Abstract
The complexation of alkali metal ions and the proton X+ (X=H, Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs) by β-alanyl-L-histidine (carnosine, Car) was investigated by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and MS/MS fragmentation studies. Collision-induced dissociation (CID) breakdown curves were recorded and the resulting apparent activation energies were compared to DFT calculations of binding energies at the B3LYP/cc-pVDZ level of theory. Additionally, the influence of metal complexation on hydrogen/deuterium exchange of CarX+ with D2O was tested. Our investigations characterize the structures of Car-alkali complexes and elucidate the interaction with the differently sized solvated metal cations.
