IMS-IMS and IMS-IMS-IMS/MS for separating peptide and protein fragment ions.

Multidimensional ion mobility spectrometry (IMS-IMS and IMS-IMS-IMS) techniques have been combined with mass spectrometry (MS) and investigated as a means of generating and separating peptide and protein fragment ions. When fragments are generated inside a drift tube and then dispersed by IMS prior to MS analysis, it is possible to observe many features that are not apparent from MS analysis al...

The strain-specific modifier Ssm1 is responsible for the straindependent methylation of particular E. coli gpt-containing transgenic sequences.Here,we identifySsm1as theKRAB-zinc finger (ZF) gene 2610305D13Rik located ondistal chromosome4.Ssm1b is amember of a gene family with an unusual array of three ZFs. Ssm1 family members in C57BL/6 (B6) and DBA/2 (D2) mice have various amino acid changes ...

An IMS-IMS analogue of MS-MS.

The development of a new ion mobility/mass spectrometry instrument that incorporates a multifield drift tube/ion funnel design is described. In this instrument, individual components from a mixture of ions can be resolved and selected on the basis of mobility differences prior to collisional activation inside the drift tube. The fragment ions that are produced can be dispersed again in a second...

Improving the efficiency of IMS-IMS by a combing technique.

A simple method for increasing the efficiency of multidimensional ion mobility spectrometry (IMS-IMS) measurements (as defined by the number of two-dimensional data sets necessary to sample all of the ions in a complex mixture) is illustrated. In this approach, components from a packet containing a mixture of ions are introduced into the first IMS drift region where they are separated based on ...
