LC-(Q) TOF/MS analysis was performed on an UltiMate 3000 system (Dionex, Sunnyvale, CA, USA) comprising a pump, a UV detector (208 nm), and an autosampler cooled to 4 °C with an Inertsil ODS-3v column [5 µm, 4.6 × 250 mm (GL Science Inc., Tokyo, Japan)]. The two samples (each 50 µL) were directly injected into the HPLC column. The separation of tomatines was eluted with 20 mM ammonium acetate/acetonitrile (65:35, v/v) at a flow rate of 700 μL/min at 30 °C, and a MicroQ-TOF III mass spectrometer with an electrospray interface (ESI) source (Bruker Daltonics, Bremen, Germany). The interface voltage and current were 4.50 kV and 1.6 μA for the negative-ion mode. The flow rate of nebulizing gas was 1.5 L/min, and the N2 drying pressure was 0.2 M Pa. The curved desorption line and heat block temperature were both at 200 °C. The detector voltage of the TOF analyzer was 1.68 kV. Ultrahigh-purity argon was used as the collision gas for collision-induced dissociation experiments. The relative energy in collisions was 100%. The sample injection volume was 50 μL. A direct valve was set to transmit and divert the HPLC eluent to waste. Mass spectral data were collected from m/z 160–1100. Data acquisition and processing were carried out with micrOTOFcontrol and dataAnalysis 4.0 (Bruker Daltonics, Bremen, Germany) software.

MS/MS of peptides generated by in-gel digestion was performed by nano-ESI on a MicroQ-TOF III mass spectrometer (Bruker Daltonics, Germany) at RT. A potential of 1 kV was applied to the precoated borosilicate nanoelectrospray needles (EconoTipTM, New Objective) in the ion source and combined with a nitrogen back-pressure of 0–5 psi to produce a stable flow rate (10–30 nL/min). The cone voltage was 800 V. The quadrupole analyzer was used to select precursor ions for fragmentation in the hexapole collision cell. Product ions were analyzed using an orthogonal TOF analyzer, fitted with a reflector, a micro-channel plate detector, and a time-to-digital converter. The data were processed using a peptide sequence system.

To identify the acetylation site of COX2, N-AS (Sigma-Aldrich, 01912)-treated COX2 enzymes (LSBio, LS-G21094) were immediately precipitated with trichroloacetic acid (Merck) and dried. The dried extract was resuspended in 10 μl of 5 M Urea solution and incubated with 1 μg sequencing-grade modified porcine trypsin (Promega) in 0.1 M ammonium bicarbonate buffer at 37 °C for 16 h. The sample was then treated with 1 M DTT (GE Healthcare) at RT for 1 h, followed by alkylation with 1 M iodoacetamide (Sigma-Aldrich) for 1 h. For sequencing, the protein samples were loaded onto a ZORBAX 300SB-C18 column (3.5 μm, 1.0 mm i.d. × 150 mm, Agilent). The column was placed in-line with an UltiMate 3000 system (Dionex, USA) and a splitter system was used to achieve a flow rate of 100 μl min−1. Analytes were eluted with a mobile phase consisting of water: formic acid (100:0.2 v/v) (phase A) and acetonitrile: formic acid (100:0.2 v/v) (phase B) in gradient elution mode for 77 min. Eluted peptides were directly electrosprayed into and MicroQ-TOF III mass spectrometer (Bruker Daltonics, 255748, Germany) by applying 4.5 kV of capillary voltage and a normalized collision energy of 7 eV. The peptides were verified with BioTools 3.2 SR5 (Bruker Daltonics).

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.
