Development and validation of an indirect pulsed electrochemical detection method for monitoring the inhibition of Abl1 tyrosine kinase
Abstract
A new method for monitoring the enzyme inhibition of Abl1 tyrosine kinase by liquid chromatography-indirect pulsed electrochemical detection (LC-InPED) was developed. In this method, adsorption of a peptide analyte at the noble metal electrode suppresses the oxidation of polyols under alkaline condition to elicit an indirect response resulting in a negative peak of the target peptide. Among the reagents tested, D-gluconic acid sodium salt gave the best overall signal to noise (S/N) values for the indirect detection of p-Abltide, the product of Abl1 enzymatic reaction. 50 μM D-gluconic acid sodium salt dissolved in a mixture of 78% water-22% acetonitrile-0.03% trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) was used as the mobile phase. Chromatographic separation was achieved on an Alltima C18 (I.D. 5 μm; 250 mm × 4.6 mm) column with the mobile phase flow rate of 0.5 ml/min. 0.5M sodium hydroxide was added post-column to maintain alkaline conditions in the PED cell. The limit of quantification (LOQ) was 0.2 μM for p-Abltide, which was about 50-fold lower than direct PED analysis. The residual plot of the linear calibration curve indicated a good fit with a linear model within the investigated concentration range of p-Abltide. Intra- and inter-day pr...Continue Reading
