Abstract
The evolution of mass spectrometry (MS) and analytical techniques has led to the demand for proteome analysis with high proteome coverage in single-shot measurements. Focus has been placed on data-independent acquisition (DIA)-MS and ion mobility spectrometry as techniques for deep proteome analysis. We aimed to expand the proteome coverage by single-shot measurements using optimizing high-field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry parameters in DIA-MS. With our established proteome analysis system, more than 10,000 protein groups were identified from HEK293 cell digests within 120 min of MS measurement time. Additionally, we applied our approach to the analysis of host proteins in mouse feces and detected as many as 892 host protein groups (771 upregulated/121 downregulated proteins) in a mouse model of repeated social defeat stress (R-SDS) used in studying depression. Interestingly, 285 proteins elevated by R-SDS were related to mental disorders. The fecal host protein profiling by deep proteome analysis may help us understand mental illness pathologies noninvasively. Thus, our approach will be helpful for an in-depth comparison of protein expression levels for biological and medical research because it enables the analysis of highly proteome coverage in a single-shot measurement.
