Prediction of Molar Extinction Coefficients of Proteins and Peptides Using UV Absorption of the Constituent Amino Acids at 214 nm To Enable Quantitative Reverse Phase High-Performance Liquid Chromatography−Mass Spectrometry Analysis
Open accessAbstract
The molar extinction coefficients of 20 amino acids and the peptide bond were measured at 214 nm in the presence of acetonitrile and formic acid to enable quantitative comparison of peptides eluting from reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography, once identified with mass spectrometry (RP-HPLC-MS). The peptide bond has a molar extinction coefficient of 923 M(-1) cm(-1). Tryptophan has a molar extinction coefficient that is approximately 30 times higher than that of the peptide bond, whereas the molar extinction coefficients of phenylalanine, tyrosine, and histidine are approximately six times higher than that of the peptide bond. Proline, as an individual amino acid, has a negligible molar extinction coefficient. However, when present in the peptide chain (except at the N terminus), it absorbs approximately three times more than a peptide bond. Methionine has a similar molar extinction coefficient as the peptide bond, while all other amino acids have much lower molar extinction coefficients. The predictability of the molar extinction coefficients of proteins and peptides, calculated by the amino acid composition and the number of peptide bonds present, was validated using several proteins and peptides. Most of the measured and calculated molar extinction coefficients were in good agreement, which shows that it is possible to compare peptides analyzed by RP-HPLC-MS in a quantitative way. This method enables a quantitative analysis of all peptides present in hydrolysates once identified with RP-HPLC-MS.

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.
