Simultaneous Identification and Relative Quantitation of PTMs in Oxidatively
Stressed IgG Samples
Differential oxidative stress was induced by hydrogen peroxide at 15, 30, 60, 90, 120
mins. After simple trypsin digestion, samples were analyzed by LC-MS/MS. PTMs
such as oxidation, deamidation, and glycation at different amino acid sites are
identified with high confidence levels as shown in the summary (Table 3) from
software.

The relative abundance of each modification in different samples under same LC-MS
condition is calculated. The oxidative study of IgG shows that oxidation of methionine
(M) 49, 304 and 393 in the heavy chain is dose-dependent as the oxidation reaction
time increases from 30 to 120 min, while unquenched sample demonstrated
significantly higher percentage of oxidation. M49 oxidation was identified by isotopic
mass and confirmed by MS/MS spectrum in PepFinder software. The experimental
MS/MS spectrum was annotated automatically in the software. The well matched
predicted (top panel) and experimental (bottom panel) spectra are shown in Figure 4,
demonstrating the high confident identification and confirmation of peptide with
oxidation modification.

Sequence Characterization of IgG mAb
When the same IgG is further reduced and alkylated, sequence coverage of both IgG
light chain (Figure 3) and heavy chain are 100% and 97.1%, respectively. On the
sequence coverage map (Figures 2 and 3), most peptide sequences are mapped
multiple times indicating by different color bars below the sequence, which greatly
increases the identification confidence. The color bar represents signal intensity of
the identified peptide. The number within the bar is the retention time of eluting
peptide.
This data is comparable to the result generated by an overnight digestion protocol in
which IgG was denatured by guanidine, reduced by DTT and alkylated by IAA,
followed by trypsin digestion overnight (data not shown). The sample preparation
efficiency is significantly improved with Flash Digest kit.
