Quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometer modified for higher-energy dissociation reduces protein assemblies to peptide fragments.

The gas-phase dissociation of protein assemblies is becoming crucial for the application of mass spectrometry to structural biology. However certain aspects of the dissociation mechanism remain elusive. Moreover, many protein complexes resist dissociation at the energies accessible with current inst...
