As part of a strategy for profiling diverse mixtures of sulfated mucin-derived oligosaccharides, liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) in the negative ion mode has been explored. Two mixtures of sulfated oligosaccharide alditols from porcine stomach and large intestine were analyzed by straight phase chromatography using an amino-bonded column connected to a Q-TOF instrument. Nine sulfated mucin-derived oligosaccharide alditols from porcine stomach underwent extensive fragmentation allowing determination of their sequence. The fragmentation generated primary, secondary, and tertiary fragment ions informative for the elucidation of the saccharide sequence and localization of the sulfate group. From a single chromatographic analysis, the sequences of 28 different sulfated mucin oligosaccharide alditols purified from porcine large intestine were elucidated, revealing information concerning prominent core sequences and terminal blood group-type epitopes. Analysis of these two sulfated oligosaccharide mi;mixtures demonstrated the usefialness of HPLC-ESI-MS/MS: the on-line separation of multiple isomeric sulfated oligosaccharides as present in biological samples, informative fragmentation allowing the identification of the sequence of nonderivatized oligosaccharides, and a sensitivity sufficient for the analysis of quantities as obtained from natural sources.
