Glycoproteomics: A Balance between High-Throughput and In-Depth Analysis
Open accessAbstract
Glycoproteomics is an important subdiscipline of proteomics. Mass spectrometry (MS)-based glycoproteomics has relied so far on two levels of analysis, targeting either the released glycans or digested glycopeptides. However, limitations of these approaches, caused by the vast structural microheterogeneity that glycoproteins can exhibit, have become evident. Therefore, concomitant methods enabling deep characterization of all discrete glycoforms are essential to extend our functional understanding of the glycoproteome. Here, we discuss recent progress, particularly in protein-centric approaches. High-resolution native MS appears to be especially promising in revealing the glycoform profile of glycoproteins. We propose that systematically integrating MS data acquired at the glycan, glycopeptide, and glycoprotein levels best enhances our understanding of the glycoproteome.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
