Extracted ion current measurements, expressed as AUC for the myoglobin Nt-dimethylated and -underivatized peptide GLSDGEWQQVLNVWGK. Xcalibur analysis (version 2.1.0) was used to isolate experimental masses (m/z; charge: 2+) for the following ions: underivatized, Nt-dimethylated, and Nt-dimethylated peptide with 1 deamidated (Deam) asparagine and with 2 deamidated residues—asparagine and glutamine. For these relative quantitative measurements, MS1 window with mass accuracy of 5 ppm was used. A1, A2, and A3, Gel-bound myoglobin samples, where half of 5 pmol starting material digest was analyzed by LC-MS/MS. B1, B2, and B3, analysis half of 1.0 pmol myoglobin digests. calc, calculated; obsrv, observed.
