Abstract
Protein and peptide glycation with reducing sugars through Maillard reaction is recognized as one of the most critical and fundamental reactions in food and in the human body. Amadori rearrangement products (ARPs) are formed at the initial stage of Maillard reaction and then may be converted into intermediate and advanced glycation products. We report here that using electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) to directly and rapidly characterize fragmentation behavior of ARPs in a Lysine-containing peptide-reducing sugars unambiguously model and identify the modification sites in glycated tri- and tetrapeptides. Tandem mass spectrometry (MS2) results showthat the sugar moiety was preferentially fragmented, whereby the neutral loss of small molecules, such as 18 Da (-H2O), 36 Da (-2 x H2O), 54 Da (-3 x H2O), 84 Da (-H2O-HCOH) and 162 Da from monosaccharide (glucose) moieties and 18 Da, 36 Da, 216 Da, 246 Da and 324 Da from disaccharide moieties. Among the fragmented ions, (M-84+H)+ of monosaccharides and (M-246+H)+ of disaccharides are relatively stable. Further multi-stage mass spectrometry (MS3) of (M-84+H)+ for tri- and longer peptides displays peptide sequence and glycation sites by providing modified y ions (y*), and/or modified b ions (b*) and even a modified a ion (a*). The study is useful to monitor and characterize PMTs of glycation in complex protein systems based on ESI-MS related techniques.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
