Calibration of stable isotope labeled-internal standards (SIL-IS). (A) Various amounts of pure dm5C nucleoside were spiked with a constant molar amount (250 fmol) of chemically synthesized [D3]dm5C. The slope of the double logarithmic plot of the ratio of the areas and the amount of nucleoside can be used to calculate the unknown amount of dm5C in the sample. (B) Calibration of S. cerevisiae SIL-IS, containing 13C labeled rm5C, was performed in the same manner. Instead of a constant molar amount of SIL-IS a constant mass of 50 ng was used.
