| Abstract |
Here we describe the method for identification of arginylated proteins by mass spectrometry. This method has been originally applied to the identification of N-terminally added Arg on proteins and peptides, and then expanded to identification of side chain arginylation which has been recently described by our groups. The key steps in this method include the use of the mass spectrometry instruments that can identify peptides with very high pass accuracy (Orbitrap) and apply stringent mass cutoffs during automated data analysis, followed by manual validation of the identified spectra. These methods can be used with both complex and purified protein samples and, to date, constitute the only reliable way to confirm arginylation at a particular site on a protein or peptide. |
