Abstract
![]()
Identifying
and characterizing the enzymes responsible for an observed
activity within a complex eukaryotic catabolic system remains one
of the most significant challenges in the study of biomass-degrading
systems. The debranching of both complex hemicellulosic and pectinaceous
polysaccharides requires the production of α-l-arabinofuranosidases
among a wide variety of coexpressed carbohydrate-active enzymes. To
selectively detect and identify α-l-arabinofuranosidases
produced by fungi grown on complex biomass, potential covalent inhibitors
and probes which mimic α-l-arabinofuranosides were
sought. The conformational free energy landscapes of free α-l-arabinofuranose and several rationally designed covalent α-l-arabinofuranosidase inhibitors were analyzed. A synthetic
route to these inhibitors was subsequently developed based on a key
Wittig–Still rearrangement. Through a combination of kinetic
measurements, intact mass spectrometry, and structural experiments,
the designed inhibitors were shown to efficiently label the catalytic
nucleophiles of retaining GH51 and GH54 α-l-arabinofuranosidases.
Activity-based probes elaborated from an inhibitor with an aziridine
warhead were applied to the identification and characterization of
α-l-arabinofuranosidases within the secretome of A. niger grown on arabinan. This method was extended to
the detection and identification of α-l-arabinofuranosidases
produced by eight biomass-degrading basidiomycete fungi grown on complex
biomass. The broad applicability of the cyclophellitol-derived activity-based
probes and inhibitors presented here make them a valuable new tool
in the characterization of complex eukaryotic carbohydrate-degrading
systems and in the high-throughput discovery of α-l-arabinofuranosidases.

Abstract
The development of renewable biofuels is a global priority, but success will require novel technologies that greatly improve our understanding of microbial systems biology. An approach with great promise in enabling functional characterization of microbes is activity-based protein profiling (ABPP), which employs chemical probes to directly measure enzyme function in discrete enzyme classes in vivo and/or in vitro, thereby facilitating the rapid discovery of new biocatalysts and enabling much improved biofuel production platforms. We review general design strategies in ABPP, and highlight recent advances that are or could be pivotal to biofuels processes including applications of ABPP to cellulosic bioethanol, biodiesel, and phototrophic production of hydrocarbons. We also examine the key challenges and opportunities of ABPP in renewable biofuels research. The integration of ABPP with molecular and systems biology approaches will shed new insight on the catalytic and regulatory mechanisms of functional enzymes and their synergistic effects in the field of biofuels production.

Abstract
Carbohydrate antigens are the most frequently and traditionally used biomarkers for cancer, such as CA19-9, CA125, DUPAN-II, AFP-L3, and many others. The diagnostic potential of them was simply based on the cancer-specific alterations of glycan structures on particular glycoproteins in serum/plasma. In spite of the facts that glycosylation disorders are feasible for cancer biomarkers and glycomic analysis technologies to explore them have been rapidly developed, it remains difficult to sensitively screen glycan structure changes on cancer-associated glycoproteins from clinical specimens. Moreover, a lot of additional issues should be appropriately addressed for the clinical application of newly identified glycosylation biomarkers, including analytical throughput, quantitative confirmation of structural changes, and biological explanation for the alterations. In the last decade, significant improvement of mass spectrometric techniques is being made in the aspects of both hardware spec and preanalytical purification procedures for glycoprotein analysis. Here we review potential approaches to perform comprehensive analysis of glycoproteomic biomarker screening from serum/plasma and to realize high-throughput validation of site-specific oligosaccharide variations. The power and problems of mass spectrometric applications on the clinical use of carbohydrate biomarkers are also discussed in this review.

Abstract
RATIONALE The nanostructure-initiator mass spectrometry based enzyme assay (Nimzyme) provides a rapid method for screening glycan modifying reactions. However, this approach cannot resolve stereospecific reactions which are common in glycobiology and are typically assayed using lower-throughput methods (gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) or liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) analysis) often in conjunction with stable isotopically labeled reactants. However, in many applications, library size necessitates the development of higher-throughput screening approaches of stereospecific reactions from crude sample preparations. Therefore, here we test the approach of utilizing Nimzyme linkers with unique masses to encode substrate identity such that this assay can resolve stereospecific reactions. METHODS We utilize the nanostructure-initiator mass spectrometry (NIMS) enzyme assay in conjuction with an accurate mass tagging approach where each reactant is tagged with a unique perfluoronated tail. Mass spectrometric analysis was conducted using conventional MALDI-TOF instrumentation. RESULTS Stereospecific reaction pathways of three stereoisomers (maltose, lactose and cellobiose) to afford the same product glucose were resolved simutaneously due to the presence of unique fluorous tags on both reactants and products. Not only purified enzymes, but also crude cell lysates can be used in this assay. CONCLUSIONS The Nimzyme assay with accurate mass tagging provides a rapid method for screening for targeted stereospecific reactions using mass spectrometry and may be useful for high-throughput screening and functional annotation of a wide range of glycan-modifying enzymes.

Abstract
Amino acid-tagging strategies are widespread in proteomics. Because of the central role of mass spectrometry (MS) as a detection technique in protein sciences, the term "mass tagging" was coined to describe the attachment of a label, which serves MS analysis and/or adds analytical value to the measurements. These so-called mass tags can be used for separation, enrichment, detection, and quantitation of peptides and proteins. In this context, cysteine is a frequent target for modifications because the thiol function can react specifically by nucleophilic substitution or addition. Furthermore, cysteines present natural modifications of biological importance and a low occurrence in the proteome that justify the development of strategies to specifically target them in peptides or proteins. In the present review, the mass-tagging methods directed to cysteine residues are comprehensively discussed, and the advantages and drawbacks of these strategies are addressed. Some concrete applications are given to underline the relevance of cysteine-tagging techniques for MS-based proteomics.

Abstract
Recent developments in bioanalytical instrumentation, MS detection, and computational data analysis approaches have provided researchers with capabilities for interrogating the complex cellular glycoproteome, to help gain a better insight into the cellular and physiological processes that are associated with a disease and to facilitate the efforts centered on identifying disease-specific biomarkers. This review describes the progress achieved in the characterization of protein glycosylation by using advanced capillary and microfluidic MS technologies. The major steps involved in large-scale glycoproteomic analysis approaches are discussed, with special emphasis given to workflows that have evolved around complex MS detection functions. In addition, quantitative analysis strategies are assessed, and the bioinformatics aspects of glycoproteomic data processing are summarized. The developments in commercial and custom fabricated microfluidic front-end platforms to ESI- and MALDI-MS instrumentation, for addressing major challenges in carbohydrate analysis such as sensitivity, throughput, and ability to perform structural characterization, are further evaluated and illustrated with relevant examples.

Abstract
Genetic, chemical, and environmental perturbations can all induce large changes in cellular proteomes, and research aimed at quantifying these changes are an important part of modern biology. Although improvements in the hardware and software of mass spectrometers have produced increased throughput and accuracy of such measurements, new uses of heavy isotope internal standards that assist in this process have emerged. Surprisingly, even complex life forms such as mammals can be grown to near-complete replacement with heavy isotopes of common biological elements such as (15)N, and these isotopically labeled organisms provide excellent controls for isolating and identifying experimental variables such as extraction or fractionation efficiencies. We discuss here the theory and practice of these technologies, as well as provide a review of significant recent biological applications.
