Popis: | A convenient synthesis of some homologous light isotope-coded affinity tags (ICAT-L) containing an acid-labile moiety between the affinity component biotin and an electrophilic polar linker is described. These light ICAT reagents give smooth mass spectral signals in tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) analyses of some commercially available cysteine-containing peptides. However, these ICAT molecules are designed for use in identification and relative quantification of whole or partially purified cellular and tissue proteomes. Since the biotin moiety can be readily cleaved off the reagent after mass tagging, undesired residual fragmentation patterns caused by biotin of derived peptides, as normally observed using biotin-containing ICAT reagents, are effectively eliminated. This strategy should enhance peptide sequence coverage significantly which, in turn, should result in improving the quality of data obtained during data-dependent peptide mass and tandem mass spectral analysis of whole proteomes. |
