We performed RNA-seq and high-resolution mass spectrometry on 128 blood samples from COVID-19-positive COVID-19-negative patients with diverse disease severities outcomes. Quantified transcripts, proteins, metabolites, lipids were associated clinical outcomes in a curated relational database, uniquely enabling systems analysis cross-ome correlations to molecules patient prognoses. mapped 219 molecular features high significance COVID-19 status severity, many of which involved complement...
Liquid chromatography (LC) prefractionation is often implemented to increase proteomic coverage; however, while effective, this approach laborious, requires considerable sample amount, and can be cumbersome. We describe how interfacing a recently described high-field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS) device between nanoelectrospray ionization (nanoESI) emitter an Orbitrap hybrid mass spectrometer (MS) enables the collection of single-shot data with comparable depth that...
Abstract An average shotgun proteomics experiment detects approximately 10,000 human proteins from a single sample. However, individual are typically identified by peptide sequences representing small fraction of their total amino acids. Hence, an fails to distinguish different protein variants and isoforms. Deeper proteome sequencing is therefore required for the global discovery Using six cell lines, proteases, deep fractionation three tandem mass spectrometry fragmentation methods, we...

Abstract Degradation and recycling of plasma membrane proteins occurs via the endolysosomal system, wherein endosomes bud into cytosol from subsequently mature degradative lysosomal compartments. While methods have been developed for rapid selective capture lysosomes (Lyso-IP), analogous isolation early endosome intermediates are lacking. Here, we develop an approach early/sorting through affinity endosome-associated protein EEA1 (Endo-IP) provide proteomic lipidomic snapshots EEA1-positive...

Over 17,000 transcripts, proteins, metabolites, lipids were quantified associated clinical outcomes in a curated relational database, uniquely enabling systems analysis cross-ome correlations to molecules patient prognoses. mapped 219 molecular features high significance status severity, many involved complement activation, dysregulated...
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are important therapeutic glycoproteins, but their large size and structural complexity make them difficult to rapidly characterize. Top-down mass spectrometry (MS) has the potential overcome challenges of other common approaches by minimizing sample preparation preserving endogenous modifications. However, comprehensive mAb characterization requires generation many, well-resolved fragments remains challenging. While ETD retains modifications cleaves disulfide...
Modified oligonucleotides represent a promising avenue for drug development, with small interfering RNAs (siRNA) and microRNAs gaining traction in the therapeutic market. Mass spectrometry (MS)-based analysis offers many benefits characterizing modified nucleic acids. Negative electron transfer dissociation (NETD) has proven valuable sequencing oligonucleotide anions, particularly because it can retain modifications while generating sequence-informative fragments. We show that NETD be...
Mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics is a powerful technology to globally profile protein abundances, activities, interactions, and modifications.

Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is a typical strategy for lipidomics analysis. Although capillary LC-MS common analytical technique proteomics analysis, its application to has been limited. In this study, we aim at improving lipid identifications achieved in single analysis by 3-fold approach: LC and nanoelectrospray enhanced ionization, ion trap higher sensitivity tandem MS, parallelization of mass analyzers increased speed acquisition on an Orbitrap hybrid system.

While much effort has been placed on comprehensive quantitative proteome analysis, certain applications demand the measurement of only a few target proteins from complex systems. Traditional approaches to targeted proteomics rely nanoliquid chromatography (nLC) and mass spectrometry (MS) methods, e.g., parallel reaction monitoring (PRM). However, time requirement for nLC can limit throughput proteomics. To achieve rapid high-throughput here we show that separations be eliminated replaced...
In mass spectrometry-based lipidomics, complex lipid mixtures undergo chromatographic separation, are ionized, and detected using tandem MS (MSn) to simultaneously quantify structurally characterize eluting species. The reported structural granularity of these identified lipids is strongly reliant on the analytical techniques leveraged in a study. For example, identifications from traditional collisionally activated data-dependent acquisition experiments often at either species level or...
