Abstract:The formation of copper/peptide complex ions by nano-electrospray and microbore HPLC-electrospray mass spectrometry has been investigated for major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and class II restricted peptides. Post-column addition of copper(II) acetate following microbore HPLC-MS separation was carried out using a mixing T-piece or via the sheath flow inlet of the electrospray source. Optimal analytical conditions for copper complex ion formation were determined by variation of copper concentration, pH, nebulization gas supply and spray voltage. Tandem mass spectrometry of copper/peptide complex ions provides peptide sequence information and insight into the peptide chelation sites. Copper associated y fragment ions dominate the product ion spectrum for non-histidine containing peptides, but both b and y copper complex ions were observed for the histidine containing MHC class I associated peptide gp70.
