摘要: Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) from 3 different species was cleaved by neutral endopeptidase (NEP) and the products separated HPLC. The newly formed were identified fast atom bombardment or nebulizer-assisted electrospray mass spectrometry to elucidate sites of proteolysis. Porcine BNP at Arg8-Leu9 Ser14-Leu15 bonds. Rat Arg23-Leu24 Arg30-Leu31 Human Pro2-Lys3, Met4-Val5 Arg17-Leu18 Cys-Phe bond which is present in all not NEP.
