Metal ion-binding of synthetic peptides containing HxH and CxxC motifs
was investigated by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS
) and metal chelate affinity chromatography. A high affinity of Ni2+ a
nd CU2+ to HxH containing sequences was found. Based on their natural
metal ion-binding potential it was possible to include metal affinity
chromatography in the purification process of two proteins without usi
ng an additional His-tag sequence: ATPase-439, a P type ATPase from He
licobacter pylori and the amyloid precursor protein (APP). (C) 1998 El
