Schematic representation of the workflow for the integrated analysis of glycosite-containing peptides, global protein expression, and intact glycopeptides. Proteins were obtained from LNCaP and PC3 cell lines followed by tryptic digestion and iTRAQ labeling. Labeled peptide samples were then combined and separated into two aliquots. One aliquot was enriched for glycosite-containing peptides using Solid Phase Extraction of Glycopeptides (SPEG) and the other aliquot was used for bRPLC separation followed by the analysis of global proteins and intact glycopeptides. Finally, peptides were analyzed using LC-MS/MS.
