“De novo” peptide sequencing by MALDI-quadrupole-ion trap mass spectrometry: A preliminary study

Abstract: Collision-induced dissociation of singly charged peptide ions produced by resonant excitation in a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) ion trap mass spectrometer yields relatively low complexity MS/MS spectra that exhibit highly preferential fragmentation, typically occurring adjacent to aspartyl, glutamyl, and prolyl residues. Although these spectra have proven to be of considerable utility for database-driven protein identification, they have generally been considered to contain insufficient … Show more

“…MS/MS spectra generated by MALDI quadrupole TOF mass spectrometry of singly charged peptides also showed preferential fragmentation at the N-terminal bond of Pro and at the C-terminal bond of the acidic residues Asp and Glu [8]. The same observation was made during CID analysis of singly charged peptide ions using an in-house assembled MALDI-quadrupole ion trap [9]. Several of the peptides used in our study contained Pro and/or acidic residues and some had, due to missed cleavages, internal Lys or Arg (Table 1).…”

“…The samples were allowed to air-dry at room temperature and were then inserted into the mass spectrometer and subjected to MALDI-MS analysis. Prior to analysis, the mass spectrometer was externally calibrated with a mixture of Angiotensin I, Glu-fibrino-peptide B, ACTH (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17), and ACTH . For MS/MS experiments, the instrument was externally calibrated with fragments of Glu-fibrino-peptide.…”

“…These uninformative peaks would make identification difficult, and they are generally of lower abundance than sequence specific fragments. Therefore, spectra are frequently "filtered" so that only the most intense ions remain [18]. Depending on the application we have found a "top 4 filter" per 100 Th or a "top 6 filter" advantageous in separating signal (high intensity) from noise (low intensity).…”

“…After this the distribution of b-ions decreases until b 4 , where it stays about constant until it catches up to the number of y-ions at b 11 /y 11 . The doubly charged y-ion series starts at y 6 and continues relatively flat until y 18 . However, it is a minor number compared with either b-ions or y-ions.…”
