Protein methylation has been implicated in many important biological contexts including signaling, metabolism, and transcriptional control. Despite the importance of this post- translational modification, the global analysis of protein methylation by mass spectrometry-based proteomics has not been e...
Here we optimize the HCD Normalized Collision Energy (NCE) in order to generate neutral losses of monomethylamine and dimethylamine which can be lost by symmetric dimethylarginine and asymmetric dimethylarginine, respectively. By testing a range of NCEs across two different methyl enrichment techniq...
CARM1 muscle KO mice were generated and quadricep muscle tissue was subjected to high pH strong cation exchange and immunoaffinity purification to enrich methyl peptides.
