An aliquot of each sample was loaded onto an Acclaim PepMap trap column (2 cm × 75 µm) in line with an EASY-Spray analytical column (50 cm × 75 µm ID PepMap C18, 2-μm bead size) using the auto sampler of an EASY-nLC 1000 HPLC (Thermo Fisher Scientific) with solvent A consisting of 2% acetonitrile in 0.5% acetic acid and solvent B consisting of 80% acetonitrile in 0.5% acetic acid. The peptides were gradient eluted into an Orbitrap Elite mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific) using the following gradient: 5%–35% in 60 min, 35%–45% in 15 min, followed by 45%–100% in 5 min. The gradient was held at 100% for another 10 min. MS1 spectra were recorded with a resolution of 60,000, an AGC target of 1e6, with a maximum ion time of 200 msec, and a scan range from 400 to 1500 m/z. Following each full MS scan, 15 data-dependent MS/MS spectra were acquired. The MS/MS spectra were collected in the Ion Trap with an AGC target of 3e4, maximum ion time of 150 msec, one microscan, 2 m/z isolation window, dynamic exclusion of 30 sec, and normalized collision energy (NCE) of 35.

The samples were injected on to Easy nLC 1000 HPLC (Thermo Scientific) coupled to an Orbitrap Fusion mass spectrometer (Thermo Scientific). The Easy nLC was configured with Acclaim Pepmap100 C18 2 cm trap column followed by 25 cm analytical column (Thermo Scientific) and the samples ran on a 90 min gradient at 250 nl/min.

Normalized collison energy was 29, and charge state 1 and unassigned charge states were excluded. Acquired MS/MS spectra were searched against human Uniprot protein database or Mesothelin (Uniprot number Q13421 iso #1) using the SEQUEST algorithm in the Proteome Discoverer 2.2 (Thermo Scientific, CA). Enzyme was set to Trypsin (Semi), precursor ion tolerance was set at 10 ppm, and the fragment ions tolerance was set at 0.6 Da along with methionine oxidation included as dynamic modification. Peptide validation was done by either the Percolator or Target Decoy PSM Validator with FDR set at 0.1%.

Proteins were digested and purified on carboxylated beads according to the SP3 protocol (Hughes et al., 2019 (link)). Peptides were analyzed by liquid-chromatography using the EASY-nLC1000 HPLC coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometric analysis on the Q-Exactive HF mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Bremen, Germany). Peptides were separated on 50 cm EASY-spray columns (Thermo Fisher Scientific) with a single run of 140 min. MS acquisition was performed in a data-dependent mode with selection of the top 10 peptides from each MS spectrum for fragmentation and MS/MS analysis. Raw MS files were analyzed in the MaxQuant software and the Andromeda search engine (Cox et al., 2011 (link)). A database search was performed using the Uniprot database and included carbamidomethyl-cysteine as a fixed modification, as well as N-terminal acetylation and methionine oxidation as variable modifications. A reverse decoy database was used to determine false discovery rate of 1% at the peptide and protein levels. The label-free algorithm (LFQ) in MaxQuant was used to retrieve the quantitative information. Nuclear and cytosolic proteins were quantified separately.

Rif1 baits and co-purifying proteins were resolved by 4%–12% Bis-Tris gel and visualized by Coomassie blue staining. The gel was divided into upper and lower parts along the 39kDa molecular weight marker, with only the lower part fixed. The protein-containing upper and lower parts were cut into 5 and 1 regions respectively, and the gel samples were subjected to in-gel tryptic digestion. Peptides were extracted and purified, analyzed by LCMS using a Thermo Q Exactive Plus mass spectrometer, with a Thermo Easy-nLC 1000 HPLC and a Thermo Easy-Spray electrospray source. Identification and quantification of proteins was performed by searching against a mouse protein sequence database with the MaxQuant software (version 1.2.2.5) (Cox and Mann, 2008 (link)). Protein H/(H+L) ratios were derived using peptides’ H/L intensity values in MaxQuant output.

The phosphopeptides were analyzed using Q Exactive HF-X Hybrid Quadrupole-Orbitrap Mass Spectrometer (Thermo Fischer Scientific) coupled online to a nanoflow EASY-nLC1000 HPLC (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Briefly, the phosphopeptides were loaded onto an in house packed 50 cm C18 column with a 75 μM inner diameter (1.9 μM ReproSil particles, Dr. Maisch GmbH). The temperature of the column was maintained at 50°C by an in-house made column oven. The phosphopeptides were separated in a duration of 140-minute gradient with two mobile phase system buffer A (0.1% formic acid) and buffer B (60% ACN plus 0.1% formic acid) at a flow rate of 300 nl/min. The electro sprayed peptides were analyzed by the Q Exactive HF-X Hybrid Quadrupole-Orbitrap Mass Spectrometer (Thermo Fischer Scientific) in a data dependent mode, with one survey scan at a target of 3×106 ions (300–1650 m/z, R=60,000 at 200 m/z), followed by Top10 MS/MS scans with HCD (high energy collisional dissociation) based fragmentation (target 1×105 ions, maximum filling time 120ms, Isolation window 1.6 m/z, and normalized collision energy 27%), detected in the Orbitrap (R=15,000 at 200 m/z). Apex trigger 4 to 7s, charge exclusion (unassigned, 1, 5, −8 & >8), and dynamic exclusion 40s were enabled.

A Q Exactive mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA) was used for MS analysis in data‐dependent acquisition mode. Each MS1 spectrum was obtained at 70,000 high‐resolution (m/z 200) at 300–1600 m/z. The automatic gain control (AGC) target value was 3E6 for a maximum filling time of 60 ms. The top 20 most abundant precursor ions were selected with a 2.0‐m/z isolation window and fragmented with a normalized collision energy of 27. MS/MS spectra were acquired at 17,500 resolution (m/z 200) with a 50,000 target value over a maximum injection time of 80 ms by setting up an isolation window of 2.0 m/z and dynamic exclusion time of 40 s.

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.
