Bioinformatics Tool for Mass Spectrometry Based Lipidomics Workflows

Bioinformatics Tool for Mass Spectrometry Based Lipidomics Workflows

April 26, 2018

The main biological functions of lipids include energy storage, acting as structural components of cell membranes, and participating as important signaling molecules. Lipids play diverse and important roles in nutrition and health e.g., abnormal levels of certain lipids, particularly cholesterol, and trans fatty acids are risk factors for heart disease and other diseases. Lipids also play a key role in cell, tissue and organ physiology with diseases such as cancer and diabetes which involve disruption of metabolic enzyme pathways [...]

Automating Rapid and Accurate Identification of the N-Glycans of a Recombinant Human Erythropoietin (rhEPO) Expressed by a Chinese hamster Ovary (CHO) Cell Line using Tandem MS/MS Data

Typical native N-Linked Glycans of rhEPO expressed by CHO cell line (Szabo et al. Journal of proteome research. 2018 Feb 16.)

March 27, 2018

Biopharmaceuticals represent the fastest growing sector of the pharmaceutical industry, mainly driven by a rapid expansion in the manufacture of recombinant protein-based drugs [1]. The majority of the therapeutic proteins are glycoproteins (monoclonal antibodies, blood proteins, growth factors, vaccines, fusion proteins) and hence, glycosylation is the most prominent post-translational modifications occurring on these protein drugs.

Automated and Rapid Characterization of Low-Molecular-Weight Heparin Oligosaccharides using SimGlycan software v. 5.90

LC-MS/MS Data Analysis for Low-Molecular-Weight Heparin Identification

February 15, 2018

Unfractionated Heparin (UH) is an anticoagulant formulated of anionic, sulfated glycosaminoglycan. However, during infusion, this naturally occurring anticoagulant has been associated with various health problems. In contrast, low molecular weight heparins (LMWH) such as Enoxaparin, Parnaparin, Certoparin, Deltaparin, etc., are relatively efficient and safer. Therefore, an increasing demand to study these LMWH as new regulatory drugs has been on the rise [...]

LC-MS Based Glycomics Analysis using Orbitrap-based Mass Spectrometers with SimGlycan Software

LC-MS Glycomics Analysis by SimGlycan

November 28, 2017

The separation of glycans by chromatography prior to MS analysis can reduce sample complexity, minimize ion suppression and increase dynamic range and separation of structural isomers. Rapid development in mixed-mode columns and faster scanning in high resolution mass spectrometers has increased the number of glycans resolved and identified by LC-MS. However, these advancements have not only lead to large data sets, but have also resulted in complex datasets [...]

An Integrated Workflow for Profiling and Semi-Quantitative Analysis of Lipids using Agilent 1260 Infinity SFC Coupled with a 6545 LC/QTOF High Resolution Mass Spectrometer with SimLipid® Software

Learn Profiling and Semi-Quantitative Analysis of Lipids using SimLipid Software

August 04, 2017

The lipidome covers a range of lipids from non-polar to polar. Profiling experiments often need two or more chromatography separation schemes to cover the range of polarities: a normal phase method and a reverse phase method. Quantitation of the annotated lipids requires investigation using a more targeted approach. We have described a comprehensive analytical method using supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) coupled to high resolution mass spectrometry for the analysis of lipids covering the whole spectrum of lipid classes in a single run [...]

Automating Untargeted and Targeted LC-MS Lipid Data Analysis with SimLipid® Software

Automating Untargeted and Targeted LC-MS Lipid Data Analysis with SimLipid

May 22, 2017

The presence of lipids in membranes, or as signaling molecules, is reflective of the physiological state of an organism at a given time. Comparative studies of the complex lipid mixtures found in cells and tissues could potentially reveal lipid biomarkers. It may be noted that a single analytical method to screen all lipids in a biological system has yet to be developed. Targeted and non-targeted approaches based on chromatography and mass spectrometry have been employed for such studies and they both involve the identification and measurement of lipids in the sample [...]

Automate Shotgun, LC-MS and MALDI-MS Based High-throughput Lipidomics using SimLipid®

Automate Shotgun, LC-MS and MALDI-MS based high-throughput lipidomics usin SimLipid®

February 10, 2017

A combination of different approaches namely ‘Shotgun lipidomics’, LC-MS, and MALDI-TOF is often necessary to detect the whole lipidome of an organism. Each lipid class has its own fragmentation patterns as well as ionization efficiency [1], thereby making the interpretation of MS/MS lipid spectra a challenging task. Currently available software tools lack the ability to analyze data generated by all the mentioned approaches in a single platform. We have developed SimLipid® software to address this challenge [...]
