Book Mass Spectrometry of Non Covalent Complexes

Download or read book Mass Spectrometry of Non Covalent Complexes written by Christoph A. Schalley and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-09-08 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Details the many benefits of applying mass spectrometry to supramolecular chemistry Except as a method for the most basic measurements, mass spectrometry (MS) has long been considered incompatible with supramolecular chemistry. Yet, with today's methods, the disconnect between these two fields is not warranted. Mass Spectrometry and Gas-Phase Chemistry of Non-Covalent Complexes provides a convincing look at how modern MS techniques offer supramolecular chemists a powerful investigatory toolset. Bringing the two fields together in an interdisciplinary manner, this reference details the many different topics associated with the study of non-covalent complexes in the gas phase. The text begins with brief introductions to supramolecular chemistry and such relevant mass spectrometric methods as ionization techniques, analyzers, and tandem MS experiments. The coverage continues with: How the analyte's transition into the gas phase changes covalent bonding How limitations and pitfalls in analytical methods may produce data misinterpretations Artificial supramolecular aggregates and their examination Biomolecules, their complexes, and their examination After the general remarks making up the first section of the book, the following sections describe specific experimental procedures and are illustrated with numerous examples and short tutorials. Detailed citations end each chapter. Mass spectrometrists, supramolecular chemists, students in these fields, and interested readers from other disciplines involving the study of non-covalent bonds will all value Mass Spectrometry and Gas-Phase Chemistry of Non-Covalent Complexes as an innovative and practical resource.

Book Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry Analysis of Covalent and Non covalent DNA Complexes

Download or read book Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry Analysis of Covalent and Non covalent DNA Complexes written by Sarah Elizabeth Pierce and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The covalent and non-covalent interactions between DNA and external ligands and between DNA and itself are critical for cellular function. An increased knowledge of these interactions can be used for the development of disease-fighting agents, specifically anti-cancer drugs with improved sensitivity and specificity for tumor cells. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) is useful in the screening and characterization of the interactions involving nucleic acids given the speed and small sample sizes that can be analyzed. In this dissertation, ESI-MS is used to characterize covalent and non-covalent interactions involving DNA to assist in determining how these interactions can lead to better therapeutics. The non-covalent binding of ligands to quadruplex oligonucleotides is discussed first. Pyrrole inosine ligands, which bind to guanine bases, were found to interact with both quadruplexes and with guanine rich oligonucleotides without a quadruplex structure. While those interactions were specific with guanine, novel platinum complexes were found to form specific interactions with quadruplex structures themselves as the size of the ligands matched the size of a guanine quartet. This allowed the ligands to end-stack with quadruplexes with large thymine-rich loops between guanine-rich regions. The non-covalent and covalent interactions between ligands and other DNA structures were also studied. The non-covalent binding of anthracycline ligands to mismatched DNA hairpins was probed. The analysis of solutions of approximately equimolar ligand and oligonucleotide indicated preferential binding to the mismatched sequences. Diazirdinyl benzoquinone crosslinkers, including the clinically studied RH1 and an analogue of RH1, were reacted with a variety of duplex oligonucleotides. The complexes were observed by LC-MS and dissociated using both CID and IRMPD to determine the sites of crosslinking. It was determined that both ligands could form interstrand crosslinks in DNA with 5'-GNC or 5'-GNNC sequences. The RH1 analogue, with a bulky phenyl group, formed fewer crosslinks than RH1. In addition to studying DNA/ligand interactions, the interactions between oligonucleotides were also probed. Oligonucleotides containing non-standard isoguanine repeats were annealed in the presence of various cations to determine how those cations would affect the resulting secondary structures. In most cases, isoguanine containing strands formed pentaplexes rather than quadruplexes, which were observed for strands containing guanine bases.

Book Nanoelectrospray Mass Spectrometry for Molecular Non covalent Interactions and Proteomics

Download or read book Nanoelectrospray Mass Spectrometry for Molecular Non covalent Interactions and Proteomics written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mass spectrometry has become an indispensable tool in biological analysis. Electrospray ionization is an important tool in the study and characterization of non-covalent molecular complexes because it is a soft ionization technique that preserves non-covalent binding stoichiometries. Nanoelectrospray, a miniaturized electrospray with improved ion transfer efficiency, is well-suited for the study of molecular non-covalent interactions. Polyaniline and graphite coated nanoelectrospray emitters, have long lifetimes and are utilized in the nanoelectrospray source coupled with commercial MS for the non-covalent interactions analysis and proteomics. Solution and gas-phase hydrogen/deuterium (H/D) exchange are promising methods in elucidating the solution or gas phase formation of non-covalent complexes. The H/D exchange technique is commonly used to provide insights into the roles of various non-covalent interactions in stabilizing the appropriate three-dimensional (3-D) structural information of solution and gaseous ions, including information on protein. We elucidated the mechanism of disulfide-bond reaction, and the specific role of hydrogen bonds in the formation of the disulfide linkages. This system provides an ideal platform to investigate the evolution of proteins. Additionally, the dual-functional nanoemitters are fabricated by immobilizing the trypsin onto the inner wall of the fused silica capillaries which are utilized as the nanoemitters with polyaniline coating as well. The diluted protein samples can be fast digested on line and are analyzed by the mass spectrometer without desalting. In general, this dissertation demonstrated the development of nanoelectrospray mass spectrometry for molecular non-covalent interactions and proteomics.
