individuals by genotype and disease state.

Characterization of intact glycopeptides reveals the impact of culture media on site-specific glycosylation of EPO-Fc fusion protein generated by CHO-GS cells. Biotechnol Bioeng 2019; 116:2303-2315. [PMID: 31062865 DOI: 10.1002/bit.27009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2019] [Revised: 04/15/2019] [Accepted: 05/02/2019] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
With the increasing demand to provide more detailed quality attributes, more sophisticated glycan analysis tools are highly desirable for biopharmaceutical manufacturing. Here, we performed an intact glycopeptide analysis method to simultaneously analyze the site-specific N- and O-glycan profiles of the recombinant erythropoietin Fc (EPO-Fc) protein secreted from a Chinese hamster ovary glutamine synthetase stable cell line and compared the effects of two commercial culture media, EX-CELL (EX) and immediate advantage (IA) media, on the glycosylation profile of the target protein. EPO-Fc, containing the Fc region of immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) fused to EPO, was harvested at Day 5 and 8 of a batch cell culture process followed by purification and N- and O-glycopeptide profiling. A mixed anion exchange chromatographic column was implemented to capture and enrich N-linked glycopeptides. Using intact glycopeptide characterization, the EPO-Fc was observed to maintain their individual EPO and Fc N-glycan characteristics in which the EPO region presented bi-, tri-, and tetra-branched N-glycan structures, while the Fc N-glycan displayed mostly biantennary glycans. EPO-Fc protein generated in EX medium produced more complex tetra-antennary N-glycans at each of the three EPO N-sites while IA medium resulted in a greater fraction of bi- and tri-antennary N-glycans at these same sites. Interestingly, the sialylation content decreased from sites 1-4 in both media while the fucosylation progressively increased with a maximum at the final IgG Fc site. Moreover, we observed that low amounts of Neu5Gc were detected and the content increased at the later sampling time in both EX and IA media. For O-glycopeptides, both media produced predominantly three structures, N1F1F0SOG0, N1H1F0S1G0, and N1H1F0S2G0, with lesser amounts of other structures. This intact glycopeptide method can decipher site-specific glycosylation profile and provide a more detailed characterization of N- and O-glycans present for enhanced understanding of the key product quality attributes such as media on recombinant proteins of biotechnology interest.

Int Immunopharmacol 2019; 71:382-391.

Abstract
Previous investigation showed that intravenous injection of ginsenoside Rg1 had a therapeutic effect on Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide-induced mastitis in lactating goats and it protected animals from lipopolysaccharide challenge via toll-like receptor 4 signaling pathway. The present study was to use proteomic approach to explore the anti-inflammatory mechanisms of Rg1. Nine dairy goats were randomly divided into three groups with 3 animals in each: groups 1 and 2 received intra-mammary infusion of lipopolysaccharide and then intravenously injected with saline or Rg1 solution; animals in group 3 were first intramammarily and then intravenously administered saline solution, and served as a control group. Milk whey at 6 h post lipopolysaccharide challenge was prepared for tandem mass tags based quantitative proteomic analysis. The results showed that 791 proteins were totally identified from the whey. Of them, 98 proteins between groups 1 (lipopolysaccharide + Saline) and 3 (Saline + Saline), and 34 proteins between groups 2 (lipopolysaccharide + Rg1) and 1 were significantly different. Group 1 than group 3 had significantly more inflammatory factors such as interleukin 6, acute phase proteins, blood coagulation factors, complement proteins, and oxidative stress markers while these factors were reduced in group 2 treated with Rg1. In addition, proteins in group 2 associated with peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor γ activation and recovery of milk fat and production were upregulated compared to group 1. Therefore, Rg1 may exert its anti-inflammatory effect on lipopolysaccharide-induced mastitis in goats via modulating expression of proteins relating to peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor γ and toll-like receptor 4 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Sample preparation for mass-spectrometry-based proteomic analyses usually requires intricate, multistep workflows that are often limited in capacity or suffer from sample loss. Here, we introduce a lean adsorption-based protocol (ABP) for the extraction of proteins from fresh cell lysates that enables us to modify and tag protein samples under harsh conditions, such as organic solvents, high salt concentrations, or low pH values. This offers high versatility while also reducing the required steps in the preparation process significantly. Protein identifications are slightly increased compared to traditional acetone precipitation followed by an in-solution digestion (AP/IS) or filter aided sample preparation (FASP) and proved complementary to both methods regarding proteome coverage. When combined with ArgC-like digestion, this approach delivered 5386 uniquely identified proteins, a substantial increase of 18.27% over tryptic digestion (4554), while decreasing spectra complexity due to a lower number of peptide to spectra matches per protein and the number of missed cleaved peptides. In addition, an increased number of identified membrane proteins and histones as well as improved fragmentation and intensity coverage were observed through comprehensive data analysis.

Abstract
Glycosylation is a frequently observed post-translational modification on proteins. Currently, tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) serves as an efficient analytical technique for characterizing structures of oligosaccharides. However, developing effective computational approaches for identifying glycan structures from mass spectra is still a great challenge in glycoproteomics research. In this study, we proposed an approach for matching the input spectra with glycan structures acquired from a glycan structure database by incorporating a de novo sequencing assisted ranking scheme. The proposed approach is implemented as a software tool, GlycoNovoDB, for automated glycan structure identification from HCD MS/MS of glycopeptides. Experimental results showed that GlycoNovoDB can identify glycans effectively and has better performance than our previously proposed de novo sequencing algorithm as well as another software GlycoMaster DB.
