Chapter 27, Problem 27.27P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The m/z value of M+1 fragment ion from b-type fragmentation of the given peptide is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

In mass spectroscopy, compounds can be identified on the basis of the mass of the compound. When the compound breaks into fragment then they can be distinguished from the other compounds. This technique is also used to differentiate the isotopes of compounds. In amino acids, three types of fragments are observed in low energy collisions are a, b and y ions. It is known as tandem mass spectrometry.

Answer to Problem 27.27P

The m/z value of M+1 fragment ion from b-type fragmentation of the given peptide is shown below.

HNm/z=115HNF     m/z=262.1HNFE     m/z=391.2HNFES      m/z=478.2HNFESG   m/z=535.2HNFESGKOHm/z=680.3

Where N is asparagine, F is phenylalanine, E is glutamic acid, S is serine, G is glycine, K is lysine amino acid.

Explanation of Solution

In amino acids, b-type fragments appear due to an amino group or in other words charge is being carried by N-terminal. That is why it is also known as the N-terminus amino acid fragment. The b-type fragment is shown below.

Figure 1

The given peptide is NFESGK where N is asparagine with m/z=114, F is phenylalanine with m/z=147.1, E is glutamic acid with m/z=129, S is serine with m/z=87, G is glycine with m/z=57 and K is lysine with m/z=128.1. The formation of the peptide with M+1 fragment ion by subsequent addition of their residues in b-type fragment manner. The m/z value of M+1 fragment ion from b-type fragmentation of the given peptide is shown below.

HNm/z=115HNF     m/z=262.1HNFE     m/z=391.2HNFES      m/z=478.2HNFESG   m/z=535.2HNFESGKOHm/z=680.3

Conclusion

The m/z value of M+1 fragment ion from b-type fragmentation of the given peptide is shown above.

Answer to Problem 27.27P

The m/z value of M+1 fragment ion from y-type fragmentation of the peptide in part (a) containing protonated H3N+ ion is shown below.

H2KOH            m/z=147.1H2GKOH             m/z=204.1H2SGKOH         m/z=291.2H2ESGKOH      m/z=420.2H2FESGKOH   m/z=567.28H2NFESGKOHm/z=681.3

Where N is asparagine, F is phenylalanine, E is glutamic acid, S is serine, G is glycine, K is lysine amino acid.

Explanation of Solution

In amino acids, y-type fragments appear due to a carboxyl group or in other words charge is being carried by C-terminal. That is why it is also known as the C-terminus amino acid fragment. The y-type fragment is shown below.
