Mass spectrometry is a powerful analytical technique, which has become invaluable across a wide range of scientific fields, such as "omics" sciences (e.g., proteomics), doping control and forensic sciences, drug development, environmental analysis, geologi ...
Enkephalins are efficient pain-relief drugs that bind to transmembrane opioid receptors. One key structural param- eter that governs the pharmacological activity of these opioid peptides and is typically determined from condensed-phase structures is the di ...
Gas-phase techniques are promising for studying intrinsically disordered peptides and proteins, as they can be implemented in a conformer-selective way. One of the issues that prevent them from finding a broader use is the question of to which extent the s ...
Mass spectrometry (MS) has emerged over the last two decades as the analytical technique of choice in systems-level protein studies, known as proteomics. Two are the MS-based approaches generally applied to proteomics: bottom-up (BU), which relies on the p ...
The physical chemistry of bio molecules in the gas phase is progressing at a rapid pace. One of the most promising areas is the determination of the conformations of biologically important molecules. Quantitative determination of their relative energies is ...
Understanding the relation between the gas-phase structure of biological molecules and their solution-phase structure is important when attempting to use gas-phase techniques to address biologically relevant questions. Directly after electrospray ionizatio ...
The accurate and unambiguous detection of post-translational modifications in proteins and peptides remains a challenging task. We report here the use of cold ion spectroscopy for the identification of phosphorylated tyrosine residues in peptides. This app ...
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 ...
Here we present a molecular architecture that can reversibly change the geometric conformation of its π-system backbone via irradiation with two different wavelengths. The proposed ‘molecular actuator’ consists of a photoswitchable azobenzene orthogonally ...
We present in this work experiments that push the limits of cold ion spectroscopy to the study of complex peptides and small proteins in the gas phase. Although the low temperature attainable in a cold ion trap greatly simplifies the electronic spectra of ...
