Cysteine (Cys) reversible post-translational modifications (PTMs) are emerging as important players in cellular signaling and redox homeostasis. Here we present Cys-BOOST a novel strategy for LC-MS/MS based quantitative analysis of reversibly modified Cys using switch technique, enrichment via bio-orthogonal cleavable linker and quantification using tandem mas tag (TMT) reagents. We performed direct comparison of Cys-BOOST (n=3) with iodo-TMT (n=3) by analyzing the total CysCys from HeLa cell extracts. As a result higher sensitivity (25,019 vs 9,966 Cys peptides), specificity (98 vs 74 %) and technical reproducibility were obtained by Cys-BOOST. In addition, the application of Cys-BOOST for the analysis of Cys nitrosylation (SNO) in S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) treated and non-treated HeLa cell extracts lead to the identification of unprecedented number of SNO proteins (3,537), SNO peptides (9,314) and unique SNO sites (8,304). Based on the quantitative data we describe SNO consensus motifs for endogenous SNO and SNO sites with differential reactivity to GSNO. Collectively, our findings suggest Cys-BOOST as a concurrent method of choice for Cys PTM analysis.
