ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
DIA (Data-Independent Acquisition) is a powerful technique in Liquid Chromatography coupled with high-resolution tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) initially developed for proteomics studies and recently emerging in metabolomics and lipidomics. It provides a comprehensive and unbiased coverage of molecules with improved reproducibility and quantitative accuracy compared to Data-Dependent Acquisition (DDA). Combined with the Zeno trap and Electron-Activated Dissociation (EAD), DIA enhances data quality and structural elucidation compared to conventional fragmentation under CID. These tools were applied to study the lipidome and metabolome of the freshwater amphipod Gammarus fossarum, successfully discriminating stages and highlighting significant biological features. Despite being underused, DIA, along with the Zeno trap and EAD, holds great potential for advancing research in the omics field.RESULTS:
DIA combined with the Zeno trap enhances detection reproducibility compared to conventional DDA, improving fragmentation spectra quality and putative identifications. LC coupled with Zeno-SWATH-DIA methods were used to characterize molecular changes in reproductive cycle of female gammarids. Multivariate data analysis including Principal Component Analysis and Partial Least Square Discriminant Analysis successfully identified significant features. EAD fragmentation helped to identify unknown features and to confirm their molecular structure using fragmentation spectra database annotation or machine learning. EAD database matching accurately annotated five glycerophospholipids, including the position of double bonds on fatty acid chain moieties. SIRIUS database predicted structures of unknown features based on experimental fragmentation spectra to compensate for database incompleteness.SIGNIFICANCE:
Reproducible detection of features and confident identification of putative compounds are pivotal stages within analytical pipelines. The DIA approach combined with Zeno pulsing enhances detection sensitivity and targeted fragmentation with EAD in positive polarity provides orthogonal fragmentation information. In our study, Zeno-DIA and EAD thereby facilitated a comprehensive and insightful exploration of pertinent biological molecules associated with the reproductive cycle of gammarids. The developed methodology holds great promises for identifying informative biomarkers on the health status of an environmental sentinel species.Key words
