Derivatisation of carbohydrates by permethylation significantly improves the mass spectrometric intensity of carbohydrate-derived ions and allows more readily interpretable fragmentation; in addition, samples are conveniently separated from salts, and larger oligosaccharides are more readily ionised. It has previously been recognised that, in the mass spectra of permethylated carbohydrates, a series of ions indicating species 30 Da larger than the fully methylated carbohydrate molecules are also observed. These species have not been characterised in the literature despite their apparently ubiquitous occurrence in the mass spectra of permethylated carbohydrates. Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) experiments were performed on permethylated carbohydrates and reduced permethylated carbohydrates that exhibit the artefact, demonstrating that the artefact is not reducing terminal specific, and that the artefact can be introduced at any hydroxyl residue. It was further demonstrated through the use of different alkylation reagents that the origin of this artefact group is the alkylating reagent itself. It is proposed that side reactions that occur between the permethylation reagents allow the production of small amounts of iodomethyl methyl ether. This reagent can then compete with methyl iodide for reaction with the carbohydrate -OH groups. The result is partial incorporation of a methoxymethyl moiety instead of a methyl group, detected as '+30' artefact ions. 相似文献

This work describes the development and application of an on-line liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) method using hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) coupled to negative ion mode electrospray ionisation ion trap mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) for the analysis of highly polar carbohydrate-related metabolites commonly found in plants, ranging from reducing and non-reducing sugars and sugar alcohols to sugar phosphates. Using this method, separation and detection of a mixture of eight authentic standard compounds containing glucose (Glc), sucrose (Suc), raffinose, verbascose, mannitol, maltitol, glucose-6-phosphate (Glc6P) and trehalose-6-phosphate (Tre6P) were achieved in less than 15 min. The method is rapid, robust, selective, and sensitive, with limits of detection (LODs) ranging from 0.2 microM obtained for neutral sugars, to 1.0 microM obtained for sugar alcohols, and 2.0 microM obtained for negatively charged sugar phosphates. We have studied the negative ion collision-induced dissociation (CID) fragmentation behaviour of the non-reducing raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) raffinose, stachyose, and verbascose. Mainly Bi and Ci glycosidic and Ai cross-ring structurally informative cleavages are observed. We have applied this HILIC/ESI-MS method for the analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana wild-type Columbia-0 (Col-0) and its starchless phosphoglucomutase mutant (pgm1) leaf extracts. The method was used to quantify Glc, Suc, raffinose, and Glc6P in A. thaliana extracts. Data obtained using this HILIC/ESI-MS method were compared with those obtained using a comparable porous graphitic carbon-based LC/ESI-MS method. 相似文献

The fragmentation behavior of [M + H]+ ions of a series of underivatized and per-O-methylated trisaccharides having 1 → 6 linked residues, of which one or two is a deoxy-fluoro or deoxy residue and thus has a unique mass, has been studied by using collision-induced dissociation fast-atom bombardment mass spectrometry. In addition to the usual fragment ions resulting from glycosidic bond cleavage, fragment ions were observed which must have been generated following an unusual rearrangement process which can be rationalized in terms of the loss of an internal monosaccharide residue. 相似文献

A sensitive mass spectrometric method for the specific identification of O-glycosylation sites in glycopeptides is presented. Reductive β-elimination liberates a peptide containing a specifically modified amino acid at the former site of carbohydrate attachment. Mass spectrometry is used to determine the sequence of the modified peptide, in which the position of the modified amino acid marks the site of O-glycosylation. The method also provides information on the carbohydrate chain and is applicable at the low nanomolar level. 相似文献

Genista tenera is endemic to the Portuguese island of Madeira, where an infusion of the aerial parts of the plant is used in folk medicine as an antidiabetic agent. Consequently the medicinal properties of the secondary metabolites of this plant have been the subject of an ongoing study. A recently reported LC-MS method using a 100 min separation allowed identification of five flavonoid components in an extract of the aerial parts of this plant. In order to obtain additional information on the range and complexity of the plant's secondary metabolite components a CE-MS method has been developed and applied for the analysis of an extract of G. tenera. Twenty-six different components are distinguished in an analysis time of only 10 min. Results demonstrate that CE-MS/MS rapidly generates data complementary to those obtainable by LC-MS/MS and is particularly suited to the analysis of plant metabolites where concentration is not limiting. 相似文献
