Table 1.

Protonated ion masses of microcystin (MC) variants from Phormidium sp. LP904c and their relative amounts (%) identified from either Phormidium sp. LP904c or DVL1003c by HPLC-ESI-ITMS. Peak areas of the extracted ion chromatograms of the protonated microcystins were used in relative amount calculations. Hty = homotyrosine, Hph = homophenylalanine, [M + H]+ (m/z) = mass per charge value of protonated microcystins, Rt (min) = retention time in minutes, RA = relative amount, Aa = amino acid. Additional information presented in Figure S1.
