摘要
Ultraviolet photodissociation is a high-energy fast excitation method in mass spectrometry and has beensuccessfully applied for the elucidation of sequences and structures of biomolecules. However, its abilityto distinguish the phosphorylation sites isomers of multi-phosphopeptides has been not systematicallyinvestigated until now. A 193-nm ultraviolet laser dissociation mass spectrometry system wasestablished in this study and applied to elucidate the complex multi-phosphorylation statuses mimickingthe functional regions of Sicl, Gli3 and Tau. The numbers of matched fragment ions and phosphorylationsite-determining ions were improved on average 123% and 104%, respectively, by utilizing the ultravioletphotodissociation strategy, comparing to the typically utilized collision induced dissociation strategy.Finally. 94% phosphorylation sites within various statuses were unambiguously elucidated.
