    Abstract:
    Two-dimensional liquid chromatography (2D-LC) coupled on-line with electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (2D-LC-ESI-MS/MS) is a new platform for analysis and identification of proteome. Peptides are separated by 2D-LC and then performed MS/MS analysis by tandem MS/MS. The MS/MS data are searched against database for protein identification. In one 2D-LC-ESI-MS/MS run, we obtained not only the structural information of peptides directly from MS/MS, but also the retention time of peptides eluted from LC. Information on the chromatographic behavior of peptides can assist protein identification in the new platform for proteomics. The retention time of the matching peptides of the identified protein was predicted by the hydrophobic contribute of each amino acid on reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC). By using this strategy proteins were identified by four types of information: peptide mass fingerprinting (PMF), sequence query, and MS/MS ions searched and the predicted retention time. This additional information obtained from LC could assist protein identification with no extra experimental cost.
