Abstract
Mass spectrometry is a powerful tool for protein phosphorylation analysis. Collision-induced dissociation (CID) is a widely applied fragmentation method. Complementary fragmentation techniques such as electron transfer dissociation (ETD) and higher-energy C-trap dissociation (HCD) enhance the accurate elucidation of phosphorylation sites. Here we present proteomic approaches used for identifying phosphorylation sites of in vitro-phosphorylated neuroligin-1 (NL-1) and for identifying PINK1 substrates from outer mitochondrial membrane proteins. Technical details on how to identify phosphorylation sites using CID, ETD, and HCD fragmentation are described, including sample preparation, in-gel and in-solution protein digestion, peptide separation, and data acquisition.
