چکیده

Laser-enhanced in-source decay (LEISD) MALDI MS recently proposed for structural analysis of oligosaccharides was used to systematically investigate ISD fragmentation of oligosaccharides, which was found to be mediated by thermal hydrogen radicals from a matrix and underwent a charge-induced process, depending on the nature of the matrix and the structure of an oligosaccharide.

Fragmentation of peptides in MALDI in-source decay mediated by hydrogen radicals.

In-source decay (ISD) in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) shares some similarities with the novel fragmentation technique electron capture dissociation (ECD). In both reactions, the otherwise strong N-C(alpha) bond is cleaved, forming fragment ions of the c and z types, while labile posttranslational modifications are preserved. Therefore, it is tempting to assume that ISD an...

Fragmentation processes of hydrogen-deficient peptide radicals in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization in-source decay mass spectrometry.

The mechanism of in-source decay (ISD) in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) has been described. The MALDI-ISD with an oxidizing matrix is initiated by hydrogen abstraction from peptides to matrix molecules, leading to hydrogen-deficient peptide radicals. Subsequently, the C(α)-C and C(α)-H bonds are cleaved, forming the a•/x fragment pair and [M-2H], respectively. Those reacti...

Alkaline degradation of oligosaccharides coupled with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization Fourier transform mass spectrometry: a method for sequencing oligosaccharides.

A new technique for determining sequence and linkage information of underivatized oligosaccharides is developed using alkaline degradation and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization Fourier transform mass spectrometry (MALDI-FTMS). Alkaline degradation (also known as the "peeling" reaction) is a chemical degradation technique that only cleaves the glycosidic bond at the reducing end by bet...

Atmospheric pressure MALDI Fourier transform mass spectrometry of labile oligosaccharides.

An atmospheric pressure matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (AP MALDI) source coupled to Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT ICR MS) under UV laser and solid matrix conditions has been demonstrated to analyze a variety of labile oligosaccharides including O-linked and N-linked complex glycans released from glycoproteins. Spectra were acquired by both AP MALDI...

MALDI in-source decay, from sequencing to imaging.

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) is now a mature method allowing the identification and, more challenging, the quantification of biopolymers (proteins, nucleic acids, glycans, etc). MALDI spectra show mostly intact singly charged ions. To obtain fragments, the activation of singly charged precursors is necessary, but not efficient above 3.5 kDa, thus making MALDI MS/MS diffic...
