Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) combined with collision-induced dissociation (CID) is a key method for primary structure determination of peptides and proteins. Collisionally activated peptides undergo statistical dissociation, forming a series of backbon ...
We present here the design of a new tandem mass spectrometer that combines an electrospray ion source with a cryogenically cooled ion trap for spectroscopic studies of cold, gas-phase ions. The ability to generate large ions in the gas phase without fragme ...
Proteomics is nowadays one of the most important research topics in life science for understanding many life activities from the molecular level. The objective is to find out proteins or modifications on proteins that regulate biological events, aging, dis ...
Mass spectrometry-based qualitative and quantitative (bio)molecular analysis is a corner stone in the state-of-the-art pipelines in systems biology and environmental sciences. High-resolution and efficient tandem mass spectrometry methods and techniques ar ...
Results of the mechanistic studies of free-electron based fragmentation methods addressing peptide and protein structure analysis with mass spectrometry (MS), electron capture dissociation (ECD) and electron ionization dissociation (EID), are presented. Se ...
We compare product-ion mass spectra produced by electron detachment dissociation (EDD) and electron photodetachment dissociation (EPD) of multi-deprotonated peptides on a Fourier transform and a linear ion trap mass spectrometer, respectively. Both methods ...
We have applied conformer-selective IR-UV double-resonance photofragment spectroscopy at low temperatures in an ion trap mass spectrometer for the spectroscopic characterization of peptide fragment ions. We investigate b- and a-type ions formed by collisio ...
MS (mass spectrometry) has been developed as an important analytical tool to study large molecules including polymer macromolecules and proteins. Its instrumentation technique including ionization methods, mass analyzer and detector systems has been greatl ...
Combined with high and ultra high pressure liquid chromatography, mass spectrometry-based peptide and protein structure analysis requires high resolution and mass accuracy achievable within short ion detection time. Although Fourier transform ion cyclotron ...
