The mass range of tandem mass spectra can be categorized into three main regions. For glycopeptides, the lower mass range contains mainly oxonium ions, the middle range contains mainly peptide fragments, and the high range contains charge-reduced fragments. All regions contain valuable fragment ion information, but they can only be simultaneously accessed by breaking the 5–10–15 rule.
MS/MS scan range can be an afterthought that doesn't receive attention in method design, but improper settings can affect experimental outcomes. This is especially true in glycoproteomics.

Profiling Glycoproteins Enriched by Multinanoparticle Protein Corona
Biofluids, such as plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), present significant challenges for proteome and glycoproteome analysis due to their complex protein composition and wide dynamic range of prote...
A month behind the times, but I wanted to share an update from @emmajays.bsky.social and other co-authors in @riley-research.bsky.social. Our manuscript "Profiling Glycoproteins Enriched by Multinanoparticle Protein Corona" is now published in Analytical Chemistry:

@timveth.bsky.social is not only attending #SFG2025 - he helped organize Glycopalooza events for early career researchers and is presenting poster B10-110 Tuesday. Check it out in session 2 to hear his impressive work integrating bottom-up and top-down methods to define glycoproteoform heterogeneity

The overlap of #HUPO2025 with #SFG2025 this week means I’m missing out on the #glycotime fun at SFG in San Diego.
I am happy postdoc @timveth.bsky.social is able to represent @riley-research.bsky.social at SFG instead!

If you are at #HUPO2025 and want to see some recent work from @riley-research.bsky.social, come check out Kayla’s talk on Monday afternoon in the Glycoproteomics session in the Frontenac Ballroom!
My poster on our recent work informatics tools is on Monday afternoon too. See you there!

Can nanoparticles help us probe the glycoproteome?
The new pre-print from @riley-research.bsky.social seeks to answer this question using the Proteograph technology from Seer Inc.

Have you wondered how nanoparticle protein coronas (e.g., Seer’s Proteograph XT) can help with glycoprotein enrichment in biofluids?
We were curious, too, and this new @riley-research.bsky.social pre-print led by outstanding postdoc @emmajays.bsky.social details our #glycotime investigations.

#ASMS2025 offers great evening workshops. If you are interested in real-time decision-making during MS data acquisition or still looking for one to join,
consider the Real time Mass Spectrometry Workshop featuring speakers and panelists Sarah Sipe, Aarthie Senathirajah, and Manuel Peris Diaz.

Who's that T12-er? Nick Riley: "I was asking a lot more questions about the instrument than I was about the experiments."
@nmriley.bsky.social of @riley-research.bsky.social is pursuing better ways to study the biochemistry of sugars that decorate cell surfaces. He hopes that someday scientists could analyze these sugars en masse to infer the health of the cell. Read more: cen.acs.org/biological-c...

@riley-research.bsky.social is excited for #ASMS2025 in Baltimore!
We made sure to capitalize on some of the classics, like a crab dinner at LP Steamers and an Orioles game, before the conference festivities kicked off.
Come hear what we have been up to!

Truthfully, I am proud of all the @riley-research.bsky.social members who applied for the GRFP, both this year and last. These are highly competitive awards, and it is tough not to be selected, but the scientific and personal growth I see throughout the process is always impressive and inspiring.
