Outline
• Proteomics
• Mass Spectrometry
• Protein Identification• Peptide Mass Fingerprint• Tandem Mass Spectrometry

Proteomics
• Proteins are the machines that drive much of biology• Genes are merely the recipe
• The direct characterization of a sample’s proteins en masse. • What proteins are present?• How much of each protein is present?

Paradigm Shift
• Traditional protein chemistry assay methods struggle to establish identity.
• Identity requires:• Specificity of measurement (Precision)
• Mass spectrometry• A reference for comparison
(Measurement → Identity)• Protein sequence databases

42
De Novo Interpretation
• Find good paths in spectrum graph• Can’t use same peak twice
• Forbidden pairs: NP-hard• “Nested” forbidden pairs: Dynamic Prog.
• Simple peptide fragmentation model• Usually many apparently good
solutions• Needs better fragmentation model• Needs better path scoring
![Page 43: Protein Identification by Sequence Database Search Nathan Edwards Department of Biochemistry and Mol. & Cell. Biology Georgetown University Medical Center](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d195503460f949eeaea/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
43
De Novo Interpretation
• Amino-acids have duplicate masses!• Incomplete ladders create ambiguity.• Noise peaks and unmodeled fragments
create ambiguity• “Best” de novo interpretation may have no
biological relevance• Current algorithms cannot model many
aspects of peptide fragmentation• Identifies relatively few peptides in high-
throughput workflows
![Page 44: Protein Identification by Sequence Database Search Nathan Edwards Department of Biochemistry and Mol. & Cell. Biology Georgetown University Medical Center](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d195503460f949eeaea/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
44
Sequence Database Search
• Compares peptides from a protein sequence database with spectra
• Filter peptide candidates by• Precursor mass• Digest motif
• Score each peptide against spectrum• Generate all possible peptide fragments• Match putative fragments with peaks• Score and rank

Sequence Database Search
• No need for complete ladders• Possible to model all known peptide
fragments• Sequence permutations eliminated• All candidates have some biological
relevance• Practical for high-throughput peptide
identification• Correct peptide might be missing from
database!

Peptide Candidate Filtering
• Digestion Enzyme: Trypsin• Cuts just after K or R unless followed by a
P.• Basic residues (K & R) at C-terminal
attract ionizing charge, leading to strong y-ions
• “Average” peptide length about 10-15 amino-acids
• Must allow for “missed” cleavage sites

Peptide Scoring
• Peptide fragments vary based on• The instrument• The peptide’s amino-acid sequence• The peptide’s charge state• Etc…
• Search engines model peptide fragmentation to various degrees. • Speed vs. sensitivity tradeoff• y-ions & b-ions occur most frequently
![Page 58: Protein Identification by Sequence Database Search Nathan Edwards Department of Biochemistry and Mol. & Cell. Biology Georgetown University Medical Center](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d195503460f949eeaea/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)

Peptide Identification
• High-throughput workflows demand we analyze all spectra, all the time.
• Spectra may not contain enough information to be interpreted correctly• …fading in and out on a cell phone
• Spectra may contain too many peaks• …static or background noise
• Peptides may not match our assumptions• …its all Greek to me
• “Don’t know” is an acceptable answer!

Sequence Database SearchTraps and Pitfalls
Search options may eliminate the correct peptide• Precursor mass tolerance too small• Incorrect precursor ion charge state• Non-tryptic or semi-tryptic peptide• Incorrect or unexpected modification• Sequence database too conservative• Unreliable taxonomy annotation

73
Sequence Database SearchTraps and Pitfalls
Search options can cause infinite search times
• Variable modifications increase search times exponentially
• Non-tryptic search increases search time by two orders of magnitude
• Large sequence databases contain many irrelevant peptide candidates
![Page 74: Protein Identification by Sequence Database Search Nathan Edwards Department of Biochemistry and Mol. & Cell. Biology Georgetown University Medical Center](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d195503460f949eeaea/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
74
Sequence Database SearchTraps and Pitfalls
Best available peptide isn’t necessarily correct!• Score statistics (e-values) are essential!
• What is the chance a peptide could score this well by chance alone?
• Incorrect instrument settings or fragment tolerance can render scores non-specific.
• The wrong peptide can look correct if the right peptide is missing!
• Need scores (or e-values) that are invariant to spectrum quality and peptide properties
![Page 75: Protein Identification by Sequence Database Search Nathan Edwards Department of Biochemistry and Mol. & Cell. Biology Georgetown University Medical Center](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d195503460f949eeaea/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
75
Sequence Database SearchTraps and Pitfalls
Search engines often make incorrect assumptions about sample prep
• Proteins with lots of identified peptides are not more likely to be present
• Peptide identifications do not represent independent observations
• All proteins are not equally interesting to report
![Page 76: Protein Identification by Sequence Database Search Nathan Edwards Department of Biochemistry and Mol. & Cell. Biology Georgetown University Medical Center](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d195503460f949eeaea/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
76
Sequence Database SearchTraps and Pitfalls
Good spectral processing can make a big difference
• Poorly calibrated spectra require large m/z tolerances
• Poorly baselined spectra make small peaks hard to believe
• Poorly de-isotoped spectra have extra peaks and misleading charge state assignments
![Page 77: Protein Identification by Sequence Database Search Nathan Edwards Department of Biochemistry and Mol. & Cell. Biology Georgetown University Medical Center](https://reader038.vdocument.in/reader038/viewer/2022103123/56649d195503460f949eeaea/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
77
Summary
• Protein identification from tandem mass spectra is a key proteomics technology.
• Protein identifications should be treated with healthy skepticism.• Look at all the evidence!
• Spectra remain unidentified for a variety of reasons.
