Highly specific enrichment of N-glycoproteome through a nonreductive amination reaction using Fe3O4@SiO2-aniline nanoparticles†
Abstract
A novel method based on the conjunction of aldehydes from oxidized glycopeptides to aniline groups on magnetic nanoparticles via nonreductive amination is reported for the highly selective enrichment of N-glycopeptides. For the first time, a nonreductive amination reaction has been introduced into N-glycoproteome extraction, and correspondingly a new type of aniline-functionalized nanoparticle has been designed and synthesized.
