The Pictet-Spengler reaction was applied to the N-terminal labeling of horse heart myoglobin. This was performed in the following two steps: (1) conversion of the N-terminal glycine residue to an alpha-keto aldehyde by a transamination reaction and (2) condensation of the resulting activated myoglobin with tryptamine analogues by the Pictet-Spengler reaction. Ultraviolet (UV)/visible (vis) absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectral data revealed that the tertiary structure of myoglobin was not altered by the Pictet-Spengler reaction.
