Several forms of diacetyl-reducing enzyme were found to exist in the human liver cytosol. Three (DAR-2, DAR-5, and DAR-7) of them were purified as a single band on SDS-PAGE by a combination of a few kinds of column chromatographies. The in-gel tryptic digests of the purified enzymes were analyzed by nano-liquid chromatography (LC)/Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT ICR MS), which provided peptide masses at a ppm-level accuracy. The enzymes, DAR-2, DAR-5, and DAR-7, were identified as alcohol dehydrogenase beta subunit (ADH2), carbonyl reductase (CBR1), and aldehyde reductase (AKR1A1), respectively, by peptide mass fingerprinting. In addition, an alternating-scan acquisition of nano-LC/FT ICR mass spectra, i.e., switching of normal acquisition conditions and in-source fragmentation conditions scan by scan, provided sets of parent and fragment ion masses of many of the tryptic peptides in a single LC/MS run. The peptide sequence-tag information at the ppm-level accuracy was used to further confirm the protein identities. It was demonstrated that nano-LC/FT ICR MS can be used for rigorous protein identification at a subpicomole level as an alternative technique to nano-LC/MS/MS.

D005583	Fourier Analysis	Analysis based on the mathematical function first formulated by Jean-Baptiste-Joseph Fourier in 1807. The function, known as the Fourier transform, describes the sinusoidal pattern of any fluctuating pattern in the physical world in terms of its amplitude and its phase. It has broad applications in biomedicine, e.g., analysis of the x-ray crystallography data pivotal in identifying the double helical nature of DNA and in analysis of other molecules, including viruses, and the modified back-projection algorithm universally used in computerized tomography imaging, etc. (From Segen, The Dictionary of Modern Medicine, 1992)	Fourier Series,Fourier Transform,Analysis, Cyclic,Analysis, Fourier,Cyclic Analysis,Analyses, Cyclic,Cyclic Analyses,Series, Fourier,Transform, Fourier
