mapping was performed by first diluting 50 μg of antibody intermediate
to 10 mg/mL. Samples were denatured and reduced at 37 °C for
30 min in 20 μL of 6.3 M urea, 1 M guanadine HCl, 100 mM Tris
pH 8.0, and 5 mM dithiothreitol (DTT, Thermo Scientific) mixture.
Then, samples were alkylated with 15 mM iodoacetamide (IAM, Thermo
Scientific) for 30 min in the dark at room temperature. Subsequently,
the reaction was diluted with 3 volumes of 100 mM Tris pH 7.5 to allow
for trypsin digestion. Trypsin (V5280, Promega) was added at 1:12.5
protease: protein ratio and incubated at 37 °C for 3–4
h. The reaction was quenched by adding 5 μL of 10% TFA (T6508,
Sigma-Aldrich). The digests were analyzed by LC-MS using a Waters
ACQUITY UPLC system equipped with a Waters ACQUITY BEH C18 column
(1.7 mm, 2.1 × 150 mm), mobile phase A (0.02% TFA in HPLC water),
mobile phase B (0.02% TFA in acetonitrile) over a 90 min gradient,
and a Synapt G2 mass spectrometer (Waters).
