Mitochondrial DNA mutation detection by electrospray mass spectrometry.
BACKGROUND Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations cause a large spectrum of clinically important neurodegenerative, neuromuscular, cardiovascular, and endocrine disorders. We describe the novel application of electrospray ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (ESI-FTICR MS) to the rapid and accurate identification of pathogenic mtDNA variants. METHODS In a blinde...
متن کاملMolecular weight determination of plasmid DNA using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.
Ionization and molecular weight (MW) determination of megadalton size plasmid DNA has been achieved using electrospray ionization (ESI) with Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR) mass spectrometry. DNA molecules were shown to remain intact through electrospray ionization by collection on a specially prepared surface, followed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Individual highly charged...
متن کاملDetermination of inorganic improvised explosive device signatures using laser electrospray mass spectrometry detection with offline classification.
The mass spectral detection of low vapor pressure, inorganic-based explosive signatures including ammonium nitrate, chlorate, perchlorate, sugar, and the constituents contained within black powder are reported using laser electrospray mass spectrometry. The ambient pressure mass spectrometry technique combining nonresonant, femtosecond laser vaporization with electrospray postionization reveale...
متن کاملZwitterionic i-motif structures are preserved in DNA negatively charged ions produced by electrospray mass spectrometry.
DNA cytosine-rich strands can fold into an intercalated motif (i-motif) structure. The i-motif is formed by mutually intercalated duplexes containing proton-mediated C-H(+)-C (cytosine-proton-cytosine) base pairs. Negatively charged ions of DNA i-motifs produced by electrospray mass spectrometry are therefore zwitterionic if the base pairing motif is preserved in the gas phase. Here we used IRM...
متن کاملAccurate mass measurement of DNA oligonucleotide ions using high-resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometry.
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) and electrospray ionization (ESI) time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS) play an essential role in the analysis of biological molecules, not only peptides and proteins, but also DNA and RNA. Tandem mass spectrometry used for sequence analysis has been a major focus of technological developments in mass spectrometry, but accurate mass measure...
