    Abstract Molecular glues stabilize interactions between E3 ligases and novel substrates to promote substrate degradation, thereby facilitating the inhibition of traditionally "undruggable" protein targets. However, most known molecular glues have been discovered fortuitously or are based on well-established chemical scaffolds. Efficient approaches for discovering and characterizing the effects of molecular glues on protein interactions are required to accelerate the discovery of novel agents. Here, we demonstrate that native mass spectrometry and mass photometry can provide unique insights into the physical mechanism of molecular glues, revealing previously unknown effects of such small molecules on the oligomeric organization of E3 ligases. When compared to well-established solution phase assays, native mass spectrometry provides accurate quantitative descriptions of molecular glue potency and efficacy while also enabling the binding specificity of E3 ligases to be determined in a single, rapid measurement. Such mechanistic insights should accelerate the rational development of molecular glues to afford powerful therapeutic agents.

    Abstract Small molecule drug discovery has been propelled by the continual development of novel scientific methodologies to occasion therapeutic advances. Although established biophysical methods can be used to obtain information regarding the molecular mechanisms underlying drug action, these approaches are often inefficient, low throughput, and ineffective in the analysis of heterogeneous systems including dynamic oligomeric assemblies and proteins that have undergone extensive post-translational modification. Native mass spectrometry can be used to probe protein-small molecule interactions with unprecedented speed and sensitivity, providing unique insights into polydisperse biomolecular systems that are commonly encountered during the drug discovery process. In this review, we describe potential and proven applications of native MS in the study of interactions between small, drug-like molecules and proteins, including large multiprotein complexes and membrane proteins. Approaches to quantify the thermodynamic and kinetic properties of ligand binding are discussed, alongside a summary of gas-phase ion activation techniques that have been used to interrogate the structure of protein-small molecule complexes. We additionally highlight some of the key areas in modern drug design for which native mass spectrometry has elicited significant advances. Future developments and applications of native mass spectrometry in drug discovery workflows are identified, including potential pathways toward studying protein-small molecule interactions on a whole-proteome scale.

    Abstract Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known for their high environmental persistence and potential toxicity. The presence of PFAS has been reported in many dairy products. However, the mechanisms underlying the accumulation of PFAS in these products remain unclear. Here, we used native mass spectrometry and molecular dynamics simulations to probe the interactions between 19 PFAS of environmental concern and two isoforms of the major bovine whey protein β-lactoglobulin (β-LG). We observed that six of these PFAS bound to both protein isoforms with low- to mid-micromolar dissociation constants. Based on quantitative, competitive binding experiments with endogenous ligands, PFAS can bind orthosterically and preferentially to β-LG's hydrophobic ligand-binding calyx. β-Cyclodextrin can also suppress binding of PFAS to β-LG owing to the ability of β-cyclodextrin to directly sequester PFAS from solution. This research sheds light on PFAS-β-LG binding, suggesting that such interactions could impact lipid-fatty acid transport in bovine mammary glands at high PFAS concentrations. Furthermore, our results highlight the potential use of β-cyclodextrin in mitigating PFAS binding, providing insights toward the development of strategies to reduce PFAS accumulation in dairy products and other biological systems.

    Abstract The structural diversity of natural products offers unique opportunities for drug discovery, but challenges associated with their isolation and screening can hinder the identification of drug-like molecules from complex natural product extracts. Here we introduce a mass spectrometry-based approach that integrates untargeted metabolomics with multistage, high-resolution native mass spectrometry to rapidly identify natural products that bind to therapeutically relevant protein targets. By directly screening crude natural product extracts containing thousands of drug-like small molecules using a single, rapid measurement, we could identify novel natural product ligands of human drug targets without fractionation. This method should significantly increase the efficiency of target-based natural product drug discovery workflows.

    Abstract Membrane proteins are challenging to analyze by native mass spectrometry (MS) as their hydrophobic nature typically requires stabilization in detergent micelles that are removed prior to analysis via collisional activation. There is however a practical limit to the amount of energy which can be applied, which often precludes subsequent characterization by top-down MS. To overcome this barrier, we have applied a modified Orbitrap Eclipse Tribrid mass spectrometer coupled to an infrared laser within a high-pressure linear ion trap. We show how tuning the intensity and time of incident photons enables liberation of membrane proteins from detergent micelles. Specifically, we relate the ease of micelle removal to the infrared absorption of detergents in both condensed and gas phases. Top-down MS via infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD), results in good sequence coverage enabling unambiguous identification of membrane proteins and their complexes. By contrasting and comparing the fragmentation patterns of the ammonia channel with two class A GPCRs, we identify successive cleavage of adjacent amino acids within transmembrane domains. Using gas-phase molecular dynamics simulations, we show that areas prone to fragmentation maintain aspects of protein structure at increasing temperatures. Altogether, we propose a rationale to explain why and where in the protein fragment ions are generated.

Masking peptides with protecting groups that can be removed inside the cell, produces a cell-permeable peptide, which theoretically can maintain its biological activity.
