We have measured a vibrationally-resolved UV spectrum of doubly-protonated gramicidin S (GS) in the gas phase and, subsequently, a highly-resolved, conformer-specific infrared spectra in the 6 μm fingerprint region, using a cold ion trap in combination wit ...
Polyiodides have been transferred intact from acetonitrile solution to the gas phase and analyzed by mass spectrometry. A range of ions were observed, including I-11, I-13, and I-15, which have higher iodine/iodide ratios than any previously ...
We report on the acid ethylenedithiotetrathiafulvaleneamidoglycine (EDT-TTF-CO-NH-CH2-CO2H; 1; EDT-TTF=ethylenedithiotetrathiafulvalene) and the 1:1 adduct [(EDT-TTF)(center dot+) -CO-NH-CH2-(CO2H)(-)][(EDT-TTF)-CO-NH-CH2-(CO2H)]center dot CH3OH (2), a new ...
Peptide based and peptide hybrid materials represent two interesting and challenging classes of biomaterials. Both classes consist of and contain, respectively, one or more polypeptide blocks, endowing the resulting polymers with enhanced self-assembly pro ...
We present mechanistic studies aimed at improving the understanding of the product ion formation rules in electron capture dissociation (ECD) of peptides and proteins in Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. In particular, we attempt ...
A series of novel peptide N-caps was designed with an emphasis on ease of synthesis and an abundance of hydrogen bond acceptors. Different scaffolds based on sugars, cyclic hydrocarbons, and amino acids are developed with a variety of hydrogen bond accepto ...
The rules for product ion formation in electron capture dissociation (ECD) mass spectrometry of peptides and proteins remain unclear. Random backbone cleavage probability and the nonspecific nature of ECD toward amino acid sequence have been reported, cont ...
Cyclodepsipeptides incorporating a sugar amino acid, e.g., I, have been synthesized. A three-component reaction of a sugar amino acid (SAA) deriv., an aldehyde, and a dipeptide isonitrile in refluxing methanol afforded the corresponding 5-aminooxazole whic ...
We present in this work a new technique, which combines laser photofragmentation spectroscopy with tandem mass spectrometry, for structural investigations of biomolecular ions in the gas phase. A novel apparatus was designed and built for the implementatio ...
We report on the characteristics of the radical-ion-driven dissociation of a diverse array of beta-amino acids incorporated into alpha-peptides, as probed by tandem electron-capture and electron-transfer dissociation (ECD/ETD) mass spectrometry. The report ...
