In this article the authors report on a combinatorial natural product discovery methodology that uses a viral vector system to transfer secondary metabolite-related enzymes from C. roseus to tobacco cell cultures. Using high-resolution separation techniques, including HPLC, CE and MS, they describe the analysis of secondary metabolite patterns.
Multi-Step Preparative LC–MS Workflow for Peptide Purification
March 21st 2025This article introduces a multi-step preparative purification workflow for synthetic peptides using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS). The process involves optimizing separation conditions, scaling-up, fractionating, and confirming purity and recovery, using a single LC–MS system. High purity and recovery rates for synthetic peptides such as parathormone (PTH) are achieved. The method allows efficient purification and accurate confirmation of peptide synthesis and is suitable for handling complex preparative purification tasks.
