Protein phosphorylation is a type of posttranslational modification which plays an important role in cell regulation and signal transduction. Because of its biological relevance, a considerable amount of interest has been paid to the development of efficient techniques for phosphopeptide analysis. Although advances in MS control have enabled the high-throughput discovery of proteins from limited amounts of sample, automated selection of MS/MS precursor ions based on intensity alone can significantly hamper the detection of low-abundance phosphopeptides. On the basis of the observation that the introduction of a phosphate moiety does not dramatically change peptide retention time in reverse-phase chromatography, phosphopeptide specific MS/MS fragmentation attempts based on LC retention time and m/z were evaluated using a standard protein mixture, then using in vitro phosphorylated myelin basic protein. Results indicated that the majority (98%) of phosphopeptides identified eluted within a +/-4-min window of the predicted LC elution time. While studies presented here are primarily proof of concept in nature, data suggest that the use of LC retention time prediction could be a valuable constraint for the identification of phosphopeptides within a set of off-line LC deposited sample spots. It is expected that the development of these methods will not only permit the targeted identification of protein phosphorylation sites but also allow the in-depth analysis of the dynamic events linked to the posttranslational modification.
