Revealing Single-Bond Anomeric Selectivity in Carbohydrate-Protein Interactions

Ruslan Yamaletdinov, Aleksandr Pereverzev, Viktoriia Aladinskaia

The noncovalent binding of proteins to glycans is amazingly selective to the isoforms of carbohydrates, including alpha/beta anomers that coexist in solution. We isolate in the gas phase and study at the atomic level the simplest model system: noncovalent ...

Ultraviolet Photodissociation of Peptides: New Insight on the Mobile Proton Model

Aleksandr Pereverzev, Elizaveta Solovyeva

In this work, we study the mechanism of peptide photodissociation by ultraviolet irradiation at 193 nm wavelength and discuss the role of ionization proton in this process. We found that substituting the ionization proton for the alkali metal cations (sodi ...

Spectroscopic Evidence for Peptide-Bond-Selective Ultraviolet Photodissociation

Vladimir Kopysov, Aleksandr Pereverzev

We study the photodissociation induced by ultraviolet excitation of amide bonds in gas-phase protonated peptides. Jointly, mass spectrometry and cold ion spectroscopy provide evidence for a selective non-statistical dissociation of specific peptide bonds i ...

Method for Identification of Threonine Isoforms in Peptides by Ultraviolet Photofragmentation of Cold Ions

Vladimir Kopysov, Aleksandr Pereverzev, Elizaveta Solovyeva

Identification of isomeric amino acid residues in peptides and proteins is challenging but often highly desired in proteomics. One of the practically important cases that require isomeric assignments is that associated with single-nucleotide polymorphism s ...

Interplay of H-Bonds with Aromatics in Isolated Complexes Identifies Isomeric Carbohydrates

Vladimir Kopysov, Ruslan Yamaletdinov, Aleksandr Pereverzev

The tremendous isomeric diversity of carbohydrates enables a wide range of their biological functions but makes the identification and study of these molecules difficult. We investigated the ability of intermolecular interactions to communicate structural ...

Gas-phase structures reflect the pain-relief potency of enkephalin peptides

Vladimir Kopysov, Aleksandr Pereverzev

We use cold ion spectroscopy and quantum-chemical computations to solve the structures of opioid peptides enkephalins in the gas phase. The derived structural parameters clearly correlate with the known pharmacological efficiency of the studied drugs, sugg ...

Peptide Bond Ultraviolet Absorption Enables Vibrational Cold-Ion Spectroscopy of Nonaromatic Peptides

Vladimir Kopysov, Aleksandr Pereverzev

Peptide-bond VUV absorption is inherent to all proteins and peptides. Although widely exploited in top-down proteomics for photodissociation, this absorption has never been spectroscopically characterized in the gas phase. We have measured VUV/UV photofrag ...

The intrinsic structure of an opioid peptide [Ala2, Leu5]-leucine enkephalin (ALE) has been investigated using first-principles based vibrational self-consistent field (VSCF) theory and cold ion spectroscopy. IR-UV double resonance spectroscopy revealed th ...

Linking the intrinsic tertiary structures of biomolecules to their native geometries is a central prerequisite for making gas-phase studies directly relevant to biology. The isolation of molecules in the gas phase eliminates hydrophilic interactions with s ...

Proteins and even small peptides play crucial role in almost any biological. Biological activity and functionality of these building blocks of life are determined not only by their primary structure, but also by their 3D orientation â secondary, tertiary ...
