A gas phase approach for glycan analysis: Combining ultrahigh-resolution ion mobility spectrometry with cryogenic vibrational spectroscopy

Ahmed Ben Faleh

The last decades have been punctuated by the development of revolutionary analytical technologies that have enabled the analysis of biomolecular structures and unraveled the roles they play in biological systems. However, certain classes of biomolecules re ...

Non-covalent interactions are ubiquitous in nature. The diversity and functionality of these interactions are employed by nature as a universal tool for building the molecular mechanism of life. Although weak, these interactions play a key role in both for ...

Radiative cooling of carbon cluster anions C(2n+1)(-)C2n+1- (n = 3-5) is investigated using the cryogenic electrostatic ion storage ring DESIREE. Two different strategies are applied to infer infrared emission on slow (milliseconds to seconds) and ultraslo ...

UV and IR Spectroscopy of Transition Metal–Crown Ether Complexes in the Gas Phase: Mn2+(benzo-15-crown-5)(H2O)0–2

Thomas Rizzo, Yoshiya Inokuchi

Ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) and IR–UV double-resonance spectroscopy are performed for bare and microhydrated complexes of Mn2+(benzo-15-crown-5), Mn2+(B15C5)(H2O)n (n = 0–2), under cold (∼10 K) gas-phase conditions. Density functional theory (DFT) ...

Microhydration of Dibenzo-18-Crown-6 Complexes with K+, Rb+, and Cs+ Investigated by Cold UV and IR Spectroscopy in the Gas Phase

Thomas Rizzo, Yoshiya Inokuchi

In this Article, we examine the hydration structure of dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6) complexes with K+, Rb+, and Cs+ ion in the gas phase. We measure well-resolved UV photodissociation (UVPD) spectra of K+·DB18C6·(H2O)n, Rb+·DB18C6·(H2O)n, and Cs+·DB18C6·(H2 ...

Initial Steps of Amyloidogenic Peptide Assembly Revealed by Cold-Ion Spectroscopy

Vladimir Kopysov, Natalia Nagornova

The early stages of fibril formation are difficult to capture in solution. We use cold-ion spectroscopy to examine an 11-residue peptide derived from the protein transthyretin and clusters of this fibre-forming peptide containing up to five units in the ga ...

Wiley-Blackwell2018

The pivotal theory of molecular biology states that the structure of biomolecules is directly related to their function in living systems. In this way, the structural investigation of biological molecules allows understanding and intervening in the fundame ...

UV and IR Spectroscopy of Cryogenically Cooled, Lanthanide-Containing Ions in the Gas Phase

Thomas Rizzo, Yoshiya Inokuchi

We measure UV and IR spectra in the gas phase for EuOH+, EuCl+, and TbO+ ions, which are produced by an electrospray ionization source and cooled to similar to 10 K in a cold, 22-pole ion trap. The UV photodissociation (UVPD) spectra of these ions show a n ...

A Decapeptide Hydrated by Two Waters: Conformers Determined by Theory and Validated by Cold Ion Spectroscopy

Natalia Nagornova, Robert Benny Gerber

The intrinsic structures of biomolecules in the gas phase may not reflect their native solution geometries. Microsolvation of the molecules bridges the two environments, enabling a tracking of molecular structural changes upon hydration at the atomistic le ...
