Table 1.

Fragment ions observed in the CID spectrum of SAP corresponding to covalent backbone fragmentation directly from the SAP pentamer. Δm/z corresponds to the difference between the theoretical m/z as determined from the amino acid sequence and the experimentally measured m/z. The measured values for the intact pentamer and the fragment ions for which at least a portion of all 5 subunits are still bound (i.e. Pentamer-covalents) are heavy by ∼2-2.5 m/z due to the presence of solvent adducts.
