N2 - The growing use of hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) for studying membrane proteins, large protein assemblies, and highly disulfide-bonded species is often challenged by the presence in the sample of large amounts of lipids, protein ligands, and/or highly ionizable reducing agents. Here, we describe how a short size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) column can be integrated with a conventional temperature-controlled HDX-MS setup to achieve fast and online removal of unwanted species from the HDX sample prior to chromatographic separation and MS analysis. Dual-mode valves permit labeled proteins eluting after SEC to be directed to the proteolytic and chromatographic columns, while unwanted sample components are led to waste. The SEC-coupled HDX-MS method allows analyses to be completed with lower or similar back-exchange compared to conventional experiments. We demonstrate the suitability of the method for the analysis of challenging protein samples, achieving efficient online removal of lipid components from protein-lipid systems, depletion of an antibody from an antigen during epitope mapping, and elimination of MS interfering compounds such as tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine (TCEP) during HDX-MS analysis of a disulfide-bonded protein. The implementation of the short SEC column to the conventional HDX-MS setup is straightforward and could be of significant general utility during the HDX-MS analysis of complex protein states.
