An overview on enrichment methods for cell surface proteome profiling

Cell surface proteins are essential for many important biological processes, including cell–cell interactions, signal transduction, and molecular transportation. With the characteristics of low abundance, high hydrophobicity, and high heterogeneity, it is difficult to get a comprehensive view of cell surface proteome by direct analysis. Thus, it is important to selectively enrich the cell surface proteins before liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry analysis. In recent years, a variety of enrichment methods have been developed. Based on the separation mechanism, these methods could be mainly classified into three types. The first type is based on their difference in the physicochemical property, such as size, density, charge, and hydrophobicity. The second one is based on the bimolecular affinity interaction with lectin or antibody. And the third type is based on the chemical covalent coupling to free side groups of surface‐exposed proteins or carbohydrate chains, such as primary amines, carboxyl groups, glycan side chains. In addition, metabolic labeling and enzymatic reaction‐based methods have also been employed to selectively isolate cell surface proteins. In this review, we will provide a comprehensive overview of the enrichment methods for cell surface proteome profiling.     

MALDI‐MS profiling of serum O‐glycosylation and N‐glycosylation in COG5‐CDG

Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are due to defective glycosylation of glycoconjugates. Conserved oligomeric Golgi (COG)‐CDG are genetic diseases due to defects of the COG complex subunits 1–8 causing N‐glycan and O‐glycan processing abnormalities. In COG‐CDG, isoelectric focusing separation of undersialylated glycoforms of serum transferrin and apolipoprotein C‐III (apoC‐III) allows to detect N‐glycosylation and O‐glycosylation defects, respectively. COG5‐CDG (COG5 subunit deficiency) is a multisystem disease with dysmorphic features, intellectual disability of variable degree, seizures, acquired microcephaly, sensory defects and autistic behavior. We applied matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization‐MS for a high‐throughput screening of differential serum O‐glycoform and N‐ glycoform in five patients with COG5‐CDG. When compared with age‐matched controls, COG5‐CDG showed a significant increase of apoC‐III_0a (aglycosylated glycoform), whereas apoC‐III₁ (mono‐sialylated glycoform) decreased significantly. Serum N‐glycome of COG5‐CDG patients was characterized by the relative abundance of undersialylated and undergalactosylated biantennary and triantennary glycans as well as slight increase of high‐mannose structures and hybrid glycans. Using advanced and well‐established MS‐based approaches, the present findings reveal novel aspects on O‐glycan and N‐glycan profiling in COG5‐CDG patients, thus providing an increase of current knowledge on glycosylation defects caused by impairment of COG subunits, in support of clinical diagnosis.

Developing front‐end devices for improved sample preparation in MS‐based proteome analysis

Chemical analysis has long relied on instrumentation, from the simplest (eg, burets) to the more sophisticated (eg, mass spectrometers) to facilitate precision measurements. Regardless of their complexity, the development of a new instrumental device can be a valued approach to address problems in science. In this perspective, we outline the process of novel device design, from early phase conception to the manufacturing and testing of the tool or gadget. Focus is placed on the development of improved front‐end devices to facilitate protein sample manipulations ahead of mass spectrometry, which therefore augment the proteomics workflow. Highlighted are some of the many training secrets, choices, and challenges that are inherent to the often iterative process of device design. In hopes of inspiring others to pursue instrument design to address relevant research questions, we present a summary list of points to consider prior to innovating their own devices.     

Recent progress in the enzymatic glycosylation of phenolic compounds

Phenolic compounds are an important class of chemicals with various beneficial bioactivities. However, they are usually poorly soluble in water and unstable while some of them are toxic. Glycosylation can significantly improve the solubility, stability, and bioactivity of phenolic compounds. The enzymatic method for glycosylation can form a specific glycosidic bond in one step and under environment-friendly conditions. This review covers the progress made in the application of two classes of enzymes, namely, glycosyltransferases and glycosidases, for the glycosylation of phenolic compounds, and illustrates the impact of glycosylation on the properties of these compounds.     

Recent advances in computational analysis of mass spectrometry for proteomic profiling

The proteome, defined as an organism's proteins and their actions, is a highly complex end-effector of molecular and cellular events. Differing amounts of proteins in a sample can be indicators of an individual's health status; thus, it is valuable to identify key proteins that serve as 'biomarkers' for diseases. Since the proteome cannot be simply inferred from the genome due to pre- and posttranslational modifications, a direct approach toward mapping the proteome must be taken. The difficulty in evaluating a large number of individual proteins has been eased with the development of high-throughput methods based on mass spectrometry (MS) of peptide or protein mixtures, bypassing the time-consuming, laborious process of protein purification. However, proteomic profiling by MS requires extensive computational analysis. This article describes key issues and recent advances in computational analysis of mass spectra for biomarker identification.     

N‐ and O‐linked glycosylation site profiling of the human basic salivary proline‐rich protein 3M

In the present study, we show that the heterogeneous mixture of glycoforms of the basic salivary proline‐rich protein 3M, encoded by PRB3‐M locus, is a major component of the acidic soluble fraction of human whole saliva in the first years of life. Reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography with high‐resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry analysis of the intact proteoforms before and after N‐deglycosylation with Peptide‐N‐Glycosidase F and tandem mass spectrometry sequencing of peptides obtained after Endoproteinase GluC digestion allowed the structural characterization of the peptide backbone and identification of N‐ and O‐glycosylation sites. The heterogeneous mixture of the proteoforms derives from the combination of 8 different neutral and sialylated glycans O‐linked to Threonine 50, and 33 different glycans N‐linked to Asparagine residues at positions 66, 87, 108, 129, 150, 171, 192, and 213.

High‐resolution capillary zone electrophoresis for transferrin glycoform analysis associated with congenital disorders of glycosylation

High‐resolution capillary zone electrophoresis is used to assess the transferrin profile in serum of patients with eight different congenital disorders of glycosylation that represent type I, type II, and mixed type I/II disorders. Capillary zone electrophoresis data are compared to patterns obtained by gel isoelectric focusing. The high‐resolution capillary zone electrophoresis method is shown to represent an effective tool to assess the diversity of transferrin patterns. Hypoglycosylated disialo‐, monosialo‐, and asialo‐transferrin in type I cases can be distinguished from the corresponding underdesialylated transferrin glycoforms present in type II disorders. The latter can be separated from and detected ahead of their corresponding hypoglycosylated forms of type I patients. Both types of glycoforms are detected in sera of mixed type I/II patients. The assay has the potential to be used as screening method for congenital disorders of glycosylation. It can be run with a few microliters of serum when microvials are used.

Recent advances in the bioanalytical methods of polyethylene glycols and PEGylated pharmaceuticals

Polyethylene glycols are synthetic polymers composed of repeating oxyethylene subunits, which have been known for non‐toxic, non‐immunogenic, non‐antigenic, good solubility in water and therefore approved for pharmaceutical applications. Recently, attachment or amalgamation of polyethylene glycols to therapeutic small molecules, peptides, proteins, or nanoparticles has become a mature technology for the sake of improving their pharmacokinetic and pharmacological profiles, also referred to as PEGylation. By comparison, there are only a few PEGylated pharmaceuticals have been registered for further clinical trials and even less was approved for marketing. High failure rate of PEGylated pharmaceuticals in pre‐clinical and clinical trials could be majorly attributed to their unclear pharmacokinetic behaviors. Therefore, the in vivo fate of the PEGylated pharmaceuticals for the various routes of administration needs to be thoroughly investigated An accurate in vivo pharmacological study thereof highly depends on the precise detection of polyethylene glycols as well as their fragments in biological matrixes. The goal of this review is to highlight the analytical methods that were developed and applied to evaluate the polyethylene glycols in pharmaceutical ingredients and excipients, which bring us closer to bridging the gap between the development of polyethylene glycol‐based drug delivery systems and their clinical application.     

赤霉素类植物激素分析方法研究进展

赤霉素(gibberellins, GAs)作为植物体内广泛存在的一类激素,可刺激植物叶和芽的生长,对植物的生长起着至关重要的调控作用。截至目前,已发现的GAs高达136种之多。所有已知的GAs均为二萜酸,具有相似的化学结构,都含有赤霉素烷骨架,即4个环,仅环上双键、羟基数目和位置不同。但由于GAs缺乏特定光学特性(紫外和荧光)和化学特性,同时在植物体内含量极低(一般为ng/g,甚至为pg/g水平),常规的分析方法和检测技术难以实现对该类物质的定性定量分析。近年来相关研究人员一直致力于各种高效、快速、灵敏的GAs分析新方法和新技术的研究。本文就GAs的检测方法和分析技术进行综述,为更好地开展赤霉素类植物激素的研究提供参考。
