Shotgun ion mobility mass spectrometry sequencing of heparan sulfate saccharides

Ion Mobility Mass Spectrometry

for more complex analysers for automated sample processing and plant control. The separation time will continue to decrease; in the past there has been limited interest in fast separations but this could change as automated sample processing is developed. Increasing use of coupled techniques such as GC-GC, liquid chromatography-GC, and supercritical Suid chromatography-GC for the separation of ...

Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry

Development of atmospheric pressure ionization ion mobility spectrometry and ion mobility spectrometry mass spectrometry

A strategy for rapid sequencing of heparan sulfate and heparin saccharides.

Sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are linear polysaccharides of repeating disaccharide sequences on which are superimposed highly complex and variable patterns of sulfation, especially in heparan sulfate (HS). HS and the structurally related heparin exert important biological functions, primarily by interacting with proteins and regulating their activities. Evidence is accumulating that these ...
