Bovine carbonic anhydrase,
equine myoglobin, and
bovine ubiquitin were purchased as solids from
Sigma-Aldrich. Streptavidin was purchased as a solid from Pierce.
The trastuzumab heavy chain T12 peptides containing position 4 aspartic
acid isomers were purchased from Biomatik. For denaturing analysis,
carbonic anhydrase and ubiquitin were reconstituted to final concentrations
of 10 and 1 μM, respectively, in 50:50 water/acetonitrile with
0.1% formic acid. The trastuzumab peptides were mixed in a 1:1 ratio
at a total peptide concentration of 1 μM in 0.1% formic acid
in water. For native MS analysis, carbonic anhydrase, myoglobin, and
streptavidin were reconstituted to final concentrations of 5 μM
in 200 mM ammonium acetate. Carbonic anhydrase and streptavidin were
subsequently buffer-exchanged against 200 mM ammonium acetate using
Bio-Rad MicroBioSpin 6 gel filtration spin columns for further sample
cleanup.
