Characterization of Phosphorylated Peptides by Electron-Activated and Ultraviolet Dissociation Mass Spectrometry: A Comparative Study with Collision-Induced Dissociation.
Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry 2024 April 17
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.
