Peptide retention prediction in reversed-phase chromatography: proteomic applications

Improved peptide elution time prediction for reversed-phase liquid chromatography-MS by incorporating peptide sequence information.

We describe an improved artificial neural network (ANN)-based method for predicting peptide retention times in reversed-phase liquid chromatography. In addition to the peptide amino acid composition, this study investigated several other peptide descriptors to improve the predictive capability, such as peptide length, sequence, hydrophobicity and hydrophobic moment, and nearest-neighbor amino a...

Peptide retention prediction applied to proteomic data analysis.

A retention prediction model was developed for peptides separated in reversed-phase chromatography. The model was utilized to identify and exclude the false positive (FP) peptide identifications obtained via database search. The selected database included human proteins, as well as decoy sequences of random proteins. The FP peptide detection rate was defined either as number of retention time o...

Reversed Phase Chromatography

Quantitative in silico analysis of organic modifier effect on retention in reversed-phase liquid chromatography.

Retention times in reversed-phase liquid chromatography were quantitatively analyzed in silico using alkanes as standard compounds, much like they have been used for Kovats indices in gas chromatography. The molecular interaction energy was calculated between an analyte and a model hydrophobic phase using a molecular mechanics program. The solvation energy was calculated between an analyte and ...

Retention behavior of lipids in reversed-phase ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.

Reversed-phase ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography (RP-UHPLC) method using two 15cm sub-2μm particles octadecylsilica gel columns is developed with the goal to separate and unambiguously identify a large number of lipid species in biological samples. The identification is performed by the coupling with high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) using quadrupole - time-of-flight (Q...
