Abstract
The structure of ligands has a significant influence on the separation properties of alkyl and aromatic phases in reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Compared with alkyl phases, the effect of stereoconfiguration of aromatic ligands on the retention and selectivity of stationary phases has rarely been addressed. To illustrate the issue, three terphenyl isomer-bonded stationary phases were prepared via the coupling chemistry of isocyanate with terphenyl amine isomers, 3,4-diphenylaniline, 2,4-diphenylaniline and 4-amino-p-terphenyl, respectively. The retention behaviors of stationary phases were assessed in terms of retention strength, selectivity, hydrophobic and π-π interaction by five kinds of solutes. It is found that the selectivity towards the solutes is slightly larger on the branched m-terphenyl-bonded phase (m-π3) than o-terphenyl-bonded phase (o-π3) but is significantly improved on the chain p-terphenyl-bonded phase (p-π3). The results can be interpreted by the ease self-adjustment of the conformation of the chain p-terphenyl ligand and the smaller steric effect of p-π3 towards the insertion of solutes into the ligand brushes. In addition, the p-π3 yields excellent selective separation towards aromatic solutes. These findings are of significance in the design of aromatic stationary phases.

Abstract
Filamentous fungi of the genus Stilbella are recognized as an abundant source of naturally occurring α-aminoisobutyric acid-containing peptides. The culture broth of Stilbella (Trichoderma) flavipes CBS 146.81 yielded a mixture of peptides named stilboflavins (SF), and these were isolated and separated by preparative TLC into groups named SF-A, SF-B, and SF-C. Although all three of these groups resolved as single spots on thin-layer chromatograms, HPLC analysis revealed that each of the groups represents very microheterogeneous mixtures of closely related peptides. Here, we report on the sequence analysis of SF-C peptides, formerly isolated by preparative TLC. HPLC coupled to QqTOF-ESI-HRMS provided the sequences of 10 16-residue peptides and five 19-residue peptides, all of which were N-terminally acetylated. In contrast to the previously described SF-A and SF-B peptaibols, SF-C peptaibols contain Ser-Alaol or Ser-Leuol, which are rarely found as C-termini, and repetitive Leu-Aib-Gly sequences, which have not been detected in peptaibols before. Taking the previously determined sequences of SF-A and SF-B into account, the entirety of peptides produced by S. flavipes (the 'peptaibiome') approaches or exceeds 100 non-ribosomally biosynthesized peptaibiotics.

Abstract
Procedures derived from bioinspired mechanisms are increasingly being used to create novel materials based on the principles of green chemistry. Thymine, a nucleic acid base in DNA, has the propensity to both hydrogen bond and photodimerize. Photodimerization of thymine occurs when irradiated at wavelengths of >270 nm and can be reversed by irradiation at wavelengths of <250 nm. In this investigation, n-alkyl-linked bis-thymines have been supramolecularly aligned with poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) templates by non-covalent hydrogen bonding, and photopolymerized in the solid state. Photo-depolymerization of the products was performed to complete the reversible polymerization.

Effect of the density of the C18 surface coverage on the adsorption mechanism of a cationic compound and on the silanol activity of the stationary phase in reversed phase liquid chromatography. J Chromatogr A 2006; 1132:51-66.

Abstract
RPLC columns with different surface coverages (a C(1) endcapped column with a bonding density of 3.92 micromol/m(2) and four C(18)-bonded, endcapped columns, with octadecyl chain densities of 0.42, 1.01, 2.03, and 3.15 micromol/m(2)) were used to investigate the effects of the density of the surface coverage of RPLC columns on the adsorption mechanism of a cationic compound, amitriptyline chloride, and on the silanol activity of these columns. The mobile phases used were acetonitrile-water (30/70, v/v) solutions, buffered at either pH 2.7 or pH 6.9. At pH 2.7, the residual silanol groups are not ionized. At pH 6.9, some of these groups are ionized and these surface anions can strongly interact with the cationic compound. The adsorption isotherms were measured by frontal analysis (FA) at pH 2.7 and by frontal analysis by characteristic points (FACP) at pH 6.9, because the very high retention observed at neutral pH made FA measurements excessively long and poorly accurate. The adsorption energy distributions (AEDs) were calculated when possible, according to the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm. A bimodal and a trimodal energy distribution were found for all the columns at pH 2.7 and 6.9, respectively. The third site measured at pH 6.9 was attributed to the strong ion-exchange interactions between the ionized silanol groups and the amitriptylinium cation. The contribution of the ionized silanol groups to the overall retention is maximum for the phases with intermediary bonding densities (1.01 and 2.03 micromol/m(2)). The peak tailing is most pronounced for the lowest (C(1) column) and the highest (3.15 micromol/m(2)) surface coverages.

Abstract
The effect of the bonding density of the octadecyl chains onto the same silica on the adsorption and retention properties of low molecular weight compounds (phenol, caffeine, and sodium 2-naphthalene sulfonate) was investigated. The same mobile phase (methanol:water, 20:80, v/v) and temperature (T = 298 K) were applied and two duplicate columns (A and B) from each batch of packing material (neat silica, simply endcapped or C1 phase, 0.42, 1.01, 2.03, and 3.15 micromol/m2 of C18 alkyl chains) were tested. Adsorption data of the three compounds were acquired by frontal analysis (FA) and the adsorption energy distributions (AEDs) were calculated using the expectation-maximization method. Results confirmed earlier findings in linear chromatography of a retention maximum at an intermediate bonding density. From a general point of view, the saturation capacity of the adsorbent tends to decrease with increasing bonding density, due to the vanishing space intercalated between the C18 bonded chains and to the decrease of the specific surface area of the stationary phase. The equilibrium constants are maximum for an intermediary bonding density (approximately 2 micromol/m2). An enthalpy-entropy compensation was found for the thermodynamic parameters of the isotherm data. Weak equilibrium constants (small deltaH) and high saturation capacities (large deltaS) were observed at low bonding densities, higher equilibrium constants and lower saturation capacities at high bonding densities, the combinations leading to similar apparent retention in RPLC. The use of a low surface coverage column is recommended for preparative purposes.

Abstract
A polymer-based RP sorbent was prepared by immobilizing a poly(ethylene-co-acrylic acid) copolymer with an acid mass fraction of 5% on silica by using a 3-glycidoxypropyl linkage. 13C cross-polarization/magic angle spinning NMR spectroscopy of the sorbent, either in the dry state or suspended in the mobile phase, showed an increase in mobility at elevated temperatures. Alkyl chain segments with gauche conformations were more mobile than chain segments with trans conformations. The strength of the 13C-1H dipolar couplings in the alkyl chains was measured using the constant time dipolar and chemical shift pulse sequence, revealing less molecular motion for the trans conformation. Non-linear van't Hoff plots were observed for separations of shape-constrained solutes (such as geometric beta-carotene isomers and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons). At higher temperatures, the retention behavior was similar to that of monomeric C18 sorbents, whereas at ambient and lower temperatures, enhanced shape-selective properties were exhibited similar to those of polymeric C30 sorbents.

Abstract
The retention behavior on silica gels bonded to C18 and C1 alkyl ligands of different densities was studied in reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) from the viewpoints of two extrathermodynamic relationships, enthalpy-entropy compensation (EEC) and linear free energy relationship (LFER). First, the four tests proposed by Krug et al. were applied to the values of the retention equilibrium constants (K) normalized by the alkyl ligand density. These tests showed that a real EEC of the retention equilibrium originates from substantial physico-chemical effects. Second, we derived a new model based on the EEC to explain the LFER between the retention equilibria under different RPLC conditions. The new model indicates how the slope and intercept of the LFER are correlated to the compensation temperatures derived from the EEC analyses and to several parameters characterizing the molecular contributions to the changes in enthalpy and entropy. Finally, we calculated K under various RPLC conditions from only one original experimental K datum by assuming that the contributions of the C18 and C1 ligands to K are additive and that their contributions are proportional to the density of each ligand. The estimated K values are in agreement with the corresponding experimental data, demonstrating that our model is useful to explain the variations of K due to changes in the RPLC conditions.

Abstract
The present study extends the utility of reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) to monitor folding and stability of de novo designed synthetic two-stranded alpha-helical coiled-coils. Thus, we have compared the effect of temperature on the RP-HPLC retention behaviour of both oxidized (two identical five-heptad alpha-helical peptides linked by a disulfide bridge) and reduced coiled-coil analogues with various amino acids substituted into the hydrophobic core of the coiled-coil. We were able to correlate the RP-HPLC retention behaviour of the oxidized analogues over the temperature range of 10 to 80 degrees C with the stability of the analogues as determined by conventional thermal and chemical denaturation approaches. In addition, the contribution of a disulfide bridge to coiled-coil stability was highlighted by comparing the elution behaviour of the oxidized and reduced analogues. Overall, we demonstrate the excellent potential of "temperature profiling" by RP-HPLC to monitor differences in oligomerization state and protein stability.

Abstract
The present study sets out to extend the utility of reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) by demonstrating its ability to monitor dimerization and unfolding of de novo designed synthetic amphipathic alpha-helical peptides on stationary phases of varying hydrophobicity. Thus, we have compared the effect of temperature (5-80 degrees C) on the RP-HPLC (C8 or cyano columns) elution behaviour of mixtures of peptides encompassing amphipathic alpha-helical structure, amphipathic alpha-helical structure with L- or D-substitutions or non-amphipathic alpha-helical structure. By comparing the retention behaviour of the helical peptides to a peptide of negligible secondary structure (a random coil), we rationalize that "temperature profiling" by RP-HPLC can monitor association of peptide molecules, either through oligomerization or aggregation, or monitor unfolding of alpha-helical peptides with increasing temperature. We believe that the conformation-dependent response of peptides to RP-HPLC under changing temperature has implications both for general analysis and purification of peptides but also for the de novo design of peptides and proteins.

Abstract
HPLC impurity profile method development for a doxorubicin-heptapeptide conjugate included significant changes of the separation profile with diluent, eluent and pH. These separation variables were also temperature-dependent with a shift in retention from 35 to 45 degrees C. There was also a direct relationship of temperature with LC retention, and a pH minimum at 5.9. Atypical dependence of the impurity profile on diluent at a k' of 18 led to further investigation. A large change in retention by several minutes was a function of both the organic eluent composition and temperature between 15 and 30 degrees C. Several Van't Hoff temperature studies from 5 to 65 degrees C on several column types resulted in non-linear plots. Analysis of the molecular subunits suggested that the peptide portion of the analyte influenced the non-linear retention behavior. The stationary phase type was not a significant factor causing non-linearity. Circular dichroism-temperature studies indicated a notable transition in ellipticity for the amine regions (198-202 nm) that occurred between 39 and 44 degrees C. This transition temperature range coincided with the results of the Van't Hoff analysis, between 35 and 44 degrees C, to indicate that these effects were not primarily stationary phase induced.

Abstract
From the culture broths of the mold Stilbella flavipes CBS 146.81, a mixture of polypeptides could be isolated by adsorption on XAD polystyrene resin and purified by Sephadex LH-20 chromatography. Using preparative thin-layer chromatography (TLC) three groups of peptides, named stilboflavins (SF) A, B, and C could be separated. Each of the groups showed microheterogeneity when investigated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Employing on-line HPLC-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry in the positive and negative ionization mode, together with gas chromatography-selected ion monitoring mass spectrometry, enantioselective GC and quantitative amino acid analysis, the sequences of stilboflavins A and B could be determined. Exchange of Glu in stilboflavins A peptides (acidic) against Gln in stilboflavins B peptides (neutral) is the rational for different polarity of the peptide groups and their separatability by TLC. Since SF A and B are bioactive N-acetylated 20-residue peptides with a high proportion of alpha-aminoisobutyric acid and C-terminal bonded amino alcohols (either leucinol, isoleucinol or valinol) the peptides belong to the group of peptaibol antibiotics.

Abstract
While the choice of stationary phase, organic modifier, and gradient strength can have significant effects on biomolecule separations, mobile phase additives can also have a significant effect on the chromatographic selectivity, recovery, efficiency and resolution. Given the importance of stationary phase coverage, the beneficial, silanol-masking properties of amines, and the potential for selectivity modification through ion-pair interactions, cyclohexylamine was examined as a mobile phase additive and compared with triethylamine and trifluoroacetic acid. Greatly improved separation was possible when cyclohexylamine was used as compared with phosphate buffer, and cyclohexylamine did not require purification before use, while triethylamine required distillation before 'clean' chromatograms were obtained.

Abstract
The retentions of 28 peptides in reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography (RPTLC) were determined on cellulose and on impregnated cellulose and alumina layers with 1-propanol as the organic component of the mobile phase. Each peptide showed a support matrix effect: their RM values first decreased to a minimum, then increased with increasing 1-propanol concentration. On cellulose layers only the increasing phase was observed. The retention behaviour of peptides was adequately described with a quadratic or linear function, but the slope value of the linear function had a positive value. The results demonstrate that the support matrix effect can be observed on non-silica supports and it may occur in reversed-phase chromatography in the case of polar solutes and supports with free adsorptive centres on their surfaces. Both the intercept and slope values of the function are needed to describe the lipophilicity of peptides, but the correlation is not strong enough for the determination of the lipophilicity of peptides by RPTLC. Principal component analysis showed that the peptides form distinct clusters on the basis of their retention characteristics: peptides containing a basic amino acid, peptides with a ring structure in the amino acid side-chain and peptides containing uncharged amino acids.

Abstract
The thermodynamic behaviour of three peptides, bombesin, beta-endorphin and glucagon, was studied under reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic conditions. Experimental data related to the interactive surface contact area (S values) and solute affinity (log k0) were derived over a range of temperatures between 5 and 85 degrees C. These experimental conditions allowed changes in the secondary structure of the solute to be monitored. The influence of the nature of the stationary phase ligand on the relative conformational stability of the three peptides was analysed by acquiring data with n-octadecyl silica (C18) and n-butyl silica (C4) sorbents. Values for the relative changes in entropy and enthalpy associated with the interactive process were also determined. The results provide further insight into the factors involved with the stabilization of secondary structure and the mechanism of the interaction of peptides with hydrophobic surfaces.

Abstract
The lipophilicities of 22 peptides were determined by reversed-phase thin-layer chromatography using methanol as organic modifier in the concentration range 0-90 vol.-% on silica supports with surface pH values of 2.0,4.5,6.0,7.5 and 9.0. Only one of the 22 peptides (Trp-Ala-Ile) followed the general rule, i.e., its RM value decreased linearly with increasing proportion of organic modifier over the whole concentration range. Most peptides exhibited typical silanophilic retention behaviour, the RM value decreasing with increasing organic phase concentration in the lower concentration range and then increasing with further increase in the proportion of organic modifier. In some instances the lipophilicity increased linearly with increasing proportion of methanol. The silanophilic effect depended not only on the structure of the peptide, but also on the surface pH of the silica support. The retention behaviour of peptides can be well described by a polynomial function, the linear and quadratic forms of methanol concentration and surface pH being the independent variables. Principal component analysis showed that the presence of a ring structure in the peptides has the greatest impact on their retention behaviour, the overall polarity (basic, neutral or acidic) being of secondary importance. The number of amino acids in the peptide has a negligible effect on the chromatographic behaviour.

Abstract
The influence of eight different displacer salts on the bandwidth properties of four globular proteins separated by a high-performance anion-exchange chromatography has been investigated. Proteins were eluted under gradient conditions with a range of alkali metal halide salts, in which the anion and cation were varied in the series F-, Cl- and Br- and Li+, Na+ and K+, respectively. The experimentally observed bandwidths (sigma v,exp) were found to deviate significantly from peak widths (sigma v,calc) predicted on the basis of plate theory for small molecules. For data accumulated under conditions of varied gradient time and constant flow-rate the solute bandwidth ratios (sigma v,exp/sigma v,calc) increased in the order Br- less than Cl- less than F- at low values of the gradient steepness parameter, b, or increasing column residence times. In addition, systematic changes in the cation influenced the bandwidth ratios (sigma v,exp/sigma v,calc) in the order K+ less than Na+ less than Li+. Significant deviations between predicted and observed bandwidth values were also observed under elution conditions of constant gradient time and varied flow-rate. The results of the present study further demonstrate the complex nature of the interaction between protein solutes and coulombic chromatographic surfaces.

Abstract
The influence of different elution modes, gradient times and flow-rates on the relative retention of closely related variants of carbonic anhydrase and ovalbumin has been investigated using high-performance ion-exchange chromatography. Three isoform species of carbonic anhydrase and four isoforms related to ovalbumin eluted by anion-exchange chromatography were characterised by isoelectric focusing and sodium dodecylsulphate-polyacrylamide electrophoresis. Gradient retention data were collected using several different alkali metal halides as the displacer salt, in order to systematically evaluate the effect on selectivity of different anions and cations in the series F-, Cl- and Br-, and Li+, Na+ and K+. While the selectivity between the different ovalbumin isoform species remained essentially constant with each displacer salt, solute Zc-values [J. Chromatogr., 458 (1988) 27] varied with the type of salt. In contrast, non-parallel retention plots were obtained for the carbonic anhydrase isoforms with the Zc values different for each isoform. Furthermore, significant differences in chromatographic behaviour for these proteins were observed between experiments carried out under gradient elution conditions with either varied gradient time and constant flow-rates or fixed gradient time and varied flow-rates. These results are discussed in terms of the influence of column residence time and protein-salt interactions of the solute's interactive ionotope and the concomitant effects these structural perturbations may have on chromatographic behaviour.

Abstract
The influence of temperature on the gradient elution properties of synthetic peptides related to residues [6-13] of human growth hormone, e.g., Leu1-Ser-Arg-Leu-Phe-Asp-Asn-Ala8, has been studied by using both an octadecylsilica and a polymeric fluorocarbon stationary phase. Correlation of changes in the solute hydrophobic contact area and affinity for the stationary phase, as given by S and log k0 values respectively, revealed that the alpha- and imide forms are more conformationally stable than the beta-linked peptide. In addition, negative values of the standard entropy change, delta S0 assoc, for the transfer of the solute to the stationary phase, were observed for both alpha- and beta-linked peptides. These results are indicative of an increased ordering of the system upon solute adsorption and implies that the open-chain peptides exist in solution in more flexible conformations, while the helical structure of the cyclised imide is more rigid and constrained. The implications of the relative conformational stability of these peptides in their role as insulin-potentiating agents is also discussed.

Abstract
The gradient elution behaviour of eight synthetic peptides encompassing residues [6-13] of human growth hormone, i.e. Leu1-Ser-Arg-Leu-Phe-Asp-Asn-Ala8, has been investigated, by using an octadecylsilica, a butylsilica, and a polymeric fluorocarbon as stationary phases. Quantitative expressions, derived from the linear-solvent-strength theory and the general plate-height theory, were used to assess the influence of gradient time on the relative retention and bandwidths of these peptides. It was demonstrated that the chromatographic properties of the cyclised imide form involving Asp6 are consistent with the formation of a highly stabilised amphipathic helix, while the open-chain alpha- and beta-rearranged forms eluted as less rigid structures. The putative hydrophobic contact region consists of two leucine residues and one phenylalanine residue. From an analysis of the retention and bandwidth data obtained at pH 9, a surface-induced molecular reorientation of the beta-linked peptides was observed, in which the repulsion of the aspartyl carboxyl group from the hydrophobic stationary phase directs the C-terminal moiety away from the sorbent surface. Furthermore, the fluorocarbon sorbent exhibited characteristics favourable for use in preparative purification of these peptides. The present results demonstrate the sensitivity of reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) to monitor small changes in the interactive behaviour of peptides with hydrocarbonaceous ligands and aquo-organic solvent combinations in reversed-phase systems. These observations further illustrate the general utility of HPLC for investigating the conformational behaviour of peptides at solid-liquid interfaces.
