We used peptide-centric LC-MS/MS on proteolytic digests of whole bovine milk, resulting in the combined identification of 212 individual bovine milk protein sequences, with IgG making up >50 percent of the protein content of every 0.5 d colostrum sample, which reduced to ≤3 percent in mature milk. In parallel, we analyzed IgG captured from the bovine milk samples to characterize its N-glycosylation, using dedicated methods for bottom-up glycoproteomics employing product ion-triggered hybrid fragmentation; data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD037755. The bovine milk IgG N-glycosylation profile was revealed to be very heterogeneous, consisting of >40 glycoforms. Furthermore, these N-glycosylation profiles changed substantially over the period of lactation, but consistently across the four individual cows. We identified NeuAc sialylation as the key abundant characteristic of bovine colostrum IgG, significantly decreasing in the first days of lactation, and barely detectable in mature bovine milk IgG. We also report, for the first time to our knowledge, the identification of subtype IgG3 in bovine milk, alongside the better-documented IgG1 and IgG2. The detailed molecular characteristics we describe of the bovine milk IgG, and their dynamic changes during lactation, are important not only for the fundamental understanding of the calf's immune development, but also for understanding bovine milk and its bioactive components in the context of human nutrition.", "claims": [{"id": "claim-data-access", "statement": "The mass spectrometry raw data and complete Byonic search results of the glycoproteomics analyses on the captured IgG have been deposited to the ProteomeXchange Consortium (Deutsch et al. 2020) via the PRIDE (Perez-Riverol et al. 2022) partner repository with the dataset identifier PXD037755.", "kind": "methodological", "target": null, "evidence": [{"asset": "source:pmid:36611013", "locator": "sections[14] \"Analysis of bovine milk proteome and captured IgG CH2 N-glycosylation by mass spectrometry\" paragraph 5", "quote": "The mass spectrometry raw data and complete Byonic search results of the glycoproteomics analyses on the captured IgG have been deposited to the ProteomeXchange Consortium (Deutsch et al. 2020) via the PRIDE (Perez-Riverol et al. 2022) partner repository with the dataset identifier PXD037755."}], "state": "complete"}, {"id": "claim-target-result", "statement": "The bovine milk IgG N-glycosylation profile was revealed to be very heterogeneous, consisting of >40 glycoforms.", "kind": "qualitative", "target": null, "evidence": [{"asset": "source:pmid:36611013", "locator": "sections[0] \"Abstract\" paragraph 1", "quote": "The bovine milk IgG N-glycosylation profile was revealed to be very heterogeneous, consisting of >40 glycoforms."}], "state": "complete"}], "gaps": []}, "experiment": {"state": "complete", "objective": "The bovine milk IgG N-glycosylation profile was revealed to be very heterogeneous, consisting of >40 glycoforms.", "steps": [{"id": "read_published_estimate", "order": 1, "name": "Read the published estimate from the source", "kind": "other", "state": "complete", "blocked_on": null, "description": "The claim, method and evidence span published with the source article.", "duration_hours": null, "parameters": {}, "inputs": ["source:pmid:36611013"], "outputs": ["the published estimate and its evidence"], "instruments": [], "reagents": []}, {"id": "obtain_source_data", "order": 2, "name": "Obtain the source data from the named repository", "kind": "data-preparation", "state": "complete", "blocked_on": null, "description": "The GEO series accession resolves and its sample accessions are listed.
