Mass spectrometric studies on peptides and proteins : conformations of Escherichia coli Thioredoxin and its alkylated adducts studied by hydrogen/deuterium exchange and HPLC-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

Creator:: Kim, Moo-young
Abstract:: E. coli thioredoxin (TRX) was modified by the episulfonium ion derived from S-(2-chloroethyl)glutathione (CEG) or S-(2-chloroethyl)cysteine (CEC). The alkylation site was located at Cys-32, which was confirmed by tandem mass spectrometry. Two forms of native TRX, Oxi- and Red-TRX, and two modified TRXs, GS- and Cys-TRX, were examined by hydrogen/deuterium...
