摘要
The CP4-EPSPS gene is widely used in herbicide-tolerant plants/crops all over the world. In this study, a method was developed by coupling liquid chromatography with high sensitivity to tandem mass spectrometry to quantify the amount of CP4-EPSPS expression in Nicotiana tabacum leaves. The quantification of protein was converted to measure the unique peptide of CP4-EPSPS protein. One peptide unique to CP4-EPSPS was synthesized and labeled with.H2^18O to get 180 stable isotope labeled peptide. The peptide served as the internal standard. The validated method had good specificity and linearity. The intra-and inter-day precisions and accuracy for all samples were satisfactory. The results demonstrated that the novel method was sensitive and selective to quantify CP4- EPSPS in the crude extract without time-consuming pre-separation or.the purification procedures.
