Results
Highly multiplexed targeted protein quantification requires significant steps of method
refinement prior to implementation. While the determination of proteins is relatively
straightforward based on biology, the selection of peptides as surrogate biomarkers
and corresponding
m/z
values (precursor and product ions) used to uniquely identify
and quantitate the peptide targets becomes challenging. Generally, retention times
and acquisition windows must be determined to maximize instrument cycle time to
achieve robust quantification. To expedite complex experimental method
development, we have created a unique spectral library procedure based on an
analytically rigorous discovery data acquisition scheme. The local spectral library
contains both LC and MS information that can be readily enlisted to build robust
methods requiring few refinement steps.
To first test our methods, a protein mix was spiked in equine plasma (containing
PTRC kit). Spectral library was first built on the neat protein mixture. Experiments
performed on the quadrupole Orbitrap mass spectrometer facilitate unique product
ion collection and detection schemes to not only increase data acquisition, but
perform state-model data acquisition, increasing the ability for quantification. Figure 3
shows the CV distribution for the peptides over four acquisitions (by summing the
area of top eight product ions).

K562 Cell Line
2,100 proteins were selected from the K562 cell line and imported into the new
algorithm. The algorithm utilizes the spectral library information to select unique
peptides and create precursor and product ion information used to perform real-time
qualitative and quantitative analysis. In total, 3,800 peptides were chosen and 20-fold
range digest was created.
Figure 4 shows an example where the ratio of 1:10 could not be calculated using the
full-scan MS1 (panel A), but could be calculated in tandem MS/MS scan (panel B,
and zoom-in, panel C).
