The mass spectrometric analysis of the immunodominant epitope region (273-284) of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) glycoprotein D (gD) showed a favoured fission at the Asp-Pro peptide bond. The fast atom bombardment collision induced dissociation (FAB-CID) study of closely related X-Pro peptides documented that neither the length nor the amino acid composition of the peptide has a significant influence on this preferential cleavage. At the same time the DP bond proved to be sensitive to acidic conditions in the course of peptide synthesis. These observations prompted us to compare the chemical and mass spectrometric stability of a new set of nonapeptides related to the 273-284 epitope region of gD, i.e. SALLEDPVG and SALLEXPVG peptides, where X = A, K, I, S, F, E or D, respectively. The chemical stability of these peptides during acidic hydrolysis was investigated by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and the products were identified by ESI-MS and on-line high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS). The mass spectrometric fragmentation and bond stability of the untreated peptide samples were also studied using ESI-MS and liquid secondary ion mass spectrometry (LSIMS). Both the chemical hydrolysis and the mass spectrometric fragmentation showed that the Asp-Pro bond could easily be cleaved, while the KP bond proved to be stable under both circumstances. On the other hand, the XP bond (X = A, I, S, F or E) fragmented easily under the mass spectrometric conditions, but was not sensitive to the acidolysis. 相似文献

The negative ion mass spectrometric characteristics of a series of di- and trisaccharides and the tetrasaccharide stachyose have been studied using fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry. The molecular weight of the compounds can easily be derived from their mass spectra, which all show an abundant [M - H]- ion peak. The application of metastable ion and collisional activation techniques to selected pseudomolecular and fragment ions appears to be appropriate for the determination of the position and anomeric type of linkage in the molecules, and provides information concerning the monosaccharide units involved. Important fragmentation reactions have been traced and reaction mechanisms, supported by deuterium labelling experiments, are proposed. An experiment describing the application of the findings of this study to a glycosphingolipid molecule demonstrates its potential value for biological systems. 相似文献

Summary. The positive ion mass spectrometric behavior of six β-(N-alkyl/arylamino)-α,β-unsaturated carboxylates, α-(1-alkyl/arylaminoethylidene)-γ-lactones, has been studied under electrospray
ionization conditions. Their fragmentation pathways are described and supported by tandem mass spectrometry. The protonated
compounds are apt to eliminate a water, and a water plus a oxacyclopent-2-yne molecule. Some of the compounds show a tendency
to undergo a four-membered ring contraction rearrangement to lose a carbon dioxide. The fragmentation patterns of these compounds
exhibit a strong substituent dependency. 相似文献

Adducts of catechols and histidine, which are produced by reactions of 1,2-quinones and p-quinone methides with histidyl residues in proteins incorporated into the insect exoskeleton, were characterized using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESMS), tandem electrospray mass spectrometry (ESMS-MS, collision-induced dissociation), and ion trap mass spectrometry (ITMS). Compounds examined included adducts obtained from acid hydrolysates of Manduca sexta (tobacco hornworm) pupal cuticle exuviae and products obtained from model reactions under defined conditions. The ESMS and ITMS spectra of 6-(N-3')-histidyldopamine [6-(N-3')-His-DA, pi isomer] isolated from M. sexta cuticle were dominated by a [M + H]+ ion at m/z 308, rather than the expected m/z 307. High-resolution fast atom bombardment MS yielded an empirical formula of C14H18N3O5, which was consistent with this compound being 6-(N-1')-histidyl-2-(3, 4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethanol [6-(N-1')-His-DOPET] instead of a DA adduct. Similar results were obtained when histidyl-catechol compounds linked at C-7 of the catechol were examined; the (N-1') isomer was confirmed as a DA adduct, and the (N-3') isomer identified as an (N-1')-DOPET derivative. Direct MS analysis of unfractionated cuticle hydrolysate revealed intense parent and product ions characteristic of 6- and 7-linked adducts of histidine and DOPET. Mass spectrometric analysis of model adducts synthesized by electrochemical oxidative coupling of N-acetyldopamine (NADA) quinone and N-acetylhistidine (NAcH) identified the point of attachment in the two isomers. A prominent product ion corresponding to loss of CO2 from [M + H]+ of 2-NAcH-NADA confirmed this as being the (N-3') isomer. Loss of (H2O + CO) from 6-NAcH-NADA suggested that this adduct was the (N-1') isomer. The results support the hypothesis that insect cuticle sclerotization involves the formation of C-N cross-links between histidine residues in cuticular proteins, and both ring and side-chain carbons of three catechols: NADA, N-beta-alanyldopamine, and DOPET. 相似文献

In this study we present a method for determination of O-glycosylation sites in glycopeptides, based on partial vapor-phase acid hydrolysis in combination with mass spectrometric analysis. Pentafluoropropionic acid and hydrochloric acid were used for the hydrolysis of glycosylated peptides. The reaction conditions were optimized for efficient polypeptide backbone cleavages with minimal cleavage of glycosidic bonds. The glycosylated residues were identified by mass spectrometric analysis of the hydrolytic cleavage products. Although glycosidic bonds are partially cleaved under acid hydrolysis, the resulting mass spectra allowed unambiguous determination of the glycosylation sites. Examples are shown with mannosyl- and mucin-type glycopeptides. Performing the hydrolysis in vapor eliminates the risk for contamination of the sample with impurities from the reagents, thus allowing analysis of the reaction products without further purification both by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. 相似文献

Structural analysis of choline phospholipids by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry and tandem mass spectrometry 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The structures of intact choline phospholipids were determined by positive and negative ion mode fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry, tandem mass spectrometry, and B2/E and B/E constant linked scan mass spectrometry. The molecular weight of the choline lipid could be clearly determined by the appearance of [M + H]+ or [M + Na]+ in the positive ion mode and triplet ions, e.g., [M - 15]-, [M - 60]-, and [M - 86]-, in the negative ion mode. The structures of the triplet ions were assigned to [M - CH3]-, [M - HN(CH3)3]-, and [M - CH2 = CHN(CH3)3]-, respectively, by the MS/MS of each triplet ion, and the origin of the triplet ions was found as the matrix-ion adduct to the target molecule by using the B2/E linked scan technique. The polar group could be identified by the existence of ions indicating glycerophosphocholine and its cleavage products and by the presence of the triplet ions in the negative ion mode. Positional determination of the distribution of constituent fatty acyl groups was carried out by comparing the intensity of deacylated ions from positions 1 and 2 in the positive ion mode and of the ions produced by MS/MS of the triplet ions. From the mass number of the [RCOO]- ion which appeared in the negative ion mode, the molecular weight and degree of unsaturation of the fatty acyl group were determined. The position of double bond(s) in the acyl group was determined from the MS/MS of the [RCOO]- ion. 相似文献

Pyrolysis mass spectrometry was used to classify and identify strains of Mycobacterium africanum and of M. tuberculosis, M. bovis and M. bovis BCG. The multicharacter mass pyrograms were evaluated by computerized data handling procedures that were suited for classification and identification. The results revealed considerable heterogeneity among the African strains, which was shown to be linked to the geographic distribution of the strains. On the basis of a routine mass spectrometric identification key the African strains were identified without exception as belonging to, what is referred to as the 'Tuberculosis complex' (i.e. the clinically relevant group formed by strains of M. Tuberculosis, M. bovis and M. bovis BCG). Classification of the strains by means of discriminant analysis indicated an intermediate clustering for the majority of the African strains and overlap for some African strains with in particular M. bovis. It was concluded that from the mass spectrometric data a species status for the group of African strains was not justifiable. 相似文献

This article reviews the analysis of 31 drugs and drug metabolites in human hair by thin-layer chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, gas chromatography—mass spectrometry and mass spectrometry. The most important detection method after chromatographic separation of the components is the mass spectrometry because of its sensitivity and specifity. Washing steps to exclude external contamination, extraction, derivatization, stationary phases, detection modes and detection limits of the mass spectrometric and gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric procedures are presented in five tables. Additionally, a method for a gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric screening procedure is presented. 相似文献

Motivation
In mass spectrometry-based proteomics, XML formats such as mzML and mzXML provide an open and standardized way to store and exchange the raw data (spectra and chromatograms) of mass spectrometric experiments. These file formats are being used by a multitude of open-source and cross-platform tools which allow the proteomics community to access algorithms in a vendor-independent fashion and perform transparent and reproducible data analysis. Recent improvements in mass spectrometry instrumentation have increased the data size produced in a single LC-MS/MS measurement and put substantial strain on open-source tools, particularly those that are not equipped to deal with XML data files that reach dozens of gigabytes in size.Results
Here we present a fast and versatile parsing library for mass spectrometric XML formats available in C++ and Python, based on the mature OpenMS software framework. Our library implements an API for obtaining spectra and chromatograms under memory constraints using random access or sequential access functions, allowing users to process datasets that are much larger than system memory. For fast access to the raw data structures, small XML files can also be completely loaded into memory. In addition, we have improved the parsing speed of the core mzML module by over 4-fold (compared to OpenMS 1.11), making our library suitable for a wide variety of algorithms that need fast access to dozens of gigabytes of raw mass spectrometric data.Availability
Our C++ and Python implementations are available for the Linux, Mac, and Windows operating systems. All proposed modifications to the OpenMS code have been merged into the OpenMS mainline codebase and are available to the community at https://github.com/OpenMS/OpenMS. 相似文献10.
1. Maximum heart mitochondrial ATPase activity is displayed in the presence of an ATP/Mg++ ratio of 0.6--1.2. Under these conditions, mercury ions inhibit ATPase activity of both the mitochondria and the isolated enzyme. In both cases, inhibition occurs within concentration limits of 1--1.5X10(-4) M. 2. The inhibitory effect of free Hg++ ions can be abolished by converting them to a complex with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid [EDTA]. 3. The inhibitory effect of Hg++ ions on mitochondrial ATPase can be attributed to their nonspecific action on functional groups of the active centre or to breakdown of the quaternary structure of the protein molecule of the enzyme. 相似文献

New two-component systems using quaternary ammonium or phosphonium salts as a co-matrix have been developed for the analysis of acidic carbohydrates by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS). In the analysis of the sodium salt of heparin disaccharide I-S, the combination of 2-amino-5-nitropyridine with tetraphenylphosphonium bromide gave the best result. In the analysis of gangliosides containing the sialic acid moiety, the combination of 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone with dimethyldipalmitylammonium bromide was determined to be the system of choice. Under optimum conditions all acidic carbohydrates gave molecular ions in the form of [M(Q(n))-Q]-, where M(Q(n)) is the molecular mass of a molecule containing n molecules of quaternary ions as salt. 相似文献

A novel derivatization method employing 1,2-dimethylimidazole-4-sulfonyl chloride (DMISC) to improve the mass spectrometric response for phenolic compounds in liquid chromatography electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS) is described. Several environmentally relevant compounds, including chloro-, aryl- and alkylphenols, steroidal estrogens, and hydroxy-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (OHPAHs), were selected to evaluate this technique. A facile derivatization procedure employing DMISC results in dimethylimidazolesulfonyl (DMIS) derivatives that are stable in aqueous solution. These DMIS derivatives produced intense [M+H](+) ions in positive-ion LC-ESI-MS. The product ion spectra of the [M+H](+) ions of simple phenols were dominated by ions representing the DMIS and dimethylimidazole moieties, whereas product ion spectra of the DMIS derivatives of OHPAHs with three or more fused aromatic rings showed prominent ArO(+) ions, the relative intensity of which increased with the number of rings. The DMIS derivatives of the selected phenolic compounds showed excellent chromatographic properties. To substantiate the utility of derivatization with DMISC, an analytical method employing enzyme hydrolysis, solid phase extraction, derivatization with DMISC, and analysis by LC-ESI-MS/MS with multiple reaction monitoring for determination in human urine of 1-hydroxypyrene, a widely used biomarker for the assessment of human exposure to PAHs, was developed and validated. 相似文献

Fragmentation of antibiotics daunorubicin, carminomycin, doxorubicin and their semisynthetic analogues under conditions of the new mass spectrometry method ERIAD is discussed. Signals of protonated molecular ion (M + H)+ and ions of fragments are present in all the mass spectra. The results are compared with literary data obtained by means of other (EI and FAB MS) mass spectrometry methods. 相似文献

A discharge-assisted thermospray liquid chromatography/mass spectrometric method for the determination of serum glucose was studied. Isotope dilution technique was used with uniformly labelled (13C6) glucose as an internal standard. Successful liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry was achieved by post-column addition of aqueous ammonium acetate to the mobile phase. Quantification was performed by measuring the peak intensity ratios of the unlabelled and labelled [M + NH4]+ ions. Analytical results using the National Institute of Standards and Technology standard reference material serum showed satisfactory agreement with the certified value, and a relative standard deviation of about 1% was obtained. 相似文献

The polymerization of 2'deoxy-2'-fluoro-cytidine-diphosphate (dCflDP) by polynucleotide phosphorylase is barely detectable in the presence of Mg++ under usual experimental conditions for polymerization of nucleoside diphosphates. High concentrations of enzyme have to be used to accomplish the synthesis. Mn++ is a better activator than Mg++ for the reaction. cCflDP inhibits the polymerization of CDP and has a Km=8.8X10-3M, six times higher than CDP.- The polymer, poly (dCfl), ressembles in many respects poly(C), but not poly(dC): the acid selfstructure forms at similar pK's; interaction with poly(I) yields a 1:1 complex the CD spectrum of which is similar to that of poly(I).poly(C). Finally, the Tm's of poly(I).poly(dCfl) are comparable to those of poly(I).poly(C). 相似文献

The primary structure of mouse interleukin-3 (IL-3) expressed by recombinant baculovirus-infected silkworm (Bombyx mori) larvae was analyzed by subjecting isolated IL-3 derived peptides to liquid secondary ion mass spectrometry. Two species of IL-3 were isolated from the silkworm hemolymph by reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography. The major component has M(r)20-22 x 10(3) as determined by SDS-PAGE. Liquid secondary ion mass spectrometric analysis was carried out on the reduced tryptic and endopeptidase lysyl-C peptides of glycosylated and deglycosylated IL-3. These studies provided evidence that (1) Asn-16 is heterogeneously glycosylated with four different oligosaccharides, (2) Asn-86 is either nonglycosylated or has attached to it one oligosaccharide, (3) the N-glycosylation sites Asn-44 and Asn-51 are not glycosylated, and (4) there is no O-glycosylation. Liquid secondary ion mass spectrometric analysis of the unreduced tryptic peptides provided evidence for disulfide linkages between Cys-140 and Cys-79 or Cys-80 and between Cys-17 and Cys-79 or Cys-80. In comparison to the major component, a minor IL-3 species (M(r) 17-19 x 10(3) by SDS-PAGE) isolated from the hemolymph showed no difference with respect to the glycosylation pattern or the disulfide linkages, but it was cleaved between Ala-127 and Ser-128, and only a disulfide linkage between Cys-140 and Cys-79 or Cys-80 held the molecule together.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Rapid characterization of 23 pregnane-type steroidal alkaloids was studied using a positive ion electrospray ionization quadropole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI-QqTOF-MS/MS) hybrid instrument. ESI-QqTOF-MS (positive ion mode) showed the presence of the protonated molecules [M+H](+) which through low-energy collision-induced dissociation tandem mass spectrometric (CID-MS/MS) analysis showed the characteristic loss of dimethylamine moiety [M+H-45](+) followed by the sequential lossess of attached substituents. Steroidal alkaloids having tigloyl or senecioyl group at C-3 produced diagnostic fragment ions at m/z 100 and 83. Our study also demonstrates the influence of unsaturation, and number and nature of substitutents on product ion abundance and fragment ions. Moreover, the generalization of the fragmentation pattern was linked with the structural features in steroidal skeleton. This strategy was successfully applied in LC-ESI-QqTOF-MS/MS analysis of Sarcococca coriacea extract to investigate and characterize pregnane-type steroidal alkaloids in complex mixture. 相似文献

The primary structures of the O-glycosidically linked oligosaccharides isolated from glycoproteins GP I and GP II of Fusarium sp. M7-1 were established. The oligosaccharides released by alkaline borohydride treatment from the glycoproteins were purified by Bio-Gel P-4 and HPLC. This approach resulted in one monosaccharide and seven oligosaccharides. Their primary structures were resolved mainly by NMR spectrometry in combination with methylation mass spectrometry and fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry. The following structures have been determined. [formula: see text]. 相似文献

It is now possible to obtain sequence information from gel-separated proteins by mass spectrometry at levels too low for conventional approaches. Usually this tandem mass spectrometric data are used for database searches with the aim of identifying the corresponding gene. Recently it has been shown that long and accurate amino acid sequences can be obtained which are sufficient for PCR-based strategies to clone the corresponding gene [Wilm et al. (1996), Nature
379, 466–469]. More than eight proteins have now been cloned based on that method. In many more cases the sequence information identified homologous proteins. Issues involved in cloning by mass spectrometric sequence information are discussed, as are two case studies. These results clearly establish mass spectrometry as a viable tool not only for the database identification of proteins, but also for the de novo sequencing of gel-separated proteins at the low-picomole to femtomole level. 相似文献

A trypsin-resistant core peptide of recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) was isolated and analyzed by high-energy Cs+ liquid secondary-ion (LSI) mass spectrometric analysis. This analysis provided successful detection of the high-mass disulfide-linked core peptide as well as information confirming the existence of disulfide pairing. Similarly, LSI mass spectrometric analysis of the peptide fragments isolated chromatographically from a Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease digest of rhGM-CSF provided rapid confirmation of the cDNA-derived sequence and determination of the existing disulfide bonds between cysteine residues 54-96 and 88-121. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry was employed to measure the molecular weight of the intact protein and to determine the number of the disulfide bonds in the protein molecule by comparative analysis of the protein before and after reduction with beta-mercaptoethanol. 相似文献
