Role of Accurate Mass Measurement (±10 ppm) in Protein Identification Strategies Employing MS or MS/MS and Database Searching

Abstract: We describe the impact of advances in mass measurement accuracy, +/- 10 ppm (internally calibrated), on protein identification experiments. This capability was brought about by delayed extraction techniques used in conjunction with matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) on a reflectron time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometer. This work explores the advantage of using accurate mass measurement (and thus constraint on the possible elemental composition of components in a protein digest) in strategies… Show more

“…80% sequence identity, although they added that these cases would need to be supported by further evidence for validation. The high mass accuracy of modern TOF and FT-MS instruments increases confidence in cross-species peptide mass mapping and loosen the sequence identity requirement, as less peptide masses would be required to produce a confident hit [10].…”

“…Very often, mass spectrometric data from tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) experiments using peptides from protein digests are employed [2][3][4]. One of the aspects of mass spectrometry, which is often viewed as the key to successful protein identification, is mass measurement accuracy (MMA) [5][6][7]. Increased mass accuracy allows the number of potential masses in a database to be reduced, and sufficiently high MMA may make a peptide unique within the context of a specific proteome [7].…”

“…Mass tolerance was 0.1 Da for identifying the fragment ions. The ProSight program was used to identify the c/z and b/y ion pairs whereas the a-type ions were identified from the Protein Prospector database [47]. Figure 1 shows a tandem mass spectrum of a nonphosphorylated reference peptide.…”
