Label-Free Proteomics of Quantity-Limited Samples Using Ion Mobility-Assisted Data-Independent Acquisition Mass Spectrometry
2021
Over the past two decades, unbiased data-independent acquisition (DIA) approaches have gained increasing popularity in the bottom-up proteomics field. Here, we describe an ion mobility separation enhanced DIA workflow for large-scale label-free quantitative proteomics studies where starting material is limited. We set a special focus on the single pot solid-phase-enhanced sample preparation (SP3) protocol, which is well suited for the processing of quantity-limited samples.
Evaluation of FASP, SP3, and iST Protocols for Proteomic Sample Preparation in the Low Microgram Range
2017
Efficient and reproducible sample preparation is a prerequisite for any robust and sensitive quantitative bottom-up proteomics workflow. Here, we performed an independent comparison between single-pot solid-phase-enhanced sample preparation (SP3), filter-aided sample preparation (FASP), and a commercial kit based on the in-StageTip (iST) method. We assessed their performance for the processing of proteomic samples in the low μg range using varying amounts of HeLa cell lysate (1-20 μg of total protein). All three workflows showed similar performances for 20 μg of starting material. When handling sample sizes below 10 μg, the number of identified proteins and peptides as well as the quantitat…
Enhancing Sensitivity of Microflow-Based Bottom-Up Proteomics through Postcolumn Solvent Addition.
2019
The introduction of more sensitive mass spectrometers allows researchers to adapt front-end liquid chromatography (LC) to individual needs for the analysis of complex proteomes. Where absolute sensitivity is not paramount, it is advantageous to switch from a highly sensitive nanoflow-LC setup, the de facto standard platform in mass-spectrometry (MS)-based discovery proteomics, to a more robust, high-throughput-compatible microflow or conventional-flow setup. To enhance the microflow-LC-MS electrospray process of complex proteomic samples, we tested the effects of different solvents, including 2-propanol, methanol, and acetonitrile, pure or as mixture with dimethyl sulfoxide, which were adde…
Hybrid QconCAT-Based Targeted Absolute and Data-Independent Acquisition-Based Label-Free Quantification Enables In-Depth Proteomic Characterization o…
2021
Wheat amylase/trypsin inhibitors (ATIs) have gained significant relevance as inducers of intestinal and extra-intestinal inflammation. In this study, we present a novel hybrid data-independent acquisition (DIA) liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) approach, combining QconCAT technology with short microflow LC gradients and DIA and apply the method toward the quantitative proteome analysis of ATI extracts. The presented method is fast, robust, and reproducible and provides precise QconCAT-based absolute quantification of major ATI proteins while simultaneously quantifying the proteome by label-free quantification (LFQ). We analyzed extracts of 60 varieties of common wheat grown in…
