Modification of the Prolyl Ring of Val-Pro-Ala and the Impact of this Modification on b 2 Ion Structure Matthew Bernier, Julia Chamot-Rooke, Ashley Gucinski, & Vicki Wysocki International Symposium on Molecular Spectroscopy 68th Meeting 6/19/13
Roepstorff P, Fohlman J. Biomed. Mass Spectrom. (1984) 11 (11): 601. b2b2 y2y2 b fragment ion formation Collision induced dissociation (Ar/He)
oxazolone diketopiperazine cis trans b fragment ion formation
VS Isomerization (trans-cis) Rel. Energy 20 kcal/mol 13 kcal/mol JACS, (13): p kcal/mol 0.5 kcal/mol What makes proline so special?
Gucinski et al. Phys Chem A – Just Accepted Only ONE of the XxxPro peptides here show no evidence of diketopiperazine b 2 structure What makes proline so special?

Does wavelength excite vibrational mode of molecule? Yes Fragmentation Efficiency No + No fragments = no wavenumber scanned + Molecule of interest ionized into the gas phase + MS trapping and irradiation with tunable IR laser Electrospray Ionization (ESI) Fragmentation Efficiency: I fragments / I precursor + + OR Fragment ions detected- measurable intensity at vibrationally active energy CLIO Infrared Laser Tunable cm -1 Action Infrared Multi-Photon Dissociation Spectroscopy
