Abstract

The phosphotyrosine containing peptides were studied by using infrared atmospheric pressure-matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization(IR AP-MALDI) ion trap mass spectrometers (ITMS). The computational method to aid in the determination of the types of interactions that could lead to gas phase dephosphorylation of phosphotyrosine were also utilized for the study. It was found that the peptides containing arginine or lysine residues lost 98 Da under collision induced dissociation (CID) conditions and peptides without lysine residues did not loss 98 Da under CID conditions. The results show that the cation-π interaction facilitate specific fragmentation of the phosphate group from phosphotyrosine under CID conditions.
