Product ion spectra for adducted peptides were indistinguishable between both pH conditions; more products were observed at pH 8.5 therefore ions series for the products at this pH was given.

a

Observed signals assigned as b- or y- ions for the diadducts are listed.

b

Reference to detailed spectra corresponding to the appropriate ion series.

c

The modifications are 1,2-naphthoquinone (monoadduct mass +158.04).

d

The adducted masses were observed in incubations performed at both pHs; data are from pH 8.5 incubations.

e

Ions in bold represent modification by a naphthoquinone. A bold b- or y- represents a monoadducted ion. Some of the diadduct MS/MS spectra had monoadduct fragment ions present that were absent in the monoadduct MS/MS spectra.

f

The modifications are 1,4-naphthoquinone (monoadduct mass +158.04).

g

In the detected fragment ion signals, X represents the mass of the adduct.
