On-line Electrochemical Tagging of Free Cysteines in Peptides during Nanospray Ionisation Mass Spectrometry: An Overview

A recently developed nanospray interface for mass spectrometry (MS) was used to electro-generate benzoquinone from hydroquinone. When spraying biomolecules containing free cysteine residues in the presence of hydroquinone, the thiol cysteine moiety reacts via a 1,4-Michael addition with be...
