Metal-catalysed radical oxidation of diacyl-glycerophosphatidylcholines (GPC) with ω-6 acyl polyunsaturated fatty acids (PAPC, palmitoyl-arachidonoyl-glycerophosphatidylcholine and PLPC, palmitoyl-lineloyl-glycerophosphatidylcholine) was studied. Free radical oxidation products were trapped by spin trapping with 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolidine-N-oxide (DMPO) and identified by electrospray mass spectrometry (ES-MS). The spin adducts of oxidised GPC containing one and two oxygen atoms and one and two DMPO molecules were observed as doubly charged ions. Structural characterisation by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) of these ions revealed product ions corresponding to loss of the acyl chains (sn-1-palmitoyl and sn-2-oxidised spin adduct of lineloyl or arachidonoyl), loss of the spin trap (DMPO) and product ions attributed to oxidised sn-2 fatty acid spin adduct (lineloyl and arachidonoyl). Product ions formed by homolytic cleavages near the spin trap and also from 1,4 hydrogen elimination cleavages involving the hydroxy group in the sn-2 fatty acid spin adduct allowed to infer the nature of the radical. Altogether, the presence of GPC hydroxy-alkyl/DMPO and hydroxy-alkoxyl/DMPO spin adducts was proposed. 相似文献

The increasing use of multistage tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS and MS (3)) methods for comprehensive phosphoproteome analysis studies, as well as the emerging application of in silico spectral intensity prediction algorithms in enhanced database search analysis strategies, necessitate the development of an improved understanding of the mechanisms and other factors that affect the gas-phase fragmentation reactions of phosphorylated peptide ions. To address this need, we have examined the multistage collision-induced dissociation (CID) behavior of a set of singly and doubly charged phosphoserine- and phosphothreonine-containing peptide ions, as well as their regioselectively or uniformly deuterated derivatives, in a quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometer. Consistent with previous reports, the neutral loss of phosphoric acid (H 3PO 4) was observed as a dominant reaction pathway upon MS/MS. The magnitude of this loss was found to be highly dependent on the proton mobility of the precursor ion for both phosphoserine- and phosphothreonine-containing peptides. In contrast to that currently accepted in the literature, however, the results obtained in this study unequivocally demonstrate that the loss of H 3PO 4 does not predominantly occur via a "charge-remote" beta-elimination reaction. The observation of product ions corresponding to the loss of formaldehyde (CH 2O, 30 Da, or CD 2O, 32 Da) or acetaldehyde (CH 3CHO, 44 Da) upon MS (3) dissociation of the [M+ nH-H 3PO 4] ( n+ ) product ions from phosphoserine- and phosphothreonine-containing peptide ions, respectively, provide experimental evidence for a "charge-directed" mechanism involving an S N2 neighboring group participation reaction, resulting in the formation of a cyclic product ion. Potentially, these "diagnostic" MS (3) product ions may provide additional information to facilitate the characterization of phosphopeptides containing multiple potential phosphorylation sites. 相似文献

Sulfonyl chlorides substituted with functional groups having high proton affinity can serve as derivatization reagents to enhance the sensitivity for steroidal estrogens in liquid chromatography electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS). The most commonly used reagent for derivatization of estrogens for LC-ESI-MS/MS is dansyl chloride. In this study, we compared dansyl chloride, 1,2-dimethylimidazole-4-sulfonyl (DMIS) chloride, pyridine-3-sulfonyl (PS) chloride, and 4-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)benzenesulfonyl (PBS) chloride for derivatization of 17beta-estradiol (E2) prior to LC-ESI-MS/MS. The product ion spectra of the dansyl and DMIS derivatives were dominated by ions representing derivatization reagent moieties. In contrast, the product ion spectrum of the PS derivative of E2 and, to a lesser extent, the PBS derivative, showed analyte-specific fragment ions. Derivatization with PS chloride was therefore chosen for further investigation. The product ion spectrum of the PS derivative of E2 showed intense ions at m/z 272, assigned to the radical E2 cation, and at m/z 350, attributed to the loss of SO(2) from the [M+H](+) ion. Third-stage mass spectrometry of the PS derivative of E2 with isolation and collisional activation of the m/z 272 ion resulted in steroid C and D ring cleavages analogous to those observed in electron ionization mass spectrometry. The product ion spectra of the PS derivatives of estrone, 17alpha-ethinylestradiol, equilin, and equilenin showed similar estrogen-specific ions. Using derivatization with PS chloride, we developed an LC-ESI-MS/MS method with multiple reaction monitoring of primary and confirmatory precursor-to-product ion transitions for the determination of E2 in serum. 相似文献

VP16 was submitted to oxidation catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and H2O2 in phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). The product of the reaction, which has a high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) retention time different from the previously known metabolites of VP16, was identified as 1,2,3,4-tetradehydro-VP16 by 1H-NMR and mass spectrometry (MS) analysis. It was found to result from the loss of four hydrogens and the formation of an aromatic ring (ring C of VP16). This new product retains, in the 4' position of the E ring of VP16, the hydroxy group which is crucial for the antitumoral activity of podophyllotoxin derivatives. The reaction was linear in a wide range of VP16 concentrations and was dependent on the concomitant presence of peroxidase and H2O2. 相似文献

Applicability of negative ion fast atom bombardment (FAB)-tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) was examined in trace mixture analyses and structural assignments of some isoprenoid diphosphates. Negative ion FAB-MS spectra using a glycerol matrix of these isoprenoid diphosphates showed predominantly molecular ions (M-H)- together with fragment ions at m/z 177 (H3P2O7)-, 176 (H2P2O7)-, 159 (HP2O6)-, and 79 (PO3)- which were characteristic of the diphosphate ester moiety. The molecular ions did not overlap with peaks arising from any impurities even when crude sample such as butanol extracts from enzymatic reaction mixtures were directly analyzed without any purification. Moreover, collisionally activated dissociation spectra of the molecular ion showed many structurally significant fragment ions which enabled us to elucidate the structures of such irregular alkyl chain moieties as those having a homoisoprenoid skeleton or substituted structures. These studies indicate that negative ion FAB-MS/MS is a simple and useful technique for trace mixture analysis and structure elucidation of isoprenoid diphosphates. 相似文献

A liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS) with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) for the quantification of ergosterol, lanosterol, and squalene was developed to evaluate the combination effects of phenolic compounds with fluconazole on ergosterol biosynthesis in Candida albicans. The three analytes were separated by a column of C18 and were quantified without interference with each other using positive mode tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). Molecular ions of ergosterol and lanosterol were detected as the [M+H-H2O]+ ion species at m/z 380 and 410, whereas squalene appeared as the [M+H]+ ion species at m/z 412. On fragmentation of ergosterol, lanosterol, and squalene, the product ions at m/z 69, 149, and 109, respectively, were present as major fragments. These product ions were used for the quantification of them in multiple reaction monitoring acquisition mode. The relationship between signal intensity and the analytes' concentration was linear over the concentration range of 0.05-10 microg/ml. Following the treatment of C. albicans with fluconazole in combination with albicanyl caffeate, resveratrol, and 3,4'-difluorostilbene, respectively, the content of ergosterol in both the sensitive and resistant C. albicans showed depletion, whereas the squalene showed accumulation especially in the sensitive isolates determined with the method developed. 相似文献

Horseradish peroxidase in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (HRP/H2O2) oxidizes a carcinogenic non-aminoazo dye, 1-phenylazo-2-hydroxynaphthalene (Sudan I) to the ultimate carcinogen, which binds to calf thymus DNA. The principal product of Sudan I oxidation by the HRP/H2O2 system is the benzenediazonium ion. Minor products are hydroxy derivatives of Sudan I, in which the aromatic rings are hydroxylated. The principal oxidative product (the benzenediazonium ion) is responsible for the carcinogenicity of Sudan I, because this ion, formed from this azo dye, binds to DNA. 相似文献

Combined multidimensional liquid chromatography and electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry was employed to analyse
platinated tryptic peptides from Escherichia coli cells treated with the anticancer drug cis-[PtCl2(NH3)2] at pH 7.0. Prerequisites for the LC/LC/MS/MS analysis of protein targets that are fulfilled by cisplatin are (a) that the
original protein binding sites have a high kinetic stability over the range 2.3 < pH < 8.5, and (b) that the metal fragment
remains coordinated to a significant number of b+ and y+ peptide ions under MS/MS fragmentation conditions. Matching the MS/MS spectra of the platinated tryptic peptides to sequences
of proteins in the E. coli database enabled the identification of 31 protein targets for cisplatin. Whereas six of these are high-abundance enzymes
and ribosomal proteins in E. coli cells, five low-abundance DNA-binding proteins were also identified as specific targets. These include the DNA mismatch repair
protein mutS, the DNA helicase II (uvrD) and topoisomerase I (top1). Two efflux proteins (acrD, mdtA), the redox regulator
thioredoxin 1 (thiO) and the external filament-like type-1 fimbrial protein A chain (fimA1) were also characterised as specific
cisplatin-binding proteins. Kinetically favoured carboxylate (D, E) and hydroxy (S, T, Y) O atoms were identified as the Pt
coordination sites in 18 proteins and methionyl S atoms in 9 proteins. 相似文献

Characterization of cisplatin adducts of oligonucleotides by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry
The products of the reaction of the antitumor drug cisplatin (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II)) with four oligonucleotide tetramers, d(GpCpGpC), d(GpGpCpC), d(TpGpApT), and d(TpGpCpT), were separated by gel permeation chromatography and characterized by negative- and positive-ion fast atom bombardment (FAB) mass spectrometry. Fragment ions indicating the oligonucleotide sequence and the position of cisplatin binding were observed in MS/MS spectra following collisional activation and B/E-linked scanning. Positive-ion FAB MS/MS spectra were characterized by platinum-containing product ions. Nonplatinated sequence ions and internal fragment ions were present primarily in the negative-ion spectra. The most prominent fragment ions containing platinum were [HB2.Pt.B3H]+ and [HB1.Pt.B2H]+, where B1, B2, and B3 were bases in the oligonucleotide tetramer, one of which was usually guanine. Both singly and doubly charged platinum complexes were observed, probably indicating reduction of Pt(II) during the FAB ionization process. The location of the platinum complex bound to each oligonucleotide sequence could be determined, and the binding sites observed by mass spectrometry were similar to those previously determined by other methods. FAB ionization with collisional activation and MS/MS analysis could serve as a new method for structural analysis of platinated oligonucleotides. 相似文献

When cultured in a marine solid medium, a strain of Aspergillus fumigatus (Fresenius) isolated from a shellfish-farming area in the Loire estuary (France) produced a highly cytotoxic exudate. To identify the origin of this activity, a cytotoxicity test on KB cells was used to monitor the purification of the exudate, together with electrospray/ion trap/mass spectrometry (ESI/IT/MS(n)) to detect and identify the toxic compound. After three purification stages, a comparison of fullscan analyses of the last six fractions showed that a monocharged compound at m/z 349 was present only in the active fraction, corresponding to the sodium adduct of gliotoxin [C(13)H(14)N(2)O(4)S(2)+Na](+). Isotopic distribution determination showed that the m/z 349 product possessed two sulphur atoms and multi-stage fragmentation confirmed the hypothesis. MS/MS analysis exhibited the characteristic gliotoxin loss of the disulphide intracyclic bridge. MS(3) analysis revealed four main ions and confirmed the identity of the m/z 349 ion. This study points out that the combined use of a KB cells bioassay and ESI/IT/MS(n) allows a fast and very specific detection and elucidation of unidentified cytotoxic products in natural samples. This method does not require total purification, and it allowed us to report the first detection of gliotoxin production in marine conditions. 相似文献

Mass spectrometry of disaccharides in the negative-ion mode frequently generates product anions of m/z 221. With glucose-containing disaccharides, dissociation of isolated m/z 221 product ions in a Paul trap yielded mass spectra that easily differentiated between both anomeric configurations and ring forms of the ions. These ions were shown to be glucosyl-glycolaldehydes through chemical synthesis of their standards. By labeling the reducing carbonyl oxygen of disaccharides with 18O to mass discriminate between monosaccharides, it was established that the m/z 221 ions are comprised solely of an intact nonreducing sugar with a two-carbon aglycon derived from the reducing sugar, regardless of the disaccharide linkage position. This enabled the anomeric configuration and ring form of the ion to be assigned and the location of the ion to the nonreducing side of a glycosidic linkage to be ascertained. Detailed studies of experimental factors necessary for reproducibility in a Paul trap demonstrated that the unique dissociation patterns that discriminate between the isomeric m/z 221 ions could be obtained from month-to-month in conjunction with an internal energy-input calibrant ion that ensures reproducible energy deposition into isolated m/z 221 ions. In addition, MS/MS fragmentation patterns of disaccharide m/z 341 anions in a Paul trap enabled linkage positions to be assigned, as has been previously reported with other types of mass spectrometers. 相似文献

Heating of a nano-electrospray ionization (nanoESI) source can improve the dissociation efficiency of collisionally induced dissociation (CID) methods, such as nozzle-skimmer CID (NS-CID) and infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD), for large biomolecule fragmentation. A metal nanoESI emitter was used due to its resistance to heating above 250 degrees C. This novel method for the dissociation of large biomolecular ions is termed "heat-assisted NS-CID" (HANS-CID) or "heat-assisted IRMPD" (HA-IRMPD). Multiple charged nonreduced protein ions (8.6 Da ubiquitin, 14 kDa lysozyme, and 67 kDa bovine serum albumin) were directly dissociated by HANS-CID and HA-IRMPD to effectively yield fragment ions that could be assigned. The fragment ions of ubiquitin by HANS-CID can be analyzed by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) using sustained off-resonance irradiation CID (SORI-CID) and IRMPD. In addition, a native large protein, immunoglobulin G (IgG, 150 kDa), was efficiently dissociated by HA-IRMPD. The product ions that were obtained reflected the domain structure of IgG. However, these product ions of IgG and lysozyme were not dissociated by MS/MS using the same heating energetic methods such as IRMPD and SORI-CID. 相似文献

The 1H NMR chemical shifts, vicinal coupling constants, temperature coefficients, and exchange rates of the hydroxy protons of a Lewis b tetrasaccharide derivative, alpha-L-Fucp-(1 --> 2)-beta-D-Galp-(1 --> 3)[alpha-L-Fucp-(1 --> 4)]-beta-D-GlcpNAc-1-O(CH2)2NHCOCHCH2, have been measured in aqueous solution. The data did not show any evidence for persistent hydrogen bonds participating in the stabilization of the structure. While most of the hydroxy proton signals have chemical shifts similar to those of the corresponding methyl glycosides, four of them, O(3)H, O(4)H, and O(6)H of Galp, and O(2)H of the Fucp linked to GlcpNAc, exhibit large upfield shifts. This shielding effect has been attributed to the orientation of the hydroxy protons toward the amphiphilic region constituted by the hydroxy groups of the Galp residue and mainly the ring and methyl hydrogens of the Fucp unit attached to the GlcpNAc. The close face to face stacking interaction between the Fucp linked to the GlcpNAc and the Galp residues, as well as the steric interaction between the Fucp linked to the Galp and the GlcpNAc are confirmed by the additional inter-residue NOEs of the exchangeable protons in sugar units which are not directly connected. 相似文献

Characterization and direct quantitation of cerebroside molecular species from lipid extracts by shotgun lipidomics 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
By using shotgun lipidomics based on the separation of lipid classes in the electrospray ion source (intrasource separation) and two-dimensional (2D) MS techniques (Han, X., and R. W. Gross. 2004. Shotgun lipidomics: electrospray ionization mass spectrometric analysis and quantitation of the cellular lipidomes directly from crude extracts of biological samples. Mass Spectrom. Rev. First published on June 18, 2004; doi: 10.1002/mas.20023, In press), individual molecular species of most major and many minor lipid classes can be quantitated directly from biological lipid extracts. Herein, we extended shotgun lipidomics to the characterization and quantitation of cerebroside molecular species in biological samples. By exploiting the differential fragmentation patterns of chlorine adducts using electrospray ionization (ESI) tandem mass spectrometry, hydroxy and nonhydroxy cerebroside species are readily identified. The hexose (either galactose or glucose) moiety of a cerebroside species can be distinguished by examination of the peak intensity ratio of its product ions at m/z 179 and 89 (i.e., 0.74 +/- 0.10 and 4.8 +/- 0.7 for galactose- and glucose-containing cerebroside species, respectively). Quantitation of cerebroside molecular species (as little as 10 fmol) from chloroform extracts of brain tissue samples was directly conducted by 2D ESI/MS after correction for differences in (13)C-isotopomer intensities. This method was demonstrated to have a greater than 1,000-fold linear dynamic range in the low concentration region; therefore, it should have a wide range of applications in studies of the cellular sphingolipid lipidome. 相似文献

Rhodococcus sp. strain DN22 can convert hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) to nitrite, but information on degradation products or the fate of carbon is not known. The present study describes aerobic biodegradation of RDX (175 microM) when used as an N source for strain DN22. RDX was converted to nitrite (NO(2)(-)) (30%), nitrous oxide (N(2)O) (3.2%), ammonia (10%), and formaldehyde (HCHO) (27%), which later converted to carbon dioxide. In experiments with ring-labeled [(15)N]-RDX, gas chromatographic/mass spectrophotometric (GC/MS) analysis revealed N(2)O with two molecular mass ions: one at 44 Da, corresponding to (14)N(14)NO, and the second at 45 Da, corresponding to (15)N(14)NO. The nonlabeled N(2)O could be formed only from -NO(2), whereas the (15)N-labeled one was presumed to originate from a nitramine group ((15)N-(14)NO(2)) in RDX. Liquid chromatographic (LC)-MS electrospray analyses indicated the formation of a dead end product with a deprotonated molecular mass ion [M-H] at 118 Da. High-resolution MS indicated a molecular formula of C(2)H(5)N(3)O(3). When the experiment was repeated with ring-labeled [(15)N]-RDX, the [M-H] appeared at 120 Da, indicating that two of the three N atoms in the metabolite originated from the ring in RDX. When [U-(14)C]-RDX was used in the experiment, 64% of the original radioactivity in RDX incorporated into the metabolite with a molecular weight (MW) of 119 (high-pressure LC/radioactivity) and 30% in (14)CO(2) (mineralization) after 4 days of incubation, suggesting that one of the carbon atoms in RDX was converted to CO(2) and the other two were incorporated in the ring cleavage product with an MW of 119. Based on the above stoichiometry, we propose a degradation pathway for RDX based on initial denitration followed by ring cleavage to formaldehyde and the dead end product with an MW of 119. 相似文献

The hydroxyl radical has been spin trapped in microsomal and purified NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase systems in the presence of adriamycin, daunomycin and mitomycin C. The presence of a lag period in quinone-stimulated spin-adduct formation is associated with oxygen removal upon its reduction to H2O2. The hydroxy radical generation has been stimulated by the Fe-EDTA complex and completely inhibited by catalase. The mechanism of redox transformations of anthracyclines in a microsomal system has been proposed The single electron reduced quinone-containing anticancer antibiotics play the following roles: (i) they reduce oxygen to H2O2 and (ii) they reduce the ferric ions necessary for H2O2 decomposition with hydroxyl radical formation. 相似文献

AT1G78690, a gene found in Arabidopsis thaliana, has been reported to encode a N-acyltransferase that transfers an acyl chain from acyl-CoA to the headgroup of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) to form N-acylphosphatidylethanolamine (N-acyl-PE). Our investigation suggests that At1g78690p is not a PE-dependent N-acyltransferase but is instead a lysoglycerophospholipid O-acyltransferase. We overexpressed AT1G78690 in Escherichia coli, extracted the cellular lipids, and identified the accumulating glycerophospholipid as acylphosphatidylglycerol (acyl-PG). Electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) analysis yielded [M - H](-) ions, corresponding by exact mass to acyl-PG rather than N-acyl-PE. Collision-induced dissociation mass spectrometry (MS/MS) yielded product ions consistent with acyl-PG. In addition, in vitro enzyme assays using both (32)P- and (14)C-radiolabeled substrates showed that AT1G78690 acylates 1-acyllysophosphatidylethanolamine (1-acyllyso-PE) and 1-acyllysophosphatidylglycerol (1-acyllyso-PG), but not PE or phosphatidylglycerol (PG), to form a diacylated product that co-migrates with PE and PG, respectively. We analyzed the diacylated product formed by AT1G78690 using a combination of base hydrolysis, phospholipase D treatment, ESI-MS, and MS/MS to show that AT1G78690 acylates the sn-2-position of 1-acyllyso-PE and 1-acyllyso-PG. 相似文献

Three sulfated rhamno-oligosaccharides, designated O1, O2 and O3, were obtained by mild acid hydrolysis of the sulfated rhamnan and purified by gel-permeation chromatography. On the basis of one- and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (1D, 2D NMR) spectroscopic analyses, the oligosaccharide O1 was characterized to be α-l-Rhap-(2SO4)-(1→3)-α-l-Rhap. The fragmentation pattern of the homogeneous disaccharide in the product ion spectra was recognized by negative-ion electrospray tandem mass spectrometry with collision-induced dissociation (ES-CID MS/MS). With the principles established, the sequences of the oligosaccharides O2 and O3 were deduced to be α-l-Rhap-(2SO4)-(1→3)-α-l-Rhap-(1→3)-α-l-Rhap, and α-l-Rhap-(2SO4)-(1→3)-α-l-Rhap-(1→3)-α-l-Rhap-(1→3)-α-l-Rhap (2SO(4)), respectively. The investigation demonstrated that the sulfated rhamnan-derived oligosaccharides were novel sulfated oligosaccharides different from those of other polysaccharides-degraded from algae, and it could be possible to determine the sequence of the sulfated rhamno-oligosaccharides directly from the glycosidic cleavage fragmentation in the product ion spectra. 相似文献
