Samples containing 2.5 nmol protein were first alkylated and digested with LysC and trypsin for 4 hours, then they were analyzed using a Dionex UltiMate 3000 RSLCnano system (Sunnyvale, CA, USA) coupled with a Maxis II QTOF mass spectrometer (Bruker Daltonik GmbH, Bremen, Germany). Protein identification, quantitation was performed using the Byonic v3.8.18 (https://proteinmetrics.org) and MaxQuant v1.6.17 (https://maxquant.org) software respectively. Detailed methodology – including missing data imputation and differential expression statistics – is described in the methodological supplementary.

LC-MS Analysis of Crosslinking Mixtures

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
LC/MS analyses were performed using
an Agilent 1100 series LC coupled to a MicrOTOF-Q (Bruker Daltonics,
Bremen, Germany) or to a maXis II Q-TOF mass spectrometer (Bruker).
The mass spectrometer was operated in positive mode with a capillary
voltage of 4500 V. Acquisitions were performed on the mass range of
200–1850 m/z. Calibration
was performed using the singly charged ions produced by a solution
of Tune mix (G1969–85000, Agilent, U.S.A.). Data analysis was
performed by using Compass DataAnalysis 4.3 (Bruker Daltonics). A
cross-linking reaction mixture containing GSH and PDO 2 (or probe 9) was directly analyzed onto a HPLC connected
to MicrOTOF-Q. Compounds were separated on a XBridge Peptide BEH C18
column (300 Å, 3.5 μm, 2.1 mm × 250 mm) column. The
gradient was generated at a flow rate of 250 μL/min using 0.1%
trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in water for mobile phase A and ACN containing
0.08% TFA for mobile phase B at 60 °C. Phase B was increased
from 5 to 85% in 45 min.

Diglycine Modification Detection via ETD

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Minimally digested products were separated using a nanoAcquity LC system (Waters) equipped with home-packed PLRP-S column and multistep gradients over 60 min with solvents A and B aforementioned. The LC system was coupled online with a Bruker maXis II Q-TOF mass spectrometer. For MS/MS experiments, individual charge states of protein molecular ions were isolated then the ions were subjected to electron transfer dissociation (ETD).33 (link) The ranges for accumulation time, reagent time, and reaction time for ETD fragmentation were 2500–4000 ms, 5–20 ms and 1–10 ms, respectively. All spectra were processed with Compass DataAnalysis 4.3 software to generate mass lists which were supplied to MSAlign34 to identify possible sites of diglycine (GG) modification (data shown in Supporting Information). The spectra were also processed with the MASH suite software35 (link),36 (link) using a S/N threshold of 3 and a fit factor of 70%. All reported calculated (calc.) and experimental (expt.) values correspond to the monoisotopic molecular weight.

To acquire molecular formulae information, samples were analysed using an Ultra‐high‐resolution MaXis II Q‐TOF mass spectrometer equipped with electrospray source coupled with Dionex 3000RS UHPLC was employed (Bruker). A reverse phase C18 column (Agilent Zorbax, 100 x 2.1 mm, 1.8 μm) and a guard column (Agilent C18, 10 x 2.1 mm, 1.8 μm) were used for separation applying a linear gradient of 95:5 A/B to 0:100 A/B over 20 min (Mobile phase A: water with 0.1% formic acid, B: acetonitrile with 0.1% formic acid). The injected volume was 2 μl, and the flow rate was 0.2 ml min‐1. At the beginning of each run, 7.5 μl of 10 mM of sodium formate solution was injected for internal calibration. The mass spectrometer was operated in positive ion mode with a 50–2500 m/z scan range. MS/MS data were acquired for the three most intense peaks in each scan.

Characterizing SST Strains via HR-MS/MS

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
High resolution tandem mass spectrometry (HR-MS/MS) data for the four SST strains was generated using Agilent 1290 Infinity UHPLC coupled to a Bruker MAXIS II Q-ToF mass spectrometer. LC separations utilized a Phenomenex Kinetex XB-C18 (2.6 µM, 100 × 2.1 mm) column. MS and MS2
experiments were carried out in positive ionization modes using a MS and MS2 range of m/z 100-2000.
HR-MS/MS raw data files were converted from .baf to .mzXML using MSConvert and a molecular network was created using Global Natural Products Social (GNPS) Molecular Networking (Wang et al., 2016) . GNPS parameters for creating the molecular network were not changed from the standard parameters GNPS recommends except for the minimum peak intensity, which was set to 5% in order to remove any potential artifacts from interfering in the analysis.

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.
