Top-down high-resolution mass spectrometry of cardiac myosin binding protein C revealed that truncation alters protein phosphorylation state
Open accessAbstract
Cardiac myosin binding protein C (cMyBP-C), bound to the sarcomere's myosin thick filament, plays an important role in the regulation of muscle contraction. cMyBP-C is a large multidomain protein that interacts with myosin, titin, and possibly actin. Mutations in cMyBP-C are the most common known cause of heritable hypertrophic cardiomypathies. Phosphorylation of cMyBP-C plays an essential role in the normal cardiac function. cMyBP-C (142 kDa) has 81 serine and 73 threonine residues presenting a major challenge for unequivocal identification of specific phosphorylation sites. Top-down mass spectrometry, which directly analyzes intact proteins, is a powerful technique to universally observe and quantify protein posttranslational modifications without a priori knowledge. Here, we have extended top-down electron capture dissociation mass spectrometry to comprehensively characterize mouse cMyBP-C expressed in baculovirus. We have unambiguously identified all of the phosphorylation sites in the truncated (28–115 kDa) and full-length forms of cMyBP-C (142 kDa) and characterized the sequential phosphorylations, using a combination of top-down and middle-down (limited proteolysis) MS approach, which ensures full sequence coverage. Unit mass resolution and high mass accuracy (<5 ppm) have been achieved for a 115-kDa protein (the largest protein isotopically resolved to date). Remarkably, we discovered that truncations in recombinant proteins, even a seemingly minor one, can dramatically alter its phosphorylation state, which is significant because truncated recombinant proteins are routinely substituted for their full-length forms in crystal structure and functional studies. Our study provides direct evidence of alterations in the posttranslational state between the truncated and full-length recombinant proteins, which can lead to variations in structure and function.

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.
