This article introduces an optimized and automated Multi-Attribute Method (MAM) workflow that reduces missed cleavages and chromatographic peak tailing and carryover of hydrophobic peptides. The impact of postdigest acidification and the importance of maintaining hydrophobic peptides in solution using strong chaotropic agents are also discussed. The findings highlight the significant increase in the solubility of hydrophobic peptides through oxidation, which can affect quantitation of oxidation levels in MAM workflows.
Recently, we introduced an optimized and automated Multi-Attribute Method (MAM) workflow, which (a) significantly reduces the number of missed cleavages using an automated two-step digestion procedure and (b) dramatically reduces chromatographic peak tailing and carryover of hydrophobic peptides by implementing less retentive reversed-phase column chemistries. Here, further insights are provided on the impact of postdigest acidification and the importance of maintaining hydrophobic peptides in solution using strong chaotropic agents after digestion. We demonstrate how oxidation can significantly increase the solubility of hydrophobic peptides, a fact that can have a profound impact on quantitation of oxidation levels if care is not taken in MAM workflows. We conclude that (a) postdigestion acidification can result in significant acid-catalyzed deamidation during storage in an autosampler at 5 C-degrees and (b) a strong chaotropic agent, such as guanidine hydrochloride, is critical for preventing loss of hydrophobic peptides through adsorption, which can result in (sometimes extreme) biases in quantitation of tryptophan oxidation levels. An optimized method is presented, which effectively addressed acid-catalyzed deamidation and solubility of hydrophobic peptides in MAM workflows.
