Direct MALDI-MS analysis of the disulfide bonds in peptide using thiosalicylic acid as a reactive matrix.
Journal of Mass Spectrometry : JMS 2017 Februrary
The ability of a thiol-containing molecule, thiosalicylic acid (TSA), to function as a reactive matrix for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry analysis of peptides has been investigated. Although TSA has reducing characteristics, the use of TSA did not cause a reduction-induced MALDI in-source decay, probably because of the weak interactions between the thiol group in TSA and the carboxyl oxygen in the peptide. In contrast, when peptides containing disulfide bonds were analyzed by MALDI with TSA as the matrix, the disulfide bond was partially cleaved owing to the reaction with TSA, producing TSA-adducted peptides. The reaction between the disulfide bond and TSA was suggested to be occurred in solution. The comparison of the MALDI mass spectra obtained using conventional matrix and TSA allows us to count the number of disulfide bonds in the peptides. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
