Observation of conserved solution-phase secondary structure in gas-phase tryptic peptides. Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Results from ion mobility studies of tryptic peptides suggest that, in some cases, the gas-phase structures can be related to the solution-phase structure of the parent protein. The interpretation of ion mobility measurements is supported by results from molecular modeling and H/D exchange experiments on the same peptides. This study clearly illustrates the utility of IM-MS for screening complex mixtures for peptides having intrinsically stable secondary/tertiary structures, and/or posttranslational modification.
