Abstract
This research aimed to investigate the characteristics of casein phosphopeptides in Chinese human milk, and their potential relationship to infant growth. Using the liquid chromatography-Orbitrap-mass spectrometry technique, a total of 15 casein phosphopeptides were identified from 200 human milk samples. Also, our results indicate that casein phosphopeptides were phosphorylated with only one phosphate. The relative concentrations of casein phosphopeptides at 6 months postpartum were increased compared with milk at 2 months (FDR < 0.05). Significantly positive correlations were observed between casein phosphopeptides and infant growth, as shown by four casein phosphopeptides were positively correlated with the infants' weight-for-age Z-scores (rs range from 0.20 to 0.29), and three casein phosphopeptides were positively correlated with the infants' length-for-age Z-scores (rs range from 0.19 to 0.27). This study is the first to reveal the phosphorylated level and composition of casein phosphopeptides in Chinese human milk, and their potential relationship with infant growth.

Abstract
Mass-spectrometry-based methods have made significant progress in the characterization of post-translational modifications (PTMs) in peptides and proteins; however, room remains to improve fragmentation methods. Ideal MS/MS methods are expected to simultaneously provide extensive sequence information and localization of PTM sites and retain labile PTM groups. This collection of criteria is difficult to meet, and the various activation methods available today offer different capabilities. In order to examine the specific case of phosphorylation on peptides, we investigate electron transfer dissociation (ETD), electron-activated dissociation (EAD), and 193 nm ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) and compare all three methods with classical collision-induced dissociation (CID). EAD and UVPD show extensive backbone fragmentation, comparable in scope to that of CID. These methods provide diverse backbone fragmentation, producing a/x, b/y, and c/z ions with substantial sequence coverages. EAD displays a high retention efficiency of the phosphate modification, attributed to its electron-mediated fragmentation mechanisms, as observed in ETD. UVPD offers reasonable retention efficiency, also allowing localization of the PTM site. EAD experiments were also performed in an LC-MS/MS workflow by analyzing phosphopeptides spiked in human plasma, and spectra allow accurate identification of the modified sites and discrimination of isomers. Based on the overall performance, EAD and 193 nm UVPD offer alternative options to CID and ETD for phosphoproteomics.

Abstract
The specific enrichment of multi-phosphopeptides in the presence of non-phosphopeptides and mono-phosphopeptides was still a challenge for phosphoproteomics research. Most of these enrichment materials relied on Zn, Ti, Sn, and other rare precious metals as the bonding center to enrich multi-phosphopeptides while ignoring the use of common metal elements. The addition of rare metals increased the cost of the experiment, which was not conducive to their large-scale application in biomedical proteomics laboratories. In addition, multiple high-speed centrifugation steps also resulted in the loss of low-abundance multi-phosphopeptides in the treatment procedure of biological samples. This study proposed the use of calcium, a common element, as the central bonding agent for synthesizing magnetic calcium phosphate materials (designated as CaP-Fe3O4). These materials aim to capture multi-phosphopeptides and identifying phosphorylation sites. The current results demonstrate that CaP-Fe3O4 exhibited excellent selection specificity, high sensitivity, and stability in the enrichment of multi-phosphopeptides and the identification of phosphorylation sites. Additionally, the introduction of magnetic separation not only reduced the time required for multi-phosphopeptides enrichment but also prevented the loss of these peptides during high-speed centrifugation. These findings contribute to the widespread application and advancement of phosphoproteomics research.

Abstract
Highly selective extraction of phosphopeptides is necessary before mass spectrometry (MS) analysis. Herein, zirconium phthalocyanine-modified magnetic nanoparticles were prepared through a simple method. The Fe-O groups on Fe3O4 and the zirconium ions on phthalocyanine had a strong affinity for phosphopeptides based on immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC). The enrichment platform exhibited low detection limit (0.01 fmol), high selectivity (α-/β-casein/bovine serum albumin, 1/1/5000), good reusability (10 circles), and recovery (91.1 ± 1.1%) toward phosphopeptides. Nonfat milk, human serum, saliva, and A549 cell lysate were employed as actual samples to assess the applicability of the enrichment protocol. Metallo-phthalocyanine will be a competitive compound for designing highly efficient adsorbents and offers a new approach to phosphopeptide analysis.

Abstract
One of the most crucial and prevalent post-translational modifications is the phosphorylation of proteins. The study and examination of protein phosphorylation hold immense importance in comprehending disease mechanisms and discovering novel biomarkers. However, the inherent low abundance, low ionization efficiency, and coexistence with non phosphopeptides seriously affect the direct analysis of phosphopeptides by mass spectrometry. In order to tackle these problems, it is necessary to carry out selective enrichment of phosphopeptides prior to conducting mass spectrometry analysis. Herein, magnetic chitosan nanoparticles were developed by incorporating arginine, and were then utilized for phosphopeptide enrichment. A tryptic digest of β-casein was chosen as the standard substance. After enrichment, combined with matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS), the detection limit of the method was 0.4 fmol. The synthesized magnetic material demonstrated great potential in the detection of phosphopeptides in complex samples, as proven by its successful application in detecting phosphopeptides in skim milk and human saliva samples.

Abstract
A facile and mild method based on self-assembled lysozyme (LYZ) to fabricate bifunctional MNPs@UIO-66-Arg core-shell-satellite nanocomposites (CSSNCs) is reported for the high-efficiency enrichment of phosphopeptides. Under physiological conditions, LYZ rapidly self-assembled into a robust coating on Fe3O4@SiO2 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with abundant surface functional groups, which effectively mediate heterogeneous nucleation and growth of UIO-66 nanocrystals. Well-defined MNPs@UIO-66 CSSNCs with stacked pores, showing high specific surface area (333.65 m2 g- 1) and low mass transfer resistance, were successfully fabricated by fine-tuning of the reaction conditions including reaction time and acetic acid content. Furthermore, the UIO-66 shells were further modified with arginine to obtain bifunctional MNPs@UIO-66-Arg CSSNCs. Thanks to the unique morphology and synergistic effect of Zr-O clusters and guanidine groups, the bifunctional MNPs@UIO-66-Arg CSSNCs exhibited outstanding enrichment performance for phosphopeptides, delivering a low limit of detection (0.1 fmol), high selectivity (β-casein/BSA, mass ratio 1:2000), and good capture capacity (120 mg g- 1). The mechanism for phosphopeptides capture may attribute to the hydrogen bonds, electrostatic interactions, and Zr-O-P bonds between phosphate groups in peptides and guanidyl/Zr-O clusters on bifunctional MNPs@UIO-66-Arg CSSNCs. In addition, the small stacking pores on the core-shell-satellite architecture may selectively capture phosphopeptides with low molecular weight, eliminating interference of other large molecular proteins in complex biological samples.

Abstract
Reasonable design and construction of functionalized materials are of great importance for the enrichment of global phosphopeptides. In this work, Ti4+ functionalized hydrophilic covalent organic frameworks by introducing glutathione (GSH) and 2,3,4-trihydroxy benzaldehyde (THBA) via click chemistry and Schiff base reaction (COF-V@GSH-THBA-Ti4+ ) was constructed and applied for selective enrichment of phosphopeptides in serum. Benefit from the high surface area, excellent hydrophilicity as well as regular mesoporous structure, COF-V@GSH-THBA-Ti4+ displayed high selectivity (molar ratio of 2000:1), low limit of detection (0.5 fmol), high load capacity (100.0 mg/g) and excellent size-exclusion effect (1:10000) for enrichment of phosphopeptides. For actual bio-sample analysis, 15 phosphopeptides assigned to 10 phosphoproteins with 16 phosphorylated sites and 33 phosphopeptides assigned to 25 phosphoproteins with 34 phosphorylated sites were detected from the serum of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and normal controls. Biological processes and molecular functions analysis further disclosed the difference of serums with phosphoproteomics between COPD and normal controls.

Abstract
The comprehensive investigation of protein phosphorylation and glycosylation aids in the discovery of novel biomarkers as well as the understanding of the pathophysiology of illness. In this work, a nitrogen/titanium-rich porous organic polymer was developed by copolymerizing carbohydrazide (CH) and 2,3-dihydroxyterephthalaldehyde (2,3-Dha) and modifying with Ti4+ (CH-Dha-Ti4+). The adequate nitrogen contributes to the enrichment of glycopeptides via HILIC, while titanium benefits from capturing phosphopeptides through IMAC. The proposed method exhibits excellent selectivity (1 : 1000, both for glycopeptides and phosphopeptides), LOD (for glycopeptides: 0.05 fmol μL-1, for phosphopeptides: 0.2 fmol), loading capacity (for glycopeptides: 100 mg g-1, for phosphopeptides: 125 mg g-1) and size-exclusion effect (1 : 10 000, both for glycopeptides and phosphopeptides). Furthermore, CH-Dha-Ti4+ was applied to capture glycopeptides and phosphopeptides from human serum; 205 glycopeptides and 45 phosphopeptides were detected in the serum of normal controls; and 294 glycopeptides and 63 phosphopeptides were found in the serum of uremia patients after being analyzed by nano LC-MS/MS. The discovered glycopeptides and phosphopeptides were involved in several molecular biological processes and activities, according to a gene ontology study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Calcium is important in the formation of bones and teeth, cell metabolism, and other physiological activities. In this work, casein phosphopeptide-calcium chelate (CPP-Ca) was synthesized and the optimal process parameters for the chelation reaction were obtained. The bioavailability of calcium in CPP-Ca was investigated by in vitro gastrointestinal simulated digestion. The existence of phytic acid and oxalic acid in the digestion system was evaluated to clarify the calcium holding ability of casein phosphopeptide (CPP). Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was used to identify oligopeptides from CPP-Ca. RESULTS The optimal process parameters for the chelation reaction were: peptide concentration 7.76 mgmL-1 , pH 8.54, and reaction temperature 43.3 °C. The digestion in vitro results indicated that the calcium release rate of CPP-Ca in the stomach for 2 h reached 85%, and about 50% of the ionized calcium was re-chelated with CPP in the intestine. Phytic acid and oxalic acid could lead to a sharp decrease in soluble calcium but around 50% of the calcium was still retained in the form of chelates in the presence of CPP. The LC-MS/MS identified 19 casein-derived oligopeptides after digestion, and calcium modifications were found on eight peptides derived from β-casein and αs2 -casein. CONCLUSIONS This study clarified the excellent calcium holding capacity of CPP in the presence of phytic acid and oxalic acid. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry also revealed peptide changes, and identified peptides that chelate with calcium. These findings provided significant insights that could be relevant to the further utilization and product development of peptide-calcium chelate in the food industry. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Charging of analytes is a prerequisite for performing mass spectrometry analysis. In proteomics, electrospray ionization is the dominant technique for this process. Although the observation of differences in the peptide charge state distribution (CSD) is well-known among experimentalists, its analytical value remains underexplored. To investigate the utility of this dimension, we analyzed several public data sets, comprising over 250,000 peptide CSD profiles from the human proteome. We found that the dimensions of the CSD demonstrate high reproducibility across multiple laboratories, mass analyzers, and extensive time intervals. The general observation was that the CSD enabled effective partitioning of the peptide property space, resulting in enhanced discrimination between sequence and constitutional peptide isomers. Next, by evaluating the CSD values of phosphorylated peptides, we were able to differentiate between phosphopeptides that indicate the formation of intramolecular structures in the gas phase and those that do not. The reproducibility of the CSD values (mean cosine similarity above 0.97 for most of the experiments) qualified CSD data suitable to train a deep-learning model capable of accurately predicting CSD values (mean cosine similarity - 0.98). When we applied the CSD dimension to MS1- and MS2-based proteomics experiments, we consistently observed around a 5% increase in protein and peptide identification rate. Even though the CSD dimension is not as effective a discriminator as the widely used retention time dimension, it still holds the potential for application in direct infusion proteomics.

Abstract
High-performance reusable materials from renewable resources are rare and urgently required in bioseparation. Herein, a series of tannic acid-chitosan composite membranes for the enrichment of phosphopeptides were fabricated by the freeze casting method. First, a tannic acid-chitosan composite membrane was acquired via the multiple hydrogen bonds between tannic acid and chitosan, which had a long-range aligned three-dimensional microstructure. Second, a covalent-hydrogen bond hybrid composite was also fabricated, with stable and aligned honeycomb-like microstructures that formed by the synergy of covalence and hydrogen bonding. Besides, a ternary composite membrane was "one-pot" synthesized by the copolymerization of tannic acid, chitosan, and Ti4+ ions, indicating the feasibility of involving metal ions in the composition of the polymer skeleton in place of additional modification steps. The as-prepared chitosan composite membranes exhibited excellent performance in the enrichment of phosphopeptides from β-casein tryptic digest and human serum. Benefitting from the long-range aligned honeycomb-like structure coordinated by hydrogen bonds and covalent bonds, and a large number of pyrogallol functional groups provided by tannic acid, the covalent-hydrogen bond hybrid membrane showed excellent reusability and could be reused up to 16 times in phosphopeptide enrichment, as far as we know, which is the best reported result to date.

Abstract
Hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) have emerged as a promising class of materials for applications of separation and enrichment. Utilizing multiple-ligands to construct HOFs is a promising avenue towards the development of structurally stable and functionally diverse frameworks, offering opportunities to create customized binding sites for selective recognition of biomolecules. In recent years, due to the crucial role that protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) play in maintaining protein function and regulating signaling pathways, and the growing recognition of the extensive cross-talk that can occur between PTMs, simultaneous analysis of different types of PTMs represents a requirement of a new generation of enrichment materials. Here, for the first attempt, we report a dual-ligand HOF constructed from borate anion and guanidinium cation for the simultaneous identification of glycopeptides and phosphopeptides, especially mono-phosphopeptides. According to theoretical calculations, the HOF functional sites display a synergistic "matching" effect with mono-phosphopeptides, resulting in a stronger enrichment effect for mono-phosphopeptides as compared to multi-phosphopeptides. Also, due to its high hydrophilicity and boronate affinity, this material can efficiently capture glycoproteins. HOF is set to become an active research direction in the development of highly efficient simultaneous protein enrichment materials, and offers a new approach for comprehensive PTMs analysis.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation regulates a variety of important cellular and physiological processes in plants. In-depth profiling of plant phosphoproteomes has been more technically challenging than that of animal phosphoproteomes. This is largely due to the need to improve protein extraction efficiency from plant cells, which have a dense cell wall, and to minimize sample loss resulting from the stringent sample clean-up steps required for the removal of a large amount of biomolecules interfering with phosphopeptide purification and mass spectrometry analysis. To this end, we developed a method with a streamlined workflow for highly efficient purification of phosphopeptides from tissues of various green organisms including Arabidopsis, rice, tomato, and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, enabling in-depth identification with high quantitative reproducibility of about 11 000 phosphosites, the greatest depth achieved so far with single liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) runs operated in a data-dependent acquisition (DDA) mode. The mainstay features of the method are the minimal sample loss achieved through elimination of sample clean-up before protease digestion and of desalting before phosphopeptide enrichment and hence the dramatic increases of time- and cost-effectiveness. The method, named GreenPhos, combined with single-shot LC-MS, enabled in-depth quantitative identification of Arabidopsis phosphoproteins, including differentially phosphorylated spliceosomal proteins, at multiple time points during salt stress and a number of kinase substrate motifs. GreenPhos is expected to serve as a universal method for purification of plant phosphopeptides, which, if samples are further fractionated and analyzed by multiple LC-MS runs, could enable measurement of plant phosphoproteomes with an unprecedented depth using a given mass spectrometry technology.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation is an important post-translational modification (PTM), which is involved in many important cellular functions. Understanding protein phosphorylation at the molecular level is critical to deciphering its relevant biological processes and signaling networks. Mass spectrometry (MS) has become a powerful tool for the comprehensive profiling of protein phosphorylation. Yet the low ionization efficiency and low abundance of phosphopeptides among complex biological samples make its MS analysis challenging; an enrichment strategy with high efficiency and selectivity is always necessary prior to MS analysis. In this study, we developed a phosphorylated cotton-fiber-based Ti(IV)-IMAC material (termed as Cotton Ti-IMAC) that can serve as a novel platform for phosphopeptide enrichment. The cotton fiber can be effectively grafted with phosphate groups covalently in a single step, where the titanium ions can then be immobilized to enable capturing phosphopeptides. The material can be prepared using cost-effective reagents within only 4 h. Benefiting from the flexibility and filterability of cotton fibers, the material can be easily packed as a spin-tip and make the enrichment process convenient. Cotton Ti-IMAC successfully enriched phosphopeptides from protein standard digests and exhibited a high selectivity (BSA/β-casein = 1000:1) and excellent sensitivity (0.1 fmol/μL). Moreover, 2354 phosphopeptides were profiled in one LC-MS/MS injection after enriching from only 100 μg of HeLa cell digests with an enrichment specificity of up to 97.51%. Taken together, we believe that Cotton Ti-IMAC can serve as a widely applicable and robust platform for achieving large-scale phosphopeptide enrichment and expanding our knowledge of phosphoproteomics in complex biological systems.

Abstract
Sodium bicarbonate stress caused by NaHCO3 is one of the most severe abiotic stresses affecting agricultural production worldwide. However, little attention has been given to the molecular mechanisms underlying plant responses to sodium bicarbonate stress. To understand phosphorylation events in signaling pathways triggered by sodium bicarbonate stress, TMT-labeling-based quantitative phosphoproteomic analyses were performed on soybean leaf and root tissues under 50 mM NaHCO3 treatment. In the present study, a total of 7856 phosphopeptides were identified from cultivated soybeans (Glycine max L. Merr.), representing 3468 phosphoprotein groups, in which 2427 phosphoprotein groups were newly identified. These phosphoprotein groups contained 6326 unique high-probability phosphosites (UHPs), of which 77.2% were newly identified, increasing the current soybean phosphosite database size by 43.4%. Among the phosphopeptides found in this study, we determined 67 phosphopeptides (representing 63 phosphoprotein groups) from leaf tissue and 554 phosphopeptides (representing 487 phosphoprotein groups) from root tissue that showed significant changes in phosphorylation levels under sodium bicarbonate stress (fold change >1.2 or <0.83, respectively; p < 0.05). Localization prediction showed that most phosphoproteins localized in the nucleus for both leaf and root tissues. GO and KEGG enrichment analyses showed quite different enriched functional terms between leaf and root tissues, and more pathways were enriched in the root tissue than in the leaf tissue. Moreover, a total of 53 different protein kinases and 7 protein phosphatases were identified from the differentially expressed phosphoproteins (DEPs). A protein kinase/phosphatase interactor analysis showed that the interacting proteins were mainly involved in/with transporters/membrane trafficking, transcriptional level regulation, protein level regulation, signaling/stress response, and miscellaneous functions. The results presented in this study reveal insights into the function of post-translational modification in plant responses to sodium bicarbonate stress.

Abstract
Casein kinase 1 (CK1) is serine/threonine protein kinase highly conserved among eukaryotes, and regulates multiple developmental and signaling events through phosphorylation of target proteins. Arabidopsis early flowering 1 (EL1)-like (AELs) are plant-specific CK1s with varied functions, but identification and validation of their substrates is a major bottleneck in elucidating their physiological roles. Here, we conducted a quantitative phosphoproteomic analysis in data-independent acquisition mode to systematically identify CK1 substrates. We extracted proteins from seedlings overexpressing individual AEL genes (AEL1/2/3/4-OE) or lacking AEL function (all ael single mutants and two triple mutants) to identify the high-confidence phosphopeptides with significantly altered abundance compared to wild-type Col-0. Among these, we selected 3985 phosphopeptides with higher abundance in AEL-OE lines or lower abundance in ael mutants compared with Col-0 as AEL-upregulated phosphopeptides, and defined 1032 phosphoproteins. Eight CK1s substrate motifs were enriched among AEL-upregulated phosphopeptides and verified, which allowed us to predict additional candidate substrates and functions of CK1s. We functionally characterized a newly identified substrate C3H17, a CCCH-type zinc finger transcription factor, through biochemical and genetic analyses, revealing a role for AEL-promoted C3H17 protein stability and transactivation activity in regulating embryogenesis. As CK1s are highly conserved across eukaryotes, we searched the rice, mouse, and human protein databases using newly identified CK1 substrate motifs, yielding many more candidate substrates than currently known, largely expanding our understanding of the common and distinct functions exerted by CK1s in Arabidopsis and humans, facilitating future mechanistic studies of CK1-mediated phosphorylation in different species.

Abstract
Plant phosphoproteomics provides a global view of phosphorylation-mediated signaling in plants; however, it demands high-throughput methods with sensitive detection and accurate quantification. Despite the widespread use of protein precipitation for removing contaminants and improving sample purity, it limits the sensitivity and throughput of plant phosphoproteomic analysis. The multiple handling steps involved in protein precipitation lead to sample loss and process variability. Herein, we developed an approach based on suspension trapping (S-Trap), termed tandem S-Trap-IMAC (immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography), by integrating an S-Trap micro-column with a Fe-IMAC tip. Compared with a precipitation-based workflow, the tandem S-Trap-IMAC method deepened the coverage of the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) phosphoproteome by more than 30%, with improved number of multiply phosphorylated peptides, quantification accuracy, and short sample processing time. We applied the tandem S-Trap-IMAC method for studying abscisic acid (ABA) signaling in Arabidopsis seedlings. We thus discovered that a significant proportion of the phosphopeptides induced by ABA are multiply phosphorylated peptides, indicating their importance in early ABA signaling and quantified several key phosphorylation sites on core ABA signaling components across four time points. Our results show that the optimized workflow aids high-throughput phosphoproteome profiling of low-input plant samples.

Abstract
There is growing interest in the development of materials for enriching proteins and phosphoproteins from complex sample matrices for mass spectrometric analysis. Herein, we designed and synthesized two types of magnetic resin composites, i.e., MTS9200@Fe3O4 and FPA90CL@Fe3O4, and assessed their applications as adsorbents for enriching proteins, peptides and phosphopeptides. With the combination of Fe3+-IMAC interaction (MTS9200) or electrostatic attraction (FPA90CL) of resins and the adsorption of Fe3O4, the prepared composites exhibited higher capacities for adsorbing a protein (bovine serum albumin, at 195.71 and 135.03 mg g-1 for MTS9200@Fe3O4 and FPA90CL@Fe3O4, respectively) than MTS9200, FPA90CL and Fe3O4. In addition, due to the contributions of the hydrophobic skeleton of resins and Fe3O4, the magnetic resin composites allowed for efficient enrichment of peptides. Moreover, through Fe3+-IMAC interaction or electrostatic attraction of resins and Fe-O MOAC interaction of Fe3O4 with phosphate groups, phosphopeptides could also be captured. Furthermore, we employed the prepared composites for enriching proteins and phosphopeptides from human serum, where 466 and 506 proteins, and 434 and 356 phosphorylation sites, were detected from human serum after being processed with FPA90CL@Fe3O4 and MTS9200@Fe3O4, respectively. Together, our work revealed the great potential of magnetic resin composites as enrichment materials for proteomics and phosphoproteomics analysis.

Abstract
Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) can increase the proliferation of infected cells during HPV-driven abnormalities, such as cervical cancer or benign warts. To date, more than 200 HPV genotypes have been identified, most of which are classified into three major genera: Alphapapillomavirus, Betapapillomavirus, and Gammapapillomavirus. HPV genomes commonly encode two structural (L1 and L2) and seven functional (E1, E2, E4-E7, and E8) proteins. L2, the minor structural protein of HPVs, not only serves as a viral capsid component but also interacts with various human proteins during viral infection. A recent report revealed that L2 of HPV16 recruits polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1), a master regulator of eukaryotic mitosis and cell cycle progression, for the delivery of viral DNA to mitotic chromatin during HPV16 infection. In this study, we verified the direct and potent interactions between the polo-box domain (PBD) of Plk1 and PBD-binding motif (S-S-pT-P)-containing phosphopeptides derived from L2 of HPV16/HPV18 (high-risk alphapapillomaviruses), HPV5b (low-risk betapapillomavirus), and HPV4 (low-risk gammapapillomavirus). Subsequent structural determination of the Plk1 PBD bound to the HPV18 or HPV4 L2-derived phosphopeptide demonstrated that they interact with each other in a canonical manner, in which electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonds play key roles in sustaining the complex. Therefore, our structural and biochemical data imply that Plk1 is a broad binding target of L2 of various HPV genotypes belonging to the Alpha-, Beta-, and Gammapapillomavirus genera.

Abstract
MXenes have received lots of attention since discovered and have been applied in various fields. In this work, Ti3C2-Fe3O4 composites with exposed non-modified Ti3C2 MXene nanosheets were designed and prepared by an in situ growth strategy and then applied in the enrichment of phosphopeptides. The two-dimensional composites could interact with the phosphopeptides through a metal oxide affinity chromatography mechanism provided by Ti-O and Fe-O bonds and a hydrophilic interaction chromatography mechanism by surface hydroxyl groups. This magnetic nanomaterial with a specific surface area of 66.1 m2·g-1 had high sensitivity to phosphopeptides (0.5 nmol·L-1) and high selectivity (1:1000 of the molar ratio of β-casein to bovine serum albumin). Non-fat milk was adopted as a real sample to preliminarily examine the applicability of the Ti3C2-Fe3O4-based protocol. Subsequently, Qingkailing injection, a kind of traditional Chinese medicine injection, was introduced to further explore the suitability of the nanocomposites for phosphopeptide enrichment from more complex matrices and satisfactory results were obtained.

Abstract
Here, we present a protocol to identify and quantify phosphopeptides during the dynamic formation of an immunological synapse. We describe steps for mixing isotope-labeled immune and target cells, the stabilization of cell-to-cell conjugates by cross-linking, and their isolation by fluorescence-activated cell sorting. We detail the isolation of phosphopeptides by phosphopeptide enrichment and their subsequent measurement by mass spectrometry. Finally, we describe the analysis of the resulting data to separate cell-specific phosphopeptides using the isotope label and label-free quantification.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder of increasing concern. It belongs to diseases termed tauopathies which are characterized by inclusions of abnormally hyperphosphorylated and truncated forms of the protein tau. Studies of tauopathies often focus on detection and characterization of these aberrant tau proteoforms, in particular the phosphorylation sites, which represent a significant analytical challenge for example when several phosphosites can be present on the same peptide. Such isomers can even be difficult to fully separate chromatographically. Since recently introduced cyclic ion mobility-mass spectrometry can offer different selectivity, we have investigated the closely positioned phosphorylation sites S214, T212, and T217 of a tryptic peptide from proline rich region of tau-TPSLPTPPTREPK. The conformational heterogeneity of the isomeric peptides in the gas phase hindered their separation due to their overlapping arrival time distributions. Increasing the resolution of the analysis alone is insufficient to distinguish the peptides in a mixture typical of patient samples. We therefore developed a method based on a combination of collision-induced dissociation, isomeric product ions (m/z 677) mobility separation and post-mobility dissociation to aid in analyzing the isomeric phosphopeptides of tau in diseased brain extract. For all three isomers (T212, S214, and T217), the ion mobility signal of the ion at m/z 677 was still observable at the concentration of 0.1 nmol/L. This work not only offers insights into the phosphorylation of tau protein in AD but also provides an analytical workflow for the characterization of challenging pathological protein modifications in neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Dual-selective enrichment of phosphopeptides and glycopeptides of post-translational modifications (PTMs) in the complex biological samples are challenging. In this work, considering the versatile properties including surface abundant metal sites and electrostatic attraction between Ti3 C2 -layers and Al-layers, layered ternary carbides Ti3 AlC2 nanomaterials was successfully applied for the first time as an affinity adsorbent for the dual-selective capture of phosphopeptides and glycopeptides. Especially, the Ti3 AlC2 nanomaterials had an excellent detection sensitivity for phosphopeptides (1×10-11 M) and a good selectivity for glycopeptides with a low molar ratio of 1 : 500 of HRP (horseradish peroxidase) to BSA (bovine serum albumin). Furthermore, Ti3 AlC2 nanomaterials was also applied for dual-selective enrichment of phosphopeptides and glycopeptides from mouse brain neocortex lysate and human serum lysate respectively before mass spectrometry (MS) analysis, yielding twenty-two unique phosphopeptides from thirteen phosphoproteins and fifty-three unique glycopeptides from thirty-seven glycoproteins, respectively. This work will open a new avenue and will greatly promote sample preparation for mass spectrometric analysis in phosphoproteomics and glycoproteomics research.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry-based proteomics provide a powerful tool for plant research, allowing global detection of steady-state levels of proteins under a given experimental setup. Here, we provide an optimized protocol for proteomic profiling using tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling followed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to quantitate phosphopeptides and non-phosphopeptides from the same samples. The outlined protocol comprises a series of successive steps, namely, SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) protein extraction, protein precipitation, digestion, TMT labeling, phosphopeptide enrichment, high pH reversed-phase fractionation, LC-MS/MS analysis, protein identification, and data analysis. Our proteome-scale protocol requires 0.1 mg protein per sample and allows for the reliable and accurate quantification of more than 8000 proteins in Arabidopsis plant samples across multiple conditions, including low abundant peptides.

Abstract
The systematic and in-depth study of phosphoproteome rely on highly reproducible and specific phosphopeptide enrichment methods. At present, a variety of enrichment methods have been developed based on different principles, and these methods often display different selectivity and specificity. It is therefore very important to select the most suitable enrichment method according to different research purposes. This review summarized the phosphopeptide enrichment based on affinity chromatography, immunoprecipitation, chemical derivatization, chromatography and other newly developed methods. The advantages and disadvantages of these methods, as well as the related optimization and improvement strategies, were discussed in detail. In addition, we also briefly summarized the progress of the combination of phosphopeptide enrichment and fractionation methods developed in recent years.

Abstract
Calcium is one of the important elements for human health. Calcium deficiencies can lead to numerous diseases. Calcium chelating peptides have shown potential application in the management of calcium deficiencies. Casein phosphopeptides (CPP) are phosphoseryl-containing fragments of casein by enzymatic hydrolysis or fermentation during manufacture of milk products as well as during intestinal digestion. An increasing number of CPP with the ability to facilitate and enhance the bioavailability of calcium are being discovered and identified. In this review, 249 reported CPP derived from four types of bovine casein (αs1, αs2, β and κ) were collected, and the amino acid sequence and phosphoserine group information were sorted out. This review outlines the current enzyme hydrolysis, detection methods, purification, structure-activity relationship and mechanism of intestinal calcium absorption in vitro and in vivo as well as application of CPP.

Abstract
RATIONALE The identification and evaluation of novel biomarkers are essential to clinical diagnosis and prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC). Serum phosphopeptides have been recognized as a potential signature pool for cancers; therefore, we aim to profile the expression of serum phosphopeptides and to evaluate their feasibility in CRC diagnosis. METHODS We conducted the characterization and absolute quantification of endogenous phosphopeptides in sera using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis in combination with enrichment of phosphopeptides by ZrAs-Fe3 O4 @SiO2 nanoparticles and use of deuterium-labeled standards. Differentially expressed analysis of four phosphopeptides was performed, generating a two-phosphopeptide-based biomarker, LF3-4 , by logistic regression analysis, where LF3-4 is equal to (5.85 - 5.13 × [F3] - 3.57 × [F4]), and [F3] and [F4] are the concentration of phosphopeptides DpSGEGDFLAEGGGVR and ADpSGEGDFLAEGGGVR in sera, respectively. RESULTS The LF3-4 values showed significant difference in CRC cases compared with controls, and yielded a specificity of 100%, leading to correct classification of 56 (93%) out of 60 CRC patients, including 12 (92.3%) of 13 CRC cases in stage I. Double-blind validation showed that 97.5% of CRC cases were discriminated accurately. CONCLUSIONS The LF3-4 value was firstly verified to be a potential biomarker for CRC diagnosis, and may expand our view in underlying mechanisms for CRC.

Abstract
Collisionally activated dissociation (CAD), infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD), ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD), electron capture dissociation and electron detachment dissociation (EDD) experiments were conducted on a set of phosphopeptides, in a Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer. The fragmentation patterns were compared and varied according to the fragmentation mechanisms and the composition of the peptides. CAD and IRMPD produced similar fragmentation profiles of the phosphopeptides, while UVPD produced a large number of complementary fragments. Electron-based dissociation techniques displayed lower fragmentation efficiencies, despite retaining the labile phosphate group, and drastically different fragmentation profiles. EDD produced complex spectra whose interpretation proved challenging.

Abstract
We investigated the feasibility of detecting the presence of specific autoantibodies against potential tumor-associated peptide antigens by enriching these antibody-peptide complexes using Melon Gel resin and mass spectrometry. Our goal was to find tumor-associated phospho-sites that trigger immunoreactions and raise autoantibodies that are detectable in plasma of glioma patients. Such immunoglobulins can potentially be used as targets in immunotherapy. To that aim, we describe a method to detect the presence of antibodies in biological samples that are specific to selected clinically relevant peptides. The method is based on the formation of antibody-peptide complexes by mixing patient plasma with a glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) derived peptide library, enrichment of antibodies and antibody-peptide complexes, the separation of peptides after they are released from immunoglobulins by molecular weight filtration and finally mass spectrometric quantification of these peptides. As proof of concept, we successfully applied the method to dinitrophenyl (DNP)-labeled α-casein peptides mixed with anti-DNP. Further, we incubated human plasma with a phospho-peptide library and conducted targeted analysis on EGFR and GFAP phospho-peptides. As a result, immunoaffinity against phospho-peptide GSHQIS[+80]LDNPDYQQDFFPK (EGFR phospho-site S1166) was detected in high-grade glioma (HGG) patient plasma but not in healthy donor plasma. For the GFAP phospho-sites selected, such immunoaffinity was not observed.

Abstract
Global and phosphoproteome profiling has demonstrated great utility for the analysis of clinical specimens. One barrier to the broad clinical application of proteomic profiling is the large amount of biological material required, particularly for phosphoproteomics─currently on the order of 25 mg wet tissue weight. For hematopoietic cancers such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the sample requirement is ≥10 million peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Across large study cohorts, this requirement will exceed what is obtainable for many individual patients/time points. For this reason, we were interested in the impact of differential peptide loading across multiplex channels on proteomic data quality. To achieve this, we tested a range of channel loading amounts (approximately the material obtainable from 5E5, 1E6, 2.5E6, 5E6, and 1E7 AML patient cells) to assess proteome coverage, quantification precision, and peptide/phosphopeptide detection in experiments utilizing isobaric tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling. As expected, fewer missing values were observed in TMT channels with higher peptide loading amounts compared to lower loadings. Moreover, channels with a lower loading have greater quantitative variability than channels with higher loadings. A statistical analysis showed that decreased loading amounts result in an increase in the type I error rate. We then examined the impact of differential loading on the detection of known differences between distinct AML cell lines. Similar patterns of increased data missingness and higher quantitative variability were observed as loading was decreased resulting in fewer statistical differences; however, we found good agreement in features identified as differential, demonstrating the value of this approach.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of viral proteins serves as a regulatory mechanism during the intracellular life cycle of infected viruses. There is therefore a pressing need to develop a method to efficiently purify and enrich phosphopeptides derived from viral particles in biological samples. In this study, we utilized Phos-tag technology to analyze the functional phosphorylation of the nucleocapsid protein (N protein; NP) of severe respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Viral particles were collected from culture supernatants of SARS-CoV-2-infected VeroE6/TMPRSS2 cells by ultracentrifugation, and phosphopeptides were purified by Phos-tag magnetic beads for LC-MS/MS analysis. Analysis revealed that NP was reproducibly phosphorylated at serine 79 (Ser79). Multiple sequence alignment and phylogenetic analysis showed that the Ser79 was a distinct phospho-acceptor site in SARS-CoV-2 but not in other beta-coronaviruses. We also found that the prolyl-isomerase Pin1 bound to the phosphorylated Ser79 in NP and positively regulated the production of viral particles. These results suggest that SARS-CoV-2 may have acquired the potent virus-host interaction during its evolution mediated by viral protein phosphorylation. Moreover, Phos-tag technology can provide a useful means for analyzing the functional phosphorylation of viral proteins. Significance In this study, we aimed to investigate the functional phosphorylation of SARS-CoV-2 NP. For this purpose, we used Phos-tag technology to purify and enrich virus-derived phosphopeptides with high selectivity and reproducibility. This method can be particularly useful in analyzing viral phosphopeptides from cell culture supernatants that often contain high concentrations of fetal bovine serum and supplements. We newly identified an NP phosphorylation site at Ser79, which is important for Pin1 binding. Furthermore, we showed that the interaction between Pin1 and phosphorylated NP could enhance viral replication in a cell culture model.

Abstract
Despite the fact that bimetallic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) could afford multiple functionalities by a synergistic effect of individual metallic centers, their intrinsic microporous structure frequently restricts their wide applications with bulky molecules involved. An urgent need is consequently triggered to design bimetallic hierarchical mesoporous MOFs (mesoMOFs). Herein, Zr/Ce mesoMOFs with a uniform pore size of up to 8 nm was successfully synthesized by a copolymer template strategy with the aid of a Hoffmeister ion. The obtained Zr/Ce mesoMOFs feature high porosity, good chemical and thermal stabilities, and tunable element components, and up to 70% Zr could be incorporated into the mesoporous Ce-based framework without deteriorating its crystallinity. Thanks to the synergistic effect of inherent Ce and Zr as well as the large and open pore channels, a broad range of phosphopeptides with different molecule sizes could be effectively checked out, thanks to their simultaneous enrichment and dephosphorylation capabilities. Such an ability to efficiently concentrate phosphopeptides remained intact even in the presence of abundant non-phosphorylated species. The practical detection of phosphopeptides from human serum was also verified, prefiguring the great potentials of bimetallic large-pore mesoMOFs for the proteome applications.

Abstract
Smart responsive materials have attractive application prospects due to their tunable behaviors. In this work, we design novel spiropyran (SP)-based magnetic nanoparticles (MNP-SP) with dual response to ultraviolet light and pH and apply them to the enrichment of phosphopeptides. SP is modified on the surface of magnetic nanoparticles through a simple esterification reaction, based on which an MNP-SP-MS phosphopeptide identification platform is established. The capture and release of phosphopeptides are facilely adjusted by changing external light and the pH of the solution. The smart responsive MNP-SP has fast magnetic response performance, high sensitivity (detection limit of 0.4 fmol), and good reusability (6 cycles). In addition, MNP-SP is used for the enrichment of phosphopeptides in skimmed milk, human saliva, and human serum samples, indicating that it is an ideal adsorbent for enriching low-abundance phosphopeptides in complex biological environments.

Abstract
RATIONALE Compared with phosphorylation of arginine and histidine, the study of phosphorylation of lysine lags far behind. The major challenges toward the current study of phosphorylation of lysine include synthesis and unambiguous phosphosite identification. This study provided a simple chemical synthesis method to construct phospholysine peptides (pLys peptides) and investigated their fragmentation under multiple activation types. METHODS Herein, we developed a synthetic method for pLys peptides in aqueous solution within one pot. Two peptides were lysine-phosphorylated using this method. The purified pLys peptides were first characterized using NMR, then were subjected to nano-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (nanoLC-MS/MS) analysis under multiple fragmentation method including collision-induced dissociation (CID), higher energy collisional dissociation (HCD), electron transfer dissociation (ETD), electron transfer/higher energy collisional dissociation (EThcD), and ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) fragmentation to investigate the relevant diagnostic ions. RESULTS Two pLys peptides were synthesized with a moderate yield following an easily handled experimental protocol. NMR spectra showed the phosphorylation occurred on ε-NH2 of lysine but not other groups. As for the fragmentation, in general, pLys immonium ions and phosphate-related neutral losses were ubiquitous among spectra derived from these activation types except for ETD. Using these ions as diagnostic ions, the misassigned phosphosites by algorithm could be recorrected. UVPD-generated spectra owned good sequence-coverage and abundant fragment ions, with pLys immonium ions and neutral losses of weak intensity. CONCLUSIONS A synthetic method was developed for pLys peptides in aqueous solution within one pot. The characteristic pLys immonium ions and phosphate-related neutral loss could serve as the diagnostic ions for unambiguous phosphosite identification of pLys peptides. In addition, UVPD was promising for the identification of pLys peptides.

Abstract
Highly efficient enrichment of phosphopeptides is of great significance for phosphoproteomics-related biological and pathological processes research, but it remains challenging due to the lack of affinity materials which hold high enrichment efficiency and capacity. Ti3C2Tx MXene, a novel two-dimensional material with outstanding physicochemical properties, has attracted wide research interests for application in various fields. However, there are few reports on the use of MXene-derived materials for phosphopeptides separation in the biomedical field. In this work, we proposed a facile one-pot method that in situ oxidation and modification of Ti3C2Tx MXene, to prepare two-dimensional (2D) magnetic Fe3O4/TiO2@Ti3C2Tx composites for potential application in phosphopeptides enrichment. Benefiting from the outstanding magnetic responsiveness and multiaffinity sites (Ti-O, Fe-O, and NH2 groups), the Fe3O4/TiO2@Ti3C2Tx composites possessed excellent enrichment performance with high sensitivity (0.1 fmol μL-1), excellent selectivity (β-casein: bovine serum albumin = 1:5000, molar ratio), good repeatability (5 times), and high enrichment capacity (200 mg g-1). Moreover, the results of selective enrichment of phosphopeptides from nonfat milk, human saliva, human serum, and rat brain lysates indicated the great potential of Fe3O4/TiO2@Ti3C2Tx composites in low-abundance phosphopeptides enrichment from complex biological samples. This work has put forward a versatile method to prepare magnetic MXene composites and promoted the use of MXene composites in phosphoproteome in biomedicine.

Abstract
Electron-based dissociation (ExD) produces uncluttered mass spectra of intact proteins while preserving labile post-translational modifications. However, technical challenges have limited this option to only a few high-end mass spectrometers. We have developed an efficient ExD cell that can be retrofitted in less than an hour into current LC/Q-TOF instruments. Supporting software has been developed to acquire, process, and annotate peptide and protein ExD fragmentation spectra. In addition to producing complementary fragmentation, ExD spectra enable many isobaric leucine/isoleucine and isoaspartate/aspartate pairs to be distinguished by side-chain fragmentation. The ExD cell preserves phosphorylation and glycosylation modifications. It also fragments longer peptides more efficiently to reveal signaling cross-talk between multiple post-translational modifications on the same protein chain and cleaves disulfide bonds in cystine knotted proteins and intact antibodies. The ability of the ExD cell to combine collisional activation with electron fragmentation enables more complete sequence coverage by disrupting intramolecular electrostatic interactions that can hold fragments of large peptides and proteins together. These enhanced capabilities made possible by the ExD cell expand the size of peptides and proteins that can be analyzed as well as the analytical certainty of characterizing their post-translational modifications.

Abstract
Human Nbs1, a component of the MRN complex involved in DNA double strand break repair, contains a concatenated N-terminal FHA-BRCT1/2 sequence that supports interaction with multiple phosphopeptide binding partners. MDC1 binding localizes Nbs1 to the damage site, while binding of CDK-phosphorylated CtIP activates additional ATM-dependent CtIP phosphorylation, modulating substrate-dependent resection. We have investigated the phosphopeptide binding characteristics of Nbs1 BRCT1/2 based on a molecular modeling approach that revealed structural homology with the tandem TopBP1 BRCT7/8 domains. Relevance of the model was substantiated by the ability of TopBP1-binding FANCJ phosphopeptide to interact with hsNbsBRCT1/2, albeit with lower affinity. The modeled BRCT1/2 is characterized by low pSer/pThr selectivity, preference for a cationic residue at the + 2 position, and an inter-domain binding cleft selective for hydrophobic residues at the + 3/ + 4 positions. These features provide insight into the basis for interaction of SDT motifs with the BRCT1/2 domains and allowed identification of CtIP pSer347- and pThr847-containing phosphopeptides as high and lower affinity ligands, respectively. Among other binding partners considered, rodent XRCC1 contains an SDT sequence in the second linker consistent with high-affinity Nbs1 binding, while human XRCC1 lacks this motif, but contains other phosphorylated sequences that exhibit low-affinity binding.

Abstract
The coronavirus nucleocapsid protein (N) controls viral genome packaging and contains numerous phosphorylation sites located within unstructured regions. Binding of phosphorylated SARS-CoV N to the host 14-3-3 protein in the cytoplasm was reported to regulate nucleocytoplasmic N shuttling. All seven isoforms of the human 14-3-3 are abundantly present in tissues vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2, where N can constitute up to ~1% of expressed proteins during infection. Although the association between 14-3-3 and SARS-CoV-2 N proteins can represent one of the key host-pathogen interactions, its molecular mechanism and the specific critical phosphosites are unknown. Here, we show that phosphorylated SARS-CoV-2 N protein (pN) dimers, reconstituted via bacterial co-expression with protein kinase A, directly associate, in a phosphorylation-dependent manner, with the dimeric 14-3-3 protein, but not with its monomeric mutant. We demonstrate that pN is recognized by all seven human 14-3-3 isoforms with various efficiencies and deduce the apparent KD to selected isoforms, showing that these are in a low micromolar range. Serial truncations pinpointed a critical phosphorylation site to Ser197, which is conserved among related zoonotic coronaviruses and located within the functionally important, SR-rich region of N. The relatively tight 14-3-3/pN association could regulate nucleocytoplasmic shuttling and other functions of N via occlusion of the SR-rich region, and could also hijack cellular pathways by 14-3-3 sequestration. As such, the assembly may represent a valuable target for therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Replication protein A (RPA) is a eukaryotic ssDNA-binding protein and contains three subunits: RPA70, RPA32, and RPA14. Phosphorylation of the N-terminal region of the RPA32 subunit plays an essential role in DNA metabolism in processes such as replication and damage response. Phosphorylated RPA32 (pRPA32) binds to RPA70 and possibly regulates the transient RPA70-Bloom syndrome helicase (BLM) interaction to inhibit DNA resection. However, the structural details and determinants of the phosphorylated RPA32-RPA70 interaction are still unknown. In this study, we provide molecular details of the interaction between RPA70 and a mimic of phosphorylated RPA32 (pmRPA32) using fluorescence polarization and NMR analysis. We show that the N-terminal domain of RPA70 (RPA70N) specifically participates in pmRPA32 binding, whereas the unphosphorylated RPA32 does not bind to RPA70N. Our NMR data revealed that RPA70N binds pmRPA32 using a basic cleft region. We also show that at least 6 negatively charged residues of pmRPA32 are required for RPA70N binding. By introducing alanine mutations into hydrophobic positions of pmRPA32, we found potential points of contact between RPA70N and the N-terminal half of pmRPA32. We used this information to guide docking simulations that suggest the orientation of pmRPA32 in complex with RPA70N. Our study demonstrates detailed features of the domain-domain interaction between RPA70 and RPA32 upon phosphorylation. This result provides insight into how phosphorylation tunes transient bindings between RPA and its partners in DNA resection.

Abstract
Comprehensive mass spectrometry-based proteomics analysis is currently available but remains challenging, especially for post-translational modifications of phosphorylated proteins. Herein, multifunctional magnetic pillar[5]arene supramolecular organic frameworks were fabricated and immobilized with arginine (mP5SOF-Arg) for highly effective enrichment of global phosphopeptides. The specific phosphate-P5/phosphate-guanidine affinities and large surface area with regular porosity contribute to the high enrichment capacity. By coupling with mass spectrometry, high detection sensitivity (0.1 fmol), excellent selectivity (1:5000 molar ratios of β-casein/cytochrome c), and high recyclability (seven cycles) were achieved for phosphopeptide analysis. mP5SOF-Arg can efficiently enrich phosphopeptides from practical samples, including defatted milk, egg yolk, and human saliva. Notably, a total of 450 phosphopeptides were explored for highly selective identification from A594 cells and 1445 phosphopeptides were identified from mouse liver tissue samples. mP5SOF-Arg exhibited great potential to serve as the basis for peptidomic research to identify phosphopeptides and provided insight for biomarker discovery.

Abstract
Infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) has been used in mass spectrometry to fragment peptides and proteins, providing fragments mostly similar to collisional activation. Using the 10.6 μm wavelength of a CO2 laser, IRMPD suffers from the relative low absorption cross-section of peptides and small proteins. Focusing on top-down analysis, we investigate different means to tackle this issue. We first reassess efficient sorting of phosphopeptides from nonphosphopeptides based on IR-absorption cross-sectional enhancement by phosphate moieties. We subsequently demonstrate that a myo-inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) noncovalent adduct can substantially enhance IRMPD for nonphosphopeptides and that this strategy can be extended to proteins. As a natural next step, we show that native phospho-proteoforms of proteins display a distinct and enhanced fragmentation, compared to their unmodified counterparts, facilitating phospho-group site localization. We then evaluate the impact of size on the IRMPD of proteins and their complexes. When applied to protein complexes ranging from a 365 kDa CRISPR-Cas Csy ribonucleoprotein hetero-decamer, a 800 kDa GroEL homo-tetradecamer in its apo-form or loaded with its ATP cofactor, to a 1 MDa capsid-like homo-hexacontamer, we conclude that while phosphate moieties present in crRNA and ATP molecules enhance IRMPD, an increase in the IR cross-section with the size of the protein assembly also favorably accrues dissociation yields. Overall, our work showcases the versatility of IRMPD in the top-down analysis of peptides, phosphopeptides, proteins, phosphoproteins, ribonucleoprotein assemblies, and large protein complexes.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are attracting increasing interest with their intriguing role in intercellular communications. Protein phosphorylation in EVs is of great importance for understanding intercellular signaling processes. However, the study of EV phosphoproteomics is impeded by their relatively low amount in limited clinical sample volumes, and it is necessary to have a sensitive and efficient enrichment method for EV phosphopeptides. Herein, a novel Ti(IV)-functionalized and glass fiber-supported hybrid monolithic spin tip, termed PhosTip, was prepared for enriching phosphopeptides from urinary EVs. Glass fiber as the stationary phase positions the hybrid monolith in a standard pipet tip and prevents the monolith from distortion during experiments. The preparation procedure for the new PhosTip is simple and time-saving. The hybrid monolithic PhosTip provides excellent enrichment efficiency of low-abundance phosphopeptides from cell digests and urinary EVs with minimum contamination and sample loss. Using the PhosTip, we demonstrate that 5373 and 336 unique phosphopeptides were identified from 100 and 1 μg of cell lysates, while 3919 and 217 unique phosphopeptides were successfully identified from 10 and 1 mL of urinary samples, respectively. The PhosTip was finally applied to enrich phosphopeptides in urine EVs from prostate cancer patients and healthy controls and quantify 118 up-regulated proteins with phosphosites in prostate cancer samples. These results demonstrated that the PhosTip could be a simple and convenient tool for enriching phosphopeptides from clinical samples and for broader applications in biomarker discovery.

Abstract
RATIONALE Due to the dynamic nature of phosphorylation states and the low stoichiometry of phosphopeptides, it is still a challenge to efficiently capture phosphopeptides from complex biological samples before mass spectrometry analysis. Among the enrichment strategies, metal oxide affinity chromatography (MOAC) is one of the most widely used and the one with the most potential. It is based on reversible Lewis acid-base interactions between the metal oxides and the negatively charged phosphate groups to achieve the specific selection of phosphopeptides. METHODS A novel MOAC affinity probe, denoted as G@PDA@ZrO2 , was successfully synthesized by in situ grafting ZrO2 onto the surface of graphene (G) modified with polydopamine (PDA). The novel MOAC probe thus obtained was used for phosphopeptide enrichment. RESULTS This novel MOAC affinity probe when used to selectively enrich phosphopeptides from standard protein digest solutions exhibited a high selectivity (β-casein:bovine serum albumin = 1:1000), a low detection limit (4 fmol), and a high loading capacity (400 mg/g). At the same time, the experimental results proved that G@PDA@ZrO2 had great recyclability (five cycles), stability, and reproducibility. Subsequently, G@PDA@ZrO2 was applied to enrich phosphopeptides from human saliva and human serum, in which 25 and 4 phosphopeptide peaks, respectively, were detected. CONCLUSIONS This novel MOAC affinity probe (G@PDA@ZrO2 ) showed good performance in enriching phosphopeptides. Thus, G@PDA@ZrO2 has good potential in phosphopeptidomics analysis.

Abstract
The Discoidin, CUB, and LCCL domain-containing protein (DCBLD) family consists of two type-I transmembrane scaffolding receptors, DCBLD1 and DCBLD2, which play important roles in development and cancer. The nonreceptor tyrosine kinases FYN and ABL are known to drive phosphorylation of tyrosine residues in YXXP motifs within the intracellular domains of DCBLD family members, which leads to the recruitment of the Src homology 2 (SH2) domain of the adaptors CT10 regulator of kinase (CRK) and CRK-like (CRKL). We previously characterized the FYN- and ABL-driven phosphorylation of DCBLD family YXXP motifs. However, we have identified additional FYN- and ABL-dependent phosphorylation sites on DCBLD1 and DCBLD2. This suggests that beyond CRK and CRKL, additional DCBLD interactors may be regulated by FYN and ABL activity. Here, we report a quantitative proteomics approach in which we map the FYN- and ABL-regulated interactomes of DCBLD family members. We found FYN and ABL regulated the binding of several signaling molecules to DCBLD1 and DCBLD2, including members of the 14-3-3 family of adaptors. Biochemical investigation of the DCBLD2/14-3-3 interaction revealed ABL-induced binding of 14-3-3 family members directly to DCBLD2.

Abstract
Phosphorylated proteins from food sources have been investigated as regulators of bone formation with potential benefits in treating osteoporosis. Egg, a cheap and nutritious food, is also the source of various proteins and bioactive peptides with applications in human health. Egg yolk is rich in phosvitin, the most phosphorylated protein in nature. Phosvitin has been shown to improve bone health in experimental animals, although the molecular mechanisms and its specific effects on bone-forming osteoblastic cells are incompletely understood. Previous work in our group has identified pancreatin-generated phosvitin phospho-peptides (PPP) as a potential source for bioactive peptides. Given this background, we examined the roles of both phosvitin and PPP in the function of osteoblastic cells. Our results demonstrated their potential to improve bone health by promoting osteoblast differentiation and proliferation, suppressing osteoclast recruitment and the deposition of extracellular matrix, although PPP appeared to demonstrate superior osteogenic functions compared to phosvitin alone.

Abstract
There are plenty of phosphoproteins in chicken egg white (CEW), which are of great significance for the biological activity and function of CEW. In this study, phosphorylated proteins in CEW were identified and analyzed based on two digestion strategies (trypsin and trypsin/glutamyl endoproteinase). Besides, the enrichment strategy of immobilized metal affinity chromatography was used, and phosphopeptides were identified by nano liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry. A total of 189 phosphosites mapped onto 166 phosphopeptides corresponding to 96 phosphoproteins were identified. Gene ontology analysis suggested that these phosphoproteins of CEW mainly participated in biological processes such as "cell process", "biological regulation", and "response to stimulus". Moreover, the phosphoproteins of CEW were involved in molecular functions, primarily including "binding" and "catalytic activity". On the basis of the available literature, the research was the first comprehensive identification of chicken egg white phosphoproteins. This study further enriched the identification of phosphoproteins in CEW and laid a foundation for the subsequent study of phosphoproteins.

Abstract
Intestinal ischemia reperfusion injury (iIRI) is a severe clinical condition presenting high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Some of the systemic consequences of IRI can be prevented by applying ischemic preconditioning (IPC), a series of short ischemia/reperfusion events preceding the major ischemia. Although neutrophils are key players in the pathophysiology of ischemic injuries, neither the dysregulation presented by these cells in iIRI nor the protective effect of iIPC have their regulation mechanisms fully understood. Protein phosphorylation, as well as the regulation of the respective phosphatases and kinases are responsible for regulating a large number of cellular functions in the inflammatory response. Moreover, in previous work we found hydrolases and transferases to be modulated in iIR and iIPC, suggesting the possible involvement of phosphatases and kinases in the process. Therefore, in the present study, we analyzed the phosphoproteome of neutrophils from rats submitted to mesenteric ischemia and reperfusion, either submitted or not to IPC, compared to quiescent controls and sham laparotomy. Proteomic analysis was performed by multi-step enrichment of phosphopeptides, isobaric labeling, and LC-MS/MS analysis. Bioinformatics was used to determine phosphosite and phosphopeptide abundance and clustering, as well as kinases and phosphatases sites and domains. We found that most of the phosphorylation-regulated proteins are involved in apoptosis and migration, and most of the regulatory kinases belong to CAMK and CMGC families. An interesting finding revealed groups of proteins that are modulated by iIR, but such modulation can be prevented by iIPC. Among the regulated proteins related to the iIPC protective effect, Vamp8 and Inpp5d/Ship are discussed as possible candidates for control of the iIR damage.

Abstract
Probiotic and synbiotic yogurt preparations were manufactured at the semi-industrial pilot scale with Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacteria strains without inulin or fortified with 1 and 3% (w/w) inulin. The pathway of casein breakdown was determined in probiotic, synbiotic, conventional yogurt, and nonstarted milk base using HPLC-ESI-MS/MS-based peptidomics and phosphopeptidomics; in the latter case, casein phosphorylated peptides (CPPs) were previously enriched by hydroxyapatite chromatography. Compared with traditional yogurt, casein proteolysis increased in probiotic and even more in synbiotic yogurt with 1% inulin. Fortification with 3% inulin greatly modified the proteolytic pattern, indicating a characteristic contribution of probiotics to proteolysis. The enhanced proteolysis in synbiotic yogurt exposed the neo-formed peptides to progressively increase enzymatic or chemical modifications, such as dephosphorylation of CPPs, methionine oxidation, and formation of N-terminal pyroglutamic acids. These modifications might constitute molecular signature descriptors of metabolic processes mediated by complex bacterial communities, with technological, nutritional, and sensorial significance.

Abstract
Multidimensional protein identification (MudPIT), developed in the Yates Laboratory 20 years ago, is regarded as a powerful tool for proteomics research. Due to its remarkable online separation advantages, MudPIT has been widely used to facilitate discoveries in the field of proteomics research. However, it has one major disadvantage: the process of eluting peptides during strong cation exchange introduces salts, of different concentrations, into the mass spectrometer. Considering the sensitivity of the new generation of high-resolution mass spectrometers, developing a new version of MudPIT that could eliminate the introduction of salts in the elute would be a significant advancement to current technology. Herein, we developed a new, clean version of MudPIT called parallel channels-multidimensional protein identification technology (PC-MudPIT) to overcome this issue. In this design, the original biphasic trapping column was replaced by two parallel analytical column channels. We successfully averted the salt contamination yet retained all the other advantages of MudPIT. A total of 8161 and 7359 protein groups were identified from A549 whole cell lysate using PC-MudPIT and classic MudPIT, respectively. Moreover, we discovered the additional advantage that, in online mode, PC-MudPIT can also be used for an enrichment process of phosphopeptide identification. We identified a total 11453 phosphopeptides using PC-MudPIT and 7729 phosphopeptides using offline TiO2 enrichment followed by classic MudPIT. These advances indicate the possibility of other innovative applications of PC-MudPIT technology in deep proteome exploration.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful and sensitive method often used for the identification of phosphoproteins. However, in phosphoproteomics, there is an identified need to compensate for the low abundance, insufficient ionization, and suppression effects of non-phosphorylated peptides. These may hamper the subsequent liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) analysis, resulting in incomplete phosphoproteome characterization, even when using high-resolution instruments. To overcome these drawbacks, we present here an effective microgradient chromatographic technique that yields specific fractions of enriched phosphopeptides compatible with LC–MS/MS analysis. The purpose of our study was to increase the number of identified phosphopeptides, and thus, the coverage of the sample phosphoproteome using the reproducible and straightforward fractionation method. This protocol includes a phosphopeptide enrichment step followed by the optimized microgradient fractionation of enriched phosphopeptides and final LC–MS/MS analysis of the obtained fractions. The simple fractionation system consists of a gas-tight microsyringe delivering the optimized gradient mobile phase to reversed-phase microcolumn. Our data indicate that combining the phosphopeptide enrichment with the microgradient separation is a promising technique for in-depth phosphoproteomic analysis due to moderate input material requirements and more than 3-fold enhanced protein identification.
