A technique for the amino acid sequence determination of oligopeptides based on the computer interpretation of the high resolution mass spectra of certain peptide derivatives is described. It has been successfully applied to di-through pentapeptides containing glycine, alanine, serine, proline, valine, threonine, leucine, asparagine,-aminoadipic acid, lysine, glutamic acid, methionine, histidine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, and S-benzylcysteine and with acetyl, trifluoroacetyl, chlorodifluoroacetyl, benzoyl, carbobenzoxy, phthaloyl, chlorophthaloyl, tosyl, and 3-hydroxydodecanoyl as N-terminal substituents. Because of its speed, sensitivity (a few micrograms yield a usable spectrum), relative tolerance toward contaminants, and objectivity of interpretation, the technique should prove use-ful in the course of the many sequence determinations required for the determination of the structure of a protein.The determination of the amino acid sequence in oligopeptides is a formidable experimental task which is of crucial importance in three areas: first and above all, in the determination of the primary structure of proteins; second, in the determination of the much smaller nonprotein peptidessuch as some antibiotics and related metabolites; and third, to verify the sequence (and sequential purity) of a synthetic peptide.
