摘要
Mycobacterial methylglucose lipopolysaccharides (MGLPs) play an important regulatory role in the biosynthesis of long-chain fatty acids by forming complexes with neosynthesized acyl-CoA fatty acid derivatives. The MGLPs from Mycobacterium smegmatis were purified by highperformance anion-exchange chromatography and characterized by LSIMS and CE/ESI-MS. We investigated their interaction with palmitoyl-CoA using capillary zone electrophoresis with both direct and indirect UV detection. In the latter mode, the signal of the UV-transparent MGLPs decreased upon addition of increasing amounts of palmitoyl-CoA; while using direct UV detection, the addition of palmitoyl-CoA to the MGLPs revealed characteristic profiles. The major peak was assigned to the noncovalent MGLP/palmitoyl-CoA complex on the basis of its electrophoretic mobility. The abundance of the complex was found to increase until the MGLP/palmitoyl-CoA molar ratio reached a 1/1 stoichiometry. The existence of and the stoichiometry of this complex were assessed by CE/ESI mass spectrum analysis, showing pseudomolecular ions of the MGLP/palmitoyl-CoA complex. These results confirm that CE/ESI-MS is a powerful tool to characterize noncovalent molecular association.
