Proteins in excised gel spots were digested with trypsin (Mass Spectrometry Grade, Promega, Madison, WI, USA) overnight at 37 °C. Peptides were extracted with 90% acetonitrile/2.5% trifluoroacetic acid and peptide masses were measured by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight/time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF/TOF) analysis (Ultraflex III MALDI-TOF/TOF, Bruker Daltonics, Billerica, MA, USA). The scanning UV wavelength was set at 355 nm and the mass scan range was 700 to 3200 Da.
MASCOT DAEMON (version 2.3.02, Matrix Science, London, UK) was used to extract the MS and MS/MS data via BioTools 3.0 software (Bruker Daltonics, Billerica, MA, USA). Database searches were performed in Mascot against the UniProt database (species: Microcystis aeruginosa, 79,051 sequences, 21,123,649 residues). The searches were performed with peptide mass tolerance of 50 ppm and fragment mass tolerance of 0.6 Da. One missing cleavage was allowed. Cysteine carbamidomethylation was set as a fixed modification, and methionine oxidation was set as a variable modification. Only significance thresholds defined by the Mascot probability analysis (p < 0.05) were accepted.

Spike Protein Denaturation and Enzymatic Digestion

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Three aliquots of each sample were
denatured for 1 h in 50 mM Tris/HCl (pH 8.0) containing 6 M urea and
5 mM dithiothreitol (DTT). Next, spike proteins were reduced and alkylated
by adding 20 mM iodoacetamide (IAA) and incubated for 1 h in the dark,
followed by a 1 h incubation with 20 mM DTT to eliminate residual
IAA. The alkylated spike proteins were buffer-exchanged into 50 mM
Tris/HCl (pH 8.0) using Vivaspin columns (3 kDa), and two of the aliquots
were digested separately overnight using trypsin, chymotrypsin (Mass
Spectrometry grade, Promega), or alpha-lytic protease (Sigma-Aldrich)
at a ratio of 1:30 (w/w). The next day, the peptides were dried and
extracted using C18 Zip-tip (MerckMilipore).

Proteomics Workflow: Protein Digestion

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For protein digestion, samples on magnetic beads were washed four times with 200 ul of 50mM ammonium bicarbonate (AMBIC) with a 20 min shake time at 4°C. 2.5 ug of trypsin gold (Mass spectrometry grade, V528A, Promega) was added to the beads and samples were digested overnight at 800 rpm shake speed at RT. After overnight digestion, the peptide extracts were reduced in volume by vacuum centrifugation and a small portion of the extract was used for fluorometric peptide quantification (Thermo scientific Pierce). Samples were analyzed for LC-MS/MS analysis by UC Davis Proteomics core. One microgram of sample based on the fluorometric peptide assay was loaded for each LC-MS/MS on a Thermo Scientific Q Exactive Plus Orbitrap Mass spectrometer in conjunction Proxeon Easy-nLC II HPLC (Thermo Scientific) and Proxeon nanospray source. Tandem mass spectra were extracted and charge state deconvoluted by Proteome Discoverer (Thermo Scientific). All MS/MS samples were analyzed using X! Tandem (The GPM, thegpm.org; version X! Tandem Alanine (2017.2.1.4)). Scaffold (version Scaffold_4.8.4, Proteome Software Inc., Portland, OR) was used to validate MS/MS based peptide and protein identifications.

Three batches of MTB‐CFPs samples were prepared. 20 µl (30 μg) of the fraction was mixed with 5 µl 100 mM DTT, incubated at 37℃ for 3 h. Then, 5 µl 450 mM IAA was added and incubated at 37℃ for 30 min in the dark before addition of 1 µl trypsin (V5280; Mass Spectrometry Grade, Promega, MI, USA). The reaction was quenched after incubation at 37℃ for 16 h by addition of 3.5 µl formic acid. The resulting peptides were vacuum dried and re‐suspended in 0.1% formic acid.

Protein Digestion and Reduction Protocol

Protein samples were diluted 25-fold
in 50 mM ammonium bicarbonate. To prevent disulfide bonds of the proteins,
the samples were incubated at 56 °C for 1 h with 5 mM dithiothreitol
(ThermoFisher). Then, the samples were incubated with 10 mM iodoacetamide
(MilliPore Sigma) for 1 h at room temperature in the dark in order
to carbamidomethylate cysteine residues. Samples were digested overnight
at 37 °C using Trypsin Gold (Mass Spectrometry grade, Promega).
After digestion, samples were spun down at 12000 rcf for 30 s to collect
condensate, and the digestion was stopped by addition of 0.5% (v/v)
trifluoroacetic acid. Samples were centrifuged at 12000 rcf for 10
min and then transferred to LC vials.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Before proteolytic digestion, trimers were denatured and alkylated by incubation for 1 hr at room temperature (RT) in a 50 mM Tris/HCl, pH 8.0 buffer containing 6 M urea and 5 mM dithiothreitol (DTT), followed by the addition of 20 mM iodacetamide (IAA) for a further 1 hr at RT in the dark, and then additional DTT (20 mM) for another 1h, to eliminate any residual IAA. The alkylated trimers were buffer-exchanged into 50 mM Tris/HCl, pH 8.0 using Vivaspin columns and digested with trypsin and elastase (Mass Spectrometry Grade, Promega) at a ratio of 1:30 (w/w). Glycopeptides were selected from the protease-digested samples using the ProteoExtract Glycopeptide Enrichment Kit (Merck Millipore). Enriched glycopeptides were analyzed by LC-ESI MS on an Orbitrap fusion mass spectrometer (ThermoFisher Scientific), as previously described (Behrens et al., 2016 (link)), using higher energy collisional dissociation (HCD) fragmentation. Data analysis and glycopeptide identification were performed using Byonic™ (Version 2.7) and Byologic™ software (Version 2.3; Protein Metrics Inc.), as previously described (Behrens et al., 2016 (link)).

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.
