Attachment studies with EDC (1-ethyl-3-dimethylaminopropyl carbodiimide) have revealed that peptides, ranging from 4 to 31 residues, can be linked to aminopropyl glass with satisfactory yield, if optimal conditions are obeyed. The attachment yields are, however, significantly lower with peptides possessing carboxyl terminal lysine. High-sensitivity solid-phase sequencing of immobilized peptides can be performed if DABITC (4-N, N-dimethylaminoazobenzene 4′-isothiocyanate), an Edman reagent with a covalently linked chromophore, is used in conjunction with phenyl isothiocyanate. Technical improvements have been introduced by utilization of intermittent nitrogen flushes, pumping of the DABITC reagent in a stepwise manner, and incorporation of an automated conversion device based on instant aequous dilution of the trifluoroacetic acid effluent. Solid-phase microsequencing constitutes a method of general applicability for peptides in the 1- to 10-nmol range, with up to 30–35 identifiable degradation steps.
