Electron-Transfer Reagent Anion Formation via Electrospray Ionization and Collision-Induced Dissociation

Comprehensive Comparison of Collision Induced Dissociation and Electron Transfer Dissociation

Electron transfer dissociation (ETD) is a recently introduced mass spectrometric technique which has proven to be an excellent tool for the elucidation of labile post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation and O-GlcNAcylation of serine and threonine residues. However, unlike collision induced dissociation (CID), which has been studied for decades, the intricacies of ETD-based fragm...

Confident and sensitive phosphoproteomics using combinations of collision induced dissociation and electron transfer dissociation☆

UNLABELLED We present a workflow using an ETD-optimised version of Mascot Percolator and a modified version of SLoMo (turbo-SLoMo) for analysis of phosphoproteomic data. We have benchmarked this against several database searching algorithms and phosphorylation site localisation tools and show that it offers highly sensitive and confident phosphopeptide identification and site assignment with PS...

Characterization of glycopeptides by combining collision-induced dissociation and electron-transfer dissociation mass spectrometry data.

Structural characterization of a glycopeptide is not easily attained through collision-induced dissociation (CID), due to the extensive fragmentation of glycan moieties and minimal fragmentation of peptide backbones. In this study, we have exploited the potential of electron-transfer dissociation (ETD) as a complementary approach for peptide fragmentation. Model glycoproteins, including ribonuc...

Electron capture, collision-induced, and electron capture-collision induced dissociation in Q-TOF.

Recently, we demonstrated that a radio-frequency-free electromagnetostatic (rf-free EMS) cell could be retrofitted into a triple quad mass spectrometer to allow electron-capture dissociation (ECD) without the aid of cooling gas or phase-specific electron injection into the cell (Voinov et al., Rapid Commun Mass Spectrom 22, 3087-3088, 2008; Voinov et al., Anal Chem 81, 1238-1243, 2009). Subsequ...
