description | Proteomics is one of the most significant methodologies to better understand the molecular pathways involved in diseases and to improve their diagnosis, treatment and follow-up. The investigation of the proteome of complex organisms is challenging from an analytical point of view, because of the large number of proteins present in a wide range of concentrations. In this study, nanofluidic chromatography, using a micropillar array column, was coupled to drift-tube ion mobility and time-of-flight mass spectrometry to identify as many proteins as possible in a protein digest standard of HeLa cells. Several chromatographic parameters were optimized. The high interest of drift-tube ion mobility to increase the number of identifications and to separate isobaric coeluting peptides was demonstrated. Multiplexed drift-tube ion mobility spectrometry was also investigated, to increase the sensitivity in proteomics studies. This innovative proteomics platform will be useful for analyzing patient samples to better understand unresolved disorders. |
