    Notes: We found that picolinic acid is a very good matrix for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) time-of-flight mass spectrometry of oligonucleotides, proteins and tRNA. Among the oligonucleotides, picolinic acid was shown to be effective for homo-oligonucleotides, d(G)40 and d(C)60, and for mixed-base oligonucleotides up to 190 bases. In the case of the single-stranded oligonucleotides, and of double-stranded ones as well, only parent ions corresponding to single-stranded DNA were observed. The efficiency for MALDI of oligonucleotides using the picolinic acid matrix was superior to that using 3-hydroxypicolinic acid. MALDI of transfer RNA phenylalanine-specific (tRNAphe), a 76-base ribonucleic acid, was detected with a signal-to-noise ratio of 〉10. By comparison with 3-hydroxypicolinic acid the results with picolinic acid are notably superior for all oligonucleotides.

    Notes: 3-Aminopicolinic acid (3-APA) was tested and found to be a useful matrix for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization of DNA and protein. Single-stranded DNA segments of 150-mer and double-stranded DNA of 246 base pairs were successfully detected by using 3-APA as an ultraviolet-absorbing matrix in a linear time-of-flight mass spectrometer. In the case of the double-stranded DNA, only parent ions corresponding to single-stranded DNA were observed. The comparison with 3-hydroxypicolinic acid and picolinic acid matrices is discussed.

    Notes: We report the first detection of DNA segments as large as 500 nucleotides by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry, using picolinic acid and 3-hydroxypicolinic acid mixtures as desorption matrices. The successful detection of 500-nucleotide DNA indicates that laser mass spectrometry is now emerging as a new biotechnology tool for DNA-related research. It should be possible to utilize fast detection of large DNA segments by laser mass spectrometry for rapid human genome sequencing.

    Notes: Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) was used for several small proteins (such as insulin) and for peptides. It was found that the detection efficiencies of MALDI for the insulin B chain and the insulin A chain are drastically different. Similar phenomena were also observed for various types of peptides. The positive-ion signal of MALDI in detecting proteins or peptides was found to be greatly enhanced by the presence of a basic amino acid in their chains. The experimental results indicate that this enhancement may arise from proton transfer in solution by an acid-base reaction between the protein/peptide and matrix molecule. This pre-protonated mechanism provides a low energy barrier for the ionization of peptides in a MALDI process, and greatly reduces the energy threshold of MALDI. Matrix effects on the ionization mechanism are discussed.
