| Popis: | Peptides and small proteins, of limited molecular weight (MW) can be derivatized with a 6-aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxysuccinimidyl carbamate (6-AQC) reagent, leading to a single capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) peak, suggestive of a completely tagged product. The number of tags per molecule was demonstrated by matrix assisted, laser desorption, time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS) studies. In CZE, these species have greatly improved plate count and peak shape, improved (lowered) detectabilities, and in general, improved identification properties in the CZE mode in high performance capillary electrophoresis (HPCE). The formation of what appears to be a single, homogeneously tagged product is a function of how the derivatizations are performed. Once these conditions are optimized, virtually all peptides and small proteins tested (limited MW) can form single, fully tagged products, with the desirable CZE properties. These derivatization approaches thus lead to products that perform and are detected much better in CZE than their precursors (native, untagged peptides). The determined plate counts for these tagged peptides were as high as 6 million plates/m, which was very reproducible, and 59–12,000 times higher than the untagged (native) molecules. The peak symmetry was also improved greatly. The limit of detection (LOD) of some tested 6-AQC tagged peptides were nine to 209 times improved (lower) with ultraviolet (UV) absorption detection, again as compared with that for the native species. The LOD could be further lowered via laser induced fluorescence (LIF) detection in CZE, especially when acetonitrile (ACN) containing buffers were used. |
