    Abstract:

    Abstract We report the synthesis and structural characterization of the novel Edman-type protein-sequencing reagent 4-(3-pyridinylmethylaminocarboxypropyl) phenyl isothiocyanate. A panel of thiohydantoins prepared from this reagent were found stable during liquid chromatography-electrospray mass spectrometry and were detectable at the low femtomole sensitivity level. Furthermore, the signal detected for these compounds in the mass spectrometer was linear from the low femtomole to the low picomole range. The derivatives showed uv absorbance spectra comparable to their Phenylthiohydantoin counterparts. The extinction coefficient for the 4-(3-pyridinylmethylaminocarboxypropyl) phenyl thiohydantoin tyrosine was determined by adsorptive sequence analysis of a synthetic pentapeptide featuring an N-terminal 125I-labeled tyrosine. The sequence data suggest that the reagent will be useful for extended sequence analysis of proteins and peptides using commercially available gas-liquid-phase sequencers.
