Abstract

We have developed a method for protein identification with peptide mass fingerprinting and sequence tagging using nano liquid chromatography (LC)/Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS). To achieve greater sensitivity, a nanoelectrospray (nano-ES) needle packed with reversed-phase medium was used and connected to the nano-ES ion source of the FTICR mass spectrometer. To obtain peptide sequence tag information, infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) was carried out in nano-LC/FTICR-MS analysis. The analysis involves alternating nano-ES/FTICR-MS and nano-ES/IRMPD-FTICR-MS scans during a single LC run, which provides sets of parent and fragment ion masses of the proteolytic digest. The utility of this alternating-scan nano-LC/IRMPD-FTICR-MS approach was evaluated by using bovine serum albumin as a standard protein. We applied this approach to the protein identification of rat liver diacetyl-reducing enzyme. It was demonstrated that this enzyme was correctly identified as 3-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase by the alternating-scan nano-LC/IRMPD-FTICR-MS approach with accurate peptide mass fingerprinting and peptide sequence tagging.
