Mass spectrometry of peptides and proteins using digestion by a grape cysteine protease at pH 3

Cysteine protease from grapevine (Vitis vinifera) belongs to those resistant proteins, which survive the process of vinification and can therefore be detected as wine components. Its amino acid sequence shows a homology to other members of the papain family, but the enzyme has only partially been explored so far. In order to get more biochemical information with the help of mass spectrometry (MS), wine proteins were collected by ultrafiltration and separated by gel permeation chromatography. The purified enzyme surprisingly displayed a high molecular mass value of around 200 kDa, indicating a possible oligomeric status and aggregation, as it entered only negligibly the separating 10% gel during polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The isoelectric point (pI) value of 3.6 was determined by chromatofocusing. Matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI)‐MS was employed to evaluate the cleavage specificity and usefulness of the isolated cysteine protease in protein and peptide research. A potential applicability could be anticipated from the efficient digestion performance in volatile ammonium formate buffers at pH 3. Common peptides were digested and the resulting products analyzed by MS/MS sequencing. Then, mixtures of protein standards and extracted barley nuclear proteins were processed in the same way. Grape cysteine protease is nonspecific but shows a certain preference for Arg, Lys, and also Leu residues. Compared with papain, it seems not to require fully the presence of a large hydrophobic residue adjacent to that at the cleavage site. The enzyme is suitable for protein research as it produces peptides of a reasonable length in acidic pH.     

Simultaneous Determination of Selected Veterinary Antibiotics and their Main Metabolites in Fish and Mussel Samples by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with Diode Array-Fluorescence (HPLC-DAD-FLD) Detection

A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for the quantitative determination of 11 antibiotics (drugs) and the main metabolites of five of them in fish tissue and mussel samples were developed, optimized, and validated. The analytes belong to four different classes of antibiotics (sulfonamides, tetracyclines, penicillin, and amphenicols). The analyzed compounds were sulfadiazine and its N⁴-acetylsulfadiazine metabolite; sulfamethazine and its N⁴-acetylsulfamethazine; sulfamerazine and its N⁴-acetylsulfamerazine; sulfamethoxazole; trimetroprim; amoxicillin and its main metabolite amoxicilloic acid; ampicillin and its main metabolite ampicilloic acid; chloramphenicol; thiamphenicol; oxytetracycline; and chlortetracycline. For HPLC analysis, diode array and fluorescence detectors were used. The separation of the analyzed compounds was conducted by means of a C₁₈ (150 mm × 4.6 mm I.D., particle size 5 µm) analytical column with LiChrospher® C₁₈ (4 mm × 4 mm, particle size 5 µm) guard-column. Analyzed drugs were determined within 35 minutes using formic acid 0.1% in water and acetonitrile in gradient elution mode as the mobile phase. The method was applied to the determination of the analytes in tissue of hake (Merluccius merluccius), anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus), mussel (Mytltus sp.), and wedge sole (Solea solea). The proposed method was also evaluated by a laboratory assay consisting of the determination of the targeted analytes in samples of Cyprinus carpio that were previously administered controlled doses of the antibiotics.

Analysis of additive metals in fuel and emission aerosols of diesel vehicles with and without particle traps

Fuel additives used in particle traps have to comply with environmental directives and should not support the formation of additional toxic substances. The emission of metal additives from diesel engines with downstream particle traps has been studied. Aspects of the optimisation of sampling procedure, sample preparation and analysis are described. Exemplary results in form of a mass balance calculation are presented. The results demonstrate the high retention rate of the studied filter system but also possible deposition of additive metals in the engine.     

Antigen retrieval on formaldehyde-fixed paraffin sections: its potential drawbacks and optimization for double immunostaining

It is well known that the major artifact induced by formaldehyde fixation is the masking of tissue antigens due to cross-linking of protein amino acid residues. Recently many antigen retrieval techniques have been devised to unmask the hidden antigen epitopes and recover immunoreactivity. In this study, some practical problems of two common unmasking techniques, i.e. heat-induced epitope retrieval and enzyme digestion have been reviewed in immunostaining of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) on formaldehyde-fixed paraffin-embedded sections. As the heating conditions became more severe, false-positive staining and/or nonspecific background staining occurred. Based on the principle of protein inactivation/denaturation and the possible mechanisms of antigen retrieval, it has been suggested that the antigen retrieval itself can also denature proteins in tissues, just as many other protein inactivation processes. Thus, the total magnitude of protein conformational change caused by the overall unmasking procedure is in practice crucial. To prove this hypothesis and to overcome such undesirable drawbacks after antigen retrieval, a new combination technique of a mild heating condition (microwaved at 80°C for 15–20 min) and pepsin digestion was devised. This technique led to a strong specific immunoreactivity of PCNA, without any undesirable false positive or background staining. The procedure was also adapted for double immunostaining of PCNA together with -actin, bromodeoxyuridine, keratin, type IV collagen and vimentin.
