MÉTODO DE TRIAGEM DE MICROGININAS EM CIANOBACTÉRIAS POR LC-MS/MS

Cyanobacteria produce a wide variety of bioactive compounds, making them a highly promising group in the search for novel molecules with pharmacological and biotechnological properties. Among these, microginins attract attention for being peptides which inhibit angiotensin-converting enzyme, turning them into potential targets for hypertension and congestive heart failure treatment. This work describes a rapid and sensitive method for untarget screening of microginins in cyanobacteria extracts by LC-QqQ-MS/MS. These compounds are mostly characterized by containing 3-amino-2-hydroxy-decanoic ac...
