The topology and dynamics of melittin within the liposome were investigated by a mass spectrometry coupled with acetylation. The MALDI-TOF MS and MALDI-QIT-TOF MS/MS analyses revealed that only N-terminal amine of melittin was dominantly acetylated in the presence of liposome although all of four primary amines were completely and rapidly acetylated in aqueous solution. This result indicates that melittin adopts the N-terminal-outside transmembrane topology within the liposome. The time course of acetylation followed the first-order kinetics at any examined temperatures (6–30°C). The rate constant was less than that of the acetylation of melittin in aqueous solution. The activation energy for acetylation (74kJmol−1) was comparable to that for dissociation of a lipid monomer from the membrane, suggesting a float-like longitudinal motion of melittin within the liposome. These results demonstrate that a mass spectrometry combined with chemical modification is very efficient way for clarifying the topology and dynamics of peptides bound to the membrane.
