肽段反相色谱保留时间预测算法及其在蛋白质鉴定中的应用

液相色谱-质谱(LC-MS)联用是当今规模化蛋白质鉴定的主流技术。肽段在反相液相色谱(RPLC)中的保留时间主要是由肽段的理化性质和LC条件(固定相、流动相)决定的。可以通过分析肽段的理化性质,并量化它们对肽段色谱行为的影响来预测保留时间。预测结果可以用于帮助提高蛋白质鉴定的数量和可信度,也可用于肽段的翻译后修饰等研究。现在已有的保留时间预测算法主要有保留系数法和机器学习法两大类,得到的预测保留时间与实际保留时间相关系数可达到0.93。随着色谱和质谱技术的不断发展,肽段色谱行为的稳定性和重现性越来越好,保留时间预测结果也越来越准确。预测肽段保留时间将成为提高蛋白质鉴定结果的重要技术手段之一。

Thermodynamic investigations on shape selective separation behaviors of poly(4-vinylpyridine)-grafted silica for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in both normal-phase and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography

With the successful implementation of poly(4-vinylpyridine)-grafted silica prepared by grafting-from approach (GF-VP(n)) as a stationary phase for the separation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in normal-phase HPLC, this paper describes the chromatographic retention behaviors of PAHs with GF-VP(n) in reversed-phase HPLC. Significantly higher retention factor along with enhanced shape selectivity were observed with GF-VP(n). Thermodynamic study on the retention behaviors of PAHs with GF-VP(n) in normal-phase and reversed-phase HPLC revealed that retention of PAHs was exothermic in both phases. Furthermore, higher entropic contribution was observed in reversed-phase HPLC compared to normal-phase HPLC.     

Retention of nucleic acids in ion‐pair reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography depends not only on base composition but also on base sequence

The study on nucleic acid retention in ion‐pair reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography mainly focuses on size‐dependence, however, other factors influencing retention behaviors have not been comprehensively clarified up to date. In this present work, the retention behaviors of oligonucleotides and double‐stranded DNAs were investigated on silica‐based C₁₈ stationary phase by ion‐pair reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography. It is found that the retention of oligonucleotides was influenced by base composition and base sequence as well as size, and oligonucleotides prone to self‐dimerization have weaker retention than those not prone to self‐dimerization but with the same base composition. However, homo‐oligonucleotides are suitable for the size‐dependent separation as a special case of oligonucleotides. For double‐stranded DNAs, the retention is also influenced by base composition and base sequence, as well as size. This may be attributed to the interaction of exposed bases in major or minor grooves with the hydrophobic alky chains of stationary phase. In addition, no specific influence of guanine and cytosine content was confirmed on retention of double‐stranded DNAs. Notably, the space effect resulted from the stereostructure of nucleic acids also influences the retention behavior in ion‐pair reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography.     

Modeling of retention behavior in capillary electrochromatography from chromatographic and electrophoretic data

A phenomenological approach was presented to describe the retention behaviors of solutes in capillary electrochromatography (CEC). Equations for calculation of the retention time and actual chromatographic retention factor for ionic solutes, weak monoprotic acid and weak monoprotic base were derived, which can be described by two general expressions regardless the charge status of the solute. The general expressions enable calculation of the retention time and retention factor in CEC from chromatographic and electrophoretic data, which were experimentally verified with a variety of compounds and a variety of CEC modes. Based on this approach, the chromatographic retention and the electrophoretic migration in the CEC systems studied were found to be two independent processes. The validity of this approach was also discussed.     

Structural stability–chromatographic retention relationship on exenatide diastereomer separation

In this study, the relationship of the structural stability of peptide diastereomers in elution solvents and their retention behaviors in reversed-phase chromatography (RPC) was examined to provide guidance on the solvent selection for a better separation of peptide diastereomers. We investigated the chromatographic retention behaviors of exenatide, a peptide drug for the treatment of type II diabetes mellitus and its three diastereomers using RPC and implicit molecular dynamics (MD) simulation analysis. Three diastereomers involved in the single serine residue mutation of d-form at the 11th, 32nd, and 39th residues were investigated in this study. Results show that the order of the solution structural stability of exenatide and its diastereomers is consistent with their retention order by 36?% acetonitrile/water elution. The sample loading solvent also affects the retention behaviors of exenatide peptide diastereomers in RPC column. Furthermore, a larger solution conformation energy difference of the critical pair of exenatide and its diastereomer (d-Ser39) at the elution solvent of 32?% tetrahydrofuran/water were obtained by MD simulation, and baseline separation was proved experimentally. In summary, we demonstrated that the solution structural stability–chromatographic retention relationship could be a powerful tool for elution solvent selection in peptide chromatographic purification, especially valuable for the separation of critical pair of diastereomers.

Dependence of chiral recognition on the degree of substitution of cellulose benzoate

A series of cellulose benzoates with different degrees of substitution (DS) were prepared by aminolysis under homogeneous conditions. Using them as a stationary phase, the dependence of the chromatographic chiral recognition of cellulose benzoate (CB) on its DS was studied under normal phase conditions. For most enantiomeric pairs, chiral recognition decreased along with the decrease in DS. However, some enantiomeric pairs were resolved only by CBs carrying unsubstituted hydroxyl groups. Many of the compounds were quite strongly retained by cellulose benzoate with a DS of 2.8. A study of the retention behaviors of simple achiral compounds led us to the conclusion that the change in the retention behaviors by introducing free hydroxyl groups into tribenzoate is not caused by hydrogen bonding including the hydroxyl groups, but by a specific unidentified change.

Photo-response assisted enantiomer separations on an azobenzene-modified gamma-cyclodextrin stationary phase in micro-HPLC.

The photo-responses of the retention and enantioseparation of several optical isomers were evaluated using an azobenzene-modified gamma-cyclodextrin stationary phase (Az gamma-CDSP) in micro-HPLC. UV light irradiation induced a decrease in the retention and the chiral selectivity for N-(3,5-dinitrobenzoyl)-1-phenylethylamine (DNBPEA) and N-(3,5-dinitrobenzoyl)-1-(1-naphtylethyl)amine (DNBNEA), while an increase was induced for dansylphenylalanine (DnsPhe) using a mixture of methanol and aqueous phosphate buffer as the mobile phase. No changes in the retention and the enantiomer separation of benzoin were observed with UV light irradiation. The retention behaviors were recovered by visible-light irradiation. It was speculated that the main factor of the change in the retention behavior was a change in the pi-pi interaction due to the azobenzene moiety of the stationary phase with photo-irradiation. Comparing the retention behavior before and after UV light irradiation, a suitable condition for obtaining a better resolution and enantiomer separation would be chosen using Az gamma-CDSP.     

An abnormal temperature dependence of alkylpyrazines' retention in reversed-phase liquid chromatography

Retention behaviors of pyrazine and alkylpyrazines on various stationary phases in reversed-phase liquid chromatography were examined. An abnormal temperature effect on the retention of alkylpyrazines with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and water was observed when changing the column temperature. On the other hand, no similar trend was found with a methanol-water mobile phase. For all the columns investigated in this work, the above tendency to the temperature-dependence was consistently observed, suggesting that the abnormal temperature effect on the retention of alkylpyrazines could be mainly induced by an acetonitrile-based mobile phase.
