Abstract: | Interaction of cis-Pt(en)(H2O)2]2+ and CuL(H2O)]2+, where L is 2-bis(2-aminoethyl)amino]ethanol, with oxidized insulin B chain in molar ratio of 1 : 1, 1 : 2 and 1 : 3 at pH 2.5 and 40 degrees C has been investigated by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). The results show that the binding sites of the two complexes with oxidized insulin B chain are terminal NH2, imidazole groups of His5 and His10. The hydrolytic cleavage studies show that the CuL(H2O)]2+, upon a pendant hydroxyl group of the ligand, selectively cleaves the peptide bonds at Gly8-Ser9, Asn3-Gln4 and Phe1-Val2, and the cis-Pt(en)(H2O)2]2+ only cleaves the peptide bond at His10-Leu11. This is the first report of cis-Pt(en)(H2O)2]2+-promoted cleavage of His-X peptide bond. |
