  • ESI, electrospray ionization; LC-MS/MS, liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry; PEITC, phenethyl isothiocyanate.

  • a Data represent the mean of two injections in which the difference between the protein masses for the two injections was within three mass units.

  • b,cData represent the mean and standard deviations from three and four injections, respectively.

  • d Difference in the protein mass between nonadducted and adducted peaks observed in each deconvoluted spectra.
