主要研究背景及目的

方法

In this study, b and y ion fragmentation patterns and residue-specific cleavage effects in HCD mode were statistically characterized on a LTQ Orbitrap Velos mass spectrometer. We compared HCD and CID spectra collected in an Orbitrap for the same doubly and triply charged tryptic peptides.

结论

These results will assist with the development of database search engines and the design of proper transitions for targeted proteomic analysis.

主要结果

Our analytical results revealed novel statistical features of HCD spectra. The intensity of y ions reached a maximum in the 60–70% and 40–50% relative mass bins of HCD spectra from doubly and triply charged peptides, respectively. The HCD mode showed a slight preference for generating y ions with lower charges than did CID mode. Singly charged fragment ions dominated the five fragment ions with the highest intensity in HCD spectra. Hydrophobic residues for b ions were the primary differences in cleavage selectivity between the two modes, while residues for y ions showed a similar cleavage preference.
