Benefits of the Cyclic IMS for HDX/MS Experiments

This large protein assembly is made up of forty-five individual subunits and Mark will discuss the application of Cyclic IMS to hydrogen deuterium exchange studies of complex I in the so called ‘active’ and ‘de-active’ conformations.
The increased ion mobility resolution and MS resolution of the cyclic is allowing Mark and his team to increase peptide coverage of the individual subunits. With improved resolution, they are able to increase the subunit complexity of the systems studied by HDX/MS.
What You Will Discover:
- HDX analysis workflow
- Expanding subunit HDX/MS complexity
- Subunit complexity of bovine mitochondrial complex I.
- Advantages of Cyclic IMS to investigate conformations
