Comparison of average calculated peptide masses for up to two missed cleavage sites and two oxidations. Amino acid numbering is assigned to match that of Protein Data Bank entry 1H70.
Masses are reported with errors of ± 0.05 Da.
Ox stands for addition of +16 Da for one calculated oxidation.
Me-Pyr stands for the 2-methyl-pyridine adduct (10) shown in Scheme 3.
Peptide mass is taken from a digest done in parallel using an uninhibited DDAH sample.
