The fragmentation pathways of protonated peptides are reviewed in the present paper
paying special attention to classification of the known fragmentation channels into a simple …

Protein identification and peptide sequencing by tandem mass spectrometry requires
knowledge of how peptides fragment in the gas phase, specifically which bonds are broken …

The most commonly used activation method in the tandem mass spectrometry (MS) of
peptides and proteins is energetic collisions with a neutral target gas. The overall process of …

We performed a large scale study of electron transfer dissociation (ETD) performance, as
compared with ion trap collision-activated dissociation (CAD), for peptides ranging from∼ …

Electron-transfer dissociation (ETD) delivers the unique attributes of electron capture
dissociation to mass spectrometers that utilize radio frequency trap**-type devices (eg …

This review presents a brief historical introduction to the development of tandem mass
spectrometry and its principal applications. It is placed in the context of the general …

Integral membrane proteins (IMPs) lie at the critical junctions between intracellular
compartments and cells and their environment. As such, IMPs are in a unique position to …

Fragmentation at the Xxx-Pro bond was analyzed for a group of peptide mass spectra that
were acquired in a Finnigan ion trap mass spectrometer and were generated from proteins …
