Direct ionization of biological tissue for mass spectrometric analysis.
Analysis of biological tissue at a molecular level is of great importance in biological, medical and clinical studies. In this manuscript, we report that both plant and animal tissues can be directly ionized and analyzed by mass spectrometry under ambient conditions. By adding some solvents and applying a high voltage, spray ionization can be induced at the tip of biological tissue and a mass s...
متن کاملMass Spectrometric Immunoassays in Characterization of Clinically Significant Proteoforms
Proteins can exist as multiple proteoforms in vivo, as a result of alternative splicing and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), as well as posttranslational processing. To address their clinical significance in a context of diagnostic information, proteoforms require a more in-depth analysis. Mass spectrometric immunoassays (MSIA) have been devised for studying structural diversity in human...
متن کاملCharacterization of hemoglobin lepore variants by advanced mass-spectrometric procedures.
We describe an analytical protocol for characterizing the molecular structure of hemoglobin (Hb) Lepore variants by using two different mass-spectrometric approaches. The first method consists of direct examination of the chromatographically separated hybrid globins by electro-spray mass spectrometry; the variant Lepore globin is identified through the accurate determination of its molecular ma...
متن کاملMass spectrometric characterization of oligomers in Pseudomonas aeruginosa azurin solutions.
We have employed laser-induced liquid bead ion desorption mass spectroscopy (LILBID MS) to study the solution behavior of Pseudomonas aeruginosa azurin as well as two mutants and corresponding Re-labeled derivatives containing a Re(CO)(3)(4,7-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline)(+) chromophore appended to a surface histidine. LILBID spectra show broad oligomer distributions whose particular patterns d...
متن کاملRapid mass spectrometric determination of disulfide connectivity in peptides and proteins.
Disulfide crosslinks are ubiquitous in natural peptides and proteins, providing rigidity to polypeptide scaffolds. The assignment of disulfide connectivity in multiple crosslinked systems is often difficult to achieve. Here, we show that rapid unambiguous characterisation of disulfide connectivity can be achieved through direct mass spectrometric CID fragmentation of the disulfide intact polype...
