The diversity of ubiquitin modifications calls for methods to better characterize ubiquitin chain linkage, length, and morphology. Here, we use multiple linear regression analysis coupled with ion mobility mass spectrometry (IM-MS) to quantify the relative abundance of different ubiquitin dimer isomers. We demonstrate the utility and robustness of this approach by quantifying the relative abundance of different ubiquitin dimers in complex mixtures and comparing the results to the standard, bottom-up ubiquitin AQUA method. Our results provide a foundation for using multiple linear regression analysis and IM-MS to characterize more complex ubiquitin chain architectures.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D013058 Mass Spectrometry An analytical method used in determining the identity of a chemical based on its mass using mass analyzers/mass spectrometers. Mass Spectroscopy,Spectrometry, Mass,Spectroscopy, Mass,Spectrum Analysis, Mass,Analysis, Mass Spectrum,Mass Spectrum Analysis,Analyses, Mass Spectrum,Mass Spectrum Analyses,Spectrum Analyses, Mass
D014452 Ubiquitins A family of proteins that are structurally-related to Ubiquitin. Ubiquitins and ubiquitin-like proteins participate in diverse cellular functions, such as protein degradation and HEAT-SHOCK RESPONSE, by conjugation to other proteins. Ubiquitin-Like Protein,Ubiquitin-Like Proteins,Protein, Ubiquitin-Like,Proteins, Ubiquitin-Like,Ubiquitin Like Protein,Ubiquitin Like Proteins
D025801 Ubiquitin A highly conserved 76-amino acid peptide universally found in eukaryotic cells that functions as a marker for intracellular PROTEIN TRANSPORT and degradation. Ubiquitin becomes activated through a series of complicated steps and forms an isopeptide bond to lysine residues of specific proteins within the cell. These "ubiquitinated" proteins can be recognized and degraded by proteosomes or be transported to specific compartments within the cell.
