Is high resolution a strict requirement for mass spectrometry-based cellular DNA adductomics?

ABSTRACT: Exposure to endogenous and exogenous factors can result in the formation of a wide variety of DNA adducts, and these may lead to gene mutations, thereby contributing to the development of cancer. DNA adductomics, a novel tool for exposomics, aims to detect the totality of DNA adducts. Liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) is the state-of-the-art method for DNA adductomic analysis, although its high cost has limited widespread use. In this study, we compared the analytical performance between HRMS and the more popular/accessible triple-quadrupole MS (QqQ-MS). We initially developed and optimized a hybrid quadrupole-linear ion trap-orbitrap MS (Q-LIT-OT-MS) method, considering the detection of both purine and pyrimidine adducts.
