  • Title: Direct analysis of the products of sequential cleavages of peptides and proteins affinity-bound to immobilized metal ion beads by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry.

    Abstract:
    Consecutive enzymatic reactions on analytes affinity-bound to immobilized metal ion beads with subsequent direct analysis of the products by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry have been used for detecting protein synthesis errors occuring at the N-terminus. The usefulness of this method was demonstrated by analyzing two commercially available recombinant HIV proteins with affinity tags at the N-terminus, and histatin-5, a peptide with multiple histidine residues. The high specificity, sensitivity, and speed of analysis make this method especially useful in obtaining N-terminal sequencing information of histidine-tagged recombinant proteins.
