The formation of D-amino acid residues in proteins is considered as one of the deterioration processes, and the determination of these D-amino acid residues is highly expected for the screening of new biomarkers under various disease conditions. In the present study, a two-dimensional (2D) HPLC-MS/MS system following the hydrolysis with deuterium chloride (2HCl/2H2O) and derivatization of amino acids with 4-fluoro-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-F) has been designed/developed and applied to the analysis of proteins stored under various conditions. As the target, 5 major D-amino acid residues (Ala, Asp, Glu, Pro and Ser) were selected. The analytical procedure was validated using a model peptide, NH2-Gly-Pro-Glu-Ala-Asp-Ser-Gly-OH, and the obtained calibration lines of %D for the 5 target amino acids were linear with correlation coefficients greater than 0.998. The RSD values for the intra-day precision and inter-day precision were lower than 5%. In most of the proteins tested, the amounts of the D-Ser and D-Asp residues increased during storage, and the highest value (14%, D-Ser) was observed in ovalbumin (OVA) after storage at pH 9.5 for 4 weeks.

A two-dimensional chiral high-performance liquid chromatographic (2D-HPLC) system has been established for the analysis of extraterrestrial amino acids. As the targets, 8 chiral amino acids (alanine (Ala), valine (Val), 2-aminobutyric acid (2AB), norvaline (nVal), N-methylalanine (N-MeAla), isovaline (iVal), 3AB and 3-aminoisobutyric acid (3AIB)) and 5 non-chiral amino acids (glycine (Gly), β-Ala, γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), sarcosine (Sar) and 2AIB) were selected. These amino acids were tagged with 4-fluoro-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-F), and non-enantioselectively separated by a capillary monolithic ODS column in the first dimension. The target fractions were automatically introduced into the second dimension and further separated by Pirkle-type enantioselective columns. By using this system, the 2D-HPLC separation of 21 components in small particles of a carbonaceous chondrite (Yamato 791191, Antarctic CM2 meteorite) could be successfully performed, and all of the target amino acids were observed. The D/L ratios of the chiral molecules are almost 50/50 for all of the tested proteinogenic and non-proteinogenic amino acids.
