Natural chitosan was applied as supporting material for Ti(IV) based immobilized metal ion affinity chromatographic (IMAC) material (Ti-CTS). Compared with other polymer based IMAC, Ti-CTS can save the cockamamie synthesis procedures and be easy to obtain. The morphology, surface area, pore volume and elemental composition of Ti-CTS were revealed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Tryptic digest products from several standard proteins and two real samples (non-fat milk and serum) were enriched using Ti-CTS to demonstrate the efficiency of this method. The results showed that this composite enables high sensitive and selective phosphopeptide enrichment from casein variants, non-fat milk and human serum. Furthermore, multi-phosphorylated peptides with three serine phospholated sites (S*S*S*) demonstrated high affinity to Ti-CTS. Hence, this method had great potential for future studies of complex phosphoproteomes and especially multi-phosphorylated peptides.

Phosphoproteins maintain the normal metabolic activity of the organisms. Direct phosphopeptides detection is difficult to be realized by mass spectroscopy (MS) due to the low ionization efficiency, low abundance of phosphopeptides and interferences of complicated biological fluids. In the present work, a magnetic composite material was prepared by combining polyethyleneimine (PEI) and fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) focusing on phosphopeptides enrichment.

Protein phosphorylation is an important post-translational modification that regulates almost all cellular processes, such as cellular metabolism, growth, differentiation, signal transduction, and gene regulation. Mass spectrometry, which acts as an automated and sensitive method, enables global analysis of protein phosphorylation. However, several technical challenges need to be addressed when analyzing protein phosphorylation in a global manner.

Phosphopeptide enrichment methods based on commercial TiO suffer from difficulties in regulating intermolecular interactions, resulting in low coverage rate and the loss of information on multiphosphorylation sites, thereby limiting comprehensive phosphoproteomic analysis. In this work, MXene TiCT was incorporated into the design of enrichment materials, with its surface structure functionalized and regulated to address the low elution efficiency of TiO for multiphosphorylated peptides. Upon oxidation treatment, the TiCT material formed numerous uniformly distributed TiO nanoparticles on the surface of TiCT-O, providing abundant affinity sites (Ti-O) for selective phosphopeptide enrichment.

The analysis of protein phosphorylation and glycosylation is critical for investigating disease development. In this work, 1,2-epoxy-5-hexene and ,-methylenebisacrylamide were polymerized with vinyl phosphate to produce a polymer (denoted as PVME), which contained a variety of hydrophilic groups. The material's hydrophilicity was further enhanced by a ring-opening reaction with cysteine (the product was denoted as Cys-PVEM).
