The protein samples were in-gel digested with 10 ng/μl Glu-C. Then, the peptide samples were resuspended in loading buffer (0.03% trifluoroacetic acid, 0.1% formic acid, and 1% acetonitrile), then loaded onto a 20-cm nano-HPLC column and finally generated by a Dionex RSLCnano UPLC system (Thermo, USA). Peptides were ionized with 2.0 kV electrospray ionization voltage from a nano-ESI source on an Orbitrap Fusion mass spectrometer (Thermo, USA) [28 (link)].
