Abstract
As one of the most common post-translational modification of proteins, protein phosphorylation plays a vital role in many physiological processes. The enrichment of phosphopeptides is highly important before the mass spectrometry detection since phosphopeptides are susceptible to interferences from high-abundance non-phosphopeptides. In this study, we designed a novel magnetic composite (Fe3O4@PDA-PEI-Fe3+) for phosphopeptide enrichment with a facile protocol. The developed Fe3O4@PDA-PEI-Fe3+ is a marvelous material with multiple functional groups, and can effectively enrich phosphopeptides through the synergistic effect of three mechanisms, i.e., immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography raised form Fe3+, electrostatic interaction between amine and phosphate groups, and hydrogen bond between the hydrogen atoms of amine groups and oxygen atoms of phosphate groups. Combined with mass spectrometry, the material shows excellent enrichment performance, high sensitivity (0.4 fmol), good selectivity (β-casein:BSA= 1:500, w:w), and stable reusability (at least 5 cycles). In addition, the material was successfully applied to enrich phosphopeptides from skim milk and human saliva samples, implying that it is an ideal adsorbent for the phosphopeptide enrichment in complex biological samples and provides valuable insights into the field of phosphopeptide analysis.

Abstract
Protein glycosylation and phosphorylation are two of the most common post-translational modifications (PTMs), which play an important role in many biological processes. However, low abundance and poor ionization efficiency of phosphopeptides and glycopeptides make direct MS analysis challenging. In this study, we developed a hydrophilicity-enhanced bifunctional Ti-IMAC (IMAC: immobilized metal affinity chromatography) material with grafted adenosine triphosphate (denoted as epoxy-ATP-Ti4+) to enable simultaneous enrichment and separation of common N-glycopeptides, phosphopeptides, and M6P glycopeptides from tissue/cells. The enrichment was achieved through a dual-mode mechanism based on the electrostatic and hydrophilic properties of the material. The epoxy-ATP-Ti4+ IMAC material was prepared from epoxy-functionalized silica particles via a convenient two-step process. The ATP molecule provided strong and active phosphate sites for binding phosphopeptides in the conventional IMAC mode and also contributed significantly to the hydrophilicity, which permitted the enrichment of glycopeptides via hydrophilic interaction chromatography. The two modes could be implemented simultaneously, allowing glycopeptides and phosphopeptides to be collected sequentially in a single experiment from the same sample. In addition to standard protein samples, the material was further applied to glycopeptide and phosphopeptide enrichment and characterization from HeLa cell digests and mouse lung tissue samples. In total, 2928 glycopeptides and 3051 phosphopeptides were identified from the mouse lung tissue sample, supporting the utility of this material for large-scale PTM analysis of complex biological samples. Overall, the newly developed epoxy-ATP-Ti4+ IMAC material and associated fractionation method enable simple and effective enrichment and separation of glycopeptides and phosphopeptides, offering a useful tool to study potential crosstalk between these two important PTMs in biological systems. The MS data have been deposited to the ProteomeXchange Consortium via the PRIDE partner repository with the data set identifier PXD029775.

Abstract
Herein, a hydrophilic graphene composite functionalized with glutathione (GSH) and L(+)-Cysteine (Cys) was prepared via a simple and fast synthesis route, which was named G@S@Au@GC. The combination attack with two different zwitterionic polymers resulted in enhanced adsorption sites for glycopeptides. The obtained G@S@Au@GC exhibited excellent performance on a low limit of detection (0.2 fmol), a high selectivity (HRP: bovine serum albumin = 1:1500), a good load capacity (250 μg•mg-1) and recovery rate (93%), which was also evaluated with IgG. Subsequently, 60 glycopeptides from complex biological sample (human saliva) were identified by Nano-LC-MS/MS. The advantages of combination attack, low-cost, simple and fast synthesis, and superior enrichment performance make G@S@Au@GC composite a bright future on glycoproteomics analysis and related diseases.

Abstract
Protein glycosylation analysis is challenging due to the structural variety of complex conjugates. However, chromatographically separating glycans attached to tryptic peptides enables their site-specific characterization. For this purpose, we have shown the importance of selecting a suitable hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) stationary phase in the separation of glycopeptides and their isomers. Three different HILIC stationary phases, i.e., HALO® penta-HILIC, Glycan ethylene bridged hybrid (BEH) Amide, and ZIC-HILIC, were compared in the separation of complex N-glycopeptides of hemopexin and Immunoglobulin G glycoproteins. The retention time increased with the polarity of the glycans attached to the same peptide backbone in all HILIC columns tested in this study, except for the ZIC-HILIC column when adding sialic acid to the glycan moiety, which caused electrostatic repulsion with the negatively charged sulfobetaine functional group, thereby decreasing retention. The HALO® penta-HILIC column provided the best separation results, and the ZIC-HILIC column the worst. Moreover, we showed the potential of these HILIC columns for the isomeric separation of fucosylated and sialylated glycoforms. Therefore, HILIC is a useful tool for the comprehensive characterization of glycoproteins and their isomers.
