Eleven dahlein peptides are present in the skin secretion of the Australian aquatic frog Litoria dahlii. All peptides have been sequenced using a combination of electrospray mass spectrometry (ES-MS) and Lys-C digestion/MS, with each sequence confirmed by automated Edman sequencing. The 13-residue dahlein 1 peptides (e.g. dahlein 1.1 GLFDIIKNIVSTL-NH(2)) exhibit weak wide-spectrum antimicrobial activity but no significant activity in the anticancer testing program of the National Cancer Institute (Washington). There are no potent antimicrobial peptides present in the glandular secretion, but the dahleins 5 strongly inhibit the formation of NO by neuronal nitric oxide synthase (e.g. dahlein 5.1 GLLGSIGNAIGAFIANKLKP-OH). 相似文献

Electron detachment dissociation (EDD) is an emerging mass spectrometry (MS) technique for the primary structure analysis of peptides, carbohydrates, and oligonucleotides. Herein, we explore the potential of EDD for sequencing of proteins of up to 147 amino acid residues by using top-down MS. Sequence coverage ranged from 72% for Melittin, which lacks carboxylic acid functionalities, to 19% for an acidic 147-residue protein, to 12% for Ferredoxin, which showed unusual backbone fragmentation next to cysteine residues. A limiting factor for protein sequencing by EDD is the facile loss of small molecules from amino acid side chains, in particular CO(2). Based on the types of fragments observed and fragmentation patterns found, we propose detailed mechanisms for protein backbone cleavage and side chain dissociation in EDD. The insights from this study should further the development of EDD for top-down MS of acidic proteins. 相似文献

A series of synthetic peptides (3-15 residues), C-terminally derivatized with 4-aminonaphthalenesulfonic acid (ansa), have been analyzed on a hybrid magnetic sector-orthogonal acceleration time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometer, fitted with a nano-electrospray (nano-ES) interface. Deprotonated molecules generated by negative-ion ES were subjected to collision-induced dissociation (CID) using either methane or xenon as the collision gas, at a collision energy of 400 eV (laboratory frame of reference). As a consequence of charge localization on the sulfonate group, only C-terminal fragment ions were formed, presumably by charge-remote fragmentation mechanisms. Interpretable CID spectra were obtained from fmol amounts of the small peptides (up to 6 residues), whereas low pmol amounts were required for the larger peptides. CID spectra were also recorded of derivatized, previously noncharacterised peptides obtained by proteolysis of cytosolic hamster liver aldehyde dehydrogenase. Interpretation of these CID spectra was based on rules established for the fragmentation of the synthetic peptides. This study shows that derivatization with ansa may be useful in the de novo sequencing of peptides. 相似文献

Mass spectrometric methods, including matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS), on-line liquid chromatography/electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS), and nanospray ionisation/hybrid quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (nanoESI-QqTOFMS), were applied to characterize by mass fingerprinting the venom of the French Guyanese tarantula Theraphosa leblondi. Of these techniques direct nanoESI-QqTOFMS, which allowed the detection of 65 protonated molecules with high mass accuracy, appeared to give the best results. Three major peptides, TlTx1, TlTx2 and TlTx3, were sequenced using a combination of nanoESI-MS/MS and enzyme digestion/MS and MS/MS experiments. Each sequence was confirmed by automated Edman sequencing. In patch-clamp experiments these peptides were found to have a specific inhibitory effect on the voltage-dependent potassium channel, Kv4.2. 相似文献

We have developed a method for protein identification with peptide mass fingerprinting and sequence tagging using nano liquid chromatography (LC)/Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS). To achieve greater sensitivity, a nanoelectrospray (nano-ES) needle packed with reversed-phase medium was used and connected to the nano-ES ion source of the FTICR mass spectrometer. To obtain peptide sequence tag information, infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) was carried out in nano-LC/FTICR-MS analysis. The analysis involves alternating nano-ES/FTICR-MS and nano-ES/IRMPD-FTICR-MS scans during a single LC run, which provides sets of parent and fragment ion masses of the proteolytic digest. The utility of this alternating-scan nano-LC/IRMPD-FTICR-MS approach was evaluated by using bovine serum albumin as a standard protein. We applied this approach to the protein identification of rat liver diacetyl-reducing enzyme. It was demonstrated that this enzyme was correctly identified as 3-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase by the alternating-scan nano-LC/IRMPD-FTICR-MS approach with accurate peptide mass fingerprinting and peptide sequence tagging. 相似文献

Primary structural determination of N-terminally blocked peptides from the bark of Eucommia ulmoides Oliv by mass spectrometric analysis 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Sequencing of N-terminally blocked proteins/peptides is a challenge since these molecules inhibit processing by Edman degradation. By using high accuracy Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR) tandem mass spectrometry and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS), the primary structures of two novel N-terminally blocked antifungal peptides (EAFP1 and EAFP2), purified from the bark of Eucommia ulmoides Oliv, have been determined. The results show that the high mass accuracy provided by FTICR mass spectrometry is effective to determine the N-terminally blocking group, and can simplify the task of spectral interpretation and improve the precision of sequence determination. The combination of MALDI-TOFMS with carboxyl peptidase Y digestion was used to determine the C-terminal 36- and 27-residue sequences of EAFP1 and EAFP2, respectively, to provide the sequence linkage information for tryptic fragments. Compared with traditional peptide chemistry the advantage of mass spectrometric techniques is their simplicity, speed and sensitivity. 相似文献

We investigated venoms from members of the genus Atheris (Serpentes, Viperidae), namely the rough scale bush viper (Atheris squamigera), the green bush viper (A. chlorechis) and the great lakes bush viper (A. nitschei), using mass spectrometry-based strategies, relying on matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) and electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) with de novo peptide sequencing. We discovered a set of novel peptides with masses in the 2-3 kDa range and containing poly-His and poly-Gly segments (pHpG). Complete primary structural elucidation and confirmation of two sequences by Edman degradation indicated the consensus sequence EDDH(9)GVG(10). Bioinformatic investigations in protein sequence databanks did not show relevant homology with known peptides or proteins. However, a more extensive investigation of data in nucleic acid databases revealed some similarities to the precursor sequences of bradykinin potentiating peptides (BPP) and C-type natriuretic peptides (CNP), agents that are known to affect the cardiovascular system by acting on specific metalloproteases and receptors. The novel pHpG peptides found in Atheris venoms might also act on the cardiovascular system by inhibiting particular metalloproteases, which however remain to be identified. 相似文献

Two highly modified conotoxins from the mollusc Conus textile, epsilon-TxIX and Gla(1)-TxVI, were characterized by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization and electrospray mass spectrometry and also by electrospray ionization tandem and triple mass spectrometry in combination with enzymatic cleavage and chemical modification reactions. The mass spectrometric studies allowed the confirmation of the sequence determined by Edman degradation and assignment of unidentified amino acid residues, among which bromotryptophan residues and an O-glycosylated threonine residue were observed. Methyl esterification was found necessary for the site-specific assignment of the Gla residues in the peptides. 相似文献

Solid-phase synthesis was used to prepare several peptides related to Staphylococcal protein A, including a 58-residue sequence corresponding to the entire B-domain of the protein. These materials were characterized by a combination of fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry and microchemical methods, including Edman degradation and tryptic digestion. The errors identified included incomplete removal of blocking groups, premature chain termination and the dehydration of an aspartic add residue in the sequence. All of these problems would have been extremely difficult to elucidate by conventional techniques of protein chemistry, and demonstrate that mass spectrometry is the method of choice for verifying the structural integrity of the products of solid-phase synthesis. 相似文献

The endogenous peptides of human serum may have regulatory functions, have been associated with physiological states, and
their modifications may reveal some mechanisms of disease. In order to correlate levels of specific peptides with disease
alongside internal standards, the polypeptides must first be reliably extracted and identified. Endogenous blood peptides
can be effectively enriched by precipitation of the serum with organic solvents followed by selective extraction of peptides
using aqueous solutions modified with organic solvents. Polypeptides on filter paper were assayed with Coomasie brilliant
blue binding. The polypeptides were resolved by detergent tricine polyacrylamide electrophoresis and visualized by diamine
silver staining. Peptides in the extracts were collected by C18 and analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization
and liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization–tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) quadrupole time-of-flight MS/MS. Peptides
were resolved as multiple isotopic peaks in MS mode with mass deviation of 0.1 Da or less and similar accuracy for fragments.
The sensitivity of MS and MS/MS analysis was estimated to be in the picomolar range or less. The peptide composition of the
extracts was dependent on solvent formulation. Multiple peptides from apolipoproteins, complement proteins, coagulation factors,
and many others were identified by X!Tandem with high mass accuracy of peptide ions and fragments from collision-induced dissociation.
Many previously unreported posttranslational modifications of peptides including phosphorylations, oxidations, glycosylations,
and others were detected with high mass accuracy and may be of clinical importance. About 4,630 redundant peptides were identified
with 99% confidence separately, and together some 1,251 distinct proteins were identified with 99% confidence or greater using
the Paragon algorithm. 相似文献

Evidence for structural variants of a- and b-type peptide fragment ions using combined ion mobility/mass spectrometry 总被引:5,自引:5,他引:0

Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) of peptides plays a key role in the field of proteomics, and an understanding of the fragmentation mechanisms involved is vital for data interpretation. Not all the fragment ions observed by low-energy collision-induced dissociation of protonated peptides are readily explained by the generally accepted structures for a- and b-ions. The possibility of a macrocyclic structure for b-type ions has been recently proposed. In this study, we have undertaken investigations of linear protonated YAGFL-NH(2), N-acetylated-YAGFL-NH(2), and cyclo-(YAGFL) peptides and their fragments using a combination of ion mobility (IM) separation and mass spectrometry. The use of IM in this work both gives insight into relative structural forms of the ion species and crucial separation of isobaric species. Our study provides compelling evidence for the formation of a stable macrocyclic structure for the b(5) ion generated by fragmentation of protonated linear YAGFL-NH(2). Additionally we demonstrate that the a(4) ion fragment of protonated YAGFL-NH(2) has at least two structures; one of which is attributable to a macrocyclic structure on the basis of its subsequent fragmentation. More generally, this work emphasizes the value of combined IM-MS/MS in probing the detailed fragmentation mechanisms of peptide ions, and illustrates the use of combined ion mobility/collisional activation/mass spectrometry analysis in achieving an effective enhancement of the resolution of the mobility separator. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factors 1 and 2 were purified from porcine plasma. In addition to the determination of their isoelectric points, the primary structures of both proteins were determined, using low microgram quantities of protein, by the versatile combination of time-of-flight plasma desorption mass spectrometry and automated Edman degradation. Porcine insulin-like growth factor 1 was shown to be homologous to both human and bovine proteins; the type 2 growth factor showed one mutation to both human and bovine type 2 proteins. 相似文献

Detection and characterization of methionine oxidation in peptides by collision-induced dissociation and electron capture dissociation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Electron capture dissociation (ECD) and collision-induced dissociation (CID), the two complementary fragmentation techniques, are demonstrated to be effective in the detection and localization of the methionine sulfoxide [Met(O)] residues in peptides using Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR) mass spectrometry. The presence of Met(O) can be easily recognized in the low-energy CID spectrum showing the characteristic loss of methanesulfenic acid (CH(3)SOH, 64 Da) from the side chain of Met(O). The position of Met(O) can then be localized by ECD which is capable of providing extensive peptide backbone fragmentation without detaching the labile Met(O) side chain. We studied CID and ECD of several Met(O)-containing peptides that included the 44-residue human growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF) and the human atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). The distinction and complementarity of the two fragmentation techniques were particularly remarkable in their effects on ANP, a disulfide bond-containing peptide. While the predominant fragmentation pathway in CID of ANP was the loss of CH(3)SOH (64 Da) from the molecular ion, ECD of ANP resulted in many sequence-informative products, including those from cleavages within the disulfide-bonded cyclic structure, to allow for the direct localization of Met(O) without the typical procedures for disulfide bond reduction followed by [bond]SH alkylation. 相似文献

The primary structure of Baculovirus-expressed mouse interleukin-3 produced in infected Bombyx mori larvae was characterized by liquid secondary ion mass spectrometry and 252Cf-plasma desorption mass spectrometry in combination with selected protein microchemical reactions. Interleukin-3 was found to consist of at least two glycoprotein species of ca. 17,000 dalton. Characterization of tryptic and S. aureus V8 protease peptides by Edman degradation combined with plasma desorption mass spectrometry showed that two N-glycosylation sites. Asn-16 and Asn-86, were present. N-Glycan residues were shown by liquid secondary ion mass spectrometry and high-performance liquid chromatography to consist of mannose, fucose, and glucosamine. The presence of galactosamine indicated that O-glycosylated residues were present, in addition to the N-glycosylated residues. Glucose was also present, which indicated incomplete processing of the insect-expressed N-linked oligosaccharides. 相似文献

Phosphorylcholine (PC) substituted biomolecules are wide-spread, highly relevant antigens of parasites, since this small hapten has been found to be a potent immunomodulatory component which allows the establishment of long lasting infections of the host. Structural data, especially of protein bound PC-substituents, are still rare due to the observation that mass spectrometric analyses are mostly hampered by this zwitterionic substituent resulting in low sensitivities and unusual but characteristic fragmentation patterns. Here we investigated the fragmentation behaviour of synthetic PC-substituted peptides by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry and electrospray ionization ion trap mass spectrometry. We could show that the predominant neutral loss of a trimethylamine unit (Hoffmann elimination) leads to cyclic phosphate derivatives which prevent further fragmentation of the peptide backbone by stabilizing the positive charge at this particular side chain. Knowledge of this PC-specific fragmentation might help to identify PC-substituted biomolecules and facilitate their structural analysis. 相似文献

Edman降解是最早建立的一种用于多肽和蛋白质氨基端测序的方法,该方法现在仍被广泛用于生物化学领域。随着高通量蛋白质组学技术的发展和应用,该方法中的异硫氰酸苯酯反应被用于修饰蛋白质氨基端,并用于检测蛋白质水解位点。但还没有异硫氰酸苯酯是否可以修饰其他氨基酸侧链并影响多肽序列分析的研究。为了探究其修饰其他氨基酸的可能性,本文利用基质辅助激光解吸电离飞行时间质谱(MALDI-TOF-MS)和液相色谱-串联质谱(LC-MS/MS)研究了异硫氰酸苯酯对一个模型肽的化学修饰。质谱数据解析后发现在高浓度异硫氰酸苯酯的反应条件下,组氨酸上可以引入一个新的异硫氰酸苯酯修饰位点。这一修饰位点的发现预示着通过改变实验条件或分析方法,可以更准确地利用Edman降解和蛋白质组学技术分析多肽和蛋白质。 相似文献

A new method for determining the amino acid sequence of polypeptides consists in initial partial hydrolysis to yield a complex mixture of oligopeptides. After derivatization to enhance its volatility, the mixture is analyzed by combined gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. The sequence of the polypeptide is established by a computer from the identified oligopeptides. So far polypeptides having up to 40 amino acids have been analyzed by this method. The advantages and disadvantages of the new method compared with the stepwise procedure of the Edman degradation are considered. Since the two methods are based on fundamentally different principles they may prove to be complementary. 相似文献

We report the application of nanoelectrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (nES-MS/MS) and capillary LC/microelectrospray MS/MS (cLC/&mgr;ES-MS/MS) for sequencing sulfonic acid derivatized tryptic peptides. These derivatives were specifically prepared to facilitate low-energy charge-site-initiated fragmentation of C-terminal arginine-containing peptides, and to enhance the selective detection of a single series of y-type fragment ions. Both singly and doubly protonated peptides were analyzed by MS/MS and the results were compared with those from their derivatized counterparts. Model peptides and peptides from tryptic digests of gel-isolated proteins were analyzed. Derivatized singly protonated peptides fragment in the same way by nES-MS/MS as they do by post-source decay matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (PSD-MALDI-MS). They produce fragment ion spectra dominated by y-ions, and the simplified spectra are readily interpreted de novo. Doubly protonated peptides fragment in much the same way as their non-derivatized doubly protonated counterparts. The fragmentation of doubly protonated derivatives is especially useful for sequencing peptides that possess a proline residue near the N-terminus of the molecule. The singly protonated forms of these proline-containing derivatives often show enhanced fragmentation on the N-terminal side of the proline and considerably reduced fragmentation on the C-terminal side. In addition, sulfonic acid derivatization increases the in-source fragmentation of arginine-containing peptides. This could be useful for sequence verification and sequence tagging for use in single stage mass spectrometry. Copyright 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献
