MS-target analyses are frequently utilized to analyze and validate structural changes of biomolecules across diverse fields of study such as proteomics, glycoproteomics, glycomics, lipidomics, and metabolomics. Targeted studies are commonly conducted using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) and parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) techniques. A reliable glycoproteomics analysis in intricate biological matrices is possible with these techniques, which streamline the analytical workflow, lower background interference, and enhance selectivity and specificity.

The role of peripheral blood platelets as indicators of cancer progression is increasingly recognized, and the significance of abnormal glycosylation in platelet function and related disorders is gaining attention. However, the potential of platelets as a source of protein site-specific glycosylation for cancer diagnosis remains underexplored. In this study, we proposed a general pipeline that integrates quantitative proteomics with site-specific glycoproteomics, allowing for an in-depth investigation of the platelet glycoproteome.

Intact glycopeptide characterization by mass spectrometry has proven to be a versatile tool for site-specific glycoproteomics analysis and biomarker screening. Here, we present a method using a new model of a Q-TOF instrument equipped with a Zeno trap for intact glycopeptide identification and demonstrate its ability to analyze large-cohort glycoproteomes. From 124 clinical serum samples of breast cancer, noncancerous diseases, and nondisease controls, a total of 6901 unique site-specific glycans on 807 glycosites of proteins were detected.

The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has resulted in hundreds of millions of infections and millions of deaths globally. Although vaccination campaigns are mitigating the pandemic, emerging viral variants continue to pose challenges. The spike (S) protein of SARS-CoV-2 plays a critical role in viral entry by binding to the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor, making both proteins essential targets for therapeutic and vaccine development.

N-glycosylation is crucial in the process of wheat yellow mosaic virus (WYMV) infection, but changes in site-specific N-glycosylation of proteins during WYMV infection have not been well studied. In this study, we employed an intact glycopeptide approach to analyze mock- and WYMV-infected wheat plants. We found that most glycoproteins have N-glycans containing paucimannose or complex/hybrid chains.

Background: Pancreatic cancer is a highly aggressive tumor with a poor prognosis due to a low early detection rate and a lack of biomarkers. Most of pancreatic cancer is pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Alterations in the N-glycosylation of plasma immunoglobulin G (IgG) have been shown to be closely associated with the onset and development of several cancers and could be used as biomarkers for diagnosis.
