چکیده

Introduction There are many analytical tools, such as X-ray and NMR, to study protein conformation, conformation dynamics and protein-protein interactions. Each method faces different challenges and limitations depending on the protein studied. Recently, hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX) has emerged as a powerful tool to fill the analytical gap1,2,. In this study, a fully automated HDX workflow was developed and optimized.

Probing the non-covalent structure of proteins by amide hydrogen exchange and mass spectrometry.

The rates at which hydrogens located at peptide amide linkages in proteins undergo isotopic exchange when a protein is exposed to D2O depend on whether these amide hydrogens are hydrogen bonded and whether they are accessible to the aqueous solvent. Hence, amide hydrogen exchange rates are a sensitive probe for detecting changes in protein conformation and dynamics. Hydrogen exchange rates in p...

SAIDE: A Semi-Automated Interface for Hydrogen/Deuterium Exchange Mass Spectrometry.

Deuterium/hydrogen exchange in combination with mass spectrometry (DH MS) is a sensitive technique for detection of changes in protein conformation and dynamics. Since temperature, pH and timing control are the key elements for reliable and efficient measurement of hydrogen/deuterium content in proteins and peptides, we have developed a small, semiautomatic interface for deuterium exchange that...

Structural Analyses of a Constitutively Active Mutant of Exchange Protein Directly Activated by cAMP

Exchange proteins directly activated by cAMP (EPACs) are important allosteric regulators of cAMP-mediated signal transduction pathways. To understand the molecular mechanism of EPAC activation, we have combined site-directed mutagenesis, X-ray crystallography, and peptide amide hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (DXMS) to probe the structural and conformational dynamics of EPAC2-F435...

Native State of Complement Protein C3d Analysed via Hydrogen Exchange and Conformational Sampling

Hydrogen/deuterium exchange detected by mass spectrometry (HDXMS) provides valuable information on protein structure and dynamics. Although HDX-MS data is often interpreted using crystal structures, it was suggested that conformational ensembles produced by molecular dynamics simulations yield more accurate interpretations. In this paper, we analyse the complement protein C3d by performing an H...

On-tissue Direct Monitoring of Global Hydrogen/Deuterium Exchange by MALDI Mass Spectrometry: Tissue Deuterium Exchange Mass Spectrometry (TDXMS).

Hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometric (H/DXMS) methods for protein structural analysis are conventionally performed in solution. We present Tissue Deuterium Exchange Mass Spectrometry (TDXMS), a method to directly monitor deuterium uptake on tissue, as a means to better approximate the deuterium exchange behavior of proteins in their native microenvironment. Using this method, a differ...
