MALDI-TOF Glycoconjugate Analysis Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For glycan analysis, 1 or 2 μL
of the glycoconjugate samples in their original buffer were spotted
onto a ground-steel MALDI target plate with 1 μL of either a
10 mg/mL “super-DHB” (a 9:1 (w/w) mixture of 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic
acid and 2-hydroxy-5-methoxybenzoic acid; purchased from Sigma-Aldrich,
Germany) solution in 50:50 (v/v) ACN/water and NaOH 1 mM or a 100
mg/mL super-DHB solution in 50:50 (v/v) ACN/water. The spots were
left to dry at room temperature. For the analysis of the protein backbone,
the glycoconjugate samples were desalted by C18-ZipTip SPE as described
above, by direct elution onto a polished-steel MALDI target plate
and the addition of 1 μL of a saturated solution of 1,5-diaminonaphtalene
(1,5-DAN) in water/ACN/formic acid (v/v, 50:49.95:0.05). The spots
were left to dry at room temperature.

Oxime Formation of Heterologous Enzymes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A refactored plasmid containing genes mpaA1, mpaB, and mpaC was heterologously expressed as described above. After desalting by SPE column, 1 mL (sample in aq. 70% acetonitrile/0.1% TFA) was added each to two scintillation vials (reaction vs. control). The pH of the eluent was adjusted to pH 4 using 0.1 M NaOH and checked by pH paper. To one vial, O-benzylhydroxylamine was added to 10 mM and scintillation vials were left overnight (~16 h) at room temperature to ensure maximal oxime formation. Reaction products were mixed 1:1 with 50 mg/mL Super-DHB (Sigma-Aldrich) in aq. 60% acetonitrile/0.1% formic acid and dried under ambient conditions on a polished steel MALDI target. Samples were analyzed using a Bruker UltrafleXtreme MALDI-TOF MS using manufacturer’s methods for reflector positive mode.

Arabidopsis roots were preserved in 100% ethanol. At 37°C overnight, 1 unit of xyloglucanase (Megazyme, Brae, Ireland) was treated with 50 mM sodium acetate buffer (pH 5.0) to remove ethanol and rehydrated to produce xylooligosaccharide. MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry of XyG oligosaccharides was recorded with an Applied Biosystems using super-DHB (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) as a matrix [62 (link), 63 (link)].

Once optimal growth of the bacteria was obtained, 100 μL of bacterial suspension were placed into 1.5 mL Eppendorf tubes and heat-killed at 95°C for 30 min before leaving the BSL3 containment area. The heat-killed Mtb and NTM pellets were washed four times with 200 μL of double-distilled water. Then, a 0.4 μL aliquot of the resuspended pellet was pipetted onto the MALDI matrix plate and mixed with 0.8 μL of the MALDI matrix. The matrix used consisted of a 9:1 mixture of 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid and 2-hydroxy-5-methoxybenzoic acid (super-DHB, Sigma-Aldrich) at a concentration of 10 mg/mL in chloroform:methanol 9:1. (Supplementary Material Fig. S1). All solvent manipulations and handling were carried out under a fume hood.

Rapid Xyloglucan Oligosaccharide Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Xyloglucan analysis was based on the rapid phenotyping method using enzymatic oligosaccharide fingerprinting previously described (Lerouxel et al., 2002 (link); Sechet et al., 2016 (link)). Mature rosette leaves were harvested and cleared in ethanol overnight at room temperature. After removal of ethanol and rehydration in water, xyloglucan oligosaccharides were generated by digesting the samples with endoglucanase in 10 mM sodium acetate buffer, pH 5, in a final volume of 20 µl, overnight at 37 °C. An aliquot of 0.5 µl of the supernatant was dried on a matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass (MALDI-TOF) target, followed by the addition of 0.5 µl of super-DHB (9:1 mixture of 2,5-dihydroxy-benzoic acid and 2-hydroxy-5-methoxy-benzoic acid, Sigma-Aldrich) matrix, and dried under a fume hood prior to spectra acquisition. The MALDI-TOF mass spectra of the xyloglucan oligosaccharides were acquired with a MALDI/TOF Bruker Reflex III.

Rapid MALDI-TOF Bacterial Identification

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A 10 μL inoculation loop of bacteria, grown on Mueller-Hinton agar for 18–24 h, was resuspended in 200 μL of water. Mild-acid hydrolysis was performed on 100 μL of this suspension, by adding 100 μl of acetic acid 2 % v/v and incubating the mixture at 98°C for 10 min. Hydrolyzed cells were centrifuged at 17,000 ×g for 2 min, the supernatant was discarded and the pellet was resuspended in ultrapure water to a density of McFarland 10. A volume of 0.4 μL of this suspension was loaded onto the MALDI target plate and immediately overlaid with 1.2 μL of a matrix consisting of a 9:1 mixture of 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid and 2-hydroxy-5-methoxybenzoic acid (super-DHB, Sigma-Aldrich) solubilized in chloroform/methanol 90:10 v/v to a final concentration of 10 mg/mL.
The bacterial suspension and matrix were mixed directly on the target by pipetting and the mix dried gently under a stream of air. MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry analyses were performed with a MALDI Biotyper Sirius (Bruker Daltonics) using the linear negative-ion mode.

Purification and Analysis of Recombinant Peptides

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplifications were carried out using an automated thermocycler (C1000, Bio-Rad). DNA sequencing was performed using appropriate primers by ACGT, Inc. MALDI-TOF MS analyses were conducted at the Mass Spectrometry Facility at UIUC using an UltrafleXtreme spectrometer (Bruker Daltonics). For MALDI–TOF MS analysis, samples were desalted using ZipTipC18 (Millipore), and spotted onto a MALDI target plate with a matrix solution usually consisting of a saturated aqueous solution of super DHB (2,5-dihydroxy benzoic acid; Sigma Aldrich). Peptides obtained from expression in E. coli were purified by preparative reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP–HPLC) on an Agilent 1260 Infinity II instrument equipped with a Phenomenex C5 column at a flow rate of 8 mL/min or with a Macherey Nagel C18 (MN_C18) column at a flow rate of 4 mL/min. For RP–HPLC, solvent A was 0.1% TFA in H2O, and solvent B was pure MeCN containing 0.1% TFA. An elution gradient from 0% solvent B to 100% solvent B over 30 min was used unless specified otherwise.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
