Abstract A selectively modified porous metal/carbon nanocomposite was fabricated to enhance the enrichment of low-abundance phosphopeptides from biological samples. The carbon matrix derived from the metal-organic framework provides a suitable pore size to allow the diffusion of peptides, while the deliberately modified metal nanoparticles within the pores enhance their interaction with the phosphopeptides. This nanocomposite shows extremely high enrichment selectivity for phosphopeptides in the MALDI-TOF MS detection, even when the molar ratio of α-casein digests versus bovine serum albumin digests was up to about 1:20,000. By combining such nanocomposite with nano-LC-MS/MS, 4556 unique phosphopeptides were identified with high selectivity (95.2%) from HeLa cell extracts. Furthermore, phosphopeptides from prostate tissue digests were also determined. A total of 277 and 1242 phosphopeptides were identified from normal and tumor tissues of a patient with prostate cancer, respectively. This indicates that phosphorylation and prostate cancer can be related to each other. Keywords Metal-organic frameworks . Mesoporous structure . Selective modification . Phosphopeptides enrichment .

facilitate to understand diseased states and develop new drug targets [1]. Mass spectrometry (MS)-based peptide mapping is one of the basic tools for detecting phosphopeptides obtained from phosphoproteins, but phosphopeptides are difficult to detect in direct MS due to their low abundance and poor ionization performance compared with nonphosphopeptides [2]. Immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) is one of the most popular techniques for phosphopeptide enrichment [3]. Based on metal phosphonate chemistry, the capture of ph
