A data-independent acquisition-based global phosphoproteomics system enables deep profiling

Phosphoproteomics can provide insights into cellular signaling dynamics. To achieve deep and robust quantitative phosphoproteomics profiling for minute amounts of sample, we here develop a global phosphoproteomics strategy based on data-independent acquisition (DIA) mass spectrometry and hybrid spectral libraries derived from data-dependent acquisition (DDA) and DIA data. Benchmarking the method using 166 synthetic phosphopeptides shows high sensitivity (<0.1 ng), accurate site localization and reproducible quantification (~5% median coefficient of variation). As a proof-of-concept, we use lung cancer cell lines and patient-derived tissue to construct a hybrid phosphoproteome spectral library covering 159,524 phosphopeptides (88,107 phosphosites). Based on this library, our single-shot streamlined DIA workflow quantifies 36,350 phosphosites (19,755 class 1) in cell line samples within two hours. Application to drug-resistant cells and patient-derived lung cancer tissues delineates site-specific phosphorylation events associated with resistance and tumor progression, showing that our workflow enables the characterization of phosphorylation signaling with deep coverage, high sensitivity and low between-run missing values.

MS2Planner: improved fragmentation spectra coverage in untargeted mass spectrometry by iterative optimized data acquisition

Motivation: Untargeted mass spectrometry experiments enable the profiling of metabolites in complex biological samples. The collected fragmentation spectra are the metabolite’s fingerprints that are used for molecule identification and discovery. Two main mass spectrometry strategies exist for the collection of fragmentation spectra: data-dependent acquisition (DDA) and data-independent acquisition (DIA). In the DIA strategy, all the metabolites ions in predefined mass-to-charge ratio ranges are co-isolated and co-fragmented, resulting in multiplexed fragmentation spectra that are challenging to annotate. In contrast, in the DDA strategy, fragmentation spectra are dynamically and specifically collected for the most abundant ions observed, causing redundancy and sub-optimal fragmentation spectra collection. Yet, DDA results in less multiplexed fragmentation spectra that can be readily annotated. Results: We introduce the MS2Planner workflow, an Iterative Optimized Data Acquisition strategy that optimizes the number of high-quality fragmentation spectra over multiple experimental acquisitions using topological sorting. Our results showed that MS2Planner increases the annotation rate by 38.6% and is 62.5% more sensitive and 9.4% more specific compared to DDA. Availability and implementation MS2Planner code is available at https://github.com/mohimanilab/MS2Planner. The generation of the inclusion list from MS2Planner was performed with python scripts available at https://github.com/lfnothias/IODA_MS.

Mono-mix strategy enables comparative proteomics of a cross-kingdom microbial symbiosis

Cross-kingdom microbial symbioses, such as those between algae and bacteria, are key players in biogeochemical cycles. The molecular changes during initiation and establishment of symbiosis are of great interest, but quantitatively monitoring such changes can be challenging, particularly when the microorganisms differ greatly in size or are intimately associated. Here, we analyze output from label-free, data-dependent acquisition (DDA) LC-MS/MS proteomics experiments investigating the well-studied interaction between the alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and the heterotrophic bacterium Mesorhizobium japonicum. We found that detection of bacterial proteins decreased in coculture by 50% proteome-wide due to the abundance of algal proteins. As a result, standard differential expression analysis led to numerous false-positive reports of significantly downregulated proteins, where it was not possible to distinguish meaningful biological responses to symbiosis from artifacts of the reduced protein detection in coculture relative to monoculture. We show that data normalization alone does not eliminate the impact of altered detection on differential expression analysis of the cross-kingdom symbiosis. We assessed two additional strategies to overcome this methodological artifact inherent to DDA proteomics. In the first, we combined algal and bacterial monocultures at a relative abundance that mimicked the coculture, creating a “mono-mix” control to which the coculture could be compared. This approach enabled comparable detection of bacterial proteins in the coculture and the monoculture control. In the second strategy, we enhanced detection of lowly abundant bacterial proteins by using sample fractionation upstream of LC-MS/MS analysis. When these simple approaches were combined, they allowed for meaningful comparisons of nearly 10,000 algal proteins and over 4,000 bacterial proteins in response to symbiosis by DDA. They successfully recovered expected changes in the bacterial proteome in response to algal coculture, including upregulation of sugar-binding proteins and transporters. They also revealed novel proteomic responses to coculture that guide hypotheses about algal-bacterial interactions.

Exploring Ion Mobility Mass Spectrometry Data File Conversions to Leverage Existing Tools and Enable New Workflows

Ion mobility (IM) is often combined with LC-MS experiments to provide an additional dimension of separation for complex sample analysis. While highly complex samples are better characterized by the full dimensionality of LC-IM-MS experiments to uncover new information, downstream data analysis workflows are often not equipped to properly mine the additional IM dimension. For many samples the data acquisition benefits of including IM separations are all that is necessary to uncover sample information and the full dimensionality of the data is not required for data analysis. Post-acquisition reduction and adaptation of the dimensions of LC-IM-MS and IM-MS experiments into an LC-MS format opens the possibility to use a plethora of existing software tools. In this work, we developed data file conversion tools to reduce the complexity of IM data analysis. Three data file transformations are introduced in the PNNL PreProcessor software: 1) mapping the IM axis to the LC axis for IM-MS data, 2) converting the drift time vs. m/z space to CCS/z vs m/z space, and 3) transforming All Ions IM/MS mobility aligned fragmentation data to a standard LC-MS DDA data file format. Finally, these new data file conversions are demonstrated with corresponding lipidomics and proteomics workflows that leverage existing LC-MS data analysis software to highlight the benefits of the data transformations.

MassIVE MSV000095714

Proteomic analysis reveals translation-related proteins are significantly altered in response to stabilized G4s. Identification of the importance of translation factors in overcoming G4s led to the question of how E. coli cells generally respond to chemicals that stabilize such structures. As a first step in addressing this question, a proteomic analysis was carried out to measure the quantitative effects of NMM on the levels of individual proteins in E. coli. Protein levels from early log-phase cultures of delta-tolC and delta-tolC tufA::kan strains grown in the presence or absence of NMM were measured to assess how reduced EF- Tu levels and NMM impacted expression.
