Multiplexed Middle-Down Mass Spectrometry as a Method for Revealing Light and Heavy Chain Connectivity in a Monoclonal Antibody

Yury Tsybin, Natalia Gasilova, Laure Menin, Anton Kozhinov, Konstantin Nagornov, Luca Fornelli, Kristina Srzentic, Daniel Ayoub

Pairing light and heavy chains in monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) using top-down (TD) or middle-down (MD) mass spectrometry (MS) may complement the sequence information on single chains provided by high-throughput genomic sequencing and bottom-up proteomics, ...

Top-down analysis of immunoglobulin G isotypes 1 and 2 with electron transfer dissociation on a high-field Orbitrap mass spectrometer

Yury Tsybin, Luca Fornelli, Daniel Ayoub

The increasing importance of immunoglobulins G (IgGs) as biotherapeutics calls for improved structural characterization methods designed for these large (similar to 150 kDa) macromolecules. Analysis workflows have to be rapid, robust, and require minimal s ...

Distinguishing analyte from noise components in mass spectra of complex samples: where to cut the noise?

Yury Tsybin, Anton Kozhinov, Luca Fornelli, Konstantin Zhurov

Fourier transform mass spectrometry (FTMS) enables comprehensive analysis of complex molecular mixtures. Given the broad intensity ranges of components in the mass spectra, it is imperative to accurately determine a noise threshold level above which peak a ...

Practical Considerations for Improving the Productivity of Mass Spectrometry-based Proteomics

Yury Tsybin, Anton Kozhinov, Luca Fornelli, Kristina Srzentic, Unige Anna Laskay, Oxana Upir

Mass spectrometry (MS) is currently the most sensitive and selective analytical technique for routine peptide and protein structure analysis. Top-down proteomics is based on tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) of intact proteins, where multiply charged precur ...

Top-down analysis of 30–80 kDa proteins by electron transfer dissociation time-of-flight mass spectrometry

Yury Tsybin, Luca Fornelli, Julien Parra

Electron transfer dissociation (ETD)-based top-down mass spectrometry (MS) is the method of choice for in-depth structure characterization of large peptides, small- and medium-sized proteins, and non-covalent protein complexes. Here, we describe the perfor ...
