Abstract
The present invention further provides novel synthetic control peptides containing from about 3 to 100 natural amino acid residues that are designed for use in monitoring the proper operation of amino acid sequencers and to monitor peptide or protein cleavage reactions. The control peptide, or mixture of control peptides, are designed to obtain data for many or all common, uncommon and difficult to measure amino acids within 15 sequencer cycles and to provide cleavage sites for at least 4 different amino acid cleavage reactants.
