67. Load the sample by pipetting the protein digest up and down
(discarding it back into its tube). Repeat at least 10Â.
68. Elute the peptides by pipetting the ZipTip up and down in the
elution buffer (discarding it back into its tube). Repeat at least
10Â.
69. Ensure there are no air bubbles at the bottom of the vial.
70. Equilibrate the column for at least 15 min.
71. Tuning if necessary and save the new tune method after the
successful tuning.
72. Inject 1 μL of the 500 fmols/μL cyt c standard solution per
four sample injections and use cyt c solution as LC–MS/MS
data quality control.
73. We work with the linear ion trap mass spectrometer LTQ Velos
Pro with electrospray ionization (ESI). Adjust the MS/MS
method if you work with any other mass spectrometer.
74. Our search criteria for the identification of carbonylated proteins are: oxidation of methionine and carbamidomethylation
of cysteine as variable modifications, trypsin as the proteolytic
enzyme, maximum 2 missed cleavages per peptide and a mass
tolerance of Æ1 Da for precursor and Æ0.6 Da for product ion
scans. False discovery rate (FDR) for identifications were
accepted if <1%. Modify the search parameters according to
the properties of the mass spectrometer used.
