Peak to that peak’s left has one more proton attached, one more charge; ion mass m = M + n + 1, charge z = n + 1.

  • Contents • Introduction to Proteomics and Mass Spectrometry
    Contents • Introduction to Proteomics and Mass spectrometry - What we need to know in our quest to explain life - Fundamental things you need to know about mass spectrometry • Interfaces and ion sources - Electrospray ionization (ESI) - conventional and nanospray - Heated nebulizer atmospheric pressure chemical ionization - Matrix assisted laser desorption • Types of MS analyzers - Magnetic sector - Quadrupole - Time-of-flight - Hybrid - Ion trap In the next step in our quest to explain what is life The human genome project has largely been completed and many other genomes are surrendering to the gene sequencers. However, all this knowledge does not give us the information that is needed to explain how living cells work. To do that, we need to study proteins. In 2002, mass spectrometry has developed to the point where it has the capacity to obtain the "exact" molecular weight of many macromolecules. At the present time, this includes proteins up to 150,000 Da. Proteins of higher molecular weights (up to 500,000 Da) can also be studied by mass spectrometry, but with less accuracy. The paradigm for sequencing of peptides and identification of proteins has changed – because of the availability of the human genome database, peptides can be identified merely by their masses or by partial sequence information, often in minutes, not hours. This new capacity is shifting the emphasis of biomedical research back to the functional aspects of cell biochemistry, the expression of particular sets of genes and their gene products, the proteins of the cell. These are the new goals of the biological scientist: o to know which proteins are expressed in each cell, preferably one cell at a time o to know how these proteins are modified, information that cannot necessarily be deduced from the nucleotide sequence of individual genes.

Current Topics in Organic Chemistry 2003, 15, 1503-1624 1 The Basics of Mass Spectroscopy ! Purpose Mass spectrometers use the difference in mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) of ionized atoms or molecules to separate them. Therefore, mass spectroscopy allows quantitation of atoms or molecules and provides structural information by the identification of distinctive fragmentation patterns. The general operation of a mass spectrometer is: "1. " create gas-phase ions "2. " separate the ions in space or time based on their mass-to-charge ratio "3. " measure the quantity of ions of each mass-to-charge ratio Ionization sources !

Fragmentation of odd electron ions (OE+) generated by electron ionization (EI) was extensively studied in the last few decades, however there are only a few systematic reviews available concerning the fragmentation of even-electron ions (EE+/EE−) produced by the currently most common ionization techniques, electrospray ionization (ESI) and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI). This review summarizes the most important features of tandem mass spectra generated by collision-induced dissociation fragmentation and presents didactic examples for the unexperienced users. Keywords: tandem mass spectrometry; MS/MS fragmentation; collision-induced dissociation; CID; ESI; structure elucidation 1. Introduction Electron ionization (EI), a hard ionization technique, is the method of choice for analyses of small (<1000 Da), nonpolar, volatile compounds. As its name implies, the technique involves ionization by electrons with ~70 eV energy. This energy is high enough to yield very reproducible mass spectra with a large number of fragments. However, these spectra frequently lack the radical type molecular ions (M+) due to the high internal energy transferred to the precursors [1].
