Scanning DIA on the ZenoTOF 8600 system enables ultra-sensitive and quantitative proteomics from single cells to post-translational modifications in a compact platform Mass spectrometry-based proteomics increasingly demands platforms that combine quantitative rigor with the discovery capabilities of accurate mass systems. Here we present the ZenoTOF 8600 system, a compact mass spectrometry system that integrates enhanced ion capture and transmission optics with an optical detection system, Zeno trap-enhanced MS/MS, electron-activated dissociation, and scanning quadrupole data-independent acquisition (ZT Scan DIA). We show that ZT Scan DIA outperforms conventional variable-window DIA (Zeno SWATH DIA) in both identifications and quantitative reproducibility, and demonstrate the platform’s versatility across proteomics applications: thousands of protein groups from bulk samples at up to 500 samples per day, single-cell proteomics yielding up to 4,700 proteins, accurate ratio recovery in mixed-species quantitative benchmarks, low-attomole targeted quantitation, and detection of disease-relevant phosphorylation in a Parkinson’s disease cellular model using complementary CID and EAD fragmentation. The instrument’s compact footprint makes it attractive for settings where both analytical breadth and operational robustness are required.

Why choose between sensitivity and discovery?

ZenoTOF 8600 system = triple quad–class sensitivity + accurate mass QTOF.

One platform. No compromises. 🔥

Sialic Acid Linkage Identification in Glycosylated Peptides Using Multitandem Collision-Induced and Electronically Excited Dissociation Mass Spectrometry In our previous publication [Anal. Chem. 2023, 95, 7458–7467], we demonstrated the use of electron capture dissociation for Sa linkage analysis in N-glycans; however, its application was challenging because its diagnostic capabilities depended on the size of the glycans and peptide backbones. In this work, we propose a universal method for analyzing Sa linkages in N-glycans and O-glycans that is applicable to both glycopeptides and free glycans. Specifically, electronically excited dissociation (EED) is applied to the antennary SaGalHexNAc fragments that collision-induced dissociation (CID) produces from glycopeptides and glycoproteins. We found that EED on the fragments produced the Z2• fragment when Sa was linked in α(2,3) in N-glycans, but it was negligibly weak in the cases with α(2,6) linkages. This method was expanded to O-glycans, though the discrimination between the two Sa linkages was not as prominent as that of N-glycans. We introduced four synthesized authentic glycan standards: SaGalHexNAc-OH in the free glycan forms in two Sa-Gal linkages and HexNAc: GlcNAc and GalNAc established the calibration of the Sa-linkage diagnostics in both sialylated N- and O-glycans. We confirmed that the water-lost products by CID from the free form standards have the same structures as the CID products from the native glycans and glycopeptides, which is followed by EED. The established methods were successfully applied to native glycopeptides and glycoproteins, including egg yolk glycopeptide, bovine fetuin, and human erythropoietin.
