Comparison of In-gel Digestion using Trypsin (Tp), Lysl Endopeptidase (Lep) and Lep Combined with Tp (Lep + Tp)

BSA band (100 ng) resolved by SDS-PAGE was in-gel digested with Tp, Lep and Lep + Tp and analyzed by MALDI-TOFMAS. The figure shows the individual mass spectra. The evaluation of these peptidases is summarized in the table.

Mass spectrum using Tp and Tp + Lep

When Tp is used concurrently with Lep, additional peaks were found around m/z 2000 compared to when only Tp is used. It shows that the recovery rate of peptide increases.

Table. Comparison ofTp, Lep, and Tp + Lep

	Tp	Lep	Tp + Lep
Cleavage site	C-terminal of Arg and Lys	C-terminal of Lys	C-terminal of Arg and Lys
Missed Cleavage(Rates of missed cleavage)^※	Many (8 %)	Very few (0 %)	Few (3 %)
Number of identified peptides	17	19	22

※The coverage (percentage of available peptides in the entire sequence) obtained by database search using a parameter setting of Missed Cleavage = 0 was subtracted from the coverage obtained by using a parameter setting of Missed Cleavage = 1.The value resulted from subtracting the coverage obtained when database searches were performed with Missed cleavage 0 from that obtained when performed with Missed cleavage 1. “Coverage” is the percentage of peptides obtained after in-gel digestion in the whole sequence.

These results indicate there are very few missed cleavages obtained by Lep digestion. When Tp is used concurrently with Lep, missed cleavages decrease and the number of identified peptides increase compared to when only Tp is used.

Data wasprovided by Dr. Y. Wada, Osaka Medical Center and Research Institute for Maternal and Child Health.
