AbstractThe different mobility equations that have appeared in the literature for predicting peptide mobility were compared. A modified equation that relates the mobility of individual proteolytic species of a peptide to its composition has been obtained: Jo = 1758 log(1 + 0.297q)lM0.41', where p is the electrophoretic mobility in 10e9 m'ls -V, q is the integral value of the charge of the species and M its molecular mass. Also, a rough estimation of the set of pK, values for a peptide was developed. The usefulness of this equation together with a computer program for predicting separations of compounds by capillary zone electrophoresis is demonstrated, employing real electropherograms of peptides from the literature or from experiments.
