Fully automated isotopic dimethyl labeling and phosphopeptide enrichment using a microfluidic HPLC phosphochip
Abstract
Quantitative detection of phosphorylation levels is challenging and requires an expertise in both stable isotope labeling as well as enrichment of phosphorylated peptides. Recently, a microfluidic device incorporating a nanoliter flow rate reversed phase column as well as a titania (TiO(2)) enrichment column was released. This HPLC phosphochip allows excellent recovery and separation of phosphorylated peptides in a robust and reproducible manner with little user intervention. In this work, we have extended the abilities of this chip by defining the conditions required for on-chip stable isotope dimethyl labeling allowing for automated quantitation. The resulting approach will make quantitative phosphoproteomics more accessible.
