Highly-sensitive label-free deep profiling of N-glycans released from biomedically-relevant samples.
Nature Communications 2023 March 24
Alterations of protein glycosylation can serve as sensitive and specific disease biomarkers. Labeling procedures for improved separation and detectability of oligosaccharides have several drawbacks, including incomplete derivatization, side-products, noticeable desialylation/defucosylation, sample loss, and interference with downstream analyses. Here, we develop a label-free workflow based on high sensitivity capillary zone electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CZE-MS) for profiling of native underivatized released N-glycans. Our workflow provides a >45-fold increase in signal intensity compared to the conventional CZE-MS approaches used for N-glycan analysis. Qualitative and quantitative N-glycan profiling of purified human serum IgG, bovine serum fetuin, bovine pancreas ribonuclease B, blood-derived extracellular vesicle isolates, and total plasma results in the detection of >250, >400, >150, >310, and >520 N-glycans, respectively, using injected amounts equivalent to <25 ng of model protein and nL-levels of plasma-derived samples. Compared to reported results for biological samples of similar amounts and complexity, the number of identified N-glycans is increased up to ~15-fold, enabling highly sensitive analysis of sample amounts as low as sub-0.2 nL of plasma volume equivalents. Furthermore, highly sialylated N-glycans are identified and structurally characterized, and untreated sialic acid-linkage isomers are resolved in a single CZE-MS analysis.
