LC-ESI MS and HPLC analysis of the BSA modification by VAS3947. (A) Extracted ion current chromatograms and corresponding mass spectra are shown for VAS3947 and a VAS3947/BSA mixture (20 min incubation). * Low intensity observed for BSA makes it difficult for the MaxEnt1 algorithm to catch a mass with high precision for this protein. (B) HPLC analysis for the same solution of VAS3947, oxazole-2-thiol, and the VAS3947/BSA mixture. (C) MS and HPLC analyses indicate that the thiol function of BSA is alkylated by the benzyltriazolopyrimidine moiety of VAS3947, with the oxazole-2-thiol moiety of VAS3947 serving as leaving group.
