Increased N,N-Dimethyl Leucine Isobaric Tag Multiplexing by a Combined Precursor Isotopic Labeling and Isobaric Tagging Approach.

ABSTRACT: Multiplex isobaric tags have become valuable tools for high-throughput quantitative analysis of complex biological samples in discovery-based proteomics studies. Hybrid labeling strategies that pair stable isotope mass difference labeling with multiplex isobaric tag-based quantification further facilitate these studies by greatly increasing multiplexing capability. In this work, we present a cost-effective chemical labeling approach that couples duplex stable isotope dimethyl labeling with our custom 12-plex N,N-dimethyl leucine (DiLeu) isobaric tags in a combined precursor isotopic labeling and isobaric tagging (cPILOT) strategy that is compatible with a wide variety of biological samples and permits 24-plex quantification in a single LC-MS/MS experiment. We demonstrate the utility of the
