SpHPP PEPTIDE SYNTHESIS in targeted proteomics Manuel Lombardía Uría Proteomics Facility – National Centre of Biotechnology
Peptide synthesis for targeted proteomics Stages: • Selection and design of peptides for each protein of interest: • essential process for the success of SRM/MRM experiments • selection based on experimental and theoretical criteria • obtention of optimal proteotypic peptides • Chemical synthesis • Experimental validation of proteotypic peptides • Heavy isotope peptide synthesis
Peptide selection Proteins of interest
Peptide selection Proteins of interest PTP prediction Candidate proteotypic peptides resulting from “in silico” digestion Experimental evidence Tryptic peptide observation by LC-MS/Ms analysis in biological samples

Peptide selection criteria • Unique for each protein: Uniprot/Swiss prot searching (BLAST) • At least 3-4 peptides for protein • No missed cleavages • Containing 6-20 residues • Low hydrofobicity: values from 10 to 40 according to the SSRCalc algorithm • Avoid aa containing potential modification sites: • - Met and Trp undergo rapid oxidation • - Asn paired with G or P can be deamidated • - Gln or Glu at N-term undergo cyclization to pyroglutamic. Also C when carbamidomethylated • - Asn at N-term: protecting group can be difficult to remove during cleavage • - Asp paired with Gly, Pro or Ser can be hydrolised under acidic conditions • - Acidic aa at position P2 or P2’ promotes missed cleavage • - Asn in glycosilation consensus sequences (Asn-X-Ser/Thr) • - His residues close to either N or C terminus can undergo charge supression

Peptide synthesis • Equipment: Authomatic synthesizer Multipep (Intavis AG) • Method: Solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) using polymeric resins proloaded and FMOC • Format: 96 minicolumn plates at a scale of 1-10 µmol • Peptide purification by semi-preparative HPLC • Resins preloaded with isotopically labeled Arg and Lys for the synthesis of peptides containing heavy Arg or Lys at the C-terminus • Heavy peptide quantification by amino acid analysis or fluorescence spectroscopy (commercial kit)
Peptide validation Synthesized peptides crude or purified MALDI-TOF MS testing Validation by SRM/MRM experiments Optimal proteotypic peptides Heavy peptides synthesis

PRACTICAL ISSUES Los precios 75 y 30€ (Arg y Lys) son sólo de la resina para cada péptido. Habría que añadir los 15 - 20€ por la síntesis. La cuantificación sólo se incluiría para los péptidos pesados precio? Tiempo?. Los tiempos para péptidos crudos, depende de cuántos sean, pero p.e. para media placa (48 péptidos) serían dos días para la síntesis y una semana para pasar por HPLC y al menos un día más para liofilizar, pesar y etiquetar. De 10-15 días si todo va bien.
