In peptide sequencing experiments involving a single step tandem mass acquisition, leucine and isoleucine are indistinguishable because both are characterized by a 113 Da mass difference from the other peptide fragments in the MS2 spectrum. In this work, we propose a new method to distinguish between these two amino acids in consecutive MSn experiments, exploiting a gas-phase fragmentation of isoleucine that leads to a diagnostic 69 Da ion. We used this method to assess the Leu/Ile residues of several synthetic peptides. The procedure was then tested on a tryptic digest of myoglobin, assigning the correct amino acid in the majority of the peptides. This work was performed with an old and low-resolution instrument, thus demonstrating that our method is suitable for a wide number of ion trap mass spectrometers, not necessarily expensive or up-to-date. 相似文献

Tandem mass spectral library searching is finding increased use as an effective means of determining chemical identity in mass spectrometry-based omics studies. We previously reported on constructing a tandem mass spectral library that includes spectra for multiple precursor ions for each analyte. Here we report our method for expanding this library to include MS2 spectra of fragment ions generated during the ionization process (in-source fragment ions) as well as MS3 and MS4 spectra. These can assist the chemical identification process. A simple density-based clustering algorithm was used to cluster all significant precursor ions from MS1 scans for an analyte acquired during an infusion experiment. The MS2 spectra associated with these precursor ions were grouped into the same precursor clusters. Subsequently, a new top-down hierarchical divisive clustering algorithm was developed for clustering the spectra from fragmentation of ions in each precursor cluster, including the MS2 spectra of the original precursors and of the in-source fragments as well as the MSn spectra. This algorithm starts with all the spectra of one precursor in one cluster and then separates them into sub-clusters of similar spectra based on the fragment patterns. Herein, we describe the algorithms and spectral evaluation methods for extending the library. The new library features were demonstrated by searching the high resolution spectra of E. coli extracts against the extended library, allowing identification of compounds and their in-source fragment ions in a manner that was not possible before. 相似文献

Improved methods for structural analyses of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are required to understand their functional roles in
various biological processes. Major challenges in structural characterization of complex GAG oligosaccharides using liquid
chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) include the accurate determination of the patterns of sulfation due to gas-phase
losses of the sulfate groups upon collisional activation and inefficient on-line separation of positional sulfation isomers
prior to MS/MS analyses. Here, a sequential chemical derivatization procedure including permethylation, desulfation, and acetylation
was demonstrated to enable both on-line LC separation of isomeric mixtures of chondroitin sulfate (CS) oligosaccharides and
accurate determination of sites of sulfation by MS
n
. The derivatized oligosaccharides have sulfate groups replaced with acetyl groups, which are sufficiently stable to survive
MS
n
fragmentation and reflect the original sulfation patterns. A standard reversed-phase LC-MS system with a capillary C18 column
was used for separation, and MS
n
experiments using collision-induced dissociation (CID) were performed. Our results indicate that the combination of this
derivatization strategy and MS
n
methodology enables accurate identification of the sulfation isomers of CS hexasaccharides with either saturated or unsaturated
nonreducing ends. Moreover, derivatized CS hexasaccharide isomer mixtures become separable by LC-MS method due to different
positions of acetyl modifications. 相似文献

Today, it is necessary to identify relevant compounds appearing in discovery and development of new drug substances in the pharmaceutical industry. For that purpose, the measurement of accurate molecular mass and empirical formula calculation is very important for structure elucidation in addition to other available analytical methods. In this work, the identification and confirmation of degradation products in a finished dosage form of the antibiotic drug amoxicillin obtained under stress conditions will be demonstrated. Structure elucidation is performed utilizing liquid chromatography (LC) ion trap MS/MS and MS3 together with accurate mass measurement of the molecular ions and of the collision induced dissociation (CID) fragments by liquid chromatography electro spray ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-TOF). 相似文献

The formation of secondary organic aerosols (SOA) has been investigated intensively during the last two decades in numerous
field and laboratory studies and a general understanding exists about the major particle-phase products. However, recent studies
show that several new product classes, such as esters, peroxides or organosulfates, also have to be considered in order to
understand the detailed chemical mechanisms leading to SOA as well as to predict the aerosol mass loadings. For the identification
and quantification of these three compound classes as well as for carboxylic SOA compounds, liquid chromatography (LC)/mass
spectrometry (MS) is the most appropriate analytical method. In this article we try to summarize briefly the work that has
been done for the determination of SOA-related carboxylic acids and we present new LC/tandem MS results on the characterization
of esters, peroxides and organosulfates. In contrast to earlier work, the mass-spectrometric characterization of the individual
compounds is always based on the comparison with authentic reference compounds. 相似文献

The formation of adducts by reaction of active metabolites of two heterocyclic aromatic amines (NHOH-PhIP and NHOH-IQ) at nucleophilic sites of deoxynucleosides has been studied by LC-MS(n) analyses of the obtained reaction mixtures. Sequential MS(3) experiments were carried out on an ion trap mass spectrometer to gain extensive structural information on each adduct detected in the first MS step. Attribution of ions was supported by accurate mass measurements performed on an Orbitrap mass analyzer. Particular attention was given to ions diagnostic of the linking between the heterocyclic aromatic amine (HAA) and the deoxynucleoside. By this way, the structures of five adducts have been characterized in this study, among which two are new compounds: dG-N7-IQ and dA-N(6)-IQ. No depurinating adduct was found in the reactions investigated therein. As expected, the C8 and N(2) atoms of dG were found as the most reactive sites of deoxynucleosides, resulting in the formation of two different adducts with IQ and one adduct with PhIP. An unusual non-depurinating dG-N7-IQ adduct has been characterized and a mechanism is proposed for its formation on the basis of the reactivity of arylamines. A dA-N(6)-IQ adduct has been identified for the first time in this work, showing that HAAs can generate DNA adducts with bases other than dG. 相似文献

We report here an automated method for the identification of N-oxide functional groups in drug metabolites by using the combination
of liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS
n
) based on ion-molecule reactions and collision-activated dissociation (CAD). Data-dependent acquisition, which has been readily
utilized for metabolite characterization using CAD-based methods, is adapted for use with ion-molecule reaction-based tandem
mass spectrometry by careful choice of select experimental parameters. Two different experiments utilizing ion-molecule reactions
are demonstrated, data-dependent neutral gain MS3 and data-dependent neutral gain pseudo-MS3, both of which generate functional group selective mass spectral data in a single experiment and facilitate increased throughput
in structural elucidation of unknown mixture components. Initial results have been generated by using an LC/MS
n
method based on ion-molecule reactions developed earlier for the identification of the N-oxide functional group in pharmaceutical
samples, a notoriously difficult functional group to identify via CAD alone. Since commercial software and straightforward,
external instrument modification are used, these experiments are readily adaptable to the industrial pharmaceutical laboratory. 相似文献

It is shown that the emission of energetic Auger electrons during formation of the Mossbauer nucleus 57Fe leads not only to the formation of multicharged ion 57Fe n+, but also to the formation of a cloud of several hundred (200–300) ion-electron pairs (H2O+, e ?) around the Fe ion. This cloud is called an Auger blob. Its size (radius) is approximately ~100 Å. Fast radiation-chemical reactions in an Auger blob determine the experimentally observable ratio of yields of final chemically stable states (Fe3+ and Fe2+) of the Mossbauer ion. Knowledge of this ratio is important for an adequate interpretation of the results of Mossbauer emission spectroscopy. Although our assessments relate to iron nuclei in frozen aqueous solutions, they can be easily adjusted for media of other chemical composition. 相似文献

Ab initio, fully relativistic four component theory was used to determine atomic many-body effects for the 4f X-ray photoelectron
spectra (XPS) of U5+ and U4+ cations. Many-body effects were included through the use of configuration interaction (CI) wavefunctions, WF‘s, that allow
the mixing of XPS allowed and XPS forbidden configurations. This work extends our earlier study of the U 4f XPS in that the
orbitals for the final, ionic states of the cations are allowed to relax in the presence of the 4f core-hole. In the earlier
work, orbitals optimized for the initial state were frozen and also used for the final, ionic states. While the main XPS features
are similar in both cases, using relaxed orbitals for the ionic states introduces changes in the multiplet splitting and in
the 4f5/2 and 4f7/2 spin–orbit splitting. The extent of configuration mixing for the U5+ and U4+ final state WF’s is characterized by the magnitude of the intensity lost by the main peaks to satellites. Overall, the use
of relaxed orbitals improves the agreement between the theoretical XPS for the U4+ cation and the experimental measurements for UO2. 相似文献

Facilely synthesized zinc hydroxide nanoparticles by electro-dissolution of zinc sacrificial anodes were investigated for the adsorption of thorium (Th4+), uranium (U4+) and cerium (Ce4+) from aqueous solution. Various operating parameters such as effect of pH, current density, temperature, electrode configuration, and electrode spacing on the adsorption efficiency of Th4+, U4+ and Ce4+ were studied. The results showed that the maximum removal efficiency was achieved for Th4+, U4+ and Ce4+ with zinc as anode and stainless steel as cathode at a current density of 0.2 A/dm2 and pH of 7.0. First- and second-order rate equations were applied to study the adsorption kinetics. The adsorption process follows second order kinetics model with good correlation. The Langmuir, Freundlich adsorption models were applied to describe the equilibrium isotherms and the isotherm constants were determined. The experimental adsorption data were fitted to the Langmuir adsorption model. Thermodynamic parameters such as free energy (ΔG°), enthalpy (ΔH°), and entropy changes (ΔS°) for the adsorption of Th4+, U4+ and Ce4+ were computed to predict the nature of adsorption process. Temperature studies showed that the adsorption was endothermic and spontaneous in nature. 相似文献

Cationic metal ion-coordinated N-diisopropyloxyphosphoryl dipeptides (DIPP-dipeptides) were analyzed by electrospray ionization multistage tandem mass spectrometry
(ESI-MS
n
). Two novel rearrangement reactions with hydroxyl oxygen or carbonyl oxygen migrations were observed in ESI-MS/MS of the
metallic adducts of DIPP-dipeptides, but not for the corresponding protonated DIPP-dipeptides. The possible oxygen migration
mechanisms were elucidated through a combination of MS/MS experiments, isotope (18O, 15N, and 2H) labeling, accurate mass measurements, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations at the B3LYP/6-31 G(d) level. It
was found that lithium and sodium cations catalyze the carbonyl oxygen migration more efficiently than does potassium and
participation through a cyclic phosphoryl intermediate. In addition, dipeptides having a C-terminal hydroxyl or aromatic amino
acid residue show a more favorable rearrangement through carbonyl oxygen migration, which may be due to metal cation stabilization
by the donation of lone pair of the hydroxyl oxygen or aromatic π-electrons of the C-terminal amino acid residue, respectively.
It was further shown that the metal ions, namely lithium, sodium, and potassium cations, could play a novel directing role
for the migration of hydroxyl or carbonyl oxygen in the gas phase. This discovery suggests that interactions between phosphorylated
biomolecules and proteins might involve the assistance of metal ions to coordinate the phosphoryl oxygen and protein side
chains to achieve molecular recognition. 相似文献

Heteroassociation of aromatic antitumor antibiotics daunomycin (DAU) and actinomycin D (AMD) was investigated using 1D and 2D 1H NMR spectroscopy (at 500 MHz) and molecular mechanics procedure with the goal of establishing the mechanism of the combined action of antibiotics in the system AMD-DAU. The experimental data were processed applying a modified statistical and thermodynamic model of the molecules heteroassociation. Proceeding from this model the values were obtained of induced proton chemical shifts, equilibrium constant and thermodynamic parameters of complexing reaction between DAU and AMD. By means of molecular mechanics with the use of X-PLOR software and of the analysis results of the induced proton chemical shifts in the molecules the most probable spatial structure, 1:1, was established for the heterocomplex of DAU and AMD. Heterocomplexes of daunomycin and actinomycin D form due to stacking interaction between the aromatic chromophores with possible additional stabilization of the complexes by an intermolecular hydrogen bond. 相似文献

Measurement of the 3Π-3Π transition of C6H+ in the gas phase near 19486 cm−1 is reported. The experiment was carried out with a supersonic slit-jet expansion discharge using cavity ringdown absorption
spectroscopy. Partly resolved P lines and observation of band heads permitted a rotational contour fit. Spectroscopic constants
in the ground and excited-state were determined. The density of ions being sampled is merely 2×108 cm−3. Broadening of the spectral lines indicates the excited-state lifetime to be ≈100 ps. The electronic transition of HC6H2+ at 26402 cm−1 assumed to be 1A1-X1A1 in C2v symmetry could not be rotationally resolved. 相似文献

Metabolome analysis of human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is challenging because of low abundance of metabolites present in a
small volume of sample. We describe and apply a sensitive isotope labeling LC-MS technique for qualitative analysis of the
CSF metabolome. After a CSF sample is divided into two aliquots, they are labeled by 13C-dansyl and 12C-dansyl chloride, respectively. The differentially labeled aliquots are then mixed and subjected to LC-MS using Fourier-transform
ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR MS). Dansylation offers significant improvement in the performance of chromatography
separation and detection sensitivity. Moreover, peaks detected in the mass spectra can be readily analyzed for ion pair recognition
and database search based on accurate mass and/or retention time information. It is shown that about 14,000 features can be
detected in a 25-min LC-FTICR MS run of a dansyl-labeled CSF sample, from which about 500 metabolites can be profiled. Results
from four CSF samples are compared to gauge the detectability of metabolites by this method. About 261 metabolites are commonly
detected in replicate runs of four samples. In total, 1132 unique metabolite ion pairs are detected and 347 pairs (31%) matched
with at least one metabolite in the Human Metabolome Database. We also report a dansylation library of 220 standard compounds
and, using this library, about 85 metabolites can be positively identified. Among them, 21 metabolites have never been reported
to be associated with CSF. These results illustrate that the dansylation LC-FTICR MS method can be used to analyze the CSF
metabolome in a more comprehensive manner. 相似文献

The hydration, state, and mobility of protons and Li+, Na+, and Cs+ ions in MF-4SK perfluorinated sulfonic acid cation-exchange membranes doped with silicon dioxide and phosphotungstic acid
have been investigated by NMR and impedance spectroscopy. The dopants increase the moisture content of the membrane and change
the system of pores and channels in which ion transport takes place. At low humidities, the dopant particles are involved
in ion transport. The greatest effect is observed for the membranes doped with both SiO2 and phosphotungstic acid. The water molecules sorbed by dopant particles as a material participate in the hydration of alkali
metal cations in the membrane. 相似文献

Sulfation pattern within chondroitin sulfate (CS) glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains is an important post-translational modification
that regulates their interaction with proteins. In this context, development of highly efficient and reproducible analytical
methods for the investigation of CS sulfation patterns is of high necessity. In this study we report a novel method for straightforward
determination of N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) sulfation sites in chondroitin sulfate disaccharides. Our protocol involves
combining fully automated chip-based nanoelectrospray (nanoESI) for analyte infusion and ionization in negative ion mode with
multistage (MSn) collision-induced dissociation (CID) high capacity ion trap (HCT) mass spectrometry for generation of sequence ions diagnostic
for identification of sulfate ester group position within GalNAc residues. The feasibility of this approach is here demonstrated
on chondroitin 6-O-sulfate and chondroitin 4-O-sulfate disaccharides. Fragmentation patterns obtained by MS2 and MS3 sequencing stages provided first mass spectrometric data from which sulfation site(s) within GalNAc monosaccharide ring could
be unequivocally deciphered. Hence, the method allowed discriminating 4S/6S sulfation sites solely on the basis of MS and
multistage MS evidence.

The visible light irradiation of the [(η5-C6H7)Fe(η-C6H6)]+ cation (1) in acetonitrile resulted in the substitution of the benzene ligand to form the labile acetonitrile species [(η5-C6H7)Fe(MeCN)3]+ (2). The reaction of 1 with ButNC in MeCN produced the stable isonitrile complex [(η5-C6H7)Fe(ButNC)3]+ (3). The photochemical reaction of cation 1 with pentaphosphaferrocene Cp*Fe(η-cyclo-P5) afforded the triple-decker cation with the bridging pentaphospholyl ligand, [(η5-C6H7)Fe(μ-η:η-cyclo-P5)FeCp*]+ (4). The latter complex was also synthesized by the reaction of cation 2 with Cp*Fe(η-cyclo-P5). The structure of the complex [3]PF6 was established by X-ray diffraction.

Large volume Ge-detectors have been used for the analysis of positron emitters of cosmogenic origin in extraterrestrial samples
including lunar samples and meteorites. We present results from the analysis of 26Al in the Rumanová chondrite which was found in 1994 in Slovakia. A slide of the meteorite was cut into ~1 cm3 cubes which were analyzed in a coincidence Ge–NaI(Tl) spectrometer placed in a large shield measuring 1.5 × 1.5 × 2 m3, and consisting of iron, lead and copper layers. Operational characteristics of the spectrometer are presented and discussed,
as well as the 26Al profile observed in the meteorite. 相似文献
