Protein separation/fractionation : a revival of old fashioned biochemistry

All “classical” methods can be used in all possible combinations : Liquid chromatography :

  • anion exchange
  • cation exchange
  • hydrophobic interaction
  • hydroxylapatite, heparin,…
  • batch methods : fractional precipitations
  • affinity : Immobilised Antibodies,

tagged molecules, drugs, peptides,

  • size exclusion

Isoelectric focusing & chromatofocusing Electrophoresis :

  • SDS-PAGE ( 1D & 2D )
  • native (Urea, Blue Native, Triton Acidic Urea)

Key points :

Choose methods based on orthogonal separation principles Choose methods compatible on the basis of sample composition

universal interface between sample preparation and MS (for protein ID or PTM studies)

  • Ideal interface to biology

  • Robust
  • Solid phase chemistry of proteins
  • Easy, low-tech
  • Removal of contaminants :

– At the loading point – After migration during fix / staining steps

Why is SDS-PAGE such a good preparation method? Why is SDS-PAGE such a good preparation method?

  • protein digestion in gel: non quantitative
  • peptide sequence recovery: usually incomplete
  • whole protein recovery: poor

Best matching sequence

  • Spot cutting and sample processing can be automated
  • SDS-PAGE and reversed-phase LC are the main final

interfaces between biology and Mass Spectrometry; these techniques can be used both to clean up and separate proteins before MS

  • Many compounds commonly used in protein purification

are incompatible with MS

  • Hence: every new experiment should be planned from

the beginning to optimise the preparation of the sample for MS

Modes of measurement

  • Ion production (ionisation)
  • Ion separation
  • Ion detection
  • Ion production (ionisation)
  • Ion separation – isolation of “parent” ion
  • Ion fragmentation
  • Ion detection - measure fragments of the “parent” ion

MS MS/MS

  • MALDI :

– Solid phase (crystal) – Mostly single charged ions (for tryptic peptides)

  • ESI :
  • liquid phase

MALDI-TOF

  • Great for Peptide Mass Fingerprinting

– Fast – Easy to measure – Sensitive – Salt-tolerant (to some extent) – Also good for larger MW (small proteins) – Sample on a stable support (no time constraints) – 1+ ions  simpler data analysis

  • High accuracy needs careful calibration
  • Difficult to do MS/MS by MALDI
  • Signal suppression in complex mixtures
