| Popis: | The basic hexapeptide antagonist [Arg6,D-Trp7,9,MePhe8]-substance P (6-11) was degraded in acid and alkaline media. In acid solution, only one degradation product is found whereas in alkaline solution at least six products are formed. These compounds were analytically characterized and structurally identified by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry, fast atom bombardment tandem mass spectrometry, optical rotation analysis, and chiral gas chromatography. The product formed in acidic solution is the terminally deamidated antagonist [Arg6,D-Trp7,9,MePhe8]substance P (6-11); this product was also found in alkaline degradation mixtures. Other important degradation products originate from racemization of the amino acid residue L-Met, formation of ornithine from Arg, and the oxidation of Met to its sulfoxide form. |
