Abstract:
:A high-performance liquid chromatographic method involving postcolumn fluorescence derivatization is described for the quantification of five fragment peptides (methionine-enkephalin-Thr-Ser-Glu-Lys, methionine-enkephalin-Lys, methionine-enkephalin-Arg, leucine-enkephalin-Lys and leucine-enkephalin-Arg) released by tryptic digestion from the opioid peptide precursors (proopiomeranocortin and proenkephalins A and B) in rat brain tissues. The tissue proteins containing the precursors are hydrolyzed with trypsin to the fragment peptides. The peptides are separated on an Asahipak ODP-50 column and on-line detected fluorometrically by using hydroxylamine, cobalt(II) and borate buffer reagents. The detection limits (S/N = 3) for the peptides are 0.7-2.8 pmol per 100 microliters injected. The distribution of the precursors in the brain tissues was also discussed on the basis of the determined values of the fragment peptides.
