چکیده

α-Cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid (CHCA), an organic matrix molecule for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry, was adsorbed to NH4 (+)-type zeolite surface, and this new matrix was used for the detection of low-molecular-weight compounds. It was found that this matrix could simplify the mass spectrum in the low-molecular-weight region and prevent interference from fragments and alkali metal ion adducted species. CHCA adsorbed to NH4 (+)-type ZSM5 zeolite (CHCA/NH4ZSM5) was used to measure atropine and aconitine, two toxic alkaloids in plants. In addition, CHCA/NH4ZSM5 enabled us to detect phosphorylated peptides; peaks of the protonated peptides had higher intensities than the peaks observed using CHCA only.

Derivatization of phosphorylated peptides with S- and N-nucleophiles for enhanced ionization efficiency in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry.

The identification of phosphorylation sites is essential for a full understanding of the cellular functions of proteins. However, mass spectrometric analysis is often hampered by the low abundance of phosphoproteins, the difficulty of obtaining full sequence coverage by specific proteolysis reactions, and the low ionization efficiency of phosphopeptides compared with their non-phosphorylated an...

Laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry of bioactive substances by using 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone on cation-substituted zeolite.

By using 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone adsorbed to cation-substituted zeolite, laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry for six kinds of bioactive substances was carried out. The compounds, which were usually difficult to observe by conventional matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry, were ionized by cation adduction from the zeolite surface.

Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization/quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometry of peptides. Application to the localization of phosphorylation sites on the P protein from Sendai virus.

The polymerase-associated phosphoprotein (P protein) from Sendai virus, a murine Paramyxovirus, is reported in the literature to be a highly phosphorylated protein. In vitro studies have detected phosphorylation in different regions of the protein, while a single phosphopeptide (identified as the sole phosphorylation) site) was observed using in vivo techniques. In this work, two phosphorylatio...
