Hemoglobin (Hb) Neuilly-sur-Marne is a new α-chain variant found during a systematic screening. Electrospray mass measurements showed the presence of an abnormal α-chain displaying a shift of +315 u relative to the normal value. Tryptic cleavage of this chain and molecular weight determination of the peptides indicated that the 315 u shift was located into the αT-9 peptide, the molecular weight of which is higher than 3000 Da. High-energy collision spectra of MH+ ions generated by liquid secondary ion mass spectrometry from the normal and abnormal αT-9 afforded mainly amino-terminal containing ions. They indicated that these two peptides have an identical amino acid sequence from their 1st to 25th residues, the mass increase being thus located beyond this point. Too few ions were formed to establish reliably the sequence forward. It was hypothesized that this mass shift could result from a repeated sequence since the sum of the mass of the three residues—leucine, serine and aspartic acid—preceding position 25 is exactly 315 u. To get sequence information above position 25, decomposition of multicharged species was attempted. An ion trap fitted with a nanospray ionization source was used. It produced mainly triply- and quadruply-charged ions. Decomposition of the triply-charged ion afforded a series of singly-charged Y-ions in the expected region, giving a readily interpretable sequence. It confirmed the insertion of a Ser-Asp-Leu sequence above position 25. Surprisingly, decomposition of the quadruply-charged molecular ion gave too few ions to provide sequence information in the expected region. Spectra were dominated by some multicharged Y ions arising from cleavages close to the amino end. Tandem mass spectrometry experiments were performed on the abundant Y303+ ion and produced again a singly-charged Y ion series in the suitable domain which confirmed the above result. In Hb Neuilly-sur Marne this insertion of the Ser-Asp-Leu residues. between positions α-86 and α-87 is very likely due to a slipped strand mispairing mechanism.

<div> <div> <div> <p>A key step in gas-phase polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) formation involves the addition of acetylene (or other alkyne) to σ-type aromatic radicals, with successive additions yielding more complex PAHs. A similar process can happen for N- containing aromatics. In cold diffuse environments, such as the interstellar medium, rates of radical addition may be enhanced when the σ-type radical is charged. This paper investigates the gas-phase ion-molecule reactions of acetylene with nine aromatic distonic σ-type radical cations derived from pyridinium (Pyr), anilinium (Anl) and benzonitrilium (Bzn) ions. Three isomers are studied in each case (radical sites at the ortho, meta and para positions). Using a room temperature ion trap, second-order rate coefficients, product branching ratios and reaction efficiencies are reported. </p> </div> </div> </div>

Spectra Analysis

Trigliceride or triacylglicerol (TAG) composition in crude oil of sixteen strain of marine diatom has been detected by spectra analyses on an Electrospray - Ion Trap – Mass Spectrometry (ESI-IT-MS) HCT Bruker-Daltonic GmbH instrument with AgNO3 used as coordination ionization agent. Biomass samples of each microalga strain were taken from early and late stationary cultures in f/2 enriched seawater and algal oils were extracted according to Bligh and Dyer. Results from spectra analysis showed that P-Pt-P (C16:0-C16:1-C16:0) were distinguished in TAG from diatom strains Chaetoceros sp.1, Chaetoceros sp.2, Thalasiossira sp.1, Thalasiossira sp.2, Thalasiossira sp.3, Navicula sp. 1, Navicula sp. 2, Navicula sp. 3, Navicula sp. 4, Nitzschia sp. 2 and Amphora sp. In contrast, TAGs in Melosira sp. included P-P-P (C16:0-C16:0-C16:0) and P-P-O (C16:0-C16:0-C18:1) were identified. TAGs from Chaetoceros sp. were the most varies among samples, i.e. P-Pt-P (C16:0-C16:1-C16:0), A-P-M (C20:4-C16:0-C14:0), P-Pt-Lt (C16:0-C16:1-C18:3), P-Pt-A (C16:0-C16:1-C20:4), D-P-P (C22:6-C16:0-C16:0), A-Ln-P (C20:4-C18:2-C16:0). Various TAGs were also detected in Nitzschia sp.2, i.e. P-Pt-M (C16:0-C16:1-C14:0), P-Pt-P (C16:0-C16:1-C16:0), P-Pt-S (C16:0-C16:1-C18:0), P-Pt-A (C16:0-C16:1-C20:4). TAGs composition in Skeletonema strains that similar to those in Nitzschia sp.1 has longer carbon, i.e. P-P-O (C16:0-C16:0-C18:1), P-O-O (C16:0-C18:1-C18:1) and O-O-O (C18:1-C18:1-C18:1). TAGs with longer carbon chain and more double bond including highly unsaturated fatty acid C20:4 were increased with culture age in diatoms Chaetoceros sp.1, Chaetoceros sp.2, Thalasiossira sp.2, Navicula sp.1 and Nitzschia sp. 2.Keywords: diatom, TAG, ESI-IT-MS, f/2, early and late stationary
