Opis:
Sequencing of polysaccharides is difficult to achieve because of the heterogeneous nature of the polysaccharide structure, high molecular weight (the size of a polysaccharide varies between approximately 16,000 and 16,000,000 daltons (Da)), and polydispersity of the polymer chains. The following information is essential to determine the primary structure of a polysaccharide: • monosaccharide composition: nature and molar ratios of the monosaccharide building blocks; • relative configuration of monosaccharides: d or l; • anomeric configuration: α- or β-configuration of the glycosidic linkage; • ring size: presence and distinction of furanosidic and pyranosidic rings; • linkage patterns: linkage positions between the monosugars and branches; • sequences of monosaccharide residues in the repeating units; • substitutions: position and nature of OH–modifications, such as O–phosphorylation, acetylation, O-sulfation, etc.; • molecular weight and molecular weight distribution. A polysaccharide extracted from plant materials or food products is usually purified before being subjected to structural analysis. The first step of characterizing a polysaccharide is the determination of its purity, which is reflected by its chemical composition, including total sugar content, level of uronic acids, proteins, ash, and moisture of the preparation. The second step is the determination of monosaccharide composition, which will unveil structural information such as the number of monosaccharides present in the polysaccharide and how many of each sugar unit. NMR spectroscopy has become the most powerful and noninvasive physicochemical technique for determining polysaccharide structures. It can provide detailed structural information of carbohydrates, including identification of monosaccharide composition, elucidation of α- or β-anomeric configurations, establishment of linkage patterns, and sequences of the sugar units in oligosaccharides and/or polysaccharides. Monosaccharide composition can be determined also by analysis of totally acid hydrolyzed polysacharide using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or gas chromatography (GC). The ring size and glycosidic linkage positions of sugar units in a polysaccharide could be established by methylation analysis and/or cleavage reduction. The anomeric configuration is conventionally determined by oxidation, and this method can be combined with mass spectrometry to obtain more structural information.

Opis:
Chemically modified nucleotides, which are not normally present in genetic material, are called DN A adducts. This type of DN A modifications (damage) is directly related to processes of mutagenesis and carcinogenesis. Elevated levels of DN A adducts present in genetic material reflect exposure of humans to carcinogenic factors and are markers of increased risk of cancer [1]. For this reason different methods useful for quantitative and qualitative analyses of DN A adducts are used in the field of cancer prevention and research (Tab. 1). Enzymatically-catalyzed methylation of cytosine, observed mostly in so called CpG islands, is a frequent endogenous modification of genetic material. Such a DN A methylation is a key factor involved in regulation of gene expression, and methylation status of oncogenes and tumor supressor genes is an important biomarker of carcinogenesis. As such, analytical methods for assessment of DN A methylation are of great importance for molecular diagnostics of cancer. During the last decade significant progress has been made in methods available for quantitative, qualitative and structural analyses of biological molecules. Among intensively developed tools for bioanalyses are methods of mass spectrometry. Spectrometers that are based on two methods of ionization, namely electrospray ionization (ESI ) [30] and matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization (MALDI ) [48], are particularly suitable for analyses of biological macromolecules: proteins and nucleic acids. Currently available mass spectrometers, together with microscale methods for sample preparation and separation, significantly increased sensitivity and accessible mass range of analyses. New generation of “user-friendly” instruments is developed to bring the techniques directly into the workplaces of biological and clinical investigators. This review demonstrates representative examples of mass spectrometry techniques used for qualitative analyses of nucleotide modifications and adducts present in genetic material of humans. In this field several methods base on spectrometers with electrospray ionization. Generated ions are separated according to their mass-to-charge ratio in an analyzer by electric fields; among different ion analyzers frequently used in this methods are single or triple quadrupole and ion traps (Fig. 1). Among other methods available for assessment of DN A adducts is so called Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (Fig. 2) [41]. The most frequently applied method for the assessment of DN A methylation is based on methylation-specific PCR reaction. Products of such PCR reactions are analyzed using MALDI mass spectrometry [54] (Fig. 3). In summary, new powerful methods of mass spectrometry that made available qualitative analyses of damage and modifications of human genetic material found their important place in modern biological and medical laboratories.
