MALDI mass spectrometric analysis of the [3H]B9209-005–bound P-gp peptide (fraction of HPLC signal 2 in Fig. 6) after first Edman coupling procedure. For the Edman coupling, the lyophilized HPLC fraction was incubated with 5% PITC for 4 h at 30°C. The ion signals in the spectrum are labeled with the average mass and the number of phenylthiocarbamoyl (PTC) groups that are incorporated (compare Fig. 7).

    • 3-a Mass increment of PTC, 135 amu.

    • 3-b Compare Table 2.
