The epitope of horse cytochrome c against monoclonal antibody E8 was determined using amide hydrogen/deuterium (H/D) exchange combined with immobilized antibody, on-line pepsin proteolysis, liquid chromatography (LC), and mass spectrometry (MS). The results were generally in good agreement with contact residues identified by an X-ray co-crystal structure of the E8-cytochrome c complex and results obtained by H/D exchange with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometry. The H/D exchange reaction of cytochrome c was carried out in the presence or absence of immobilized E8 antibody. Regions that gained less deuterium in the presence of the antibody than in its absence are defined as the epitope by the H/D exchange MS method. Control experiments were carefully designed to help identify the epitope with high confidence.

Rigorous Analysis of Multimodal HDX-MS Spectra.

J Am Soc Mass Spectrom

Department of Medicinal Chemistry, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195, United States.

An inherent strength of hydrogen/deuterium exchange coupled to mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) is its ability to detect the presence of multiple conformational states of a protein, which often manifest as multimodal isotopic envelopes. However, the statistical considerations for accurate analysis of multimodal spectra have yet to be established. Here we outline an unrestrained binomial distribution fitting approach with the corresponding statistical tests to accurately detect and, when possible, deconvolute isotopic distributions that contain multiple subpopulations.

A Pt(II) aqua complex supported by mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN)-immobilized sulfonated CNN pincer ligand featuring a rigid SiO tether was prepared. This hybrid material was tested as a catalyst in H/D exchange reactions of C(sp)-H bonds of selected aromatic substrates and DO-2,2,2-trifluoroethanol- (TFE-) mixtures or CDCOD acting as a source of exchangeable deuterium. The catalyst immobilization served as a means to not only enable the catalyst's recyclability but also minimize the coordination of sulfonate groups and the metal centers originating from different catalyst's moieties that would preserve reactive Pt(OH) fragments needed for catalytic C-H bond activation.

Single GAF Domain Phytochrome Exhibits a pH-Dependent Shunt on the Millisecond Timescale.

The light-sensing activity of phytochromes is based on the reversible light-induced switching between two isomerization states of the bilin chromophore. These photo-transformations may not necessarily be only unidirectional, but could potentially branch back to the initial ground state in a thermally driven process termed shunt. Such shunts have been rarely reported, and thus our understanding of this process and its governing factors are limited.

Proton diffusion and hydrogen/deuterium exchange in amorphous solid water at temperatures from 114 to 134 K.

J Chem Phys

December 2024

Physical Sciences Division, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Richland, Washington 99352, USA.

The reaction coefficient for hydrogen/deuterium (H/D) exchange and the diffusion of hydrated excess protons within amorphous solid water (ASW) are characterized as a function of temperature. For these experiments, water films are deposited on a Pt(111) substrate at 108 K, and reactions with pre-adsorbed hydrogen atoms produce hydrated protons. Upon heating, protons diffuse within the water, and H/D exchange occurs when they encounter D2O probe molecules deposited in the films.
