Protein lysine methylation is a biologically-important posttranslational modification. Given the increased use of alkyllysine-containing peptides to study protein methylation, we describe an efficient solid-phase synthesis to access various alkyllysine-containing peptides. As an exemplary application, we evaluated how ionization efficiency of the alkyllysine peptides affects mass spectrometric analysis.
蛋白质赖氨酸甲基化是一种重要的生物翻译后修饰。鉴于越来越多地使用含烷基赖氨酸的肽来研究蛋白质甲基化,我们描述了一种有效的固相合成方法来获得各种含烷基赖氨酸的肽。作为一个示例应用,我们评估了烷基赖氨酸肽的离子化效率如何影响质谱分析。
