In proteomics, attention has focused on various immobilized enzyme reactors (IMERs) for the realization of high throughput digestion. In this report, a novel organic-inorganic hybrid monolith based IMER was prepared in a 100 μm i.d. capillary with 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GLYMO) as the monomer and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) as the crosslinker. Trypsin immobilization was achieved via the reaction between vicinal diol groups, which were obtained from hydrolysis of epoxy groups, and the amino groups of trypsin. Bovine serum albumin was digested thoroughly by this IMER in 47 s. After micro-reverse phase liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (μRPLC-MS/MS) analysis and database searching, beyond 35% sequence coverage was obtained, and the result was comparable to that of 12 h in solution digestion. The present IMER has potential for high throughput digestion. Shot gun proteomics is an important analytical approach. High efficiency enzymatic digestion is crucial for this approach. Traditionally, this digestion is performed in various buffer solutions [1,2], and effective digestion requires a long digestion time (4-24 h). Real protein mixtures are very complex compared to individual proteins, which means they required even longer digestion time and higher enzyme to substrate ratios. As proteomics develops, automatic and high throughput analysis is becoming popular. Therefore, new digestion methods are required to replace solution digestion. Enzyme immobilization [3] is a promising strategy for high throughput digestion. It allows the digestion time to be reduced to a few minutes or even seconds. For online digestion systems, manual handling is minimized because of direct connection between the immobilized enzyme reactors (IMERs) and other related subassemblies. In addition, the IMERs can be reused hundreds of times. To date, many IMERs [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] have been designed and applied successfully. Monolith based IMERs [8][9][10][11][12] prepared in capillaries have been particularly popular because of the monolithic relatively high binding capacity for enzymes, low backpressure, biological inertia, and mechanical stability.In our previous work, an organic-inorganic hybrid IMER [13] based on amino groups for enzyme immobilization was developed, and showed high digestion activity. Here, another organic-inorganic hybrid IMER with classical epoxy groups was prepared to achieve more direct trypsin immobilization. The digestion performance demonstrated that this IMER had superior digestion activity and stability to our SPECIAL TOPIC
