A technique to determine the carbohydrate composition of glycoproteins using capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (electron impact) with selected ion monitoring is described. This method entails hydrolysis with methanolic-HCl followed by formation of trimethylsilyl methylglycoside derivati

β¦ Synopsis
The extent and distribution of N-glycosylation and the nature of most of the disulfide bond linkages were determined for bovine lactoperoxidase through proteolytic and glycolytic digestions combined with matrixassisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometric analysis. In addition, 98% of the primary sequence of the protein was confirmed. All five of the asparagines present in sequons were found to be glycosylated, predominantly by high mannose and complex structures. Six disulfide bonds were assigned, including Cys 32-Cys 45, Cys 146-Cys 156, Cys 150-Cys 174, Cys 254-Cys 265, Cys 473-Cys 530 and Cys 571-Cys 596.

Fast-atom bombardment mass spectrometry was used to study disulfide bonding patterns in heat-denatured human recombinant macrophage colony stimulating factor (rhM-CSF). The heat-denaturated protein was studied by analysis of the pattern of peptides in the proteolytic digests. Native rhM-CSF is a hom
## Abstract The formation of disulfideβbonds is vital for the proper folding of most secreted proteins and the stabilization of the final protein structure, including many of medical importance. The determination of disulfideβbonds is an important aspect of gaining a comprehensive understanding of
