Summary of "Zirconia layer coated mesoporous silica microspheres as HILIC SPE materials for selective glycopeptide enrichment."

Characterization of protein glycosylation requires highly specific methods for the enrichment of glycopeptides because of their sub-stoichiometric glycosylation-site occupancy. The hydrophilic affinity based strategy has attracted more attention, owing to its broad glycan specificity, good reproducibility, and compatibility with mass spectrometric (MS) analysis. Several polar matrices have emerged for hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) approaches, including sepharose, cellulose, ZIC-HILIC and titania. Here, we present the solid-phase extraction (SPE) utility of zirconia coated mesoporous silica (ZrO(2)/MPS) microspheres for glycopeptide isolation prior to MS analysis. The high specificity of this SPE approach was demonstrated by the enrichment of glycopeptides from the digests of model glycoproteins in HILIC mode. ZrO(2)/MPS microspheres show superior selectivity and glycosylation heterogeneity coverage for glycopeptide enrichment to conventional sepharose. Furthermore, digested mixtures of the phosphoprotein α-casein and IgG were also treated with ZrO(2)/MPS HILIC SPE materials, which exhibited that glycopeptides could be effectively enriched with interference from phosphorylated peptides.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions

Coated Materials, Biocompatible

Biocompatible materials usually used in dental and bone implants that enhance biologic fixation, thereby increasing the bond strength between the coated material and bone, and minimize possible biological effects that may result from the implant itself.

Solid Phase Microextraction

A solventless sample preparation method, invented in 1989, that uses a fused silica fiber which is coated with a stationary phase. It is used for sample cleanup before using other analytical methods.

Chromatography, Thin Layer

Chromatography on thin layers of adsorbents rather than in columns. The adsorbent can be alumina, silica gel, silicates, charcoals, or cellulose. (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed)

Nanowires

Nanometer-scale wires made of materials that conduct electricity. They can be coated with molecules such as antibodies that will bind to proteins and other substances.

Immunomagnetic Separation

A cell-separation technique where magnetizable microspheres or beads are first coated with monoclonal antibody, allowed to search and bind to target cells, and are then selectively removed when passed through a magnetic field. Among other applications, the technique is commonly used to remove tumor cells from the marrow (BONE MARROW PURGING) of patients who are to undergo autologous bone marrow transplantation.
