Abstract
Peptide ionization was analyzed using MALDI mass spectrometry (MS) in the presence of ammonium salts to improve detection of phosphopeptides in peptide mixtures. Standard phosphopeptides from beta-casein and candidate novel phosphopeptides from the yeast protein Gcn2p were identified from MALDI MS by analysis of the relative intensities of positive and negative ions from the peptides. Beta casein were digested with trypsin to generate a peptide mixture containing known phosphopeptides. Ammonium sulfate increased the relative intensity of both phosphopeptides, while ammonium citrate invreased the intensity of phosphopeptide 16-40, but had no effect on phosphopeptide 48-63.
