For this purpose, electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) experiments were conducted into an ion trap instrument using an unconventional 8 <i>m</i>/<i>z</i> broadband isolation window, which encompassed both the tryptic peptide and its internal standard. Interference removal was assessed by determining an excitation voltage that was high enough to maintain a constant value for the analyte/internal standard peaks intensity ratio, thus ensuring accurate quantification even in the presence of isobaric contamination. Pseudo-multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) was employed above this excitation voltage to quantify the trypic peptide. The internal standard calibration model showed no lack of fit and exhibited a linear dynamic range from 0.5 μM up to 2.5 μM. The detection limit was 0.08 μM. The accuracy of the method was evaluated by quantifying the tryptic peptide of three reference samples intentionally contaminated with the isobaric interference. All the reference samples were accurately quantified with ∼1% deviation despite the isobaric contamination. Furthermore, we have demonstrated that this methodology can also be applied to quantify the isobaric peptide by standard additions down to 0.2 μM.

Several studies have found that chromones, flavones, and saponins were the major bioactive compounds of YPFG. However, few studies have reported accurate quantification methods of these compounds. This study aimed to establish a simple and rapid method by using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) to determine 15 bioactive compounds in YPFG. The experimental parameters including extraction methods, extraction solvents, extraction time, solid–liquid ratio, and LC–MS/MS condition were optimized. The linearity, precision, repeatability, stability, and recovery of the established method were evaluated. The contents of 15 bioactive compounds in seven batches of YPFG samples were analyzed by the established method and the results were compared with the values determined by HPLC. The optimal extraction condition was to extract 0.1 g of YPFG by ultrasound with 50 mL 50% ethanol for 30 min. A Waters ACQUITY UPLCBEH C18 column using the 0.1% formic acid water solution and acetonitrile as mobile phase with a gradient elution was applied to the chromatographic separation. The linearity, precision, repeatability, stability, and recovery of the method were within acceptable ranges. Compared with HPLC analysis methods in Chinese Pharmacopoeia and literature, the established method was faster, simpler, more accurate, and more reliable.

In TIMS, gas-phase ions are guided across the IM stages by applying direct current (DC) potentials (D1–6), which, however, might induce changes in protein structures through collisional activation. To define conditions for native protein analysis, we evaluated the influence of these DC potentials using the metalloenzyme bovine carbonic anhydrase (BCA) as primary test compound. The variation of DC potentials did not change BCA-ion charge and heme content but affected (relative) charge-state intensities and adduct retention. Constructed extracted-ion mobilograms and corresponding collisional cross-section (CCS) profiles gave useful insights in (alterations of) protein conformational state. For BCA, the D3 and D6 potential (which are applied between the deflection transfer and funnel 1 [F1] and the accumulation exit and the start of the ramp, respectively) had most profound effects, showing multimodal CCS distributions at higher potentials indicating gradual unfolding. The other DC potentials only marginally altered the CCS profiles of BCA. To allow for more general conclusions, five additional proteins of diverse molecular weight and conformational stability were analyzed, and for the main protein charge states, CCS profiles were constructed. Principal component analysis (PCA) of the obtained data showed that D1 and D3 exhibit the highest degree of correlation with the ratio of folded and unfolded protein (F/U) as extracted from the mobilograms obtained per set D potential. The correlation of D6 with F/U and protein charge were similar, and D2, D4, and D5 showed an inverse correlation with F/U but were correlated with protein charge. Although DC boundary values for induced conformational changes appeared protein dependent, a set of DC values could be determined, which assured native analysis of most proteins.</p>","PeriodicalId":16178,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mass Spectrometry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/jms.5021","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140546674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
