We report the use of the dynamic pH junction based capillary zone electrophoresis-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (CZE-ESI-MS/MS) for bottom-up proteomics with an electrokinetically pumped sheath-flow nanospray capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS) interface and both LTQ-XL and LTQ-Orbitrap-Velos mass spectrometers. Conventional injection of 20 nL of a 1 mg/mL BSA digest identified 37 peptides and produced 66% sequence coverage. In contrast, pH junction injection of 130 nL (or larger) of a 0.05 mg/mL BSA digest identified 40 peptides and produced 70% coverage using a pH 6.5 sample buffer and the LTQ. A 20 nL conventional injection of a 1 mg/mL Escherichia coli digest identified 508 peptides and 199 proteins with the LTQ. A 400 nL pH junction injection of a 0.1 mg/mL E. coli digest identified 527 peptides and 179 proteins with the LTQ. Triplicate technical replicates of a 0.01 mg/mL sample with 400-nL injection volume using a pH junction identified 288 ± 9 peptides and 121 ± 5 proteins with the LTQ. There was outstanding concordance in migration time between the pH junction and normal injection. The pH junction produced narrower peaks and significant concentration for all but the most acidic components in the sample. Compared with the conventional stacking method, the pH junction method can generate comparable performance for small injection volume (20 nL) and significantly better concentration performance for a large injection volume (200 nL). We also applied the pH junction to three intact standard proteins and observed a &gt;10× increase in peak intensity compared to conventional injection.
