Mass spectrometric monitoring of in vitro formed ad ducts between hexahydrophthalic anhydride (HHPA) and cysteine and lysine

Author

Summary, in English

The in vitro formed adducts between hexahydrophthalic anhydride (HHPA) and cysteine and lysine were monitored by mass spectrometry. Freshly synthesized N-acetyl-S-hexahydrophthaloyl-L-cysteine was dissolved in dry acetonitrile and added to a solution of N-acetyl-L-lysine in 0.1 M sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) an incubated at 37°C. The reactions were monitored by LC/MS on a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer with electrospray ionization coupled to a HPLC system from Perkin Elmer. The results show that there was a rapid rearrangement of HHPA from most of the cysteines to the lysines, and that HHPA-adducts of cysteine will be transferred to lysine when encountered.
