磷酸化肽富集新方法研究进展

对组成复杂的生物样品中的低丰度磷酸化肽进行预富集,能够消除高丰度非磷酸化肽等干扰组分,从而提高磷酸化肽在质谱分析中的灵敏度,获得更好的检出和鉴定结果.在磷酸化肽富集过程中,对磷酸化肽具有选择性亲和作用的富集材料是实现对磷酸化肽特异高效富集的关键,多种具有不同类型亲和作用的富集材料已在磷酸化肽富集研究中得到了应用;而在材料形貌、富集操作形式、磷酸化肽富集特异性等方面,研究者们也不断在现有磷酸化肽富集材料的基础上进行多样化的改进.本文分别从不同类型亲和作用的磷酸化肽富集材料以及磷酸化肽富集方法改进两方面,对近年来磷酸化肽富集方法的研究进展进行了评述.

Research Progresses in Phosphopeptide Enrichment

Phosphopeptide enrichment is of great significance in phosphoproteomics related research. Pre-analysis enrichment helps concentrating phosphopeptides of low abundance, and other interferences of high abundance, such as non-phosphorylated peptides, will be eliminated at the same time. By this way, the enhanced sensitivity of mass-spectrometry analysis of phosphopeptides can be achieved, as well as better detection and identification performance. The key for phosphopeptide enrichment is enrichment materials with specific affinity towards phosphopeptides. Enrichment materials with different phosphopeptide adsorption mechanisms have been developed, while various improvements on material morphologies, enrichment operation, and enrichment specificity are also reported. In the review, we summarized recent progresses in phosphopeptide enrichment from perspectives of both enrichment materials with different enrichment mechanisms, and improvement on methodologies of phosphopeptide enrichment based on various enrichment materials.
