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 decoupled electron-transfer dissociation (ETD) and collision-induced dissociation of charge-reduced species (CRCID) events to probe the lifetimes of intermediate radical species in ETD-based ion trap tandem mass spectrometry of peptides. Short-lived int ...
The efficiency of dissocn. of macromol. ions during the capture of electrons in the ion trap of the ICR mass spectrometer is significantly enhanced by using an improved system of injection of low-energy electrons. The fragmentation time for an ion ensemble ...
In this thesis report, we describe a novel home-built instrument designed to study the spectroscopy of biomolecular ions in the gas phase and at low temperature, and we present the first experimental results obtained on protonated aromatic amino acids. The ...
The design features of the injection system are analyzed and exptl. measurements are performed to define its parameters and energy characteristics of low-energy electron beams obtained for the electron capture dissocn. in Fourier transform ion cyclotron re ...
Electron capture dissocn. (ECD) of polypeptide cations was obtained with pencil and hollow electron beams for both sidekick and gas-assisted dynamic ion trapping (GADT) using Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS) with an el ...
The function of a peptide is intimately connected to its structure, which in solution is the result of the balance between non-covalent interactions within the molecule and the molecule-solvent interactions. Theory has the power to predict the properties o ...
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 ...
A review. The anal. utility of the electron capture dissocn. (ECD) technique, developed by McLafferty and co-workers, has substantially improved peptide and protein characterization using Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-M ...
