A streamlined tandem tip-based workflow for sensitive nanoscale phosphoproteomics

Effective phosphoproteome of nanoscale sample analysis remains a daunting task, primarily due to significant sample loss associated with non-specific surface adsorption during enrichment of low stoichiometric phosphopeptide. We develop a tandem tip phosphoproteomics sample preparation method that is capable of sample cleanup and enrichment without additional sample transfer, and its integration with our recently developed SOP (Surfactant-assisted One-Pot sample preparation) and iBASIL (improved Boosting to Amplify Signal with Isobaric Labeling) approaches provides a streamlined workflow enabling sensitive, high-throughput nanoscale phosphoproteome measurements. This approach significantly reduces both sample loss and processing time, allowing the identification of >3000 (>9500) phosphopeptides from 1 (10) µg of cell lysate using the label-free method without a spectral library. It also enables precise quantification of ~600 phosphopeptides from 100 sorted cells (single-cell level input for the enriched phosphopeptides) and ~700 phosphopeptides from human spleen tissue voxels with a spatial resolution of 200 µm (equivalent to ~100 cells) in a high-throughput manner. The new workflow opens avenues for phosphoproteome profiling of mass-limited samples at the low nanogram level.

A Tip-based Workflow for Sensitive IMAC-based Low Nanogram Level Phosphoproteomics

Analyzing the phosphoproteome at nanoscale poses a significant challenge, mainly due to the substantial sample loss from non-specific surface adsorption during the enrichment of low stoichiometric phosphopeptides. Here, we describe a tandem tip-based phosphoproteomics sample preparation method capable of sequential sample cleanup and enrichment without the need for additional sample transfer, thereby minimizing sample loss. Integration of this method to our recently developed SOP (Surfactant-assisted One-Pot sample preparation) and iBASIL (improved Boosting to Amplify Signal with Isobaric Labeling) approaches creates a streamlined workflow, enabling sensitive, high-throughput nanoscale phosphoproteomics measurements.

Robust surfactant-assisted one-pot sample preparation for label-free single-cell and nanoscale proteomics

With advanced mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics, genome-scale proteome coverage can be achieved from bulk cells. However, such bulk measurement obscures cell to cell heterogeneity, precluding proteome profiling of single cells and small numbers of cells of interest. To address this issue, in recent 5 years there are a surge of small sample preparation methods developed for robust effective collection and processing of single cells and small numbers of cells for in-depth MS-based proteome profiling. Based on their broad accessibility, they can be categorized into two types: specific device- and standard PCR tube- or multi-well plate-based methods. Herein we describe the detailed protocol of our recently developed, easily adoptable, Surfactant-assisted One-Pot (SOP) sample preparation coupled with MS method termed SOP-MS for label-free single-cell and nanoscale proteomics. SOP-MS capitalizes on the combination of a MS-compatible surfactant, DDM (n-Dodecyl-ß-D-maltoside), and standard low-bind PCR tube or multi-well plate for ‘all-in-one’ one-pot sample preparation without sample transfer. With its robust and convenient features, SOP-MS can be readily implemented in any MS laboratory for single-cell and nanoscale proteomics. With further improvements in MS detection sensitivity and sample throughput, we believe that SOP-MS could open an avenue for single-cell proteomics with broad applicability in the biological and biomedical research.
