fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (fabms) analysis of an n- terminal - blocked peptide

نویسندگان
چکیده

fabms analysis of t-lb peptide before and after one cycle of edman degradation indicated an unblocked n-terminal thr residue for this tryptic peptide. in contrast , our data showed a molecular protonated ion, mh + for t- la peptide at 655 mass units (mu) which is 42 mu higher than the mh ion of t- 1b peptide. in addition, t- la peptide was not amenable to one cycle of manual edman degradation. these observations suggest that the n-terminal residue of t- 1 a peptide is blocked by a chemical group having a mass of 42 mu. this observation is consistent with the presence of an n-terminal acetyl group. this prediction was further investigated by complete characterization of the gas phased fragment ions, originated from the individual peptides, using link-scanning approach. the fragment ions again suggest an acetyl group attached to an n-terminal threonine. in addition, the fragment ions provide evidence that the two peptides (t-la and t-lb) have identical structures except for the n-acetyl group

C-terminal peptide identification by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry.

A previously described technique [Rose, Simona, Offord, Prior, Otto & Thatcher (1983) Biochem. J. 215, 273-277] permits the identification of the C-terminal peptide of a protein as the only peptide that does not incorporate any 18O upon partial enzymic hydrolysis in 18O-labelled water. Formation of chemical derivatives followed by combined g.l.c.-m.s. was used in this earlier work. We now descr...

Fast - atom - bombardment mass spectrometry

A detailed study of the mass spectra of peptides produced by the new technique of fast-atom bombardment is reported. Molecular weights of unmodified peptides containing up to 21 amino acids have been determined. In favourable cases, the molecular-weight determination may be made on as little as 0.1 nmol of sample. Positive-ion and negative-ion spectra are obtained with equal facility. With samp...

Continuous-flow fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry.

The continuous-flow fast atom bombardment probe performs equally well with or without a high-performance liquid chromatography column producing clean spectra containing little or no background noise. Its function as a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry interface for labile and involatile samples has been illustrated with reference to dansylated amino acids. The versatility of the new probe...

Quantitative analysis of the molecular species of monosialogangliosides by continuous-flow fast-atom bombardment mass spectrometry.

Negative-ion continuous-flow fast-atom bombardment mass spectrometry was evaluated as a means for the quantitative analysis of N-acetylneuraminyl-galactosyl-glucosyl-ceramide (NeuAc-GM3) and N-acetylgalactosaminyl-(N-acetylneuraminyl)galactosyl-glucosyl-ceramide (NeuAc-GM2). This study was carried out on a 7070-EQ mass spectrometer (VG Analytical, Manchester, UK) using a home-made continuous-fl...
