Accession #  887 PSI-MS Name  Interim Name  MDCC
Description  covalent linkage of maleimidyl coumarin probe (Molecular Probes D-10253)
Alt. Description  CAS 156571-46-9
Alt. Description  7-diethylamino-3-((((2-maleimidyl)ethyl)amino)carbonyl)coumarin
Composition  H(21) C(20) N(3) O(5) Monoisotopic  383.148121 Average  383.3978
Specificity Definition 1
Site  C Position  Anywhere Classification  Chemical derivative
Comment  Due to the mechanism of maleimidyl modification of Cys, the molecular weight of MDCC equals the mass shift created upon crossllinking (no chemical leaving group). During MS/MS, MDCC can reasonably be predicted to fragment readily and at various positions.
