1 Fitting of ETD Rate Constants for Doubly and Triply Charged Ions in a Linear Ion Trap Dirk Nolting and Andreas Wieghaus Thermo Fisher Scientific, Bremen, Germany
2 Overview Purpose: Characterize the rate constants of electron transfer dissociation (ETD) reactions. Knowledge of the rate constants provide information on fragment-current yields and fragmentation pathways. Methods: ETD reaction kinetics were measured and fitted to a consecutive reaction kinetics model. Results: By fitting rate constants for different fragments, it is possible to assign reaction pathways. Introduction Ion/ion reactions in the gas phase are a versatile tool for probing molecular properties. In the field mass spectrometry, ETD has become a common fragmentation method, because it often provides complementary information compared to widely-used thermal dissociation methods which use collisional heating. The maximum product ion current, and thus the sensitivity, are determined by consecutive reaction kinetics. As each reaction step involves charge reduction, it is important to stop the reaction at an early point when the number of remaining charges for product ions reaches is maximum. Both the maximum product ion current and the optimal reaction time are determined by the ETD rate constants. ETD reaction kinetics were measured and compared with the theoretical model. Methods Sample Preparation All experiments were carried out with Thermo Scientific Pierce LTQ Velos ESI Positive Ion Calibration Solution (88323) or a 1 pmol/µl solution of angiotensin I (Sigma-Aldrich A965). Angiotensin was used without further purification. A mixture of 5:5 methanol/water (.1% acetic acid) was used as solvent. All solvents were HPLC grade (Fisher Chemical). Mass Spectrometry All measurements were done with an Thermo Scientific Orbitrap Elite hybrid mass spectrometer (Figure 1). The sample was directly infused using a Thermo Scientific Ion Max ESI ion source. For the analyte ions a AGC target value of 1x1 5 was used and an anion AGC target of 2x1 6 if not noted otherwise. Orbitrap TM mass analyzer detection was used for all mass spectra to avoid the saturation effects of channeltron detectors. Transients were recorded using build-in software features. Data Analysis Transients were extracted from the recorded raw files using Thermo Scientific Xcalibur software version 2.1 with Qual Browser. The extracted transients were imported into Origin 8 software (OriginLab) and fitted using its non-linear curve fitting routines. FIGURE 1. Schematic of an Orbitrap Elite TM mass spectrometer equipped with an ETD module. For ETD, anions and analyte cations are trapped simultaneously in the linear trap, allowing an electron transfer from the fluoranthene anion to the analyte cation causing charge reduction and fragmentation.. Results Modeling Consecutive Reaction Kinetics ETD is a consecutive reaction where each reaction is a charge reduction: k 3 [M+nH] n+ [M+nH] (n-1)+ [M+nH] (n-2)+ 2 Fitting of ETD Rate Constants for Doubly and Triply Charged Ions in a Linear Ion Trap
3 The reaction rates can be described by a system of differential equations: (1) (2) (3) Solving the differential equations gives the chronological sequence for each charge state: (4) (5) Fitting of the Precursor and the Charge-Reduced Species For the doubly charged angiotensin I, rate constants can be fitted using the precursor and the total fragment current. In order to obtain the first rate constant, the precursor intensity (Figure 2a) was fitted to eq. 4. The result shows a very good correlation. The second rate constant,,was obtained by fitting the total fragment current to eq. 5. To reduce the degrees of freedom, was taken from the previous fit and kept constant, thus, only A and of eq. 5 were fitted. Fragments of triply charged precursors can originate from different reaction pathways, and may have different charge states obscuring the detector response. Thus, only the charge-reduced species were used to fit the rate constants (Figure 2b). This avoids ambiguities in the assignment of the fragments, i.e. to which reaction pathway the fragment current contributes. To fit the [M+3H] 2+ species, was taken from the previous fit and kept constant, i.e. only A and of eq. 5 were fitted. Accordingly, [M+3H] + was fitted with constant and from the previous fits and fitting k 3 and A to eq. 6. All fitted curves show good correlation to the experimental data. FIGURE 2.

This assumes that the rate constant is independent of the number of reagent ions if the number of reagent ions is much higher than the number of analyte ions. For a low excess of reagent ions (<5x), the rate constants depends strongly on the AGC target, and the first order approximation is not valid in this range. For a high excess of reagent ions (>1x), the impact is strongly reduced, and the first order approximation can be considered valid. FIGURE 4 Time optimization of the ani similar to the ETD reaction time. While with the anion AGC target, the reaction proportional. Thus, there is an absolut maximum fragmentation yield x1 5 2x1 5 time /ms FIGURE 3. Rate constants measured at different anion AGC targets given as ratio of the initial number reagent ions and analyte ions. As the rate constants should not depend on the AGC target, the first order approximation is only valid for a high excess of reagent ions. 26 rate constant [s -1 ] target ratio reagent/analyte Optimizing the Anion Inject Time of an ETD Event In real life, the time to generate the maximum number of ETD fragment ions depends on the reaction time and the time to inject the reagent ions Both steps require similar amounts of time and are dependent on each other (Figure 4). Increasing the reagent ion injection time reduces the ETD reaction time and vice versa. The optimal reaction time, the reaction time with the highest fragmentation yield, is inversely proportional to the number of reagent ions (Figure 4, green line) and proportional to the injection time (Figure 4, red line). The total time of an ETD event is the sum of the anion inject time and the ETD reaction time (Figure 4, black line). It has an absolute minimum which is at the current measurement close to an anion AGC target of 1x1 5. In this range, the change in reaction rate is small (Figure 3) and increasing the number of reagent ions is no longer compensated by an increase in the rate constants. 4 Fitting of ETD Rate Constants for Doubly and Triply Charged Ions in a Linear Ion Trap

A nearly complete series of c and z ions is formed by singly charged first-generation ions. Most fragments are formed after the first ETD step. For most doubly charged fragments a charge-reduced species is also present. FIGURE 6. ETD spectrum of triply charged angiotensin I. Different mass ranges show different kinetics.

Those ions are singly charged and are formed after the first ETD step. Conclusion Measured ETD reaction kinetics can be described by rate equations for consecutive reactions assuming a first order reaction. Different reaction pathways can be assigned using the reaction kinetics. The maximum fragment yield for angiotensin I can be calculated from the fitted rate constants (56% / 86% for the 2+/3+ precursor). Most sequence-information-containing ions are singly charged ions formed after the first ETD step. Origin is a registered trademark of OriginLab Corporation.
