Abstract/OtherAbstract:
High mass measurement accuracy of peptides in enzymatic digests is critical for confident protein identification and characterization in proteomics research. Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS) can provide low or sub-ppm mass accuracy and ultrahigh resolving power. While for ESI-FT-ICR-MS, the mass accuracy is generally 1 ppm or better, with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI)-FT-ICR-MS, the mass errors can vary from sub-ppm with internal calibration to over 100 ppm with conventional external calibration. A novel calibration method for (15)N-metabolically labeled peptides from a batch digest of a proteome is described which corrects for space charge induced frequency shifts in FT-ICR spectra without using an internal calibrant. This strategy utilizes the information from the mass difference between the (14)N/(15)N peptide peak pairs to correct for space charge induced mass shifts after data collection. A procedure for performing the mass correction has been written into a computer program and has been successfully applied to high-performance liquid chromatography-MALDI-FT- ICR-MS measurement of (15)N-metabolic labeled proteomes. We have achieved an average measured mass error of 1.0 ppm and a standard deviation of 3.5 ppm for 900 peptides from 68 MALDI-FT-ICR mass spectra of the proteolytic digest of a proteome from Methanococcus maripaludis.
