Cinnamic acid derivatives as matrices for ultraviolet laser desorption mass spectrometry of proteins

Beavis, Ronald C., Chait, Brain T., Fales, H. M.·1989·Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry

Abstract

The paper reports the discovery of three new matrices for the matrix‐assisted laser desorption of proteins. These new matrices (sinapic, ferulic and caffeic acids) are cinnamic acid derivatives that have several pratical advantages over the nicotinic acid matrices previously used. These materials form much less intense photochemically generated adduct peaks in the protein quasimolecular ion signal and the adduct peaks that are present are easier to resolve. These new matrices are produce intense protonated‐molecule ions from all of the proteins (over 50) so far examined. These new matrices are also very stable in a vacuum, allowing for their convenient use in very high vacuum applications (e.g., Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
